The above comment is an excellent example of political gaslighting, there is ample, undeniable evidence of some sort of GOP collision with Russia. No sane person looking at the evidence could come to any other conclusion, but by confidently

Obama lowered taxes, in fact no Democratic president has raised taxes during my lifetime (I'm 25). It's pretty strange people always claim this is a thing when it's just flat false.

This somewhat anecdotal, but the biggest issue I had when living in the suburbs was traffic. I'm someone who has driven hundreds of thousands miles and never been in an accident, but the extreme levels of fear and stress I got from goi

The thing is it's not even really an argument, it's a rationalization. It's so strange to me that someone would even try to argue that life expectancy doesn't reflect the quality of health care. what conceivably could be

"By any means necessary", was in retrospect an inflammatory statement, which I should not have used. I don't believe violence is necessary, or even helpful in achieving a moral society. As for judgements about the morality of

I get this is a a technology forum a people generally shouldn't post politically charged stuff. I am more then happy to never post any political crap here again, but I like to know why/how my recent post was flagged. I apologize,

Try to do the same thing with HC, it will interesting to see what the results of that would be, I mean you could have a point, but I think there's a reason this is Trump we're talking about. As for my dignity, perhaps I'm mor

The Trump mindset is will never be shut down it's returned again throughout history leading to death and bloodshed whenever it takes hold, we can't stop people think the way they do because hatred and xenophobia are part of human

Your paragraphs 3 and 4 and excellent points I hadn't considered. I think however it's not enough to conclude that consciously avoiding using antibiotics provides a net gain. It, in my mind, becomes a bit of an economics question

I thought this would be some people's reactions because they don't want to address the science. It could very well be possible that we are under prescribing antibiotics to the point where they can stay in the population long enoug

I think when the law is not influenced by societal consensus it becomes a farce. In many ways the societal consensus on morality is law wheather it maintained by the state, vigilantes or in this case a legal fiction which is some combinatio

It's interesting that the findings in this article are an unintended benefit of a study on smell. Makes you wonder if any other studies have important data like this where data was simply discarded because it wasn't relevant to th

I have very bad posture since I was a child. I have tried many, many different stretches and even physically therapy, but nothing has been as effective as simple jogging. Recently I've decided to solely focus on jogging (40 min) after
