The SLS is an expensive boondoggle that’s crippling our deep space exploration budget. The Falcon Heavy will put nearly as much in orbit for a fraction of the cost. somehow NASA won’t put astronauts on far cheaper SpaceX rockets without further testing, but they’ll roll the dice with the congressionally designed SLS.

Space planes like the Shuttle are dumb, it was 160,000 lbs of dead weight that could only lift 40,000 lb no higher than low earth orbit. The latest Falcon 9 can lift almost as much for 1/30 the cost and it’s capsule actually has a working escape system with backups.

Or who know that interlocks sometimes break and then you won’t be able to drive your car even with your belt on.

Driving is as safe as ever. The stats the story referenced were preliminary, not likely to be accurate, and skewed by a large increase in driving miles. The long term trend is still a massive decline in traffic deaths per miles driven. Today’s deaths per miles driven rates are half of what they were in the 80s, and…

Your insurance rates are your problem not mine. This is America, where no ones liberties should be taken away because you are a cheapskate.

Yea and Jews in Germany should have killed Hitler.

IDK what he’s doing with Russia other than encouraging more aggressive behavior, but Trump has been ISIS best recruiter the last month. Millions of muslims hate and fear ISIS, and we detain, harass and evict them if they try to flee.

I like Magic and hate the Lakers and Kobe. This totally makes up for no one getting me a Xmas gift.

Nope. If you don’t realize that a single political label covers people with wide ranges of opinion on the same topics, you lack critical thinking skills. Example: Conservatives are both for and against legal pot. Since i’m leveling based on specific behavior and not labels, it’s not a blanket statement. You see why?

Anyone who makes blanket statements about people based on classifications of “conservative” and “liberal” can’t think critically either.

People who want to be able to drive on the freeways before they are entirely jammed.

This ain’t going to make his headaches any better.

Even Keynes knew when an employer gets unionized no magic sack of money shows up to pay the higher wages/benefits with. After the employees trimmed by the newly unionized go looking for work, the companies they apply at don’t say hey,” we have more qualified applicants than ever before, lets find a magic sack of money…

BTW: Median family income grew strongly during Reagan’s tenure, and actually peaked significantly higher over 10 years later in 1999. The big trend has been the increase in employer benefits as a percentage of pay, median family income doesn’t account for those benefits, and if it did it would be higher than ever (see…

It means that unions decrease the number of jobs in order to increase the pay for those jobs. Workers not lucky enough to get a union job are forced to compete for non-union jobs, lowering the pay for those jobs. There is no free lunch.

It’s a lot harder to be monogomous when you are constantly being hit on by super attractive people desperate to sleep with you. Like you, I don’t have that problem either.

It wasn’t a joke, it had no setup or punch-line. It’s simple hate speech by a hitler youth looking motherfucker.

What he did was legal.

And yet somehow our poor live better than the poor ever have throughout history.

What about popukarizing the name “bug” for program errors (because of a moth caught in a circuit)
