Forgive me, as it was a long time ago, but in my 11th grade year I had, for some period of time a teacher named Mr. Souder (forgive the spelling too!). He was a way leftie, as I recall his area of research; how labor unions prevented a socialist revolution from happening in the [...]

I copy this directly from the pages of WikiPedia:
Reinforcing the relative decline in U.S. power and the dissatisfaction of Europe and Japan with the system was the continuing decline of the dollar—the foundation that had underpinned the post-1945 global trading system. The Vietnam War and the refusal of the administration of U.S. President [...]

I have an RSS feed to my desktop of newly published Rand reports. I tend to read the summaries instead of the long studies, as even a student of the world doesn’t need to know the detail invovled in 700 pages treatises on a particular subject.
The report cited in the title, War by [...]

6660|100Thank you Frederick Douglass for reminding me of this from the grave, as tiled into the side of a work center near the Port Authority Bus Terminal in NYC. I walked past this building about a week ago and have been rolling around this phrase in my head since.

I listen to a podcast called The War on Democracy and today they were talking about this movie on Google Video. You simple must see it. Now that the election cycle is drawing near, expect more “WAKE THE FUCK UP AMERICA!” type posts.

Our own good old American ineptitude is! All you have to do is look at how our infrastructure is crumbling around us:
Huge steam pipe bursts in Manhattan ConEd has constant power distribution issues Water pipes are over taxed Bridges are falling down

Short and direct:
Fossil fuels are bad for us, bad for the fish, bad for the GWOT.
We need to reduce our dependency on them.
We also have a labor/farm/immigration issue here in the US of A.

Did you hear about this one? Where a college student created a boarding pass generator that could be used to create a boarding pass whereby you could gain entry to the secure area of the terminal. Perfect! You might be thinking, wow , that is a smart kid! Oh, if only there were new [...]

He has been all over the news lately with his new book and the news of NJ continuing on its mach as one of the most socially progressive states in this backward [...]
