But you know that they won't. They take their lead from Obama and he will never take responsibility for any of the screw ups happening under his nose. In the world of the Dems everything bad is blamed on someone else, there is no personal responsibility for anything. That is why our education system is so miserable, so many people on disability and food stamps, and on and on ad infinitum. (14 hrs ago | post #54)

I know that after reading the NAZI party agenda, reading the words of Hitler,(many of his speeches are on Youtube)and reading the accounts of economists and historians you still will not allow yourself to be educated I am still going to give you some more info. Maybe one day you will open your mind. "The basis of the claim that Nazi Germany was capitalist was the fact that most industries in Nazi Germany appeared to be left in private hands. What Mises identified was that private ownership of the means of production existed in name only under the Nazis and that the actual substance of ownership of the means of production resided in the German government. For it was the German government and not the nominal private owners that exercised all of the substantive powers of ownership: it, not the nominal private owners, decided what was to be produced, in what quantity, by what methods, and to whom it was to be distributed, as well as what prices would be charged and what wages would be paid, and what dividends or other income the nominal private owners would be permitted to receive. The position of the alleged private owners, Mises showed, was reduced essentially to that of government pensioners. De facto government ownership of the means of production, as Mises termed it, was logically implied by such fundamental collectivist principles embraced by the Nazis as that the common good comes before the private good and the individual exists as a means to the ends of the State. If the individual is a means to the ends of the State, so too, of course, is his property. Just as he is owned by the State, his property is also owned by the State. But what specifically established de facto socialism in Nazi Germany was the introduction of price and wage controls in 1936. These were imposed in response to the inflation of the money supply carried out by the regime from the time of its coming to power in early 1933. The Nazi regime inflated the money supply as the means of financing the vast increase in government spending required by its programs of public works, subsidies, and rearmament. The price and wage controls were imposed in response to the rise in prices that began to result from the inflation." http://mises.org/d aily/1937 “Being ignorant is not so much a shame, as being unwilling to learn.” ― Benjamin Franklin (14 hrs ago | post #142)

He did lie to other countries concerning his foreign policies and designs for war. Why would he lie to the German people about his socialism when we see from his speeches that he ran on an anti-capitalism socialist platform? Of that there is no denyingDo you really think that all corporations are capitalists? Some of the biggest corporations beg and pay for government intervention into the market, as long as it helps them that is. Why do you think that there are so many lobbyists in D.C. ? They are not there to ensure a free market and level playing field. They want their D.C. prostitutes to give them the edgeYou have shown me some lefty opinion pieces. I have presented you with the NAZI agenda, their campaign speeches, words from the man himself plus the writing of economists who have studied the history and lived in Germany at the time. You have zero proof for your thesis. From Nobel Laureate Friedrich Von Hayek an Austrian(same country Hitler is from), written in 1933: “The persecution of the Marxists, and of democrats in general, tends to obscure the fundamental fact that National "Socialism " is a genuine socialist movement, whose leading ideas are the final fruit of the anti-liberal tendencies which have been steadily gaining ground in Germany since the later part of the Bismarckian era, and which led the majority of the German intelligentsia first to "socialism of the chair" and later to Marxism in its social-democratic or communist form. One of the main reasons why the socialist character of National Socialism has been quite generally unrecognized, is, no doubt, its alliance with the nationalist groups which represent the great industries and the great landowners. But this merely proves that these groups too, as they have since learnt to their bitter disappointment, have, at least partly, been mistaken as to the nature of the movement. But only partly because, and this is the most characteristic feature of modern Germany, many capitalists are themselves strongly influenced by socialistic ideas, and have not sufficient belief in capitalism to defend it with a clear conscience. The famous 25 points drawn up by Herr Feder, one of Hitler's early allies, repeatedly endorsed by Hitler and recognized by the by-laws of the National-Socialist party as the immutable basis of all its actions, which together with an extensive commentary is circulating throughout Germany in many hundreds of thousands of copies, is full of ideas resembling those of the early socialists. But the dominant feature is a fierce hatred of anything capitalistic-indiv idualistic profit seeking, large scale enterprise, banks, joint-stock companies, department stores, "internationa l finance and loan capital," the system of "interest slavery" in general; the abolition of these is described as the "basis of the programme, around which everything else turns." It was to this programme that the masses of the German people, who were already completely under the influence of collectivist ideas, responded so enthusiastically. That this violent anti-capitalistic attack is genuine, and not a mere piece of propaganda, becomes as clear from the personal history of the intellectual leaders of the movement as from the general milieu from which it springs. It is not even denied that many of the young men who today play a prominent part in it have previously been communists or socialists. “ http://www.brookes news.com/091910hay eknazis.html (15 hrs ago | post #141)

U.S. oil boom leaves OPEC sidelined from demand growth.

