    Lots of spew, but where is your support for your claims?
    Like I said, your claims are meaningless without verification
    Pure anecdote without support.
    Stop whining, produce evidence.

    I did not claim hearsay.
    I said anecdotal, as in, NO WITNESSES
    Pardon if I note that this is always the tactic of the losing side positing evidence that does not exist
    How are your claims more valid than the Alien Abduction Victims Speak herd?
    Not in any way at all

    How do you spot pseudoscience?
    A reliance on anecdotal evidence with zero backing.
    Seems to be modus viviendi for sexist thugs with a "right" to sex.

    There will be mass layoffs with demands on the remaining truckers to be every bit as cheap as the machines.

    Hiring and firing are always done on news of the future.
    This is why we still have coal miners...their lives are cheaper than the machines to replace them.

    Actually, had you bothered to read the DOL article, you would know your premise is false, rises in minimum wage do NOT cause long term rise in unemployment.
    How about those ugly facts? Really put a damper on Austrian School dropouts.

    So, in fact, your "source" has no academic credentials at all, is an opinion outlet, paid for by the Ayn Randians who surrounded Alan Greenspan, architect of at least 3 economic crashes.

    I can only guess the Kirk Sorensen zombies never bothered to read a single paper on Neutron Adsorption and 232-U.
    No Thorium reactor without 235-U can be built, unless 2H-3H loss fusion provides the neutrons that will be adsorbed (25%+ depending on design) by said isotope. Thus, NONE self-sustaining supercritical chain reactions have or will occur with 232-Th feedstock only.

    A Hydrogen powered economy cannot exist without hydrocarbon/Organic reduction
