They call it sex work, describe it as a right, and dress it up as a noble calling. That sounds great, but what legalized sex work actually looks like is slavery, trafficking, and sexual assault.

Our biology does not distinguish between the challenge of a bear or the challenge of an idea.

But now it must change. We must change. We must innovate. The Dutch have been dealing with the North Sea for generations. New Orleans with the Gulf of Mexico. Let’s hire some of the experts out there to help with this redesign. 

All in all, it’s a good thing that our Senator is focusing on helping small farmers and ranchers prosper in a world of anticompetitive agribusiness mergers.

Especially in the wake of the storms, the Clean Heat Standard and its huge price tag should be repealed, and its resources redirected toward recovery.

How many times can a federal regulating agency claim “safe and effective” and be wrong yet still hold faith with followers?

If we think transitioning to renewable heating and transportation is inconvenient or possibly a little more expensive, just look around at what we will be facing if we don’t. Can we afford not to?  

There is no worldly Utopia on offer by the WHO, only more degradation of individual liberties and national sovereignties. And if the WHO wants to be jabbed with my sharpened stick, then “Molon Labe”.

U.S. solar power advocates accept blackouts and wildlife habitat destruction, even as China builds a new coal-burning plant every week.

This is neither about democracy or national security: it is about quick corporate profit.

We expect that the excessive flooding and silt will destroy a large share of our produce and livestock feed. In our hilly State, some of our most fertile farmland lies in river valleys. Countless fields of corn, hay, vegetables, fruit, and pasture were swamped and buried.
