"The Kremlin has already been elevated to the status of global bogeyman by the CIA's assessment that it deliberately interfered in the U.S. vote to aid Mr. Trump". This criticism of the Kremlin by the United States is a wee bit hypocritical. After all this is a country (and an organization) which supposedly tried to send exploding cigars to Fidel Castro and then supported an ill fated invasion of Cuba at the Bay of Pigs. It interfered in the Chilean election of Salvador Allende resulting in the takeover by General Pinochet with detrimental results on the Chilean people. And what about the the weapons of mass destruction fiasco and the invasion of Iraq which has further destabilized the Middle East. It is also important to remember the United States, along with Canada and other western nations, sent troops into Russia during the Russian Civil War. An old aggression but one probably not forgotten. Is there really any difference between these activities and Mr. Putin's?

When you lose an election, you lose the ability to control policy. Trump, Carson and most Republicans are against public housing in principle. They think taxpayers should not have to pay rent for people who don't or can't pay their own rent. Carson is not really outside the mainstream on this. I don't actually see the problem with "I would not advocate putting a Muslim in charge of the country." I don't see that it's substantially different from "I would not advocate putting Donald Trump in charge of the country." In fact, I would not advocate putting Donald Trump in charge of the country, but I accept that the electorate disagreed with me. I don't have a problem with "Joseph built the pyramids to store grain," either. I don't see that it's a lot different from "Paul Revere rode to Lexington and Concord to alert the colonial militia that the Redcoats were coming." (In fact, Paul Revere was arrested on his way out of town and spent the night in the slammer.)

The high % of people polled concerned with possible Chinese "takeovers" of Canadian companies that make technology with military applications seems to rest on an old fear of China, as "other", or even as the "great yellow peril". There is ZERO evidence that China has any interest in militarily attacking Canada, the US, Europe, or large parts of Africa, the Middle East, and Asia. Like the US, and previous global empires such as those of the UK, France, the Incas, Turkey, ..., China wants to become a regional power that can keep its own regional empire safe. It is more likely to use economic than military means. Those people who raised issues about Chinese takeovers of such Canadian technology companies might want to look in the mirror, and ask themselves why they are so afraid of China, yet somehow are happy to have the US takeover the same companies. Given water and energy issues, we are far more likely to be attacked militarily by the US in the future.

"Men think of money as a river. As long as the flow coming in covers what is going out, all is okay. Women think of money as a lake. If the levels dips a bit, for any reason, there’s cause for concern." This is not a male/female thing. It is the difference between the frugal (who want to get value for the money they spend) and the spendthrifts. It is all about whether a person is embarrassed for being frugal because our society has targeted such people as being "cheap". The spendthrifts - probably over 80% of adults - are terrified about what "people will think" if they don't have something that advertisers tell them they are supposed to have.

As any True Catholic can tell you, the Church has moved beyond the words of Jesus over the past 2000 years. Too much emphasis on the teachings of Jesus is the heresy of sola scriptura. Gospel only counts where it supports the Traditions, Rites, Ritual, and Letter of Canon Law. We need only turn to the life of our Holy Father, Saint Pope Saint John Paul II the Great and Mighty, to understand the proper way to address child abuse by clerics is to obfuscate, argue definitions, apply obtuse reasoning, attack the victims, and if necessary lie, to protect the reputation of Holy Mother Church. Being the actions of a Holy and Saintly man, these reflect the Traditions of the Church. Gospel will just have to be ignored on this point.

But they are cutting this man's at-home assistance. That's a very real cut for him, and as he makes quite clear, it's a bad economic decision too. Nursing home care is far more expensive. Call it what you will. If I'm accustomed to a 3% annual raise and my boss drops it to 1%, it still feels like a cut to me, even though I'm making more money. Is that irrational? Probably. But it obscures the bigger problem: We end up paying regardless. We pay when people without insurance get treatment at the ER. We pay in lost productivity when people die young because they couldn't afford healthcare. We pay when our only expenditures are in curing diseases rather than preventing them. We pay A LOT in the economic insecurity and lack of investment that accompanies uncertainty in healthcare payments. We need to fix our healthcare system.

I-70 can't continue as is. It needs a rebuild and ideas on relocating I-70 through Denver aren't realistic. I-76 and I-270 aren't designed to handle half the traffic of I-70. They would need 3-4 more lanes in each direction and the environmental concerns with it aren't even discussed. Clear Creek runs parralel to 76 and Sand Creek runs parralel to 270, while 270 crosses the Platte the same as I-70. Considering the refineries and the water treatment plant are there, is it best to create a toxic zone? In my opinion, Globeville will be swallowed up by Denver properties expanding that direction anyway. The relocation and construction of a boulevard would be much more costly than the plan in place.

As I listened to lectures over and over from people in the Vancouver area I could think of little other than the Peace River Site C dam and hydro electricity project that British Columbia is engaged in despite protests. Where do they get the social license to do that? No one is doing large "hydro" projects any more, not anyone with a conscience, anyways. They are environmental disasters, even contributing substantially to green house gas emissions in their first decades, especially. They release other toxins, destroy ecosystems, and screw up rivers and riverine land . Frankly I felt angry about being lectured to by people who suddenly seem taken, not by ecological dangers, but by NIMBY.

However, from a lot of the things I've been hearing when people do call after a crime (car theft, burglary, etc are all crimes) and the victims are told the police won't be coming and they are given a link so they can file a claim with insurance or whatever. This victim may have been an upstanding citizen or he may not have been, either way he also may have figured the police wouldn't come. He also was probably dazed from the hit, scared they'd come back and was more worried with someone coming to pick him up and getting him somewhere safe than standing on the side of the road calling the police.
