Casual glorification of violence has already been demonstrated to be unrelated to crime rates or the tendency of a watcher to be violent.

Seeing bullying on TV, on the other hand, has actually totally been proven to increase bullying in schools.

If almost all gun owners aren't harming anyone, why are you so against their continuing not to harm anyone? The gun ownership rate in the US is actually greater than the car ownership rate in the US per capita. By your logic, the fact that most drivers don't kill people on a regular basis means we ...

Meanwhile I'll laugh at Essence for his stupid advice. Thinking about things that are good and right and happy doesn't take five minutes, I could do it over the course of two seconds. Actually three seconds, I've added "mocking Essence is fun" to that. Go for it -- just keep in mind that ...

I know it's a radical theory, but I'd be willing to wager that eliminating the minimum wage would actually raise the average wage across the US. Right now, there are thousands of businesses who are paying the minimum wage because it's the minimum that they're allowed to pay. If there was no obvious ...

Warren Buffet had a great quote on the Daily Show:

"If I call you up at one in the morning and I say, 'I've got the best idea I've ever had, but have to invest right now, are you in?' -- the last thing you're going to say is 'That depends, what's the tax rate right now?'"
