US: Earthquake safety survey of nuclear power plants shows that there is a high risk of core damage leading to meltdowns. In light of the Fukushima event, current rules are inadequate because they fail to account for larger earthquakes, floods, tornados and hurricanes. MSNBC 2011 Sep 2 (Cached)

US: Dick Cheney says that torture by waterboarding (authorized by him) was OK because it was only used on 2 or 3 people and it kept America safe for over 7 years. [That’s the logic of collectivism: Anything is justified if claimed for the greater good of the greater number.] RawStory 2011 Aug 30 (Cached)
China’s central bank issued a policy memo requiring higher down payments or other collateral on home loans to combat overbuilt real estate development and inflated prices. [If China (or any country) would stop managing the money supply, let money be based on gold or silver, and let the free market set interest rates, new building would match realistic demand, and prices would be exactly what they should be.]

Time magazine says it is unconstitutional for states to require drug tests as a condition of receiving welfare. [There is nothing in the Constitution that dictates what states must do in this regard, unless one makes a far-fetched interpretation of the 14th Amend-ment and claims that the equal-protection clause covers it. The bigger issue is the unconstitutionality of welfare itself. If anything violates ‘equal protection’ of citizens, it is the redistribution of wealth from one group to another. Time remains silent on that issue] Time 2011 Aug 29 (Cached)

Al Gore would like to see global-warming skeptics become marginalized and despised just the same as racists are. He says that skeptics are “deniers” and must be confronted. [Bold talk, but Gore has refused to publicly debate the issue. That is because, in any such debate, he would be forced to “deny” that the sun has an influence on global temperature and “deny” that the Earth has been through many cycles of warming in its history, long before man-made hydrocarbons were a factor. In other words, he would reveal himself as a pathetic denier of scientific fact and would loose the debate.] DailyMail 2011 Aug 29 (Cached)

YouTube 2011 Aug 28
