The lack of comprehensive statistics was no doubt to hide the fact that crime had virtually disappeared in the Soviet Union? What nonsense.
How ignorant does a person need to be in order to support creation of a system which has been demonstrated to create lines of people waiting for bread that nobody has any economic incentive to create?
The coming failure of the U.S. economy will be caused by the failed socialist policies of our government, including the socialist lending practices encouraged by the government, and the unmanageable debt created by Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, and Obamacare.
Fixed it.
I owned several before an unfortunate boating accident.
I wonder how many gun owners view it as an obligation to be able to arm less prepared friends and relatives in a time of national emergency?
I see that the national emergency in Egypt has resulted in a shutdown of the internet and cell-phone systems. How convenient for the central government to have a monopoly on communication technology at such a time.
Probably the same mechanism can be used here in the U.S. to, no doubt, "insure domestic tranquility and provide for the common" defenselessness. All very Constitutional, you see.
I hear a lot of them are at the bottom of a lake somewhere
As Glenn Beck says, they view themselves as the ranchers, and we are the cows. It’s their job to take care of us, in spite of our stupid wishes. And of course the rules that apply to cows don’t apply to the ranchers.
Yeah—I’ve lost a few there, too—darned boat overturned one day.....
WTF?
What did they consider genius level? A 135+ IQ? The thing is, you look at those who are autistic, and they are genius at something, whether it be music or math or what have you, but then they obviously have their problems. Not to say that all of those classified as genius are autistic, but there are different types of geniuses.
Here's a call-out from the article:
The preponderance of psychological evidence indicates that EXPERTS ARE MADE NOT BORN.
Emphasis is theirs.
Lysenkoism is alive and well at Scientific American.
[If I were stupid enough to decide what’s true by what I like, socialism would be at the BOTTOM of the list.]
But folks like this liar believe they will somehow be above the fray when socialism kicks in, and because they are soooo much smarter than anyone else, temples will be built to them.
Like with what is considered art today, though that may have to do with one of the Commie/Marxist planks to completely eradicate what was once thought of as art and replace it with mindless, nonsensical shapes.
good for you, I haven’t had one to cancel.
I’m sure I’m not the only one who really really misses Sci
Am as it was. Surely with all the college students, grad
students etc. a site could be set up to host review articles
for laymen of a similar quality, with print-ready versions.
I cannot be the only one who has thought of this.
I began subscribing to SciAm in the early 60s. The articles were excellent and really made you think. Some of my work got included in a couple of articles. I dropped my subscription after about 30 years as I just couldn’t take the change in content from science to propaganda. I’m sure it’s far worse now.