But you would have had it been from a conservative source. The poor birds are taking a beating from wind mills and now it seems people are too. "Next week, voters in Falmouth, Massachusetts decide whether to spend $14 million to tear down two wind turbines - or turbines if you prefer. The Cape Cod town installed these turbines just three years ago in an effort to produce renewable energy and cut costs. Nearby residents says the turbines are a health hazard and that the only cure is to take them down. But neighbors typically don't object to the whoosh-whoosh sound of the turbines. Rather they talk about something called infrasound, a low-frequency sound that's controversial and not well understood. Selectman Doug Jones explains it has a vibration or sound pressure that gets reflected off the turbine itself and towards the homes." http://www.npr.org /2013/05/17/184700 636/cape-cod-commu nity-to-vote-on-st atus-of-wind-turbi nes It does appear that the unheard low level frequencies are making people ill. I do recall a class discussion in transmission frequencies where some of the very low frequencies that submarines use(below 300 hz) to transmit on can make people ill. Due to the power and long wave length those frequencies can actually vibrate your internal organs. At rock concert, race track or movie theater you can feel the low frequencies generated say by a subwoofer in your chest. Imagine that in the range that is not audible. The lower the frequency the longer the wavelength. (Yesterday | post #18)

Global Cooling

What warming? "The 2.5 cycles of the multi-decadal oscillation that were found in the global mean temperature is likely part of a recurrent oscillation extending at least to the Little Ice Age,is likely natural, and quasi- periodic with 70-year period. The observed episodes of warming and cooling in history can now be explained (next two slides). A more controversial conclusion: the anthropogenic warming rate during the early 20thcentury can be detected and it is no different than during the second half. The increasing anthropogenic aerosols likely masked the true greenhouse warming rate during the second half. Accepting that the AMO is real and recurrent allows a more consistent and coherent explanation of many observed multidecadal episodes of warming and cooling in history. Previously different xplanation is given for each episode: Recent “stalling” of warming of last 20 years: Kauffmann et al (2011): coal burning in emerging China. Solomon et al (2010): increase in stratospheric water. Solomon et al (2011): variable background stratospheric aerosol. Swanson and Tsonis (2009): climate regime shift. Early 20 th Century Warming: Scafetta and West (2005): solar forced. Wood et al (2010): A singular event of internal variability. Cooling period in the 70s and 80s: Rind and Overpeck (1993): enhanced aerosols. Similarly for preindustrial episodes, such as the Dalton Minimum... http://www.tims.nt u.edu.tw/download/ talk/20120918_2297 .pdf (Yesterday | post #111)

Yet more from the most corrupt administration in U.S. history. "Secretary of Health and Human Services Kathleen Sebelius is under fire from congressional Republicans after reports last week that she called health-industry officials and insinuated they should donate to efforts promoting Obamacare. “If she is raising money from private entities and coordinating with those entities to do something that Congress has refused to do, the Constitution doesn’t allow that and federal law makes it a criminal violation,” Senator Lamar Alexander (R., Tenn.) tells National Review. “The analogy to Iran-Contra in 1987 and 1988 at the end of the Reagan administration is very strong here,” Alexander continues. If Sebelius is raising funds to promote Obamacare, a purpose for which Congress refused to appropriate more money, “I don’t see how what she is doing is different than what [Reagan administration official] Oliver North did, and his actions and some others nearly sank the Reagan administration.” http://nationalrev iew.com/article/34 8582/sebelius%E2%8 0%99s-suspect-soli citations-katrina- trinko (Yesterday | post #39)

So you dismiss everything Hitler said? Why did other Lefties follow him then? Yes, Hitler was a Fascist dictator and Fascism is Socialism with a capitalist veneer. Why can you not understand this? I have shown you the writing of economists who lived in Germany at the time and who have since studied the NAZI economic system. The NAZI party platform, which I linked to, was definitely socialist. Hitler was against the Marxists but welcomed Marxist party members. Why would that be? Marxists were his closest competitors and he knew the members of the Marxist movement shared an ideology that was quite similar. You didn’t see Hitler inviting Laissez Faire ideologues into his party. He wasn’t concerned with conservatives, he didn’t want anything to do with them. Good grief, you are so thick some times. Get over the false right wing Fascist rhetoric, it is based on reality. The progressives, once the war was over, distanced themselves anyway they could from Hitler because of the atrocities that he committed. That is the only reason. I know that I won’t be able to convince you of the facts. So be it. Some wish to remain ignorant. Let me know how that works out for you. http://www.youtube .com/watch?v=pCVwx _rH6wM http://www.youtube .com/watch?v=EDtK7 xUIDxk (Yesterday | post #138)

Clinton firing a couple cruise missiles into Afghanistan is hardly trying to stop a terror network. Let's see, Muhammad Atta came to the U.S. in the middle of 2000, Bush was in power Jan 2001. So if I am guessing the 2001 terror attack plans were well under way before Atta entered the U.S. How again does Clinton get a pass on this and Bush the blame? (Yesterday | post #35)
