8 SiGraybeard (not verified) We can only hope the IRS is gone by 2013. By 2013, I expect gangs of IRS agents with those Remington 870s they've ordered going door to door collecting on those 1099 forms. »view 04/17/11
6 Rain (not verified) Are these maps monitored from http://radiationnetwork.com accurate? I have compared many different maps. Radiation levels appear to be elevated almost globally. CNN reports 10 million times? was it a neutron star that caused this? O_o.... »view 03/27/11
5 SiGraybeard (not verified) Interesting chart! In the early days, refining gasoline had to be "high tech" and more expensive to do than now - after a century of practice. All technology tends to get cheaper as you get better at it. From that standpoint, I'd expect prices to come down compared to a standard, and that's what... »view 03/07/11
4 Reg T (not verified) Isn't it also a fact that the taxes on a gallon of gasoline are five or six times the profit the gas companies make per gallon? »view 03/07/11
4 bsfootprint That's very good point -- since gas taxes are almost always ratcheted up, that makes the actual price of the gasoline even lower. Not that it makes it any easier for average Joes and Josephines to afford. It seems like every time there's a spike in gas prices, when the price starts to go down, the... »view 03/07/11

4 bsfootprint What exactly are "workers' rights", how are they different from employer (or anyone else's) rights, and what is the specific source of those "workers' rights"? »view 03/26/11
4 SiGraybeard (not verified) It's ironic that progressives sell as "progress" one of the oldest ideas on earth: "We're smarter and better than you - let us run everything." Good article at DR - thanks. »view 03/30/11
4 ZZMike (not verified) This is Southern California. I stopped at a gas station and saw the readout from the previous car: $123.52 for about 28 gallons. Must have been hi-test (around $4.2/Gal). I remember - not too long ago - when $123 would get you a whole month's worth of gas. Anybody want to bet that long about... »view 05/06/11

3 bsfootprint And yet, if you predict that Card Check (eliminating secret ballots for unionization) would increase union coercion, They Hate You. I smell hypocrisy! »view 03/22/11

3 bsfootprint And here's why gold, silver, and other commodities are rising and will continue to rise until the risk of economic catastrophe subsides: This is something hyperinflationist-skeptics never quite seem to grasp: In hyperinflation, asset prices don’t skyrocket—they collapse, both nominally and in... »view 04/11/11

3 damnitdave (not verified) All that being said about an Oz. of gold vs. galon of gas...fact or fiction?...and so what? How does this chart supposed to help the problem at hand? And if it could help I don't know who to trust or what to believe. I am but a simple man just trying to put food on the table and keep the lights on... »view 05/12/11
3 bsfootprint The chart doesn't help anything. Just trying to point out that the oil companies are bit players in the game being played out right now. The only things that will help reduce the "dollar cost" of fuel, as far as I can see: Somehow convince the Federal Reserve and the Treasury to stop destroying... »view 05/12/11
3 bsfootprint I was a teenager hitting adulthood when Carter Ford was trying to beat inflation by passing out W.I.N. buttons*. Honestly I don't know what's coming: inflation, deflation, stagnation, or just plain damnation... but it's starting to look like things are moving from bad to worse... Vent all you... »view 05/13/11
