  1. Socialism by any other name always fails. on Slashdot Asks: Which is Better, a Basic Income or a Guaranteed Job? (timharford.com) · · Score: 1, Insightful

    Point somewhere, anywhere, where a guaranteed job or income has worked. The answer is nowhere. There is always a difference between a hand out and a hand up. The Socialists want you to believe they are the same thing because it makes them feel good to do so.

  2. -- Right out of Saul Alinsky's rules for radicals on Fake News Sharing In US Is a Rightwing Thing, Says Oxford Study (theguardian.com) · · Score: 1

    This is right out of Saul Alinsky's rules for radicals - Clearly the left has the lions share of fake news with the main stream media - including subbies article. 11) If you push a negative hard and deep enough it will break through into its counterside. The winner in politics is almost always whoever is on offense. Liberals understand this in an intuitive way that most conservatives don't. We think because we have this wonderful, honest, logical response to a charge that we're scoring major points -- but, except in rare cases, it's not true. If you're spending all of your time refuting the charges that you're extreme, racist, hate women, and despise the poor -- you're losing. That's because some people will assume where there's smoke, there's fire, and disbelieve you no matter how good your explanation may be. Additionally, if you're busy defending yourself, you can't go after the other side. Defend when you absolutely have to, but make sure most of your time is spent attacking relentlessly attacking.

  3. You actually just demonstrated why the LEFT is often so gullible. Anything that contradicts your established view is written off as a conspiracy by your enemies, no matter how outlandish and divorced from reality that conspiracy theory is.

  4. I am not shocked on The CIA Built a Fake Software Update System To Spy On Intel Partners (theverge.com) · · Score: 3, Interesting

    I am not shocked. Trusting the government is like trusting the scorpion on your back while swimming across the river.

  5. Scientific American is Liberal on 'Science Must Clean Up Its Act' (scientificamerican.com) · · Score: 1

    Scientific American is Liberal in nature and about as closed minded and one sided as it gets. It is no longer a tome of science but a tool for the Left and only the left.

  6. This is in part fake news.

  7. This is You Tube's Fault on Still More Advertisers Pull Google Ads Over YouTube Hate Videos (morningstar.com) · · Score: 1

    This is You Tube's fault. When an advertiser comes to them they should ask "what do you want your advertising to be applied to?" instead You Tube gets greedy and shows the advertising on everything under the sun and then blame the You Tube videos and then top it off by calling obviously non hateful videos hateful and screwing them. How bad of a business model is that!

  8. AT&T Lost My Business on AT&T Is Boosting Data Plans, Dropping Overage Fees (reuters.com) · · Score: 1

    From 2004 to today I have been using AT&T for my off site instrumentation systems upgrading when needed. I have hundreds of systems. Over the last 6 years they have been gouging customers, including my company, in overages, very poor service, and over charges. In fact we are asking for around $20,000 in over payments to be returned to us. After submitting all the obvious documentation showing their errors over time, they stopped working with us and have started to ignore us. Now I have a lawyer doing all the talking. Since 2015 we have moved most of our equipment over to Verizon with absolutely wonderful results. Even the on line abilities to manage our account of hundreds of units is a dream. AT&T has severe operational and system problems. Too bad, I thought they were awesome until around 2012, now I can't stand them.
