Socialism: Right Idea, Wrong Species | Notes From Babel
https://notesfrombabel.wordpress.com/2011/03/29/socialism-right-idea-wrong-species
Socialism: Right Idea, Wrong Species. Jason Brennan, discussing G.A. Cohen’s Why Not Socialism? 160; shares an interesting thought experiment. Cohen concludes that the camping trip was better when the campers acted like socialists. When the campers act like capitalists, the trip becomes stifling and repulsive. As I posted in the comments to that post, the problem with socialism, and specifically with Cohen’s camping trip, is that equality is a lie. Even by the terms of Cohen’s thou...They have unequal ...
What Book Publishers Failed to Learn from the Music Industry’s Reluctant Conversion to Digital | Notes From Babel
https://notesfrombabel.wordpress.com/2011/03/28/what-book-publishers-failed-to-learn-from-the-music-industrys-reluctant-conversion-to-digital
What Book Publishers Failed to Learn from the Music Industry’s Reluctant Conversion to Digital. Court relied on the industry’s expert’s testimony to conclude that the ‘record company plaintiffs have already expended considerable funds and efforts to commence Internet sales and licensing for digital downloads,’ and thus Napster was precluded from entering this market.[5]. On the book publishing front, more and more authors are finding the self-publication alternative not only viable, but superior. Eis...

The Audacity of Reason: Obama Wants Revenue Increases?
http://theaudacityofreason.blogspot.com/2012/11/obama-wants-revenue-increases.html
Tuesday, November 20, 2012. Obama Wants Revenue Increases? President Obama made an interesting comment about his purported willingness to compromise on a tax plan that involves "revenue increases" during a news conference last week:. However, his prior statements suggest President Obama refuses to acknowledge the historic fact that increasing capital gains taxes decreases. Revenue, while decreasing it actually increases. President Obama answered with mindblowing obstinance. And you can't do that for free.
Efficiency vs. Protectionism | Criticism As Inspiration

Most of the trouble in the world is caused by people wanting to be important. – T.S. Eliot. Laquo; I’m happy that the Supreme Court upheld the Individual Mandate. How much government is too much? Efficiency vs. Protectionism. September 5, 2012 by Mark. I was recently catching up on some reading and was caught by a section in my BusinessWeek called, “What Works in the USA”. The one that stood out to me was about Philadelphia’s Savings in Fleet Management. The difficulty I can see similar efforts facing is...

The Audacity of Reason: Obama Wanted Criminal Trial for bin Laden
http://theaudacityofreason.blogspot.com/2012/10/obama-wanted-criminal-trial-for-bin.html
Wednesday, October 3, 2012. Obama Wanted Criminal Trial for bin Laden. An upcoming book indicates that President Obama wanted to provide Osama bin Laden with a criminal trial if captured alive. If true, this is further evidence that Obama views terrorism as a criminal matter, rather than an act of war. According to the AP. Well, Mr. President, military justice is. Would any subsequent confession be deemed inadmissible for failure to do so? Would we "out" our intelligence assets (or, should I say, more.

The Audacity of Reason: December 2012
http://theaudacityofreason.blogspot.com/2012_12_01_archive.html
Friday, December 14, 2012. Tell Watson to Buy Her Own Bacon! Don't think President Obama is using federal spending to buy votes? Well, the recipients of his generosity with our money sure do. Detroit Councilwoman JoAnn Watson publicly argued that President Obama owes the City of Detroit a bailout. Or, as she phrases it, "some bacon." Why? Because Detroit voters supported Obama. Here's the money quote:. And yet, Watson wants the rest of us to pay the price. Well, I think we should tell her no. Tell Watson...

The Audacity of Reason: June 2011
http://theaudacityofreason.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
Wednesday, June 22, 2011. Bush's "Decision Points": in Defense of a Presidency. Love him or hate him, President George W. Bush's memoirs have an important place in the historical record and are a must-read for those who wish to understand the tumultuous past decade of American history. Of course, the book does not lack flaws. I looked forward to his thoughts on the Valerie Plame incident, but no mention was made. He also tried to defend his credentials as a fiscal conservative which is, well, an ...Despi...

