A Wonderfully Simple Explanation of Oil Price and the Economy
If only we could get our dumbass politicians to see things in this simple manner. Oh wait… They know this, but they are too invested in the oil industry and rich, so they don’t give a crap. OK. Back to work slaves!

Humor: Watch SNL Make Fun of Verizon 4G LTE Commercials(via @Gizmodo)
Sure maybe you know your way around Android phones but all those Droids, Razrs, Rezounds, HTCs, LGs, 4Gs and LTEs are confusing for normal people! Hell, it’s so confusing that SNL made a parody commercial about how confusing it is.

Freedom… What’s it worth to you?
Here is my advice as we begin the century that will lead to 2081. First, guard the freedom of ideas at all costs. Be alert that dictators have always played on the natural human tendency to blame others and to oversimplify. And don’t regard yourself as a guardian of freedom unless you respect and preserve the rights of people you disagree with to free, public, unhampered expression. ~Gerard K. O’Neill, 2081
It is easy to take liberty for granted, when you have never had it taken from you. ~Author unknown, sometimes attributed to M. Grundler
We on this continent should never forget that men first crossed the Atlantic not to find soil for their ploughs but to secure liberty for their souls. ~Robert J. McCracken
There are two freedoms - the false, where a man is free to do what he likes; the true, where he is free to do what he ought. ~Charles Kingsley
Men fight for freedom, then they begin to accumulate laws to take it away from themselves. ~Author Unknown
Liberty has never come from the government. Liberty has always come from the subjects of it. The history of liberty is a history of resistance. ~Woodrow Wilson
We have enjoyed so much freedom for so long that we are perhaps in danger of forgetting how much blood it cost to establish the Bill of Rights. ~Felix Frankfurter
