    Your trash doesn’t magically go away because it’s in the back of a garbage truck These people underpriced the competition by dumping on their own land, with no protection against bad stuff leaching into the soil, groundwater or runoff. We went to court

    “Give light, and the people will find their own way.” — E.W. Scripps When experts, government officials or journalists hide the truth because they don’t trust the reactions of the people, they sow the seeds of distrust that destroy their institutions—and eventually, society.

    A statement for the ages: Some medical experts "suggested that I not to talk publicly about herd immunity because people might become complacent .... But scientists shouldn’t try to manipulate the public by hiding the truth." via

    I wonder how many of them actually *listened* to the show Rush, at his best, framed abstract arguments in ways that made sense to folks in Flyover Country and made us laugh at the unclothed emperor-elites Over 30 years he made some mistakes. Me too. RIP

    And law en­force­ment reg­ularly ful­fills its prom­ise. In mil­lions of in­ter­actions be­tween po­lice and cit­i­zens each year, only a small frac­tion end badlly. So­ci­ety won’t sur­vive with­out the rule of law, and there can be no just law with­out jus­tice.

    Law en­force­ment is why we have gov­ernment in the first place. In a Hobbe­sian state of na­ture, the guy with the big­gest club kills you, takes your stuff & makes your fam­ily slaves. Law en­force­ment was the first gov­ern­ment func­tion, and it re­mains the most im­por­tant

    Police and the com­mu­nity aren’t on op­po­site sides, but on the same side—against vi­o­lence & crime but for peace, dig­nity & the rule of law. The iden­tity of the crim­i­nal is ir­rel­e­vant, whether a cor­po­rate ex­ec­u­tive or gang­ster, po­lice of­fi­ce or dope dealer.

    Of course they do. What we’re seeing this week is an argument for having *many* sources of energy and resilience in the grid. What it is not: proof that one energy source is inherently and always “best.” Everybody, please check your confirmation bias.

    Also, power outages happen in bad weather. That has always been a thing, no matter the energy source.

    For decades, the Fed’s job was to preserve the dollar as a store of value against inflation. Under Clinton, it was urged to add full employment—a second mission. Biden is now jettisoning inflation in favor of employment. We will regret the profligacy.
