Ancient Legend has the name of the first king of Mauretania (the region the Richat Structure) as King Atlas...hmmm
"Good ideas do not require force"
Not original with me, just cannot remember who 🤔
A scientist that uses consensus as part of their argument, is more than likely trying to sell you something fake.
So Francis Collins former head of NIH admits they were wrong about Covid risk response and thought nothing of the risks those mandates would have.
This is the guy used the power of the government to ridicule, censor, cause to lose job of anyone who disagreed with him and Fauci. Such as Jay Bhattacharya and those of the Great Barrington Declaration
"If all this seems counterintuitive, it’s because we are taught that governments only intervene in their economies for the good of the general public, whereas in truth governments often intervene on behalf of special interests, or for the sake of lining their own coffers."
~ George Selgin
"Bank-provided down payment, no closing-cost mortgage advances efforts to broaden access to homeownership and adds to its existing $15 billion Community Homeownership Commitment"
Isn't this practice...that is bank provided down-payment, etc what led to 2008 crisis?
If a bank wants to do this fine, provided the State does not bail out the bank or those getting the loan
The below is from Liam McCollum on twitter:
"Libertarianism should not be construed as a “do what thou wilt” philosophy. It should be a “you shall not aggress upon another” philosophy.
It is not a philosophy of tolerance toward all non-violent behavior. Rather, it is a philosophy of intolerance toward unjust violence.
To the extent things should not be tolerated, libertarianism says that only those things that are mutually intolerable and unjustly violent can properly be met with violence. Every other intolerable thing should be resisted by other means.
Neither should it be construed as a philosophy opposed to all authority. It is opposed to all illegitimate authority achieved through aggression.
Therefore, it is entirely consistent for a libertarian to submit to, seek, or respect authority, etc., as long as it is natural.
Libertarianism is not an egalitarian philosophy that opposes all social values, all structures, all hierarchies, all authority, or all religions.
Properly understood, it is a legal theory that seeks to abolish aggression from society."

Good. When you start working in your credentialed field, you quickly learn, credentials do not mean much.

Well it good to see the modern smart people finally catch up to what we knew 80+ years ago.

"Preserving democracy is more important than whatever voters may want."

"One reason that propaganda often works better on the educated than on the uneducated is that educated people read more, so they receive more propaganda. Another is that they have jobs in management, media, and academia and therefore work in some capacity as agents of the propaganda system—and they believe what the system expects them to believe. By and large, they’re part of the privileged elite, and share the interests and perceptions of those in power."

There are too many specialists, we need more generalists.
The House is trying to attach this bill to the annual military reauthorization bill (which is popular and sure to pass)
So the House of Representatives are attaching the FISA Reform to a popular annual military reauthorization bill
The economy is not a machine to be commanded.
