Re: Blue eyes prop back at Bodog
The first bet was on Nicole Richie's child and is still open. There is certainly risk that the eye color at birth won't be known and Bodog could just rule the bets no action. I have an African...

Re: San Diego in an AC world

Re: San Diego in an AC world
The article I linked does a nice job of explaining why these fires are occurring in the first place. It is the governments fault. With private ownership of forests you wouldn't get these tragic...

Re: debate thread
You are making a couple of huge assumptions when saying that doubling the money supply will have no net effect on the economy. Specifically,

Re: A Question about Ron Paul\'s Economics
