Good Question, but that is the brand of capitalism devised, practiced and 'advertised to the world' by US of A.

Government work with (or for) mega-corporations. Any attempt at introducing anything that will cost money is met with howling cries of 'government overreach', 'anti-business' and if everything else fails "FREEDOM"…

Sure! I am certain you checked with their PR and they said it, so it must be true!

First of all most of the detailed crash analysis posted by Admiral on Medium ultimately boil down to an Airline trying to 'save money', 'cutting cost' and 'fight regulators' even AFTER safety problems are uncovered. Of course, that's how…

Read up on who actual inventors were, and who did America got in bed to make these things happen. That will give you your answer

I would give zero f**k if you were to text and drive without wearing seatbelt -- but not when I am a passenger!

And if this analogy goes over your head; I am comparing US of A as a car and all (as in ALL lives matter) as passengers.

“ I am not saying we should kill stupid people … but let’s just remove all these ridiculous warning labels and let nature take it’s course” — George Carlin

So may be this is their underhanded conspiracy to really make America Great Again ?!?

And how about the MASS MURDER you commit every time you give yourself a handj*b? How can you possibly defend that?

You are murdering them even before they have chance to be conceived!

Thanks for this piece. Curious though - if the enlisted army shrinks, won't that give another ammo to our "We good. They bad" crowd? They will use it to get even more contracted / mercenary soldiers - and ask for even bigger budget for that?

It does not. It will be kinda like taking away phone from someone who insists on texting and driving, because s/he doesn't trust gomenment and has done 'own research'!

I give close to zero f**k if that driver was alone -- pretty sure s/he believes in 'personal responsibility' and all !! But if putting my life as a passenger at risk ... I would say "f**k your feelings"!

So it seems you are okay if a man proclaims in public forum that he is not attracted to fat woman or women of <race>? For someone claiming to be a world citizen you certainly don't seem to have much real world experience in that area.

Not too difficult to find out -- publish a post about defending man's right to say above…

libertarian wing == you mean those who come up a list of "should" for any unexpected misfortune, only when it happens to others?

LOL .... you sure libertarian utopia even needs a justice system? Cases can be solved just by taking personal responsibility without any government overreach.
