"I thought we were supposed to be borrowing and spending more to “stimulate the economy.” Now we find that the Secretary of the Treasury of the United States of America, the very man who’s urging us to do just that isn’t doing his share….he’s flying coach. What a selfish bastard, when he could be “stimulating” the airlines by flying first class." - tomgpalmer.com

Seriously?
Today Office of International Affairs at GMU gave a seminar called "Dating in US". It was obligatory for all international students. How weird dating in America can be that they have to teach this??

"Like all extortion, taxation is difficult to fight. Furthermore, in the case of taxation the very people on whom we call to resist criminal extortion are the enthusiastic, loyal extortionists." - Tibor Manchan

From my recent work...
DNA might provide a useful analogy. If a person is sick with certain illnesses, you know there is something wrong with some of his DNA. But you can’t “reboot life.” You can’t change the whole DNA coding of an existing person. But if we can figure out how to influence particular gene, that might cure the whole system. The same might be implemented in the political arena: if we can understand the logic of political action of an extremely dangerous government, we might be able to identify critical points of logic (or illogic) it relies upon, and attack and replace them with better ideas. Intellectual gene therapy that makes the entire old intellectual superstructure untenable, and paves the way for the “cure” of better ideas.
If so, this is important because it would enable us to fight purely in the world of ideas, without any death of human beings in the present, and preventing millions of deaths in future.
