But we have a free market, right?
The other day, The New York Times offered the story of Juliet Pries, who attempted to open an ice cream parlor in San Francisco:
Ms. Pries said it took two years to open the restaurant, due largely to the city’s morass of permits, procedures and approvals required to start a small business. While waiting for permission to operate,...

evilteabagger:
Thank you, minimum wage (among other things).
Are you young and looking for work? You’re in good company.
Just 54 percent of Americans ages 18 to 24 currently have jobs, according to a study released Thursday by the Pew Research Center. That’s the lowest employment rate for this age group since the government began keeping track in 1948. And it’s a sharp drop from the 62...

I knew it was inevitable the day that I started talking about feminism that one day, PZ Myers would open his gob to mount some manner of lazy and lackluster attack against me. He is a radical feminist who once claimed that when it came to gender issues men just need to “shut up and listen to women.” That’s a direct quote, by the way. He really said “shut up and listen to...

should write an email to Tumblr Support directing them to remove Ryking as an editor. He’s undeserving of that position. He constantly misuses and abuses his power. In the email, suggest to them that they add Mohandasgandhi as an editor for the politics tag. She’s far more knowledgeable and would be much more responsible with her position as an editor. Go. Do it. It’s not that...

I intended to unfollow you temporarily until you were done participating in the sanctimonious cyberbullying of a guy who has repeatedly apologized for what he said. He has offered no excuses, only one explanation (the heat of an 8-hour flame war) for his actions. But since you decided to make a public thing be a prick about it, I won’t...
