August 15, 2012 by Mike Sauter
More than 10,000 people are killed each year in front-end crashes in the
United States. While most cars offer protection in front-end accidents,
overlap crashes, where the car is not hit head-on, are a different matter
entirely. Until now overlap crashes, which account for nearly one in four of
the front-end crashes involving serious or fatal injury to front seat
occupants, have not been tested by the government or other indepen... 阅读全帖 |

基本收入计划（芬兰和加拿大已经开始小规模尝试，美国的尼克松总统曾经试图推行，

Revolution as a child. I think her experiences in China mostly, if not all,
are fabricated, imagined, overly exaggerated or deliberately miss leading.
If one just read the media reports about her book, he/she may think that
media might just pick the sensational parts of the book and exaggerated a
little bit to help her to sell ... 阅读全帖 |

exactly is black, white, asian, hispanic.. a kid born today in america

Eight of the nine classes are hidebound by conventions, neofeudal and
neocolonial arrangements and a variety of false choices.
There are many ways to slice and dice America's power/wealth hierarchy. The
conventional class structure is divided along the lines of income, i.e. the
wealthy, upper middle class, middle class, lower middle class and the poor.
I've suggested that a more useful scheme is to view America through the lens

发帖数: 8550 | 46 穷人医改是让穷人从社会主义逼到资本主义：
现况：穷人看病不用钱，需要到医院看急诊。医院找国家买单。最后是纳税人(implicity)买全单。社会主义!!
社保后: Poor need to pay insurance premium, need to pay deductable, etc.
In summary, now poor don't need to pay and in the future the poor need to
pay some!
WHICH EQUALS:
社保前: Tax Payers pay ALL for the poors. 社会主义
社保后: Tax Payers only pay PORTIONS for the poors ( the total saving for all tax payer = total fees charged to the poors). 逼穷人到资本主义, and 逼穷人pay. 隐性国家支出 （纳税人支出） 转换成 显性纳税人premium & Tax 支出 ！ |

States across the nation rely on poor suckers to fund their spending. No, we
’re not talking about taxpayers – we’re talking about lottery ticket
purchasers. According to new studies, households earning $13,000 per year
spend almost $1,170 per year on lottery tickets – 9 percent of total income
. As it turns out, many people living in poverty make poor financial
decisions.
Yet states rely more and more on measures that target those people. Taxes on
cigarettes and alcohol ... 阅读全帖 |

发帖数: 29846 | 48 Extended Unemployment Benefits Slow Growth, Hoax on the Working Poor
Reinstating emergency unemployment benefits, as President Obama urges, would
slow growth and impose unconscionable burdens on the working poor.
State governments provide a basic benefit, averaging $300 per week for 26
weeks. During the Great Recession, Washington financed additional benefits
for as long as 99 weeks.
With the recovery in its 55th month, the emergency is over. Another
extension would make long-term benefits de fa... 阅读全帖 |

An ideological construct that exploits envy and resentment for political

February 10, 2016
Bruce Thornton
Bruce Thornton is a Shillman Journalism Fellow at the David Horowitz Freedom
Center.
Throughout this primary season, Hillary Clinton and self-proclaimed
socialist Bernie Sanders have both been flogging the “crisis” of “income
