    My goodness, I've never seen a better advo for misogyny and denying of women's rights in the electoral process than this video of this insane woman. These people will be the end of Western Civilization, no doubt.

    For example, instead of just briefly mentioning a list of tax hikes or the seemingly pointless purchase of fighter jets - which are two of the more problematic items, IMO - they could have made an effort to determine if those actions were actually instigated by Milei himself, or whether they are things he had to accede to as part of his agreement with the coalition partners (Bullrich, Obaid, et al.) whose support he needed in order to win the election (and will continue needing in order to enact other policies). In either case, they are bad things and deserve to be criticized, but as I've pointed out several times in this thread, Milei is not the OmniGod of Argentina - he was always definitely going to have to enact at least some unlibertarian policies, regardless of whether he really wanted to or not (not possibly, not probably, but definitely). In assessing and judging Milei, it makes a difference whether he "wanted to" or "had to". Reason could have helpfully tried to sort that out, but instead they just went "bitch mode" . The nature of politics - and especially electoral politics - is that you can easily do that with anyone. If Ron Paul had become POTUS, Reason could have written exactly the same kind of article about him - "Oh, look, he appointed his less-than-honorable grandson-in-law Jesse Benton as his Chief of Staff! Nepotism!" - "Oh, look, those newsletters! Racism!" - "Oh, look, the military spent more money on planes! All that 'non-interventionism' stuff must have been bullshit, after all!" - and so on. I suspect this has much more to do with Reason's social libertinism vis-à-vis Milei's social conservatism than it has to do with actual libertarian principles. (Hence, their complaints about "gender issues" and Milei being a "pro-lifer"). In the case of Milei (or Ron Paul), was that money offset by greater spending reductions elsewhere? Maybe. Maybe not. If not, was it by choice or political necessity? Who knows? Reason couldn't (or wouldn't) be bothered to try to find out and tell us.

    Seems to be what they want. Except we've been too civilized to do it, so they imported foreign criminals and stuck them in the ghettos. There are some serious ruthless people behind these two puppets. Our Quadrennio Rosso. Italy had two red years -- the Biennio Rosso -- and installed Mussolini.

    Some minor delays, but not the End of America the World as Biden would have you believe . GM, Ford will reroute Baltimore shipments after bridge collapse "There are a lot of other areas that can pick up the slack like the New York Harbor and all the way down to Savannah, Georgia", he said in an email. "It will take a while for the situation to resolve and to begin operating normally again, so definitely there will be delays in deliveries of goods."

    My guy, you are perfectly free to leave. But if you're going to stick around, how about not hustling stuff that happened 170 years ago? It's getting old... and if you keep drudging up that sh!t as an excuse to keep everyone else around you quiet and compliant, that's going to expire shortly, and you aren't going to like the result. We were doing just fine in this country 30 years ago. We all got along, we all hung out and partied together and nobody f**king cared who was what "color". But all of a sudden we're mired in damned near the worst racial division in this country now since the '60's, if not earlier. And it's stupid, because it really is plainly just a political tactic mostly of the left but even to a certain extent of the right. There are 3 options here: 1 - we can go back to ignoring race like we had finally gotten to in the '90's; 2 - we can continue on this current path of making race the essence of every single issue in our political discourse and just see how that goes; or 3 - it's going to come down to a fight... and that's not an option that 13% of the population should want to toy with...

    Yes, there are, which is why that was never a "dark ship" option in the oilfield. Here's a chart of the area, clearly showing cables and pipelines. The ship was traveling at about one shiplength per minute. You see the scale on this chart at 375 per inch. The event started at roughly 4:11, so that means the ship traveled roughly 3300 feet, over half a mile before impact, and at least a couple thousand feet before the submerged cable lines. Not out of the question to drop anchor at that point and it is standard procedure.

    The definition of "Master Mariner" is one who holds both a Master's certificate and a Chief Engineer's certificate. I do...or at least did, until IMO regs prohibited it on international tickets.

    Pretty much what I said from day one. This ship suffered a severe electric failure. Twice, you see when the main power cuts out, shortly after they start backing down on the main engine, indicated by the heavy black smoke, and then again a second time as the e-gen kicks on, shortly, and then cuts back out again. Somewhere I am going to guess there was direct short to ground in the main buss panel or parallel buss panel, that just smoked the whole system. There was little, if anything, the captain, pilot or crew could have done, they were dark and out of control.

    Yeah, stuff like that, I don't pay attention to. I see your point though; discerning libertarians/anarchists see past all of that and cut right to the matter, but others, not so much, which can pollute the mind.

    They have a few - but unfortunately, instead of actually providing any substantive examination of those few points, they only mention those points in passing so they can spend the vast majority of the article indulging in innuendo and other nonsense like griping about his dogs (or bizarrely complaining that army officers can't get tattoos, paint their nails, or grow beards).

    Reason has very valid and concerning points. The important thing is, though Javier is doing a great job so far , one should never rely or count on a leader no matter how well intentioned. Hopefully Javier provided a kickstart and the people will keep the momentum going with or without him. Keep the conversations going, never let your guard down, and hold them accountable.

    :D I'm with you. Just thought it was funny. My point with conspiracy theories has always been that it isn't the conclusions that they draw that's important as much as it is that people don't trust the institutions which is why we have to question everything.

    Ron Paul Institute by James Bovard Mar 28, 2024 Last December, one of the most intrusive provisions in the federal statute book was set to expire. Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) authorizes the National Security Agency to vacuum up trillions of emails and other data. A bevy of bipartisan members of Congress called for radically curtailing those nullifications of Americans’ privacy.
