The U.S. Military Will Spend $1.5 Trillion on a Plane That Barely Works

"And the main effort of military leaders through the past decade, under the Republican leadership of the Bush administration and the Democratic leadership of Obama, has been to get rid of the A-10 so as to free up money for a more expensive, less reliable, technically failing airplane that has little going for it except insider dealing" Only the Holy Military can get away with this nonsense. The Corporate Welfare State run amok.

Purple Heart Recipient Gunned Down By Police After Calling 911 For Medical Emergency (VIDEO)

Think riots have never caused change in America? Think again

The French Revolution was street violence - and resulted in historically significant change - aristocracy backed by religious authority was no longer in control of the state. American street riots have caused change, but not at the level of significance the French Revolution. The "Arab Spring" was potentially another historically significant revolutionary spark - but it seems to have fizzled. On the other hand, Napoleon may have appeared to compromised the course of the revolution, so maybe there is hope.

The Origins of Civilization, Gil Stein

“The Middle East was the first place where people domesticated plants (ca. 8300 BCE) and animals (ca. 7500 BCE), ushering in the Neolithic period with its characteristic village economies based on food production. However, domestication of plants and animals took place independently in a number of different parts of the world. Local cultures in North America, Mesoamerica, South America, China, and Africa each domesticated their own unique sets of plants and animals” Thought to Think: The areas where modern civilization emerged are now what we (you, me, and others reading this post) are the least civilized areas of the world (China excepted.)
