Hmmm...I don't believe I've said or asserted anything "Anti-Apple" or "Anti-Tesla" in this discussion. I've not denigrated the Tesla Product. I've questioned the need for a $7,500 tax credit and I've taken issue with the idea that all car dealers are bad. I did state that I've come to understand that Tesla devotees and Apple devotees share the same defensive posture when it comes to what they choose to buy. Zealots are Zealots whether it's Religion or Material Things. I don't care what you choose to buy.

I bet you you are going to lose money on this one. What kind of sadistic psycho would want to kill cubs of any specie. So you want to manage YOUR lands, FEDERAL LANDS, mind you, to benefit hunters. Well, I don't. I don t like hunters, unless they are subsistence hunters, and the State of Alaska is a mighty poor substitute for God, don't you think? If I say you were all bought, would you agree? You chose wrong and to benefit the wrong kind of person. You will regret this, and we will see to it that what is happening there gets to those contemplating tourism. BC,CA , however, thinks this matter in a totally different way. BC says: The BCDNP is committed to banning the trophy hunting of grizzly bears. We have introduced legislation that would ensure stable funding and planning for wildlife and habitat management. We will build a bigger and stronger destination tourism industry while supporting First Nations and hunters to put food on their tables.SEE? That's how honorable people do it.

"... suggested that his upcoming tax bill could force changes to 401(k) plans and other retirement accounts ..." If you ever had any doubts about the GOP's indifference to the middle class, this should settle it. . "This political caution is infuriating some Republicans, who feel too many details are being kept secret too late in the process." Welcome to the real world, GOP legislators, because now you understand how your electorate feels. Of course, secrecy is what killed "Replace & Repeal," so maybe it will also work here. . "The comments by Brady and Hatch show the immense pressure that congressional leaders are under to find new revenue to offset some of the sweeping tax cuts Trump has promised." Perhaps they could start with cuts to spending, but despite their oft-stated agenda, they've never done anything meaningful. In their own way, they're just as eager to spend as Democrats!

Indeed, those of us who supported President Obama had the rather naive idea that electing a President who shared our political/economic/social values AND who happened to be an AfricanAmerican just might help end the "racial divide" which has been present in the US since pre-colonial days. Boy, were we ever wrong. Instead, his election brought forth a tidal wave of racist rants...millions of internet posts....from individuals who saw the election of a Black President as "license" to share their racial hatred. Are we more racially divided than before President Obama's election....yes, I fear we are. Is it his fault? YES, it is...It's his fault for thinking (and our fault for supporting) the ideal that someone can actually be BLACK and be PRESIDENT.......It's our fault for underestimating the level of racial hatred which still exists among many Americans. If you condemn my statements as hyperbole, try Googling "racist rants against President Obama"

Many places have ordinances requiring buried power distribution lines in new development subdivisions with multiple lots. It's more expensive, yes, but far easier to implement at the time of construction and the costs are passed on to the new homeowner. It virtually eliminates maintenance and outages at the end point and improves the aesthetics and property valuation. I think most people up here have come to accept that there will be at least a few notable power outages every year as a result of ice/snow, electrified squirrels, wind, fallen branches and random acts of the universe, but there's a lot of room for improvement both from a performance (maintenance cost/reliability) standpoint as well as a forward thinking development perspective. One thing's for sure, though, Anchorage is one ugly city from a visible utility line point of view.

Political philosophy 101 "If you are not willing to pay for it with increased taxes you do not believe in it". Regardless of tweets or media barbs or verbal boasting my generation has screwed over our kids and grandkids generation with false pretensions and monumental debt. We have been at war for 15 years and as a middle class taxpayer I have never paid a federal tax rate over 15% which is ridiculously low. The WWII generation knew that when you went to war you paid for it & would have been stunned at the arrogance of people trying to claim they are pro war when they give themselves a tax cut. Verbal diatribes mean nothing. Unfortunately the media think verbal boasting means the candidate has "vision" and is "exciting ". Trump has no commitment to infrastructure other than to put the bill on the shoulders of future generations.

All successful countries having public schools does not mean that public schools cause successful countries. Your local teachers must have been on strike during Causation vs Correlation day. If you need me, with my low-rent homeschool education, to explain that to you, I will. Here, pay attention: the death penalty is legal in America. America is successful. That doesn't mean that the death penalty is the cause of the aforementioned success. See I just educated you, and I didn't even ask for a $100,000/year pension. The cause for the boom in the 50s was not a bunch of government handouts. There were huge inroads made in the fields of industry, energy and technology . There was also less competition from other nations (hint hint, our country didn't get bombed the decade prior).

There won't be church left. Don't they realize most young people simply can't understand the idea of excluding women? For my grandkids the only exclusions they find reasonable are physical such as strength in order to be a Ranger in the army or a fireperson yet women are even challenging those things. The young people are not staying with the Church and I can see why. They like the social good Pope Francis is pushing but the idea of women being unequal is too much for them. It's simply a showstopper, something like saying the earth is flat. The old men of the Church can't see that the young have left those kind of ideas behind and churches that espouse them also.

Perhaps you think so, kramnot. I'm not so sure. A lot of Americans have NOT lost confidence in one institution: the courts. They're doing the job they were established to do. Trump doesn't like it. Darn, eh? Media? It's doing its job, too...holding the Pres.'s feet to the fire--and it's pushing Spicer's feet into the flames, too (pretty hot time at the White House press room recently, when Spicer made a statement so outrageous it convulsed every reporter in the room--read today's editorial). Trump doesn't like that, either. As an institution, the American government is pretty good, I think, when it is allowed to go to work. That was tough in Obama's day--Congress was a barrier. There's a new barrier to an efficient, effective government that GETS THINGS DONE: The President himself. The White House fights fires daily. In response to external flashpoints? When it has time. The chief arsonist sits in the oval office. Like Nero. Result: eventual loss of confidence.

Precisely. The Constitution, as amended, forbids the government from engaging in prior restraint upon the rights specifically protected by the Constitution. What is true of the 1st is just as true regarding the 2nd. When you abuse your right of free speech to harm the equal rights of another, you are subject to penalty for your abuse. What the anti-gun activists seek to do is restrain the ability to own and bear arms prior to any abuse of the right occurring. From the ratification of the Constitution until 1986 a citizen in this Union could own the very same arms issued to the armed forces by the general government. Today a citizen may only own certain arms if they were manufactured before a certain date. A citizen may own an M-16 manufactured in 1985, but not one manufactured in 1987. How this avoids the prohibition proscribed in the Constitution that the right to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed defies any logical explanation.

I get the holding the contractors feet to the specs. Been there, and done that. That said, there have been instances where everything has been followed to a "T", and it still fails. I too, have been a contracts administrator, and combination field supervisor. One job that we did in the Palmer area was a fish passage culvert. We followed the engineers plans. Both the contractor, and myself saw flaws within the design and elevations of the stream bed. Those concerns were brought up, but the powers that be said follow the plans period. This was Federal money, and the specifications were not to be questioned. The stream bed elevations were not right, and 2 years later the whole project was washed away by a typical high water event in the fall. At times, engineers can be wrong. If they aren't physically tied to the project, they can't see what the reality is on the ground, versus what they have specified. Arrogance has sunk more than one project in this State, and will do so again in time.
