Originally posted by aldra LOL wtf it was 2750 pouns of ammonium nitrate and had been stored that way for 6 years
yeah, definitely possible someone took advantage of the situation
Well to be fair if it was Mossad they were just being a helpful neighbor. I mean they wanted to blow the stuff up so Mossad just helped them do it more effiecently. -

Good book for people who have no idea what the Chinese perspective is.
I really am not interested in what the Chinese perspective is. Even if he does accurately portray it. No more than I am interested in the perspective of a 12th-century serf in feudal Europe. IF you gave the latter a shit free place to sleep, two heaping bowls of porridge, a half a chicken, some root vegetables, a warm fire, and a few pints of mead at the end of a 10-hour workday they would think they were living high on the hog. My perspective is a bit different. So if you want to think that the average modern Chinese citizen has it so good why do you think they are not allowed to just leave whenever they want without fear of anything happening to their loved ones left behind? -

Originally posted by Technologist There’s gonna be a million reasons why people think this happened, and we still may never know what actually happened.
The news I’ve seen thus far said it wasn’t terrorism, but that it had to do with some form of corruption. That amount of those chemicals should have never been kept in a city.
It was Mossad...The explosions coincide with mounting tensions between Israel and the Lebanese Shiite militia Hezbollah, which maintains a facility at the port and has long been accused by U.S. officials of using it to smuggle weapons into the country. The incident follows a spate of mysterious blasts at Shiite militia weapon-storage sites in Iraq last year, which Iraqi and Israeli officials have said Israel was responsible for, and more recently a string of explosions at military sites and sensitive locations in Iran, which regional intelligence officials have said Israel, at least in part, was behind.

Originally posted by aldra I'd be interested to see how those stats are calculated - unless they account for outliers it could be like GDP growth, ie. the richest people and corporations push the numbers up even as more and more people fall into poverty.
http://www.shadowstats.com/alternate_data/unemployment-charts
The real unemployment rate appears to be around 30% at the moment, and more people past retirement age are back in the workforce, largely in low-skilled jobs that are traditionally held by teenagers
Except that is not what has happend over the last four years. The middle class saw the biggest gain in their median income since the 70's. -

Originally posted by aldra As opposed to the 850 million or so Chinese that have been lifted out of poverty since Mao's reforms?
If your source has anything to do with the Chinese governemnet or the UN we both know that is bullshit. But even at that many more than 850 million have been postitively affected in an econimic sense by the free market over the last 240 plus years. But I guess if you call the condidtion in most modern Chinese factories "out of poverty" we really have nothing more to discuss on this topic. -
