Yes, and I also need the government to tell me what to eat through some sort of stupid pyramid (which turns out to be the exact opposite).

Oh wait, they did away with that. I guess the state got too many kids fat so they finally decided that maybe their government brilliance went too far.

They replaced the pyramid with with a dinner plate that is crap too.

I would imagine so, being that anything and everything the government does is crap. Virtually all of it. Ron Paul and Machiavelli’s “The Prince” first taught me all of that.

Is there any reason why cops have panasonic toughbooks in all there cars? (this could just be my city) But toughbooks cost around 3k a pop. Who the hell buys a 3000 laptop? They arent on the sunny beaches of iraq running around with their laptops in their hands! its screwed into there damn car/suv! why are they spending that much money on on a damn laptop when they can get a more powerful (computing power) for half the price!

this is pissing me off not to mention the fact that every government car is see are only a couple years old (if not brand new) and most of them are 40k+ SUVs!

Why do you think we see so many Congressmen with BMWs? Gotta put those tax dollars to good use for the American people!

i know. i was just venting. I went to a gun show today there must of been 20 brand new cop tahoes all with toughbooks parked at the enterance (not in parking spaces). Then those fatasses were just drinking coffee in a cluster laughing and joking for hours.

I like the part in that one Seinfeld episode “The Chinese Restaurant” where Jerry says that he always sees cops around with nothing to do, so they should make them sweep the roads instead in order to make them more useful.

You know, ive always thought that adam smith was an american founder fathers.

It turns out it was john adams.

Funny how that came out to be.

And here im like, one of the greatests economists, who started modern economics was also a founder of the united states.

Now that notion in me is gone…

@Kevin

Well, at least the founders were inspired by the likes of Smith even if he wasn’t one of them, right?

According to Rothbard Smith made no positive novel contribution to economics :stuck_out_tongue:

Who is Rothbard Smith?

Rothbard Smith? What the…wait…oh, I see…ah, yes, how cheeky.

Just want to get an anecdote off my chest from a while back that’s both funny and sad. I was debating with my dad about the state of the economy and I think I mentioned how Obama is steering us towards a total economic collapse or something along those lines. My dad says, very emphatically, “But Obama has ECONOMISTS advising him!” All I could do was /facepalm over the phone. :stuck_out_tongue: I wanted to scream “Well, so did Bush!” but I gave up. Anyway, you’re the only guys who would get it so I wanted to share that.

I want to bounce off a thought…

Maybe this is better as its own thread…either way.

I keep hearing Austrians saying, “We need more study on these previous business cycle panics” (specifically, I’ve heard Tom Woods say this). O.k.. So, I was thinking about getting a list of panics that need more study, and starting a bunch of The Point campaigns that goes something like this: You will get all the money in this The Point campaign as an award if you get a paper published in the Quarterly Austrian Journal of Economics about Panic X (where X is on the previously mentioned list).

Call it the “Panic Preference Prize” or something :U.

That sounds like a great idea. Sounds like something I could include on LibertyHQ

Despite the folksy sound, this is pretty good. Actually, it’s good specifically because it sounds childish:

Hurrah! It’s Alucard!

You’ve seen Hellsing?

I just watched all nine episodes of Hellsing Ultimate which are currently out over the past few days and I thought to myself “I gotta get a cut of this”

I’ve seen snippets of it. Looks like a pretty cool anime.

I used to have a friend who was a big fan. He said, “It has everything, dude! Vampires, hot girls, graphic violence…”

I started this anime reeaaally expecting to hate it… And I reaally loved it. It’s graphic as hell but it’s the first anime I’ve seen where every single episode is both classic and epic. It’s “off the chain yo” as the youngsters say in their hip young lingo. Character development is good, good plot, awesome atmosphere, and absolutely epic moments. I’m just gonna throw this one out there as an example: Nazi Vampire Army… AMEN!
