It’s only been a few months since Elon Musk’s DOGE (Department of Government Efficiency) came and went.
In case you’re worried about Musk, don’t be; he did just fine. From AI: Reports suggest that Musk’s companies have received billions in government funding through contracts, subsidies, and loans, and that his position with DOGE has provided him with opportunities to influence policy and decision-making that could benefit his businesses.
As shown above, however, it appears that the American people, however, did not fare well at all. We just absorbed another trillion dollars in debt, about $3000 for every man, woman, and child in the nation.
Anyone who thought that Musk’s presence in the White House boded well for the common American was a fool.
Minnesota is home to intelligent, well-educated people whose approval of Trump is lower than that of toenail fungus.
If Lindell wants to lead a state, he needs to choose one at least 800 miles away. Oklahoma?
He may also want to consider that Trump is easily the most detested person in this nation.
I wouldn’t say that the burden of proof lies on religion. No one knows how the universe got here.
The Big Bang was an event in which there was no chaos, no “entropy,” as we say in thermodynamics. How did all this orderliness get there 13.87 billion years ago? No one knows. This is an issue in cosmology which is quite likely to outlast human civilization on this planet.
I’m an atheist for a few reasons, one of which is that saying that God created the universe doesn’t get us any closer to an understanding of the cosmos, if only because it raises the question: Who made God?
More to the point, there are hundreds of moral reasons to disbelieve in God. Each year, 9 million children will die unbaptized on this planet before their fifth birthdays. In the bible, we learn that God punishes them all with an eternity of torture in hell. To what sort of weirdo does this make sense?
At left we have another good reminder that our cognitive biases can render us incapable of thinking critically.
Some of us believe anything we want to.
