…or how Dilbert won the war. Though actually, credit has to go to the pointy-haired boss.
I think this also explains a lot about why we haven’t made much progress in space.

An interesting discussion of Obama’s glamour problem, and the perversities of health care.
John Hare has some interesting speculations on how a Masten/XCOR team might reduce costs to orbit.
I’m seeing tweets from the ISDC that Jeff Greason is saying Lynx rollout and flight tests are about a year from now.
This is interesting:
XCOR has plans to develop an orbital vehicle.
Jeff has been saying that he has some ideas along those lines. I wonder how much he’s revealing publicly?
[Update a while later]
A lot more XCOR tweets over at Space Transport News.
This is way cool. It looks like it tosses itself up, and then catches itself with the thrust.
…to have a president wise enough to know how much money we should all have.
For all these wealth gluttons, I have a suggestion: stop earning any more money for the next two years. Since most of you voted for him anyway, grant the president his wish. Stop.
Withdraw all your money from all investments. Shutter your stores, restaurants, factories, movie studios, banks and financial brokerages. Evict all tenants from your apartment buildings and shopping centers, and board the buildings up. Invent nothing, bring no products to market, write no books and hire no one. Stop adding to your unjust, unfair, beyond-the-point income or wealth. Take a vacation. File next year’s federal, state and local tax returns with big, fat zeroes written on the payment-due lines.
While you’re at it, buy as little as possible too. After all, at other times, the president has indicated he thinks many of us keep our homes too warm or too cool, drive around too much (on under-inflated tires), eat too much salty food, buy ‘Cadillac’ health plans that are too good. He has a point of too much in mind about everything. He is the Decider of your too-much. Everybody at the too-much point could relieve him of a lot of worry by spending nearly nothing for the next two years.
I wonder if he thinks he has enough, or too much?
Some cheery thoughts from Marc Faber.
Only a Harvard professor could be surprised that when government grows, private enterprise shrinks. Well, OK, that’s not fair. Lots of schools could have professors who would be shocked at that. And at least the business school professor finds it concerning.
The country is being run by blatant liars and charlatans.

So, now the Donkeys and “liberals” think that “ObamaCare” is a pejorative? When did that happen? I thought that once they passed it, we were all going to love it. Now they don’t want to take creditblame for it?
I like the suggestion of one commenter that we call it National Socialist Healthcare.
California’s insane “go it alone” “green” energy policy is going to damage the state’s economy. But the idiots keep going into the voting booth and reelecting these morons.
