Using the past to justify future decisions while blowing off projected costs is not looking at the facts. I'd like to see a comparison on the energy costs from various sources over the lifetime of an energy plant. And that should include price changes such as PV module costs that have seen a decline of around 30% since the first Q of 2016 and the fact that a rise in see level of say 10 feet (Greenland alone to contribute 20 feet) is likely to impose costs on human society in the hundreds of trillions of dollars (flooded cities and port facilities, reduced trade, much greater refugee flows, etc. leading to much higher likelihood of war). Those too are facts revealed by science- the same science that allowed the development of the advanced technologies we live with today. Yes- oil and gas have provided hundreds of trillions of benefits but now the costs are mounting and we have to develop alternatives that wont destroy us. | 0 | not toxic |

As a private company Netflix is under no obligation to explain to anyone how they plan to spend their money. As a consumer you are under no obligation to buy their product. Somehow I find it hard to believe that making uniquely Canadian programmes will encourage more people to subscribe. The CBC has been at this for years, as has the private networks, and the duds beat the successes every time. The field is simply too crowded for stand alone Canadian content to succeed.

Most, if not all, of PERS problems were self inflicted wounds by the PERS Board in good investment return years, where ALL of the gains over the 8% goal were given that year to those on the PERS system. Not a penny was reserved for down years for investment returns. The Obama foot on the neck of the Fed to keep interest low so he could deficit spend with minimal interest punished any and all who were saving or invested in their retirements. Only PERS has a minimum annual return guarantee, and zero obligation to leave any returned over the minimum in the reserves: Public employees get the gains, and the taxpayers get the underages to make up. I don't think that is a contract, because a contract has to treat each party with parity. I don't think taxpayers are fairly represented in that scenario. Unintended consequences, windfall gains, and losses infilled by the taxpayers. The only answer I can see is to pare the size of government, payouts to persons and entities. | 0 | not toxic |

A very deep pool of talent exists in Canada. Employers just refuse to engage with it. When HR goes onto campus these days (and they don't often), they don't bring their engineers to recruit other engineers. They bring their HR bureaucrats, who ask completely irrelevant "behavioural" questions which have no bearing on a graduate's ability to do a technical job. They try to figure out where a graduate might fit into some rigidly defined salary chart, rather than being flexible and willing to pay up for talent. Any Canadian employer that can't recruit and retain top-notch talent really only has themselves to blame, because there's so much talent created in Canada who would love to work in Canada if not for the lack of jobs, and the lack of a professional environment. | 0 | not toxic |

I agree. Nothing will get "better" (according to your understanding of the term) until black folks learn to be silent while white folks walk on 'em, speak when spoken to, go back to working for nothing, and allow white folks to tell 'em what to think.
This will then allow a tiny powerful minority among the white folks to focus on forcing the rest of their fellows to be silent while being walked on, speak when spoken to, work for nothing and be told what to think. Judging from the posts in here, said powerful minority is halfway there on that last... | 0 | not toxic |

You have a great day respectfully MORRI, it's been a pretty good discussion, or at least I think so. We may disagree, but isn't it great when it can be done with a civility and personal respect for others, for too often today, that is often found missing in many public forums. It's in this vein of thought, I wish to thank you for extending that courtesy to me, and I hope that although we disagree, you found my replies to be equally as respectful.

Around 60% of tax paid in SA is from Companies and Individuals. This is the lifeblood of this economy and it gets wasted like this. If someone in your house wasted your hard earned money what do you do, sit by and watch them abuse it - no you will take action - so why is there no tax revolt here. It's because the pillagers know that the tax paying public are caught between a rock and a hard place and can't move in any direction....until we stop the flow of funds to these miscreants we might as well sit by and watch this beautiful country of ours burn like marshmellows on sticks over a hot flame..... | 0 | not toxic |

