As a rule, I always check the four, three, and two star reviews since they have the least propensity for a scammer to create and waste time. 1 and 5 star reviews usually are an inane mix of "They're TERRIBLE" or "FANTAS

The west could carry out effective action and invest in infrastructure, but our serious unacknowledged issues with corruption prevent effective execution. It's less blatant than in other countries because we have a veneer of the rule

A thousand nods of agreement. I tell everyone that will listen to stop buying from Amazon and feeding the beast. They know that they have a counterfeit problem and they refuse to face it. I suspect that someone has done the math and figu

Thanks for responding, I had seen dexamthasone as a post-treatment for serious cases of the disease and to help out with the cytokine storm on Chris Martenson's series about COVID-19. Thanks for sharing your perspective!

To put to rest your straw man argument: Actually wasn't referencing Trump or Fox News at all. I don't watch television at all and Trump is a buffoon. I wish Trump had never even talked about it because then it wouldn't have

Not a scientist or doctor, but have taken a lot of time to understand how I can protect my family if needed. Not picking a fight as I feel that evidence based analysis is paramount. There are some good studies that show that HCQ+ ( HCQ with

Clearly you've never been in or worked in gov organizations. It's far more common than you think and easy to think, "it can't possibly happen here or to me." In the U.S. institutions like OSHA, USCSB, NTSB, and the

Dioxin tainted shaving soap... Bad times. Had no idea it wasn't legit until I started having crazy dermal issues and saw a doctor. Paid crazy amounts to have a sample tested to see if there was anything I could do to solve it.

I keep telling everyone I come across, STOP BUYING THINGS from Amazon. They know they have a huge problem and refuse to face it. I was injured in 2010 by counterfeit toiletries and since have embargoed them completely. I'm happy to b

Depending on how much you twist the logic, there IS a semblance of an ideal of "doing them a favor and sparing them the evils of the world". Not defending, but to the truly hopeless it probably provides some weighting for the dec
