Why do conservatives hate animals so much?
Or, maybe they just like to kill things that can’t fight back.
Who knows? Either way, how you treat animals tells me a lot about how you treat those you don’t agree with. Side with the animal killers and you increasingly have very little solid ground to make a reasoned argument on.
Time to speak up again this kind of thing.
You are gonna have to click deep to see this whole thing. Worth it though.
A look back at the age of Prohibition.
Another leftover from the archived tabs.
A quick history lesson at what supposedly makes the world go ’round.
This is funny in the ironic symbology kind of way. Tea Bagging Traitors across America have taken to flying the Gadsden flag as a symbol of protest.
Primarily because they are unoriginal bastards and, more to the point, snakes themselves.
Turns out, however, that the snake on the flag – the Eastern diamondback – is endangered and in need of government protection if any are to remain.
Irony. Tastes delicious!
Tasty Chinese food from a dark time in that nation’s history.
A case in point to my last post, American carmakers seem to be getting back on their feet. Part of it is finally learning the lessons they should have learned during the 1970s and 1980s. Another part of it is workers settling for half the old pay and yet another of just overall doing things better.
I totally understand taking what you can get to keep a job, but this has been going on for years. At some point – and let’s not remember Henry Ford was smart enough to realize this – you have to pay people enough to actually buy the stuff they are making.
And seriously, shouldn’t this country be *at least* as smart as Henry Ford?
Times are still hard, even months after this article.
I am kind of working again, making nowhere near what I used to. I imagine many, many others are considering themselves lucky to be in the same boat.
I know the news sounds better – and I truly hope it is – but we’ve got a long way to go. And getting back to where we started isn’t going to make me cheer either. Let us find a way to do better. All of us.
