Hey, just because every job requires an entrepreneur, that doesn't mean they should profit from such behavior. Everyone knows that people create businesses so they can be boss and order the real workers around.

AMTRAK? As a model, maybe. Not a good one, because AMTRAK's railbeds were existing. HSR has no railbeds, and selecting them provokes NIMBYism, and calls out the Sierra
Club and others to protest the environmental damages they foresee. And after that, it gets really ugly...

North Africa democracy: not "can", "will". I suspect it's "not much, if any".

MSM Sheep: Another heaping helping of why we don't trust them.

IMHO, there are some things politicians shouldn't say:

1) suspend democracy while I'm in office until our problems are solved (Perdue);
2) the voters are confused when they haven't voted my way (Rylander Strayhorn, Cain).

"How Exercise Can Strengthen the Brain"

Thanks for the laugh. I can't help but picture the mice on their treadmills with tiny Nike sneakers and sweat towels.

Leonsis tells Obama to stop with the class warfare, but that didn't keep him from contributing to the President's re-election campaign. I suspect Obama will heed Leonsis's advice about as much as Leonsis would pay attention to the advice he might get from a lowly janitor in one of his companies, which is to say not at all. The way to make a self-centered, arrogant, know-it-all politician to pay attention to you is to withhold your campaign contributions. It makes them FOCUS.
