There’s an article on Sierra Nevada’s upcoming drop tests at Dryden, in which Yours Truly is cited, at the Denver Post.

Interview With Elon
By Michelle Fields, at NextGen TV.
The IRS Scandal
The real one, not the ones being promulgated by leftist journalists ignorant of the law:
The real scandal is that all these complicated tax rules exist. If we would just eliminate the corporate income tax, then people could organize groups, or not, just as they please. And the IRS would not be in the position of deciding what counts as excessive political activity.
Yes. The corporate income tax is an abomination, on many levels, and one of the causes of slowed economic growth.
Swarthmore
This war on fossil fuels is economically insane.
ObamaCare
I suspect that as the administration’s credibility continues to unravel from all of the scandals, its signature achievement will be viewed even more skeptically, and be more amenable to simply being repealed, along with the rest of its misbegotten “achievements.”
Wayne Hale
…is looking for input on his upcoming Congressional testimony. Here’s my suggestion: Tell them that they worry too much about mission safety, and too little about actually opening up and developing space.
The ObamaCare Tax
…is scaring the daylights out of some small business owners.
I’m sure worried about it, as someone who is self employed. All I want is a simple catastrophic policy, but I may not be able to afford it, if it’s even available at all.
A Commercial Quantum Computer
Beats the pants off a conventional PC. This technology may move faster than we’ve previously expected.
IRS Implications
I’m suspecting that a lot of Democrats are going to come to regret, sooner than later, making the IRS a central player in #ObamaCare.
[Update a few minutes later]
The Tea Party handed Obama a historical ass kicking in 2010 and he decided to weaponize the IRS against them because of it. Simple as that

OK, you wanted a link? Here‘s a link to several.
I like this:
Government investigators have found that the Internal Revenue Service scrutinized conservative groups for raising political concerns over government spending, debt and taxes or even for advocating making America a better place to live, according to new details likely to inflame a widening IRS controversy.
Emphasis mine.
How subversive. They are history’s monsters.
The Gas Can
How government wrecked it:
I’m pretty alert to such problems these days. Soap doesn’t work. Toilets don’t flush. Clothes washers don’t clean. Light bulbs don’t illuminate. Refrigerators break too soon. Paint discolors. Lawnmowers have to be hacked. It’s all caused by idiotic government regulations that are wrecking our lives one consumer product at a time, all in ways we hardly notice.
It’s like the barbarian invasions that wrecked Rome, taking away the gains we’ve made in bettering our lives. It’s the bureaucrats’ way of reminding market producers and consumers who is in charge.
At some point, in ways large and small, people will revolt.
