Many times I have heard these arguments from politicians --particularly Republicans; it's "common wisdom", but it's wrong. High Speed rail makes even more sense for cheaply moving mail, freight, and people as distances to be traveled increase. It makes just as much sense for moving some types...

Meanwhile there appears to be both a prevention and a cure (if started early enough) for Sarcopenia. A malady among elderly males that causes many millions to hobble around on walkers and costs billions in broken hips and nursing home care. See J Clin Endocrinol Metab. 2008 Aug; 93(8)...

Or if our U.S. situation is looked at in another way, i.e., the correct way, there really is no debt. Instead there is a growing, at this point anyway, future obligation to either print more outside money in the form of Bank Reserves or in the form of Treasuries. It's obvious this obligation...

That's good to know, I guess. You prompted me to look this old proverb up to see where it comes from. This is what I turned up: In the case of “you can catch more flies with honey than vinegar,” the phrase is first seen in print in 1666 in A common place of Italian proverbs and proverbial...

You can catch more flies with honey than vinegar.

This is a problem holding the country back. I am not referring to belief that all politicians are a problem. I am referring to the unfounded belief that most politicians are crooked, incompetent, untrustworthy and lack integrity. This is not true. Most are competent trustworthy and honest...

Just a question for you, if you know the answer. Aren't all of those things you want the president to do things he has said he is in favor of but are also things he can't do on his own without Congress passing legislation and they don't qualify for reconciliation to bypass a filibuster? If so...

Give me a reason why I should. I don't owe you anything. Be happy with what you've got.

Sorry. I have two left feet.

Early in a career there are things far more important than compensation; yet I know that most everyone will be swayed by compensation rather than the considerations they should be giving the most weight to... as a matter of fact, compensation may be in some instances inversely related to the...

that's discouraging.

But he couldn't get it passed,could he?

Not anyone you would know. You and your buddies are safely logic free. I have been out of touch for a few hours, what's the latest conspiracy?

Could you please add, "Get rid of for profit prisons to your list"

It seems to me you have always had a problem with logic -- too much of it. This is politics, logic has no role to play in politics.

I only mention a few very specific policies I disagree with that are policies of the Biden Administration. Joe Biden Happens to be a Democrat. If the Republicans were to run that Gangster Trump again, or any of the gutless Politicians that have demonstrated a complete lack of integrity, you...

We know you listen to Fox News. Thanks for being honest about this. I would say close to 100% of the folks that have fallen for ridiculous conspiracy theories get their information mainly from political commentary on two sources: Fox News and Infowars. Keep watching them, but do yourself the...

Or perhaps you made this up as convenient to your narrative. The truth is more likely that prior state secretaries did what Ms Clinton did and no one noticed or brought it to anyone's attention. Regardless, there are no substantive parallels between the Hillary incident and the present one...

If you're much younger, then that could help explain why you guys seem so easily swayed by both mis- and dis-information without bothering to check it out. It's amazing how you guys seem to fall for stuff that most older more experienced individuals would immediately recognize as being unlikely...
