Population Control – War against the Poor

Posted on May 30, 2015 by Walter H. Schneider

Population control — War against the poor: Today, someone made me aware of an article discussing the sad state of affairs of the care for the elderly in the U.K. The Telegraph Elderly face NHS discrimination under new UN death targets ‘Elderly people will be treated like second-class citizens and denied medical care under new targets which give priority to saving the lives of young people’ By Sarah Knapton, Science Editor May 29, 2015 Full story The U.K. is not the only country in the world where the disregard for the comforts and the lives of the elderly has taken on such proportions.  Such horror stories abound in most, if … Continue reading →

$15-an-hour minimum wage is a problem?

Posted on May 27, 2015 by Walter H. Schneider

Last updated 2018 08 19 $15-an-hour minimum wage is a problem? The idea is a major-topic of discussion in the news right now.  Here in Alberta, where we have just been blessed by the voters with a socialist government.  The leader of the New Democratic Party (NDP), Rachel Notley, picking up on popular sentiments, announced that the NDP will work to bring about and implement a $15-an-hour minimum wage.  My wife and I made some experiences with minimum wages that I will describe here. We farmed not too far from where we now live. Our main crop was hay, most of which we fed to the sheep we raised. The growing … Continue reading →

The outcome of the Irish referendum on same-sex marriage

Posted on May 24, 2015 by Walter H. Schneider

The outcome of the Irish referendum on same-sex marriage was a big surprise for many people, but there are good reasons why it happened. Irish voters back gay marriage in ‘social revolution’ DUBLIN (Reuters, 2015 05 23) – The people of Ireland backed same-sex marriage by a landslide in a referendum that marked a dramatic social shift in a traditionally Catholic country that only decriminalized homosexuality two decades ago. After one of the largest turnouts in a referendum there, 62 percent of voters said ‘Yes’, making Ireland the first country to adopt same-sex marriage via a popular vote. More on the Irish referendum on same-sex marriage h/t David R. Usher … Continue reading →

Female violence receives little social recognition

Posted on May 23, 2015 by Walter H. Schneider

Female violence, is it it new or just being acknowledged? The Daily Mail published an article in December 2013 that focused on what it sees as a new phenomenon: “Why are so many MEN becoming victims of domestic violence?” It’s one of Britain’s last remaining taboos, but abuse against men in the home is on the rise More married men suffer abuse from their spouse than married women These days, women move more in men’s worlds They earn and compete with as much aggression as their male colleagues Women are also fast catching up with men in the alcohol stakes By Antonia Hoyle for The Mail on Sunday Published: 23:49 … Continue reading →

Prof fears rise of home-brewed heroin

Posted on May 21, 2015 by Walter H. Schneider

Home-brewed heroin production: The 2015 05 21 print edition of the Edmonton Journal carried a front-page story promoting fear about breaking-bad style, home-brewed heroin production. The alarmist nature of the Edmonton Journal article by Sheila Pratt motivated me to look for more credible sources of less alarmist news on home-brewed heroin production.  I am glad that I did. The journalistic integrity of the Edmonton Journal most definitely appears to have taken a hit since the days Lorne Gunter was a member of its editorial board. It turns out that clues and motivation for that article were apparently obtained from an earlier article on the same topic that had appeared in … Continue reading →

Men’s existence long puzzled scientists

Posted on May 20, 2015 by Walter H. Schneider

Last updated 2017 09 20, to install link to interactive graph. Men’s existence long puzzled scientists, asserts an article by Aamna Mohdin, ‘Why do men exist?’  Aamna Mohdin’s article falls short, on several levels, of being a piece of journalism that satisfactorily addresses the principle of the five Ws (Who, What, When, Where, and Why).  One must wonder about the lack of the journalistic integrity of the editors at IFLScience.  Then again, given that Aamna Mohdin’s article is flagged as being in the Environmental section of the IFLScience website, it is not surprising that it contains so much propaganda and preciously little science. It seems that any ‘scientists‘ who are … Continue reading →

“Why should I believe you?”

Posted on May 19, 2015 by Walter H. Schneider

Why should anyone believe anything?  We think that journalism and the news are about the truth.  Most people, by far, get their news from TV, and increasingly so now from the Internet.  That is so although most people know that the news that affect them are largely lies and that, moreover, so is most of everything else that they take in, in the way of information being fed to us.  Advertising is a large part of it and uses the same media, which tends to make advertising more credible than it often deserves to be.  However, because that works so well, advertising agencies make sure to present their prime efforts … Continue reading →

Second World War – Bombing of the German Cities

Posted on May 8, 2015 by Walter H. Schneider

On June 3rd, 1945, not quite a month after the Second World War had come to an end, I had my ninth birthday, but my parents had nothing with which to celebrate it. At that time we had a monotonous diet, not quite enough to eat, consisting of one slice of bread and a bowl of rhubarb soup, thickened with a bit of shredded, steam-dried potatoes, of which Dad had been able to bring home a small bag from work (he stole them).  We had to make sure to make the supply last.  That was not very difficult, because they tasted awful, but the rhubarb masked the taste a bit, … Continue reading →

Election day in Alberta — May 5, 2015

Posted on May 1, 2015 by Walter H. Schneider

For those who will vote on election day in Alberta, May 5, 2015, keep in mind that the real political power rests with the non-elected government bureaucracy.  The government bureaucrats will continue with their agenda regardless of which party (or coalition of parties) gets to pretend that it calls the shots. The elected politicians are not entirely to be blamed for what has happened and will be happening.  They have to be quite careful about what happens in their constituency offices and what they do or say there.  Their office staff is comprised of employees who are in the pay of government services. Will any of the politicians have the … Continue reading →
