The thing is they should see what they CAN have and they should wonder WHY they can't have it. Then maybe they can do something about it. Because simply one of the main reasons why Mexico does not have a higher standard of living is

Well you don't have to be "a dick" to shame somebody. Just tell them the truth and help them realize the toll they take on society and themselves when they choose certain actions over others. When they come to realize and un

Do you need really need "sources" to know that shame acts as a deterrent not to do something, and/or as a motivating factor to do something, for a multitude of actions good or bad and has done so for thousands of years of hum

I understand what you are saying but, economically, treating the symptom rather than the cause is expensive; somehow there needs to be some way to create a cost high enough to encourage people to attack the cause of the problem; and shame c

Fires were started by arsonists that lit up a poorly managed forest; add that to the fact that it is almost a crime to cut down trees next to your home for a firebreak. Their forestry management is terrible and they NEVER let fires burn....

That might be a fair argument but I got lasik about 20 years ago (it was the best money I ever spent). And when I went through my assessment more than one doctor and at least one office person went through the risks with me and I was given

This is absolutely not so. Just because one flies high one day does not mean if you fly low the next day that it is negative at all. Because hey - you are FLYING! There are different joys in all levels of flight (or to leave the analogy,

This is not how it works though. Congress created the EPA with a Mandate and the power to create more rules/regulations on it's own that carry the force of law. This makes it easier for them because in theory they get to pass a la

This is rather simple; EPA is a part of the Executive Branch. He is the Chief Executive. So he can do these things. This is the way the government is set up under the Constitution of the U.S.