And once again, the fact that Sanders should have caught the ball doesn't change the fact that it was a bad throw. Both things can be true.
I can't believe you honestly looked at it again. Are you SURE we're talking about the same play: 3rd & 4 at our 11, 5:19 left before half? The ONLY reason Sanders was moving left to right, was because he was adjusting to the ball. He was absolutely NOT coming across the field as part of his rout.
I JUST notice that you think that Sanders "caught it in stride". Huh? That's as black & white wrong as claiming it wasn't a go rout.
You're also wrong about the catch. He was falling because of the adjustment he made to the ball, VERY similar to the way Dez Bryant was falling, which is why his play against Green Bay ALSO wasn't a catch. No matter how many steps a player takes after the ball arrives, they don't merit a "football move", if he'd already lost his balance, & was inevitably going to the ground. But at least this one's more of a judgement call. | 0 | not toxic |

Well, the easy part is done. Our noble legislative bodies are taking out the easy pieces of out budget crisis. Taking money away from the poor and needy has throughout human been the easiest part of good governance. Now, having dealt with a haircut for the most needy and deserving, when, we can ask, will we stop writing checks to oil companies and multinational conglomerates, and when will we place reasonable and fair taxes on incomes and special treatment interest groups like fisheries, mining, and coal extraction, which have done well on State largesse?

You don't, that's why I made those qualifications in the post. But we can't be paralyzed by inaction over the fact that our knowledge cannot ever be perfect. We have to do the best we can, and create the best policies we can, with the information at our disposal.
Philosophy takes care of ensuring that "best we can" part, but it can't guarantee the "information at our disposal" part.
Cows can fly
Jersey's are cows.
Therefore Jersey's can fly.
Perfectly logical - but the conclusion is false because a premise was false.
Bats can fly.
Bats are mammals.
Therefore all mammals can fly.
In this case both premises are true - but the conclusion is false, because I didn't follow the laws of logic properly. Specifically I am guilty of the composition/division fallacy - assuming that what's true of part of a set must be true of the whole set. If I remove the word 'all' then this is both logical and true - mammals can indeed fly (even if most can't). | 0 | not toxic |

A carbon tax simply won't fly with the tory base. History shows that the social conservatives can concede some of their right wing ideals, but the buck stops at taxes. Lisa Raitt is looking more and more like a big tent Tory leader, with a focus on reducing taxes, reducing government waste and preserving or improving health care. She's from the East Coast, has a GTA riding, and has a tax policy plan that would appeal to the prairies.

Trump, and now his administration, have been targeted for well over a year for many of the positions well known to Americans. In spite of this, Americans and their voting system supported him. A decision of the world's strongest democracy. Some criticism has been justified but much of it has been borderline delusional hysteria.
The age of giving a free pass to those who claim to be refugees has come to an abrupt end. This is based on events of 2015 and 2016, and before, that have taken place internationally and domestically. It targets countries at war with terrorism that need assistance defeating it. It begins by implementing security at their borders. It is inconvenient. It can be unfair and unreasonable but it is an implement now and correct later policy. It is also a policy that will unlikely be overturned no matter which Party is in power in the future- the beneficiaries of the government that had to do the dirty work. | 0 | not toxic |

If I allow someone to get drunk in my house, or place of business, am I not responsible for the actions of that individual after they leave? So, in these safe injection sites the user will simply get 'high' and return to the bushes or go somewhere to get more drugs. Its more than likely they will resort to criminal activity to get them. How much responsibility will the Injection sites take for that? Assuming they were going to get high anyway is not a very good excuse. I don't think.

Yes I agree Russel. It could start in the United States on a state basis requiring priests and pastors to have professional licenses to ensure minimum ethical conduct. As a physician my knowledge of medicine and my understanding of science is not modified by this licensing procedure. So for a religious to say that would not be possible because to the separation of Church and State is ridiculous. Think it time for even popes to stand trial in the Hague for their lack of ethical over reach in these despicable attacks on children, teenagers, women and men. Our Church turned its official head to Rape of children, Teens, women and sometimes men. In most states it is unethical for a physician to have a physical relationship with an adult patient until it has been seven year after treatment. Why can not this secular ethical principle be applied to clergy. It should have been, now it is too late. They should be, and one day, will be licensed by civil authorities. | 0 | not toxic |

He alludes to climate change by saying "Today, these fires are fueled by record-breaking summer heat, just as Hurricane Harvey was fueled by record high ocean temperatures."

Lets say my great great grandmother was pure black but married a White guy and all the offspring were white and they married other Whites and had more White babies then I come out White and claim to be black.
