    Do you support the anti-Israel protests around the country?

    Steelers Wheel: A state which does not give a damn about how many innocent people it kills in pursuit of either revenge or state policy is a state well worth protesting against, boycotting, sanctioning against and disinvesting from. It's a fine line between Meyer Lansky, Meir Kahane and...

    Do you support the anti-Israel protests around the country?

    Steeler Wheel: I think the bolded part of your post above is the reason that so many are protesting against the actions of the State of Israel in Gaza. The price to civilians is too high and the violence is too broad because it does not discriminate well enough between combatant and...

    Is Trump a psychopath?

    @Allan I am not a trained psychologist or psychiatrist, but in my lay-person opinion I think he very likely is. Be well and be safe. Evilroddy.

    Do you support the anti-Israel protests around the country?

    I support the right of people to protest bad policies of their own or foreign governments which they believe to be wrong or immoral. I do not support extremists who attend such protests and incite imminent fear of violence into or cause actual violence to protesters or bystanders because of who...

    Two views of economics

    Torus34: While what you say may be true in certain facets of the discipline of Economics, the problem of the underpinning assumptions badly distorting the discipline still stands. still remains. Core assumptions like diminishing marginal utility, models of supply and demand, and indeed the...

    Two views of economics

    Economics is not a science nor is it an art. Economics is graph-pom-pom waving cheerleading for both the good and the bad which MBAs do in this real world Economists downplay the harms of business and boost the good it does while business schools teach the real nuts and bolts of business (and...

    Israel strikes Iran tonight.

    Apocalypse: Your bubble-universe defies a wider reality and thus I cannot build a bridge which spans across the bubble-chasm. There is no point in debating you here. I will civilly ignore you, even while continuing to read your future posts, but rather than argue with you I will not respond as...

    Russia is using their Ukraine invasion to impose an authoritarian will globally & is cultivating Republican support to dermine our effort to stop them

    cut for word count. jbb: The Republican Party is not a conceptual monolith which has one POV and only one view on Russia and the Russian-Ukraine conflict. There are potential authoritarians in the Republican Party (as there are in the Democratic Party) and there are those who oppose them in...

    Israel strikes Iran tonight.

    Apocalypse: The Cambridge Dictionary definition of "defence/defense" is, "the ability to protect against attack or harm, or something used to protect against attack or harm.' What the State of Israel has been doing in Gaza and the West Bank since 1967 is offensive and military occupation and...

    Israel strikes Iran tonight.

    The State of Israel is rapidly becoming a rogue military power just as it rightly claims that Iran has become. Depending on the severity of the Israeli strike(s?) on Iran, the sky over Israel might soon fill with tens of thousands of rockets, missiles and drones from Iran, Yemen, Syria and...

    Putin says that Ukraine is no country of its own

    Alas, Russian missiles, drones, aircraft, artillery and other land forces may be able to unilaterally determine Ukraine's fate if the Western powers don't get their shit together and fully supply Ukraine with the weapons and munitions it needs to defend itself and to push back against the...
