Re: 2016 Presidential Polls

Here is another way to slice the data... Pairwise Polling Instead of asking who gets the most first-place votes, we ran a pairwise contest between each of the top 12 candidates. The idea of looking at all pairwise contests was first proposed by the French political theorist Marquis de Condorcet over...

Re: Gun Control In France

TC T that link is a joke. Besides the poor information and choice of McVeigh, the abortion Dr. thing is laughable too. Going back to 1993 they list five murders. Maj. Nadal Hassan almost tripled that in less than an hour. Not sure I recall reading that the abortion shooters shouting "Jesus Is Great...

Re: I want 103 million dollars to be this stupid.

Both, there was a paper reduction mandate a while ago, why not a review of policy and legislation to see if the conditions requiring the action still exists in the same context. Certainly, one side or the other might use it as a reason to change policy, but if nobody objects, eliminate it.

Re: I want 103 million dollars to be this stupid.

I gave some examples of dumb rules, at your request, and the thread died - you ignored it. Most rules happen without advance notice. There is a rule-making, public comments are accepted then 5 knuckleheads make rule that no one wanted or even knew was coming. Once that happens they freeze things so...

Will the chicken tax be repealed?

It is no secret that the F150 saved Ford from going bankrupt. Being the best selling vehicle in North America has something to do with the Chicken Tax. This is still one protected business in the US, but could the Automakers be better off with it gone? I sure have my eye on some VW's you can't get i...

Re: Good column from Nolan Finley re: road funding

Our roads in Northern Michigan are in great shape compared to the Detroit area (and inner city Grand Rapids). We have no heavy industry, but we have temperature related heaving. It seems the quantity of heavy trucks in SE Michigan is a greater impact, but have you seen a 13 axle truck take a corner?...

Re: Gun Control In France

And here is the great divide in America: Rural vs Urban. I am guessing you have either never lived in an Urban setting OR grew up there but raced to the far suburbs. Those of us who are familiar with both sides of America realize that poverty looks different in both places, and the purpose for guns ...

Re: I want 103 million dollars to be this stupid.

Watching this dialog, I have no doubt that Trump or Carson will be the GOP candidate. This situation is such a non-issue, my head hurts.

Re: Gun Control In France

In which country does a Islamic Nutjob have a better chance of mowing down the most amount of people with a firearm they seem to have an ability to get legally or otherwise? Except that in the US, it is almost always metally impaired or domestic fights. See, we would have significantly less gun hom...

Re: Gun Control In France

Bryce, A) How many 'Merican's have stopped gun attacks in the US? Hardly any (Non-police) B) Look at the stats, you are 14 times less likely to be killed by a gun in France than in the US America is in there with the lawless drug production countries for gun violence. Firearm-related death rate per ...

Re: Drugs Kill More Than Guns, Cars

The DEA ranks controlled prescription drugs and heroin as the most significant drug threats to the United States.

Try reading your own drivel. Perscriptions over used by old people are over half the incidents.

Re: Giving up on God

Bryce,

The left may be looking for the death of God, the right is sseking to kill morality.

If we actually lived in a capitalist society, I might agree. Today, the ultra rich manipulate regulations to put markets solely in their favor. That's not free market.
