Any particular reason the NW corner of Scania is so right wing? There are other rural areas in Scania that are far more balanced.

Hyperfeminismland ftw. But it would be nicer with male sex slaves, which would also help sustain population level.

I am not sure why you think a radical feminist matriarchy would have such a negative attitude towards heterosexual activity. If women controlled society 100% the male sexual exploitation they are against would disappear.

If women had "indentured male servants" why wouldn't they use them for sex?

That's a little scary.

And more than we need to know about his her fetishes.

Partly joking here and partly trying to be analytical.

If you give one gender complete control sexual exploitation of the other gender is inevitable.

All the countries are horrible, but if I should chose one I would prefer the option where my gender was in control. Its less freaky than my race having all the power. And the two other options are unacceptable to me. A police state and a plutocracy would both be too oppressive for a freedom loving person like me. So I am left with choosing between two versions where I get to be free, but others are oppressed.  

1. No, its an opinion.

2. Correct for Social Democracy. Regarding genuine socialism: If the means of productions are held by society its societies money, so no. Socialists would claim workers create the values so its their money, not the capitalists.

3. NO, scientific proof suggests otherwise and you can fight climate change with market based solutions.

Why don't they unite?

Indeed. Why not? Everything would be so much better.

Just so awful. Thoughts and prayers to all those in affected.

And people talking about diet and exercise in this situation are being way too cynical.

What we're doing now is far too expensive. We have the world's most expensive healthcare system, by far. All the universal healthcare countries get the job done far more cheaply.

This.

Healthcare is an area where the market doesn't work well because you need insurance companies as middle men and that distorts the market mechanism. So in this particular case government allocation is actually cheaper.

I think its a no-go:

- It would be an even bigger break with Christian culture than gay marriage (which can be seen as just another version of the nuclear family).

- Feminists will fight polygamy, most of them support gay marriage.

- In Europe it would be seen as a kowtow to Islamists, this reaction would also exist in the rest of the Western world, but be a little weaker there.

- Polyandri would be too radical an idea for society - its a step towards matriarchy.

I think many interests would come together to fight it and that coalition would be stronger than the one against gay marriage.

EDIT: Gay marriage is in a way not that radical, because the gay partner can just take the same legal and social role as the straight partner in a traditional marriage. This would have far greater legal, economic and social consequences.

I'm okay, folks! We had to take shelter, and the hail busted Grandma's back windshield.  My car was spared.  We took shelter at the church, which is underground, but no carport or covering.

Good to hear you and your loved ones are okay.

I can provide links if anybody cares.  (ya usually don't)

Pls do.

A tornado watch will be issued soon for much of Oklahoma and parts of north Texas. Stay alert! We expect storms to start developing between now and 2pm

Nobody else here is from that area.  Who is "we"?

Yes, he has a habit of that.  We, of the cognoscenti, however, avoid this behavior.

Plz keep it in English, this is interesting stuff for us honkies as well.

71 percent of voters said Hashimoto's comments were "inappropriate" against 21 percent who said the comments were "appropriate".

Obviously 21% is still ridiculously high, but I do wonder what it looks like broken down by age group.

Not sure it will be the way you expect. Young people with little knowledge about WW2 may well be more positive.

Icelandic language is weirdest language.

Why? Icelandic has a complex grammar, but less complex than, say, most Caucasian languages. But apart from that its a fairly "standard" Indo-European language. It has no real dialects, so it doesn't fit the description in the OP.

I guess the point is 1) Snowguy (and his ilk, like his useful idiot Torie) don't know what they are talking about when it comes to climate change, and they are as wrong and clueless as Palin was about, well - most everything, and 2) if we don't embrace the Green Revolution right this instant, and throw trillions at it, we are all going to die, or suffer grievously..

I know this is an old thread and you are being polemical here, but the idea that doing something about climate change is going to be extremely costly is plain wrong. Seen in a long term perspective the costs will be relatively limited. Not doing anything will be far more costly.

The changes related to creating a sustainable economy will create business opportunities in new industries (and is already doing so) and avoid economic loss related to loss of agricultural land, flooding, desert spread etc. in the future. Its economically prudent and vital for long term growth to do something about climate change.

The whole "this is just doomsday preaching" line is tiresome. 

Climate change will increase the over all conflict level in the world and make living conditions worse for large parts of the world, but we are obviously not all going to die. This demonising of concern for climate change as alarmist and Armageddon prophecies is plain wrong. We are talking about a rational estimation of a problem and its potentially very serious consequences, not doomsday preaching.

The climate thing is like the one aspect of him that I like.

He's hiding in Granny's garage but his parents are on their own, apparently.

Where is Bushie?

He could do it Kenyan style...

I agree the most with Malcolm Turnbull and prefer him as a person, but I am not sure he would be the most efficient PM.

5-1. Sweden wins its ninth World Championship gold medal. First nation to win on home ice since 1986. Nice job!

Tre Kronor leads 3-1. Game de facto over. Congrats to Sweden.
