[quote]I think its a bloody big bet to be making for our children, that everything is ok with the amount of CO2 we put in the environment because it is having no real effect. I don't think anyone here is actually going to change anyones mind, for every pro article there is a negative article, for every pro article there is the point that climate data not supporting climate change has been ignored and for every negative article there are adgenda's (eg big oil donation to climate skeptic groups

Moderateman: How is it stupid to point out the obvious - don't piss on the host. That's the whole point. This blog site isn't some sort of government service. It's private property. Brad lets us use this site. We don't know his motives for letting us do it but common says not to shit on him.

The countries with the most economic freedom are usually the wealthiest. High taxation is one quick way to decrease economic freedom. I am not sure what is "right wing" about South American dictatorships.

[quote]What a guy. I did the same with my company. Its what people who actually create something do on hard times. So? I admire Brad for this behavior. It was the right thing to do. But being a leader actually requires him to rise above himself. Something he failed to do in this case. His ego got in the way. As to gaming: I love educational games, my grandchildren love noggin.com, etc. but I really do not think that its a large market sh

Unfortunately, many things fall into the category of "making useless things that people want" thereby wasting valuable resoucres for nothing useful at all. I

[quote who="Cikomyr" comment="25"] The EU is much poorer than the US. That's what socialism gets you. I'd say the US are much richer than the EU. That's what a new land filled with natural ressources and one of the lower person/km2 of the non-nordic nation in the world gives you. It's not capitalism that made the US rich, it's its natural advantages! [/quote] LOL. That must be way Brazil and Russia are such juggernauts. Oh wait.

[quote] It says, according to the IMF, the European Union is making 18, 439 billion dollars GDP Or rather, 18.4 trillion dollars GDP, compared to the US's 13.8 GDP. Whereas in the right hand corner the EU article states it is 13.06 trillion GDP, though this statistic is from 2006 rather than 2008. So perhaps it is a bit more fuzzy than you say. Regardless, it is clear that even if the 2006 statistic is true, the US is hardly the sole "backbone" of the world's economy when the EU is easily riv

[quote who="NHeerDesign" comment="6"]"Obama's a socialist, let's be real" This is why I'm not a fan of taking political insight from anyone on the right. As soon as someone says the word "collective" or "together", they're immediately labelled a socialist. Let me make something very clear: Marx was a socialist. Obama is not, by any stretch, a socialist. You took one comment that he said and moved him from slightly right-of-centre on the political scale to Lenin territory. I have not h

[quote]Yes, that is the definition of the role of a US Senator. Overall I'm just thrilled that even conservatives are now starting to become concerned about the division of power between the different branches of government, and are making distinctions about the different roles of Legislature and Executive. I take it that the "unitary executive" theory is no longer in vogue?[/quote] Whoo hoo. I just love it when the moonbats true colors come out. Now conservatives are dumb
