I will always remember watching the first moon landing on TV as a young boy. Very special.

Yes, but you claimed that it was easy to shut down crappy charter schools. My point is it's not when they lie and they will lie to make money.

Finland has the best school system in the world and they aren't driven by the free market.

Are you claiming that teacher's don't have copays? Because that's patently false. How about before Obamacare when you could be kicked off your insurance roles for having a "pre-exi…

Most countries don't have a 21+ year old age limit on alcohol. It's actually a rather poor idea and harms 18/19/20 year olds who attend college and get busted drinking. It's pretty…

You need to be a responsible adult and talk to your children about pornography. If you don't trust them then you need to install a porn filter. But if you don't trust your kids, yo…

It's been reported that Dropbox is "coming soon" to PRISM. http://www.theatlanticwire.com/technology/2013/06/prism-comp...

This doesn't negate the fact that Toms makes a shitty product that fall apart easily, especially in the 3rd world. Have they never offered free shoes we wouldn't be talking about t…
