But how does having Asian CEOs living in America go against that stated definition of a civic society for a country like America whose foundation is immigration and the melding of cultures?
America's culture is that it's a melting pot of cultures. Always has been and always will be. You respect and protect that by allowing other cultures to continue to immigrate and contribute to that culture.
That's unfortunate but I wonder if it's really that uncommon for reporters to give their recurring subjects heads up, perhaps to keep them as future sources. And the paper still reported the news. Contrast that will the selective disclosure we see on the TV news outlets.
Try reversing the question - what about a CEO being Asian would detract from a civic society in America? I asked myself the question and couldn't come up with an answer that didn't lean racist in construction. But I'm open to ideas in case my imagination is limited on the topic...
So according to Steven Bannon we can't have a "civic society" in America if there are areas whose population aren't a majority of whites. I expected a more sophisticated racist euphemism from a Harvard-educated man.
Like the NY Times, WSJ, Washington Post, and LA Times instead of infotainment news sources like CNN, Fox News, and Breitbart. Not to say the newspapers I listed are not without their own institutional bias but at least they have actual investigative journalists on the payroll and at least try to be objective.
And a technology company second. This explains why their engineers are making basic math mistakes in critical business algorithms. Where is the peer review on these? The QA?
Nobody informed about the mechanics of a free market would disagree with you - it's an imperfect system. But as Friedman would say - what's the better alternative?
And in case you don't believe what's written, here it is from Milton's own mouth - discussion at 2:08 into the video, and he comments on taxing pollution at 3:08:
Raising taxes doesn't make it colder out but the system of cap-and-trade (which most call taxes) does create financial incentives/disincentives to account for the environmental cost of using polluting sources of energy. Absent that system, power companies and manufacturers will use the cheapest source of energy they can find, which usually correlates to the most polluting source of energy. For those who think this interferes with the free market, Milton Friedman was a proponent of a cap-and-trade system and he was a staunch supporter of the free market with near-zero governmental interference.
Phone would randomly shutdown even though battery was 40%+ per the iOS UI. If I then tried to power it back up I would get the big charging icon, implying that the battery was completely drained. If I then charged the battery for just 5 minutes the phone would work fine and allow the battery to be discharged from its previously indicated 40%+ as expected. Based on my observations it appeared to be an intermittent problem with the power gauge firmware mistakenly detecting the battery as depleted and engaging the Li-Ion full-discharge protection logic as a result.
I brought mine to the Genius bar and of course all their battery diagnostics showed nothing wrong. Took three return attempts before they finally agreed to replace my phone even though it was still under warranty. This guy wasn't as persistent as me:
I don't disagree with anything you wrote. I only made the point about the popular vote in the context of how difficult it is to call a close election when more people voted for the candidate who lost.
There's a difference between being wrong and intentionally publishing fake and misleading information. Plus the fact that Hillary won the popular vote (by +650K votes and still counting) just demonstrateshow hard it is to call an election when there are several swing-state votes in the electoral college.
Comparative advantage is always useful because it assures the most productive use of the factors of production. Putting a bunch of workers who are not as efficient to a task doesn't benefit anyone including the workers themselves.

What is your interpretation of what Bannon meant by a "civic society" in the context in which he said it?
That's unfortunate but I wonder if it's really that uncommon for reporters to give their recurring subjects heads up, perhaps to keep them as future sources. And the paper still reported the news. Contrast that will the selective disclosure we see on the TV news outlets.

Because the smog in china is produced by the burning of fossil fuels, which also produces CO2.
When you live in a country that's so polluted you can't see your own hand in front of you.

Hate to be snarky but is it really news that a temporary offer on discounted internet service is no longer available?

Salt is an essential mineral that's necessary for life but eat 47 teaspoons of it at one sitting and see if you wake up the next day.
As for carbon dioxide not being a pollutant, Milton just happened to have addressed that as well:

Yep, I thought so to and tried that. Didn't resolve the issue.

Reminds me of Steven Colbert's brilliant Correspondents' Dinner performance, which included gems like "Reality has a well-known liberal bias".
