“Simply because you are a constitutional law professor doesn’t mean you understand the constitution, care about what the constitution says, or want to protect the constitution. And this is what is being taught to the next generation”

Lets Give Up on the Constitution?! – YouTube.

I just watched an episode of Stossel with Hans Rosling.  He has done several TED talks.

Hans Rosling: The magic washing machine

  • “Even the most hardcore green people use a washing machine”
  • “Until they [the 1st world residents] have the same energy consumption per person [as the rest of the world’s residents], they should not give advice on what to do and not to do”
  • “Thank you industrialization, thank you steel mill, thank you power company, and thank you chemical company; you gave us time to read books!”

Check out his project: GAPMINDER for a fact-based world view
