Funny how socialists turn out to be the worst money-grubbers of them all.

Lileks looks at modern White People culture.

For example: using bleach to clean school tables is apparently incompatible with being progressive.  Progressive people don’t use bleach. I had no idea.  First you will be gently instructed by a friend, I suppose; don’t you know about bleach? Then the friend will ask if you just don’t use any bleach around the house the day before her daughter comes over for a playdate? She gets headaches. Then the friends stop coming altogether, and it’s tight smiles and cool looks when you run into your friends in the produce aisle. Really, if you can’t figure out that you should have removed all bleach from your house, there’s just no hope for you.

Of course, you ought not to be hanging out with socialists, anyway, but I can see how that’s hard to avoid in Minnesota, where they take after The Old Country in politics.

Turns out that the feds own quite a bit of it.

The United States government has direct ownership of almost 650 million acres of land (2.63 million square kilometers) – nearly 30% of its total territory.

People who feel the psycological compulsion to put their political opinions on their bumpers are just the sort of people who think they ought to run other people’s lives for them. That they are road-ragers is no suprise.

Of course, in Texas we have a traditional response to that. “Judge, he needed killin’.”

What do you do when the first tank of hydrogen runs out?

One of the biggest obstacles standing in the way of wider adoption of fuel cell vehicles is cost and the lack of hydrogen fueling stations.

The most amusing thing is that the leftoids, who would be the first to praise “courageous” public employees who refused to comply with an “immoral” law (one that “progressives” disapprove of), are now quick to whine and blubber when the shoe is on the other foot.

Or, at least, one of the handwringers at Slate magazine thinks so.

The underlying reasons for Bell dominance are Washington politics and the economics of natural monopoly. Some markets, because of the sheer costs of being a player, tend toward either a single firm or a small number of firms. Infrastructure and utility markets are the classic examples: bridges, plumbing, and electric systems. Everyone hoped and thought the wireless market would be different. But it’s not, in part because of well-meaning policies. “Fair” spectrum auctions cost billions and thereby create the conditions of natural monopoly, over time making the industry a one- or two-horse show.

You’d think that those who were aghast at monopolies would point that attitude at the government, the fons et origo of monopoly. But they never do.

An entire article proceeding from a false premise — typical for Slate. The point is that the economy isn’t that bad, and ordinary people (unlike, say, thumbsucking pseudo-journalists) realize that and behave accordingly.

It’s the good thing the government regulates these things, otherwise we’d be in deep doo-doo.

Oh, wait:

The federal agency that oversees oil trading, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, has exempted these firms from rules that limit speculative buying, a prerogative traditionally reserved for airlines and trucking companies that need to lock in future fuel costs.

The CFTC has also waived regulations over the past decade on U.S. investors who trade commodities on some overseas markets, freeing those investors to accumulate large quantities of the future oil supply by making purchases on lightly regulated foreign exchanges.
