No need to go through mental gymnastics, just call a spade a spade. He's a shill, and the poisoning-our-food industry employs the most shills overall.
So you're advocating against long term human studies? That's... odd.
Be prepared for the army of shills - this topic is one of the most targeted by shills.
So your answer is to rely on the DoJ, that itself is so corrupt it couldn't prosecute its way out of a paper bag? I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but the entire system is corrupt to the core.
The corporations will at least have to go through an ostensibly democratic parliament system to get their agenda passed instead of a fully authoritarian EU Council that is not subject to any kind of democratic control.
Replace MSM with NYT if it makes you feel better.
You jest, but your satirical examples are actually being floated for real. Exhibit A: let's ban cars because terrorists might use them to run over people. https://translate.google.ca/translate?hl=en&sl=sv&tl=en&u=ht...
Because MSM really hates Brexit, therefore they'll remind you about it forever.
It's a question of sheer amount of corruption. We're at a point where the revolving door has become an expressway, and the connection has become so hardened, that the only option becomes to shut them down. Most agencies…
A case study in how to implement an anti-democratic power grab by decorating it with buzzwords like "helping marginalized people". The crux of the story is that they no longer want city planning decisions to have any…
Tech workers have been complaining about H1B abuse since its inception. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TCbFEgFajGU Trump should be given credit for finally doing something about instead of Trump-deranged people looking…
On the one hand you warn about trying to guess the outcomes of complex economic systems, while on the other you go ahead and put forward a wild guess yourself. It's just as likely that although some jobs may be sent…
It was the OP who made the comparison - I was simply replying.
The point of the program was to employ individuals with unique and exceptional skills that were otherwise not found, at all, in the country. The point is NOT to have 49% of your staff be H1B's in order to reduce costs.…
Yes, good point. I think perhaps, as many things in life, it's a double edged sword.
There's currently a civil/proxy war going on, therefore depending on where you are, the "government of Yemen" will be a different group. The US and Saudi Arabia supports one of those two side, Iran supports the other.…
If it weren't for the relentless attack on wages via wage fixing cartels, visa abuses, outsourcing, etc. we would likely be seeing the very top engineers making close to $1M per year. Far from that "hurting startups" it…
Yes, people have claimed over one million have been killed in the second Iraq war. And you can easily make an argument for the fact that the war has never really ended, thus if you include figures up to 2017 it is…
I agree with you. I think I'm just more optimistic is all.
Ahh yes, just an honest mistake, and so long as only one million people are killed, not two, then we can promptly dismiss any concerns. Is that how it works? I wonder if you think the NYT had a hand in pushing for the…
Despite what we like to think, with every declassified document released we learn that what we thought were facts in the past were really just fictional stories being pushed upon us by the media. Our ability to see this…
More dangerous than lying us into foreign wars that kill millions of people and bankrupt the country? That's quite a high bar.
