    Well if you have a whey allergy or lactose intolerance...

    Ah yes, it's the left again - a 'broken system' aka constitutional government. Tyranny - it's what they crave.

    Perhaps they'll simply return to their roots and put their electorates in re-education camps?

    Unfortunately, there's the issue right there. Academia, the most toxic workplace in America.

  5. I am HARDLY a Democrat. But it is ALSO true that Republicans have been voting for this shit, too.

    I think so. Or is it transitioning to "You own nothing but you rent everything" - aka you're ALWAYS paying for a 'subscription fee' for something?

    No. "Socialism" is government owning the means of production. Roads, fire departments, and police departments do not produce goods though they do provide services.

    It's called the electoral college, so h-holes like California and New York do not dictate their horror to the rest of us.

    Some of us have redneck trucks that are gas versions. They work better in the climate where we live!

    Not to mention the fact that carriers have reduced subsidies. Paying $700 versus $199 is quite different.

    You could have fooled me. If there isn't an under class, who can they claim to champion?

  12. And what about the deaths and injuries that electricity prevents?

  13. My understanding is my state collects taxes per tonne on the current spot price of the resource (coal, oil, gas, etc.). A company can claim anything but tax collectors typically aren't that stupid.

  14. Your point regarding cattle is well taken. I was merely considering cattle. Interestingly enough since chickens and pigs eat food items that humans don't (aka 'chicken food' is often made from items in agriculture that do not become part of the food chain for humans) it still isn't clear to me that your claim is valid - or is it that we're reducing wasted consumable items that humans don't eat?

  15. They're not asking for your subsidy. They want to keep their jobs.

  16. It was presumed to be nuclear, because there were shadows of the children playing ball on the charred side wall of the house.

  17. Why do you think Bill Gates et al has been saying that overpopulation is the species' biggest problem? It isn't because he lives an incredibly lavish lifestyle!

  18. Wildlife DO occupy the space. You MUST be an urban person -- those of us who actually live in the great empty between NY and LA really do know what we're doing. Remember, if humans weren't here we'd have continuous grass fires.

  19. And again, I don't see your point; for most of the years, the animals eat grass. Humans do not eat grass.

  20. Unless, of course, they lost their health cover because the rise in premiums required by Obamacare meant their employer no longer provided health cover.

  21. Ah, an elitist liberal hypocrite again. They're worried about losing their MEANS OF MAKING A LIVING. Go drown yourself in a latte please.

  22. My state has an excise tax of >20% IIRC for resource extraction. What state pays less than a penny per tonne?

    I don't think an LNG pipeline would be an issue -- remember, it boils away.

  24. Which is 700 more than they would have. The 700m is NOT just for the jobs - it's for the PLANT.

  25. Um, it wasn't W that changed it this, it was his dad.
