"While there are economists I respect, I have met few graduate students more arrogant than those from economics: twenty five year old know-it-alls."

Ah yes, the horde of lemmings who revere Milton Friedman as some kind of god for his 'Free Market' economic theory.

You can't reason with these kids about anything.

"Oh, regulations are bad for teh economiez!!"

"Even regulations to keep lead paint off of kids toys?"

"uhhhh...."

Or the kids who revere trickle down economics:

"Those CEOs deserve the huge paychecks they're getting because they're providing the people with JOBS!"

"So it's alright that the CEO makes up to 10,000 times the lowest paid employee?"

Or the kids on taxes:

"I don't want those demmycrats taking my hard earned moneys and giving it to people who will sit on their asses all day collecting welfare checks!!"

(but don't dare ask them about the money that gets wasted on Military-Industrial and corporate subsidies.

You know, I really wish I never went to college and I went into my brokerage job straight out of high school. What the hell is my degree worth anyhow? One day, maybe a quarter century from now when I'm raising little dangers, is that the most important thing to have in life isn't a college degree (i'd hope they go anyhow) but a good bullshit detector, and never to resign themselves to the permanence of ideology.

It's very concerning if these cholesterol medications are truly having an impact on his brain function -- even more so is that how many millions of people take it?

We might be talking about decreasing the brain function of tens of millions of people at an earlier age thanks to these medicines. Likely to the point that they couldn't be bothered with dealing with complex thought and more susceptible to the sound-byte press.

Ron Paul is a year older than McCain yet his mental faculties are sharper than a diamond-tipped razorblade.

How do these bots end up on people's computers in the first place?

Why do I get the idea it's because of those "Free Screensavers" advertised on certain news websites?
