  1. Science has a very naïve and dangerous conception of the relationship between theories (symbols) and facts (the "emptiness" of matter). By sticking to the letters (symbols) written in the Genesis, Goodyear is offering a good way to cope with the dangers science creates carelessly.
  2. Keynes would have said that during the last ten years, people were possessed by "animal spirits" that is "irrational exuberance".
  3. It doesn't work, the graphs confuse wealth and income.
  4. Since neo-Keynesianism cannot be said to be outrageous, I would say Obama's solutions are only unimaginative.
  5. Chrysler's future in Canada looks good to me since Fiat CEO Sergio Marchionne is a Canadian.
  6. Maybe those cops have to be fired but they do deserve their last pay.
  7. A threat has to be credible.
  8. Per se means in-itself, that is without consideration of what the suffering of your ancestor has done to you.
  9. No one is threatening to use nukes over Arctic sovereignty.
  10. No one is threatening to use nukes.
  11. The suffering of your ancestors per se doesn't make of you a more deserving person.
  12. Relative to deservingness, there is no difference between being born with financial wealth and being born with a very good genetic makeup.
  13. China and Russia have proposed the creation of a new international currency. Right now the USA thinks it is too big of a gift to accept. Indeed, a new currency could relieve the USA of all its financial obligations toward the World.
  14. In this vein, we can doubt that Paris Hilton has learned something in jail after she had followed an emerging trend among stars of drunk driving.
  15. Fiat CEO Sergio Marchionne in a statement yesterday thanked Obama for his encouragement to finalize a Fiat-Chrysler alliance.
  16. Krugman, in essence, laments the fact that Obama's Treasury Secretary, Timothy Geithner, acts too much in the same manner than Bush's last Treasury Secretary, Henry Paulson.
  17. Irony (sarcasm) is not enough.
  18. Conrad Black captured removing boxes from Hollinger Inc. headquarters in downtown Toronto by a security camera is the best example.
  19. We can say one thing in view of what happened in South Ossetia in August 2008, Russia doesn't like Georgia's project to become a NATO member.
  20. These Republican presidents had not disappointed a Nobel Prize in economics that much and so soon though.
  21. Because the Protestant world used to see Divine Election in the wealth people had, seeing deservingness in rich people can now be used to cover up their corruption.
  22. The Russian Federation is a permanent member of the Security Council.
  23. All evaluations done in US dollar terms are superficial since there is a very real possibility to replace this currency by a new international currency.
