  1. In case you haven't heard, Iran has pledged to wipe Israel off the map.
    So don't go blaming Israel or anyone else for wanting pre-emptive strikes. If anything should have been learned from past extremists, it is that they tell you what they are going to do if only you'll listen.

    Destroy the planet? You have got to be kidding me.
    If we were to engineer any improvement to the global climate, we would warm it and add CO2. Warmer weather increases the range arable land and CO2 enhances the growth of plants. Warmer weather also enhances economic activity.

  4. Anti-Science - DEMOCRATS??!!!! on Lawmakers Seek Information On Funding For Climate Change Critics · · Score: -1, Troll

    These Democrats are anti-science Luddites. Unless, of course, the science is bought and paid for by them or supports their agendas.
    They would like nothing better than to shut down all discourse that goes against their agenda.

  5. Thanks to Regulation on The Peculiar Economics of Developing New Antibiotics · · Score: 1

    the overhead cost for pharmaceutical development is sky-high. These regs are not only from the FDA, but general business regs like SarbOx as well.
    This is a classic case of liberal statist thinking that business has an unlimited ability to absorb costs..

  9. Just More PS BS on Will Elementary School Teachers Take the Rap For Tech's Diversity Problem? · · Score: 1

    We had to cut down some trees at a nature center I volunteer for. After a tree service dropped them, it was up to the patrons to come out and split all the wood for the fireplaces in the conference centers. 3,000 emails went out asking for volunteers to help, 60% of the membership is female.

    Out of the 3 dozen people that showed up, would anyone care to guess how many were women?

    I'll tell you - ZERO.

    Emails went out to everyone regardless of sex. Some things aren't discrimination, most just boil down to natural differences. Neither good nor bad, just are.

    Check their references and, if they are good, ask yourself how they could have been successful at their previous employment when they couldn't answer your questions. Perhaps your expectations don't match the current reality of the field.

    If Lizzy gets her way, here's how it will play out:
    Lizzy will act all tough and get some really bad laws passed that "punish" Wall Street firms. This will look really great to her idiotic base and she will receive much praise and many votes. Meanwhile, one or two major Wall Street firms who "saw the light" and cooperated with her (i.e. gave her massive campaign contributions) will buy up the competition that couldn't afford to implement her loony regulations or couldn't afford to move to Hong Kong.. The one or two surviving WS firms will collect the clients of the rest of the firms they weren't interested in buying.

    Result: Lessened competition, increased costs to the consumer, massive industry consolidation, more wealth inequality and the exporting of jobs overseas. Industry consolidation leads to fewer high level jobs that pay more. That's how you end up with increased income inequality. For example, if you have 100 firms serving a $100 billion market or 10 firms serving the same market. Which CEOs are going to make more?

    People like Liz need to be tried and led to the gallows.

    That is a physical reality. But as innovation happens and the cost of providing service goes down, you'll get some better alternatives. But I don't see current conditions as any reason to steal tax money from others.

    Of course, those laws need to be rescinded and can be rescinded under the Interstate Commerce Clause.

    But of course too, you know that is not what The Zero is going to do. What he will do is move the lucre further up the chain to the Federal level.

    . It would be lovely if there was $300m for each of these issues, but sadly there isn't...

    That's probably it in a nutshell. What this really boils down to is economic conquest, not any "equality" BS.
    Nobody cares about "minorities" in childcare because there's very little money in childcare. Not that most men would want to work in childcare anyway, most men average on the other side of the "nurturing bell curve" from women.

  21. Another $cam on Intel Pledges $300 Million To Improve Diversity In Tech · · Score: 1

    Diversity is an even bigger scam than AGW.

    Diversity pimps claim on one hand that you need different people, then claim there is no difference between the people. Then there is the faulty logic of what diverse companies look like. They claim that all companies should be x% these, y% those, and z% the others. Is it really more diverse to have 3 companies like that or is it more diverse to have 3 companies that are 100% of each group?
