In the United States (the extent of my experience on the matter), the fuel taxes are normally understood to pay for roads, which is really the opposite of addressing the externalities (since building more lane-miles fuels more demand.) To m

While fond of Sowell myself, I wouldn't rush to put a 94 year old at the top of any ticket that hopes to be competitive.. To capture his age another way, some of his best works were favorably reviewed by FA Hayek (1899-1992). Edited: t

I hope you've not 'just' ordered. My order from November 1 got pushed back further, this time to 29 January, today.

Calling your political enemies "sociopathy" is functionally identical to calling them "deplorables", and people are likely to take you at your word when you do so.

Saying that doctors and waiters are both 'working class' may satisfy some ideological preference of yours, but it will reliably confound understanding and any improvement that could be downstream of that understanding. People have

I'm a little worried that Trump wasn't just an aberration, but rather was just first of a new breed. Thinking back on the Republican playing field in 2016, I don't know that any of the other candidates could have handled the

Yes, beyond a shadow of a doubt. Contraceptives make sex less risky, meaning that doing so outside of marriage is less hazardous, reducing one of the greatest historical "perks" of marriage. There are plenty of other ways in which

Overall better outcomes for children in two-parent households, directly reduces the number of young-ish listless males (large numbers tend to destabilize societies), and makes it extremely clear who is the "next in line", so to sp

22.4 L/mol (call it 20). Air is 80% N2, so let's just assume density of air is 30g/mol (N2 is 28, round up for ease of use.) Helium, I think, is monoatomic, so 2g/mol. Thus, load supportability is 28g for every 22.4L. 35

The world isn't fertile ground for this right now, but on the other hand there are good opportunities for technological innovation and other things that depend upon widespread safety. It may be that in our lifetimes we'll see the

One more thing to know about Co-60: its half-life of 5.27 years, combined with the radiation it emits, makes it particularly dangerous. The half life being so long means it's a 30 year problem (after 5 half lives you're at about 3

Up until a few years back, DC United played at RFK stadium, where the stands were made of metal. You could feel the metal move pretty severely when everyone was jumping up and down.

It's odd to talk about making it into an artificial reef as if that's a good thing here. They didn't explain their exact cooling setup, but the explanation came off as someone with pretty limited experience in seawater coolin

Well, first I'll say that it does seem fair to say that when he tells you himself. But, it turns out there's more to the quote. " I was not going to be an objective historian, because I didn’t really believe objectivity was p

While I'm sure there's a lot of savings in many segments, I think some addressing of inflation is needed in this analysis. You can't inflate the monetary supply for free, as housing markets are showing right now...

Your comment reacts to the wrong part of the quote. It is not controversial to say that all history is biased. The controversy is stating that perfect truth (objectivity), were it achievable, would not be desirable because the author believ

This is median, so maybe if you're saying the mechanism is fewer low income jobs available? 15/hr at 40h/50wk is 30k, so it would not raise median to bring the floor up.

Search as a lookup works, but search as an explorative method is utterly broken. In the case of building knowledge in a topic, the ideal scenario is probably something like a searchable PDF, where you can get to approximately the vicinity

It easily is. I spend more than that on rent, but between my wife and I, we could easily cover all expenses on $600/week each. If I left the California coast, I wouldn't want for anything material on this budget, and I think I cou

It doesn't help that they leaned heavily on Chinese numbers. Even with data from southern Europe that is likely to be more accurate, people relied on numbers coming out of China because they were early and more numerous... But not enou

Yeah, the higher output factory idea only works to the extent that you can find factories that can still add a shift and, more importantly, can find all the upstream capacity to support them doing so.
