We call this episode "Second Base," but we think you'll agree that our latest installment of THE FOLD is a hot n heavy homerun! Aspie inventor Cody Ferguson heats things up when he and Joan of Arc take their cross-temporal tryst to the next level. Meanwhile, sapphic sparks fly when Agent Kim Ziegler sits Rachel Campaniello down for a tete-a-tete vis-a-vis the World Wide Orgasm - my oh my!

lessig compares palin to every vice president in u.s. history

noreply@blogger.com (Eric Mortensen) — Wed, 24 Sep 2008 15:55:00 +0000

Lawrence Lessig:

In response to Palin's suggesting that he experience was somehow normal, an exhaustive comparison (and exhausting, to me and to you!) of Governor Palin's experience as compared with every other Vice President in U.S. history. Twelve minutes of exhaustion.

Bailouts: More short-term solutions from the shortsighted

noreply@blogger.com (Eric Mortensen) — Wed, 17 Sep 2008 14:28:00 +0000

David Leonhard explains why bailouts are a bad idea:

In 1979, when it was still the 10th largest company in the country, Chrysler found itself on the verge of collapse, largely because high oil prices had made its gas guzzlers unappealing. Company executives and union leaders came to Washington, hat in hand, arguing that Chrysler’s demise would wreak unacceptable damage on the American economy. Congress and the Carter administration responded by arranging for $1.2 billion in subsidized loans. The Reagan administration helped further in 1981 by restricting Japanese imports.

But if you take a moment to think through the full Chrysler story, you start to realize that it’s setting a really low bar. The Chrysler bailout may have saved the company, but it did nothing, after all, to stop Detroit’s long, sad decline.

If Chrysler had collapsed, he argues, vulture investors might have swooped in and reconstituted the company as a smaller automaker less tied to the failed strategies of Detroit’s Big Three and their unions. “If Chrysler goes belly up,” he says, “it also might have forced some deep introspection at Ford and G.M. and might have changed their attitude toward fuel efficiency and manufacturing quality.” Some of the bailout’s opponents — from free-market conservatives to Senator Gary Hart, then a rising Democrat — were making similar arguments three decades ago.

Instead, the bailout and import quotas fooled the automakers into thinking they could keep doing business as usual. In 1980, Detroit sold about 80 percent of all new vehicles in this country, according to Autodata. Today, it sells just 45 percent.

And perhaps we should consider some oversight, so we're not faced with these problems to begin with.
