    They have a HUGE bias, I doubt anything coming out of them is the actual truth. There are around 500,000 minke whales (the type they hunt) in the Antarctic, Japanese whaling kills …

    We are reaching a tipping point in society. The issue of the "unemployable" class is becoming an issue now. What do we do when someone is not skilled enough to do complex jobs but …
