I'd have noted the demographics altering mass slaughter of innocents first and foremost. The legacy is really mostly a brief interval of charred cities and libraries, and enormous mass graves. The whole empire unraveled pretty quickly

What you propose makes a ton of sense absent the welfare state. In a world where extended families are the support network, young parenthood makes a great deal of sense. As things stand now what we see in practice is a massive transfer of w

There is an STD pandemic. Multi-drug resistant STIs are rapidly spreading. The "sexual revolution" was basically the twenty year period when a shot of penicillin cleared anything up. That's over.

Both of which use the same hormones. They're not using copper IUDs, I doubt.

Nobody ever mentions the problems with environmental pollution and human cancer with chemical contraception. It's very conspicuous. If it were any other product the downsides would be heavily discussed. http://i.imgur.com&#x

Most classic sci-fi is deeply anti-liberal. Liberal utopian stuff like Star Trek is the exception. Dune is loaded with implicit acceptance of aristocracy and religion.

The "upwind" and "archimides lever" references are just things I would expect any reasonably cultured person to get.

Consumer Reports and Edmunds are reportedly unimpressed with the reliability on their 30,000 mile tests. More problems requiring service than most cars.

Are the perspectives of racists not welcome here? No interest in the thoughts of Lee Kwan Yew and Nelson Mandela? I respect these schools of thought.

You get enough bad ideas hiding under the aegis of "science." Some guys claim something and pretend to be more sure about it than they've right to be. Dress it up as a scientific theory and you're personally unassailable

Insulin resistance is about being diseased already. You don't understand what insulin does in a normal, healthy person. It's good and fine. I personally wouldn't advocate for a vegetarian diet but with plenty of dairy it&#x27

Dairy is an excellent source of protein. Inability to digest milk is far more rare than people think. Daily consumption of small amounts of milk will result in perfect milk digestion in most people over the course of a couple weeks. Regardl

Who told you that? Insulin does not produce inflammation. On anything resembling a normal cuisine the relative share of carbohydrate vs. saturated fat really doesn't matter much. I hate to break it to you but the Taubes shtick is laugh

It's PUFA consumption. They're using corn and soy oil and peanut oil with everything rather than their traditional ghee. They're probably also eating less dairy overall.

Allegedly the old deposit system worked great. The bottlers were forced to pay for returned bottles, taking care of the disposal problem. But coke and pepsi didn't like that, so here we are.

You're assuming the current price recovery is not a prolonged dead cat bounce. The next price event will be down, and then flat or declining for ages. There's no round two for the QE type events of the last ten years. Going forwar

Nobody ever seems to acknowledge the possibility of another across the board 30% drop in prices all over the country. This is my main reason for not buying. I think another severe, deflationary recession is almost an inevitability. Apparent
