I've always found it odd that some people don't consider tough decisions like those admirable. To me, the point is George Washington was able to make tough decisions---which unarguably harmed many people---in order that the nati

The address shown on the phone is the address of a fantastic breakfast place in Potrero Hill. I'd recommend it to anyone.

This is dumb. If you look at the bill itself [1], it explicitly states 11 (a) In compliance year 2018, each electric utility 12 shall procure a minimum of ninety-five percent (95%) of its 13 sales of electricity in Wyoming from el

OP, who is "we" referring to in your title? A very large portion of the US certainly disagrees with almost every point in this article.

I completely agree with you. Your argument stands much better than the one presented in this article.

One could properly dose this 9-year-old and make him "chill out." I have no doubt that it is possible. That said, I really agree with your argument. You make a great case for legalization that isn't merely "oh hur dur lo

I'm for the legalization of marijuana, but I really hate the arguments these articles present in favor of it; I'm sure your raging 9-year-old kid would chill out on a strong dose of heroin, too. We should not falsely elevate marij

I honestly didn't downvote you. I'm not trying to argue that the US being afloat justifies the acts you named. I was just trying to point out that what you said can be said about almost any country. I understand where you're

by gragas 10y ago
Yeah, and by that logic it's sad that the US is still afloat because all the atrocities that it has committed. I think comments like "Oh so depressing, think of the Syrian atrocities, etc." are at best simplistic nihilism. It

Do you seriously expect Putin, of all people, to raise up neighboring countries in lieu of Russia? He is a strategist who puts his country above all else. This is practically out of Machiavelli's The Prince : Putin "entertains&qu