The Audacity of Reason: October 2011
http://theaudacityofreason.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
Tuesday, October 11, 2011. Dear "Rich Kid for Redistribution": Just shut up and give it away. This girl epitomizes the problem with so many wealthy statists (and those who pretend to be, as I'm guessing is the case here). She purportedly deplores the fact that she has money, and she chooses to do.well, nothing about it. If she really wants her money to go to the less fortunate, then why doesn't she just give it away? I have money that I don't need, so I want to help the less fortunate! Ryan T. Darby.

The Audacity of Reason: Verizon Proves That Markets Still Work
http://theaudacityofreason.blogspot.com/2011/12/verizon-proves-that-markets-still-work.html
Friday, December 30, 2011. Verizon Proves That Markets Still Work. Yeah, you'd better hear me now! Verizon Wireless recently agitated hordes of customers by announcing plans to impose a $2.00 fee for single online or telephone payments. Well, the thousands of customer complaints Verizon likely received has compelled the company to disconnect this fee plan. No government strong man was necessary to coerce Verizon's actions; it acted in its own interest, which happens to be satisfying its customers. Econom...

The Audacity of Reason: September 2011
http://theaudacityofreason.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
Thursday, September 15, 2011. And she wants to control MORE of our tax dollars? Sen Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) announced that her campaign war chest was "wiped out" by treasurer Kinde Durkee. Ms Durkee faces federal charges for allegedly plundering hundreds of thousands —if not millions. 8212;of dollars from Democratic candidates throughout California. Oddly enough, Sen. Feinstein does not know how much money Ms. Durkee stole from her. Why not? Because, according to Politico.com:. Posted by Ryan T. Darby.

Notes from a Young Journalist
Notes from a Young Journalist. This blog follows the early career of a young journalist, Janine Armstrong. Monday, February 28, 2011. Is It A Young Journalist Thing, Or Is It Just Me? I noticed something that I do every time I contact someone for an interview. I always make a script. I state my name, the newspaper, and the nature of my call. I also tailor my script to fit different scenarios, like if I get the person's voice mail. Is this just a young journalist thing, or is it just me? If an event is ha...

I ended up using Piktochart to create the infographic 10 benefits of educational blogging. As a whole, the class has helped me to realize the var...

Notes from the Back Row:
Notes from the Back Row:. My thoughts about what I'm watching, reading, and hearing in this media-driven world. Sunday, January 26, 2014. I'm Just a Ragamuffin. Mullins story is one of disappointment and pain, of a painful and dysfunctional family relationship, and of a heart that only God ever understood. I guess his story isn't that much different than a lot of people's stories. Aren't we all just one step away from falling flat on our faces? Wednesday, January 22, 2014. The Black List (NBC).

notes from bahrain | Watching an uprising from the sidelines
November 29, 2011. After the BICI report. Filed under: Bahrain crackdown. 8212; notesfrombahrain @ 9:36 am. Nothing has changed in this country yet, but, alhamdullilah, at least an internationally recognized commission has provided some validity to their struggle and to the atrocities that have occurred here. Everyone is hopeful that it will make a difference, but all the cards are still held by one very powerful family. We can only hope they will do the right thing at this crossroads. May 17, 2011.

Notes from the basement
Notes from the basement. Monday, January 4, 2010. It's not like I hung out with the guy. Bob was usually found sitting on a milk crate by the loading dock rolling tobacco into paper. Even the mornings I came in at six, he'd be planted there puffing away, raising his hand as I walked past. Conversation was limited to his chuckling when Gil insulted my cooking, or talking about the Jazz with Thomas Jackson while he sorted the dishes and put them back on the shelves. That was the end of Robert Burdick.

Notes from Beach Birdie's Nest. Monday, January 11, 2010. Not sure why this page is here twice, seems to be a problem lately. Having lots of fun with my Graphically Speaking Cart!
