Just in case we forgot that the US still refuses to comply with a 2005 WTO
ruling. This action has cost Antigua close to USD3.5bn
After many, many years and the destruction of this industry in Antigua, a
tiny island that depended heavily on this revenue, Caricom is making a
statement.

Krauthamer is a hack. He is not a scientist, and gets the most basic

On Mon,
So Adam Smith, the writer of An Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of
the Wealth of Nations, and originator of the idea of Free Enterprise,
is a Communist? Wow given that he lived well before Marx and Engels
that's pretty impressive.
Yeah, we know you don't like him, probably because he has a phd or he's in
a wheelchair or something.
Anyway, what did you think of his comment about scientific consensus?
Like say, this tidbit:
The debate is settled, asserted propagandist in chief Barack Obama in
his latest State of the Union
Would you prefer that there is consensus on Global Warming?
Because that's all that is needed to act.
We are still investigating Gravity, but the fact that it exists is pretty
much settled...sorry...there is consensus that it exists.
Playing with words doesn't alter that.
He sounds like a paid

I believe that there have been times when our country has been more
capitalist and less capitalist. Capitalism

The origin of the word âcapitalistâ is of much earlier vintage: in French,
A. R. J. Turgot (1727-1781) used âcapitalisteâ in his essay, âReflection
on
the Formation and Distribution of Wealthâ (1769-1770), and WilliamGodwin

Your pendulum description is right on with what I think about American
politics, only instead of slowing down and eventually settling in the
middle it accelerates with each swing.
I'm afraid we've gone to far towards democracy, given up too much, to go
back peacefully now. But then again, maybe
Too far towards democracy? Could you explain what you mean there? It feels
like we are continuously headed toward plutocracy (Citizens United and the
like just codified it) rather than democracy, but perhaps I misunderstand
what you are trying to say.
Cheers,

I mean legislating in fear towards security, even in violations of the
principals of this country and doing so because of popular support, or
at least apathy.
Citizens United is a perfect example of Democracy over Republicanism to my mind.

Gravity has been tested and in most cases it's proven. AGW has never been
successfully tested. As for consensus, you can't just say scientist think
something might be so and call it settled science. That goes against the
scientific method. But you know that.

Gotcha. I wouldn't call it Democracy, myself, but I get where you are

of Judiciary, which is definitely not a Democratic institution, even if one
is vital to a Republic or a Democracy.
