Is it too amorphous for that to practically ever happen? What laws would be invalidated under the Separation/Establishment Clause?

I am convinced at this point that Capitalism is a collection of myths and legends on par with the most superstitious aspects of organized religion.

Edited to add: yeah, I'm sure there could be negative consequences, too. I'm not sure what they would be, though.

Need I say more about this piece of shit study?

Scott Brown joins Todd Akin, Ann & Mitt Rmoney, and the long, long, impossibly long list of Republicans who have lost toes by shooting first and aiming second.

Find a foot prosthetic company and invest. Now.

Unless those voter suppression efforts succeed in keeping 10 million Americans from the polls, there's going to be a lot of business being done by those companies on November 7th!!!

I'm interested in figuring out how much food gets thrown out due to people not buying it.

It would present a much clearer picture from a whole new perspective of how wasteful America's food and grocery industry really is.

The ACA isn't what's going to destroy the finances of the working poor. It's the Individual Mandate. And this, too.

People were warned this was coming.

It is also safe to add that everyone responding to this will die of old age before Medicare for All is ever passed in America. That is, assuming it is ever passed in America.

The whole point of globalism is to eliminate American workers from the global market.

It exists for no other reason but to make workers poorer and to lower wages as far as they can go.

There is no other reason for global trade to exist.

THIS is what globalism is all about: driving wages down to $2 an hour. When you can no longer do this, all production becomes local and globalism utterly collapses, as it has no reason to continue existing.

TRAVERSE CITY, Mich. (AP) — Shortly after newly elected Rep. Dan Benishek arrived in Washington, staffers raised a banner that proclaimed to visitors in his Capitol Hill suite: "If you are here to ask for more money, you're in the wrong office!"

The message was fitting for a tea party favorite who had railed against federal spending and a "nanny-state mentality" during the 2010 campaign that led to a Republican takeover of the House. But it was something new for his constituents in northern Michigan, a largely rural area where a spirit of self-reliance coexists with the reality that government — popular or not — is a crucial economic player.

For decades, Michigan's 1st Congressional District elected representatives who sided with conservatives on social issues like abortion while energetically seeking federal dollars for local projects — most recently Bart Stupak, a Democrat who retired after nine terms.

But Benishek aimed to fully embrace the conservative ideal. And now after two years in office, he finds himself in an unusual predicament, a politician taking heat for staying true to his campaign rhetoric rather than failing to do so. Whether he wins a second term will offer clues about how well the less-government-is-better philosophy actually plays out in the countryside and small towns where the staunchly conservative movement has flourished.

ATHENS/MADRID (Reuters) - Demonstrators have clashed with police on the streets of Athens and Madrid in an upsurge of popular anger at new austerity measures being imposed on two of the euro zone's most vulnerable economies.

In some of the most violent confrontations on Wednesday, Greek police fired tear gas at hooded rioters hurling petrol bombs as thousands joined the country's biggest protest in more than a year.

The unrest erupted after nearly 70,000 people marched to the Greek parliament chanting "EU, IMF Out!" on the day of a general strike against further cuts demanded by foreign lenders.

"We can't take it anymore - we are bleeding. We can't raise our children like this," said Dina Kokou, a 54-year-old teacher and mother of four who lives on 1,000 euros ($1,250) a month.
