Here’s an 8 minute video that has nothing to do with the law and–at first glance–not much to do with the economy.  But it has lots to do with the economy because it demonstrates that, thanks to computerization, automation and robotization, the need for truck drivers, chauffeurs, deliverymen, etc. , is going to shrink and perhaps disappear over the next few years.

Caterpillar is automating trucks the size of your house and eliminating their drivers.  So long as the technology works, it will undoubtedly be safer, more reliable and less costly than using trucks that include drivers.   Continue reading “Autonomous Hauling: A Sign of Things to Come”

The Daily Caller – by Mike Piccione

The anti-gun Brady Campaign has a new video out to the public promoting its website crimadvisor.com. Get it? It’s supposed to be like tripadvisor.com. The site advises people where it’s easy to buy guns so its supporters can rally against the gun laws in those states. Because, nobody knows what your state needs better than someone who doesn’t live there.

The problem with the Brady Campaign logic is that the states it is targeting for more gun laws are the states where fewest people actually get murdered by guns.   Continue reading “Brady Campaign Runs A Perverted ‘Joke’ Video To Appeal For More Gun Control In Low Crime States”

A Texas Sheriff’s deputy was caught on a hidden video punching a pregnant woman over and over. Even more disturbing, photographsdocument that the repeated blows severely bruised her 38-week-pregnant stomach.

Right after the assault, the camera abruptly shuts off. The person who filmed the incident clearly was worried that the footage would be confiscated by these “law enforcement” officers who had no respect for the law, human rights or even basic decency of protecting the most vulnerable members of society.   Continue reading “Cops Caught On Video Punching Pregnant Woman Over and Over”

Pesticides are used all the time in agriculture and applied to plants and trees in gardens and parks. Bees and other pollinating insects play a vital role in food production. With the numbers of honey bees and other pollinating insects on the decline, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is stepping in.

The widespread use of neonicotinoid pesticides has been under scrutiny in recent years. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) said it was unlikely to approve new or expanded uses of certain pesticides while it evaluates the risks they may pose to honey bees.   Continue reading “Are Neonicotinoid Pesticides Killing our Bees?”

The US wasted $10 billion on missile defense projects which were doomed for failure from the beginning, due to a lack of analysis, a report by the Los Angeles Times says. Aside from the astronomical costs, the failures appear to also threaten US security.

America’s maritime based X-Band Radar (SBX) was hailed by the US Missile Defense Agency (MDA) as having the potential to become the most powerful radar of its kind in the world.   Continue reading “$10 bln down the drain? US spends billions on ‘ineffective’ missile defense systems”

Stephanie Fragoso said she was cited Wednesday during the statewide crackdown. She said she was at a red light at I-15 and Blue Diamond when it happened.   Continue reading “Driver claims she got $200 ticket for putting on lip balm behind the wheel”

Pretty funny.

Egg McMuffins aren’t just mediocre pastries stuffed with microwaved eggs, bright yellow cheese and ham product. They are a form of tyranny.

That, at least, is the upshot of “Routine Republic,” a riveting and surreal new Taco Bell campaign from Deutsch. A year after the agency cheekily hired a bunch of guys named Ronald McDonald to celebrate the Mexican-themed fast-food chain’s first foray into breakfast, the shots at the Golden Arches are barely masked.   Continue reading “EVIL CLOWN: Taco Bell Launches Cold War Against McDonald’s With Soviet-Style Propaganda Imagery”
