COLLECTIVE MADNESS


“Soft despotism is a term coined by Alexis de Tocqueville describing the state into which a country overrun by "a network of small complicated rules" might degrade. Soft despotism is different from despotism (also called 'hard despotism') in the sense that it is not obvious to the people."

    >An ominous reason that Assad has cut off internet access might be because he is about ready to do something that he doesn't want reported on social networking or other websites. Given the pathetic response of the west to his use of chemical weapons, perhaps he is about to expand their use and doesn't want any living witnesses to confirm it.<

  5. Glenn Beck Offends Jews By Depicting Mayor Bloomberg in Nazi-Style Salute

    Glenn Beck roused the National Rifle Association's annual convention this weekend with his attacks on New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, but he also aroused criticism by a major Jewish group for depicting the mayor giving what appears to be a a Nazi salute.

    The head of the Anti-Defamation League called Becks' comments "deeply offensive on so many levels," and B'nai B'rith called for Beck to apologize.

    "Glenn Beck, the keynote speaker at the NRA's annual convention, trivializes the Holocaust when he compares New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg to Adolf Hitler," B'nai B'rith told ABC News.


    Our own poster quot told US that ...

    Hitler, qout wrote, was right, his own father, was wrong.

    Looks like Glenn Beck thinks Mr Bloomberg feels the same way. That Bloomberg thinks, like Hitler, that government needs the power to ban whatever the practitioners of government do not approve of...

  11. Israelis furious over Stephen Hawking’s conference pullout over Palestinian boycott call

    ...

    In his letter to conference organizers, Prof. Hawking stated he had reconsidered his earlier agreement to participate in the event. “I have received a number of e-mails from Palestinian academics,” he wrote. “They are unanimous that I should respect the boycott. In view of this, I must withdraw from the conference. Had I attended I would have stated my opinion that the policy of the present Israeli government is likely to lead to disaster.”

    The Israeli chairman of the conference, Israel Maimon, denounced Prof. Hawking’s decision to boycott the event as “outrageous and inappropriate, especially for one so fundamentally associated with the spirit of independence as a person and an academic.”

    The British physicist, who has visited Israel on at least four occasions in the past, has been a frequent critic of Israeli policy. During the three-week-long conflict between Israel and Hamas in the Gaza Strip in 2008-09, he described Israel’s bombardment of Gaza in retaliation to frequent rocket attacks as “plain out of proportion.”

    “If Israel wants peace, it will have to talk to Hamas,” he said at the time. “Hamas are the democratically elected leaders of the Palestinian people and cannot be ignored.”

    God Bless Ethanol - God Bless Rufus

    ....................

    The Ethanol Mandate: Hurting American’s Economy


    Who’s paying the costs of the federal ethanol mandate? Every family who shops in a grocery store or dines at a restaurant, every livestock producer who faces higher feed costs, and every motorist who fills up their tank at the gas station pays the price of this unworkable policy.

    The ethanol debate is no longer just a debate about fuel or food. It is also a debate about jobs, small business, and economic growth. The federal government’s creation of an artificial market for the ethanol industry has triggered a domino effect that is hurting American consumers, livestock producers, food manufacturers, and retailers. A policy that started with good intentions has resulted in a slew of unintended consequences.

    The Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) mandates that 36 billion gallons of renewable fuels be part of our nation’s fuel supply by 2022. However, almost the entire mandate is currently being fulfilled by corn ethanol. One of the greatest unintended consequences of the RFS is the steep increase in the price of corn. As the amount of corn being used for fuel goes up each year, the problem grows worse. While more corn supplies are being diverted to ethanol production, corn prices have climbed significantly. Between 2005 and 2011, corn prices rose by $5 per bushel. Then last summer, severe drought coupled with demands from the RFS sent corn prices to record highs. Simply put, the ethanol mandate has driven up costs at the expense of food and feed uses.

    A few weeks ago, I introduced the RFS Elimination Act, which would completely get rid of the RFS. I also introduced the RFS Reform Act, which would eliminate corn-based ethanol requirements, cap the amount of ethanol that can be blended into conventional gasoline at 10 percent, and set the level of advanced biofuels production at more achievable levels.

    The significant support surrounding fundamental reform of the RFS is evidence that there is growing momentum behind this issue. In addition to support from bipartisan Members of the House, my legislation to reform the mandate is supported by a diverse coalition of more than 45 organizations from farm and environmental groups to restaurants, food manufacturers, small engine manufacturers, consumer groups, conservative think tanks and hunger aid organizations.

    We should not continue to put our economy in a position where fuel is pitted against food, jobs, and economic prosperity. What we do not need is the federal government putting their heavy hand on the scale and tipping it in the favor of the ethanol industry, leaving consumers to pay the price. Instead renewable fuels should compete fairly in the marketplace, free from the distortion and government interference that the current ethanol mandate forces.

    As a longtime supporter of eliminating the ethanol mandate, I will continue to support passage of this legislation in Congress to fix this problem. It’s time to reconsider our ethanol policy.

  16. WASHINGTON -- Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) unveiled her first bill Wednesday, designed to set student loan interest rates at the same level the Federal Reserve offers to big banks.

    With some student loan rates set to double on July 1 -- from 3.4 percent to 6.8 percent -- Warren's bill would reduce student loan interest rates to 0.75 percent, opening the Fed's discount window to students.

    "Every single day, this country invests in big banks by lending them money at near-zero rates," Warren told The Huffington Post. "We should make the same kind of investment lending money to students, who are trying to get an education."
