Again, your allegations, your rules.
The possibilities and likelihoods of unknown and uncalculated perturbing and/or moderating influences is not convenient to recognize nor theorize when one must allege knowledge of what is happening.
Modeling is an unproven and unprovable exercise in mathematical mental masturbation founded in hypothesis and flogged as revelation.
Identifying and quantifying processes are scientific endeavour. Proceeding to flaunt hubris of certainty and disallowing - and suppressing - consideration of shortcomings is not dialogue.
Propaganda is not an unconsidered evaluation in such a case. Nor does devaluing past ideas lend support to certainty about the new lot.

As a journalist, Ellen Brown's passion for research led her to ask a simple question about where our money and banking come from: Why do we repeat the cycle of privatizing bank profits in the good times, and publicly owning their losses in the bad times? Her answer may surprise you.

Since September 2001, Global Research has been bringing our readers a broad spectrum of voices analyzing global situations, from military threats against Iran and Syria, to the economic machinations of the financial elite. And we will continue to do so because we believe that access to information is the key to the truth.

"On March 29 in Ottawa, the Canadian House of Commons passed the federal government’s latest round of budget cuts and austerity measures. Highlights included chopping 19,200 public sector jobs, cutting federal programs by $5.2 billion per year, and raising the retirement age for millions of Canadians from 65 to 67. The justification for the cuts was a massive federal debt that is now over C$ 581 billion, or 84% of GDP."

Before the 1990s, this form of diabetes was hardly ever seen in children. It is still uncommon, but experts say any increase in such a serious disease is troubling. There were about 3,600 new cases a year from 2002 to 2005, the latest years for which data is available.
The research is the first large study of Type 2 diabetes in children, “because this didn’t used to exist,” said Dr. Robin Goland, a member of the research team and co-director of the Naomi Berrie Diabetes Center at Columbia University Medical Center in New York. She added, “These are people who are struggling with something that shouldn’t happen in kids who are this young.”

Forbes: It's Time to End the Drug War: "April 20 is the counter-culture “holiday” on which lots and lots of people come together to advocate marijuana legalization (or just get high). Should drugs—especially marijuana—be legal? The answer is “yes.” Immediately. Without hesitation. Do not pass Go. Do not collect $200 seized in a civil asset forfeiture. The war on drugs has been a dismal failure. It’s high time to end prohibition. Even if you aren’t willing to go whole-hog and legalize all drugs, at the very least we should legalize marijuana." I'm tempted to quote the whole (relatively short) article since it touches on just about every reason I support full legalization of marijuana. | |
