  1. That is like saying that you will only believe that gun sales are up if the murder rate goes up as well.
  2. Only when the economics compelled us. The US power Grid is a fine example of the opposite IMO. When fully privatized and without regulation, power was only available in urban areas. It wasn't until after the great depression and with heavy regulation that the current grid formed. It wasn't until the government picked the winners and loser and allowed them to form a monopoly that the "economics compelled".
  3. They are concerned about that. It is that concern that has people like Rush screaming how her right to free speech is being violated. I agree. But some of it is common sense. Walking into some parts of most cities alone at night in a KKK outfit is going to have consequences. That isn't right, but telling somebody the risks and not helping them is not a violation of rights. Actually most would likely say that is common sense. The fact that Ann Coulter has this reaction shows that she has been free to be as divisive as she wants to be. What crimes have been committed in relation to Ann Coulter and the university?
  4. You mean like how the right reacted to the ranchers? You mean consistent like that? Or maybe how Republicans feel about Russia? You mean consistency like that? Or how about the consistency of family values, anti gay republicans get caught sucking dick, having affairs or hosting pedophiles at the white house? Yeah makes perfect sense for somebody on the right to complain about those on the left not being consistent. And please do explain exactly which one of Ann Coulter's rights are being violated?
  5. Speaking at a university isn't speaking publicly. Nobody is stopping Ann Coulter from reaching billions on the internet, or to stand on a corner and preach to the locals. Arguments from the righties on here seem similar to the case made by lefties re: "the gay wedding cake", ...i.e., the gay couple's civil rights were violated by the baker (a private enterprise) who refused to bake their wedding cake. Of course, the couple had many other options for getting their cake made and were not prohibited from exercising one of those options. So ...In this case, Coulter's rights are seemingly being violated by the school (a public institution) making it difficult for the students who invited her to meet certain "requirements" which might be unreasonable or unnecessary, and not required, for some other "acceptable" speaker. The argument from the left is that she could just pack up and go speak somewhere else. Therefore, no rights violated. Coulter's rights are not being violated. The baker was breaking the law. Indeed a very clear comparison.
  6. Apparently there is even a law that says speaking does not stop freedom of speech. Thankfully those libtards haven't found a way to take that law away yet!
  7. And how exactly does this "stop freedom of speech"? To chutem, violent protest is always a concern, regardless of the reason behind it. Like when ranchers put snipers in place to take aim at federal officers, that is a concern. You guys have created a violent society, too late to complain about the violence IMHO.
  8. And one scientist saying it is bad for humans and other scientists saying it is just fine for humans. And some contributions to Trump.
  9. Yeah, you may want to read the link.
  10. I am sure the free market principle will ensure that people won't eat food with these pesticides on them.... http://www.vanityfair.com/news/2017/04/dow-chemical-endangered-species

  12. I'm sure we all realize that economic viability has other factors than instantaneous cash value. Do we wait until fossil fuels are gone before developing other forms of energy? Do we keep sending soldiers to get killed and pumping money into keeping regions stable so we get a good deal on their fuel? And YES, do we factor the environmental impact of energy production. Energy subsidies are just one of many types that help to stabilize our own economy whether it be food production or all forms of energy. We don't live in some sort of economocracy where the only thing that matters is an the bottom line at the end of the month. We're humans with brains and know that there is a future to plan for in which we need to have technology to power our lives in a world that's safe to live in. Nuh hu, I've been told free market and capitalism is best. Plus we need to run the country like a company...yeah. What are you? Some kind of communist?
  13. Billy losing it https://youtu.be/fXZj4Wy58Pk
  14. Smart move by Glenn Beck. Convince the mindless idiots that only he can give them the truth as long as they pay their monthly dues of course.
  15. This quote is so dead on and so evident at the moment.
  16. If he had a sense of humour he would offer Ivanka some trademarks....
  17. "I have always said climate changes." "There's only one problem with climate change - it ended in 1998!" "back to the name change to cause confusion tactic."
  18. If I cared what you thought your post might have a piss squirt worth of meaning, but it doesn't. Probably linked from Drudge or something like that. But in any event, please, carry on
  19. You mean to tell me that you don't know the main players behind the websites you parrot? That is even dumber than I thought.
  20. He will be ok with Alex Jones lying to get custody of his children and refuse to believe it is all an act on the show.
  21. Uhm, no I didn't. This was my post: Car or automobile isn't even close to being mentioned. IOW you could not be more wrong. Who wrote, "But even in the car industry you see this dumbbell effect. With luxury and cheap doing well and the middle struggling"? I wrote that after somebody else brought up the car industry as an example against my statement of bifurcation in the retail industry. Try and read those words carefully and try and figure out how that means I didn't bring up cars as an example to support my statement.

  23. I thought declared was the weasel word? Now that you have figured out what that words means, you have other objections? I think that whatever the response is, you will find another objection, simply because your mind was made up long before any rational thought or discussion happened.
