We know how, morons!
Idaho health officials are investigating how nearly 60 people got sick after drinking raw milk in the past two weeks. The Idaho Department of Health and Welfare says they didn't name two dairies potentially linked to the outbreak “because this is a potential risk for any raw milk producer.”
I swear, we are having to let people relearn lessons already paid for in oceans of blood and sewage

Economic reporting is horrible, which is why I have been trashing it for three decades. That has to do with who owns the media. That should be a huge issue, but for some reason few people can be bothered to think about it.
Well. Do they do enough to counter the impression that it is? not something paid attention to but my guess would be no. ???

As the ebola and hantavirus outbreaks continue to spread, the Trump Administration is responding by ordering US scientists NOT to cooperate or even communicate with international health agencies. If either outbreak spreads to the USA, Trump is making certain that we will be completely unprepared.

Everything feels like a grift or scam these days because our economy offers more monetary incentives to grifters and scammers than to honest businesses or creators. Nothing is going to feel better or improve until this changes.

yes. the clearest path to deal with the SCVA ruling is just to say that it wasn’t a constitutionally valid exercise of judicial review. because it wasn’t!
again, this is literally black-letter constitutional text in virginia. this is an inalienable power that supercedes any formal amendment process. the court went beyond its jurisdiction when it attempted to overturn the referendum.
