An interesting article on the changing business model.

The War On Salt
It’s time to end it.
I continue to try to limit my own sodium intake, because it does seem to affect my blood pressure, but trying to extrapolate from individuals with salt sensitivity to the general population is a fool’s errand based on junk science. Of course, a lot of the power mongers out there, like Mike Bloomberg, are unfortunately fools as well.
If You Wouldn’t Trust A Teacher With A Gun
Why would you trust them alone with small children?
The left has become completely deranged over guns.
Because it’s not about guns. It’s, as always, about control. As long as we keep our guns, they know they’ll never get it.
Curbing Gun Violence
…by legalizing drugs.
It will never happen though, because they won’t give up the opportunities for graft.
Some Opinions On Gun Control
A lot of people have them, but Larry Correia’s are particularly worth reading, for those willing to be rational on the subject.
You Can’t Save Gun Control
…with word games.
But word games are all they have, really. There are certainly no facts or logic involved.
Property Rights In Space
My article has been Slashdotted.
You’ll be as shocked as I was to notice that very few if any of the commenters actually read the piece.
The “Claim The Moon” White House Petition
“Why I did it.”
It’s a dumb reason. He provides reasons why someone might want to claim the moon, but none for why anyone else should pay any heed whatsoever to such a claim.
Even ignoring the fact that it would be a blatant violation of the Outer Space Treaty, there is no traditional or even historical basis on which the nation could claim the entire body, nor is it necessary. Even if we could get an international consensus that off-planet property rights, or even sovereignty claims, are a good thing, we have to establish some criteria for making such claims beyond the fact that we stuck a flag on it four decades ago. Traditional claims, at least in modern times, involve actually occupying and improving the claim. For the U.S. to claim the entire moon without having even bothered to do anything significant on any part of it for almost half a century would rightly be viewed as almost as ludicrous as the Eros claim a few years back. It’s a planet too far.
Post Newtown
The witch hunt begins.
It’s very clear that the accusations of law-abiding gun owners is just more leftist projection. They are emotionally violent and hate their enemies and want them dead, and so they imagine that everyone else is just like them.
