re: Let the US auto industry die

Dear diary,
I want a Chinese BYD car/suv that’s more reliable with features well ahead of its time at half the price of the crap I can get here in the US.
So why protect the US auto industry from itself? They let us down before the bailout and have let us down again by going back to becoming unreliable shite boxes.
Don't you know that...
No matter what the car is, if it ain't made in the US of A you should not be buying it...no matter how good it is....no matter how inexpensive it is.....no matter how fuel efficient it is....no matter how low maintenance it is.....no matter how many state of the art or modern features it has.....
Buy American! Be American!

Honestly 80 year olds should be a taboo for anyone not in their age range. Sometimes their mental faculties fail and they might not be able to give consent.

Went into the ladies restroom on my first day on campus while entering CEBA, Patrick Taylor hall now. Just opened the door and stepped away from it like I had touched a fired up barbeque grill as a couple of ladies laughed.
I was really embarrassed then and thankfully back then a mistake was just a mistake not a sex crime like it is now.

When he lost his advantage
He created this advantage by working really hard at recruiting. Then he realized that working hard was not good enough and that other schools with richer alumni bases would be able to out recruit him by simply writing cheques, while he became the victim of the insane expectations he himself set by being insanely successful.

Without its energy production, manufacturing, and yes, agriculture
Energy industry and technology are changing. Electric and hybrid vehicles, ethanol, hydrogen, nuclear, solar and wind energy is the way forward.
Not oil and coal.
Manufacturing hub is, and will be China.
Brazil is and will be the world's farmer.
Agriculture, manufacturing and oil are not going to be the core pillars of the economy....no matter who says what. The coasts should move on forward and let the rest of the company roll back to the 1950s.

Use your logic to explain Singapore and Hong Kong to me.
The coasts are not just bank accounts. They are a lot more. They are technology, services etc.
What does the rest of the country make other than agriculture.
You are thinking like we are in 1950s.

If California, Oregon and Washington left the Union and formed a separate country they would have a per capita gdp greater than any major nation.
In the same time if the American North East left with New York, Connecticut, Rhode Island, New Jersey, Maryland Delaware, Virginia, New Hamshire, Maine and Vermont, that nation would also have a per capita gdp greater than any major nation.
Combine that with a free trade agreement between these two nations, Canada and a free passage for citizens through Canada and you have a modern day economic powerhouse zone with one of the highest per capita GDP. Extend this with FTA with Australia, NZ and the UK and you have a economy far more robust than both the US, EU or China.

Quintessential Tiger Droppings.....fire a coach after he has won a national championship and went back to the semi finals the next year.
I think we should replace him with Ed Orgeron. Coach O would make a wonderful gymnastics coach.

Never, according to you.
I am not saying there that violence in schools does not happen elsewhere, but it does not happen with the regularity that is happens here.
I am not saying...we should restrict guns....but why not declare schools and colleges gun free zones and scan bags and people for guns, knives, drugs when they enter and exit school premises.
Schools are for teaching kids math, reading, science, history, geography, languages etc. Why do we need guns for learning these things.

How often does it happen there and how often does it happen hear. Check out the per capita gun related homicides in the countries ripping us off like EU countries, UK, Australia, Canada and New Zealand.

Because they are ripping us off tooo.........
