Good, running a search engine isn't a crime.

Hilarious that the commies don't really get the irony here. Godless commies wouldn't hesitate to nail up christ to their idol.

BONUS: Commie Pope: "Unbridled capitalism is the dung of the devil". Clearly a person who believes market exchange isn't loving your neighbor. These types are incorrect; as market prices are the only way an individual can efficiently allocate resources and improve their lives through the division of labor and mutually beneficial exchange, allowing "unbridled" market interactions is totally loving behavior.

Naked Capitalism has a good perspective on the article.

After accelerating in the late 1990s, productivity growth has slowed markedly in the past decade. The slump is a bit of a mystery given the rapid pace of technological progress, which should generally allow companies to produce more per hour of work.

Is it possible that after seeing generation of productivity gains creamed off by owners, American workers have finally figured out there’s nothing in it for them, so why do it?

Incentives do matter, and guess who's stealing all the productivity gains? It's not the owners, it's inflation (just 2% a year can eat all productivity gains), which means the central bank (which means the government and their cronies).

As expected, cop in no trouble.

In order to enter Gaza, you pass through the Erez terminal with your government press office credential, which means you’re one of very few people who can get in or get out. And you wander down a long corridor, which is a cage, and then you arrive at a metal door at a concrete wall. The metal door opens, it shuts behind you, and you’re inside what is effectively a walled-off ghetto.

You look down this endless wall, to your right, and you see a remote-controlled machine gun perched on the wall. That’s the spot and strike system, which is operated by an all-female unit of Israeli soldiers in the Negev Desert, tens of kilometers away, by remote. And what they do is, they watch the buffer zone?—?this 300-kilometer area that Palestinians are forbidden from entering inside the Gaza Strip. And anyone who enters who they determine to be a “terrorist,” they eliminate with the push of a joystick button from a remote-controlled machine gun. It’s just that dystopian.

All the current standing wave based theories are hokum; they are traveling waves of sound -- this is why the sensation from your toe is not instantaneous, but at the speed of sound to your brain.

It will likely be ignored, much like last time.

Looks like their hoodlums can't tell a Chinaman from a Korean.

It was owned by German NATO goons and placed on the Turkey-Syria border. Considering the known software issues with Patriots, even a fairly brain-dead mujahid probably could have pulled it off.

Pensioners hosed as expected, pastoralists still ok. Meanwhile, the newspapers are running out of paper. B..But who will print the Drachmas???

UPDATE: note the military cuts below. Coup inbound.

Browsers still foolishly warning people off of self-signed certs.

They've hit the stage where they'd rather buy things they don't need than hold on to their bank digits a second longer.

Sorry, but concrete is much better for this purpose. Brutal symbols of centralization want to endure, not be disposable as wood inevitably is.

Being recorded as being a secessionist on a list is probably not wise. But, perhaps they've decided to pre-empt the surveillance society and just put their names on the top of the list for rounding up anyways.

They never left; Isn't that what the judiciary is called?

This is of course, after the feds get their cut.

I'm sure this will be useful inside engine blocks and so forth.

Due to their inclusion of OpenSSH in windows 10, it seems they have got a great deal of gratitude. It is a great piece of software.

Guantanamo prisoner Majid Khan testified that he had been subjected to torture that was far more brutal than the U.S. Senate report on torture made public last year. Khan testified that, among other tortures, he had been waterboarded, raped, sexually abused, subjected to solitary confinement in total darkness, and hung by his wrists for days at a time from ceiling beams. Every one of these actions is a direct violation of international law and of our deepest and most humane ethical convictions. Any one of these treatments, by themselves, would constitute an international crime against humanity. Taken together, the obvious conclusion is that the U.S. torture program is not only alive and well (unlike its prisoners), but is a program that is itself flaunting international conventions and basic ethical behavior.

The second—and more horrifying—thing we learned in June was that the CIA crafted its own internal regulations that permitted the agency’s director to override all international law in its torture practices, and to go the furthest ends of sadism: experimentation on human beings. Again ignored by the U.S. media, it took the Guardian from London to publish the document “AR 2-2, Law and Policy Governing the Conduct of Intelligence Activities.”

The evil IMF has a competitor. Competition in evil pursuits, like central banking, is not to be lauded. Paralell imperial systems does not bode well for world peace either; but much of this is a reaction to how evil the NATO Empire's behavior has been.

Because the kops recognize no rights, and no restrictions on their behavior. The only strategy to take is whatever keeps your ass alive and free in police encounters.

Expect mercenaries to be hired to pick up the slack (for more money, of course).

Will Grigg knocks it out of the park. It was a travesty of justice that the case was heard at all, and even then not by a real court and without due process.

How stupid do you have to be, American Christian, to have ever believed in salvation by state? For by State are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of the Republican Party.

Name one example of when voting Republican “saved” you. You have served yourself up on a silver platter. Now you are being skinned.

Dreher’s solution?

It is time for what I call the Benedict Option….Throughout the early Middle Ages, Benedict’s communities formed monasteries, and kept the light of faith burning through the surrounding cultural darkness. Eventually, the Benedictine monks helped refound civilization.

This takes courage; it takes dedication. The cost will be high.

American Christians couldn’t stand tall when the cost was minimal; why will they do so now?

As usual, appearing enlightened next to the troglodytic air administration of the USA.
