The subsidiary of an American manufacturer is now paying ransom to terrorists.

Terrorists, you ask?  Yes, when the threat of violence is introduced to the negotiations.

But there’s no coordination happening between these scattered groups of disgruntled bolsheviks unionists, who seem to be united only in their desire for “fair” employment practices.   Of course.   This is certainly a situation never before seen in modern history.

Sorry, we “just can’t afford you anymore.”

In order to reduce the cost burden even more, I propose Massachusetts eliminates state-subsidized healthcare for:

• Social conservatives and reactionaries
• Veterans not covered under VA
• Debtors
• Jews
• Gypsies (Roma, not Irish)
• Alcoholics
• Anti-unionists
• Mentally disabled or distraught
• All remaining Non-Caucasians
• Fans of Red Eye w/Greg Gutfeld
• Southern Baptists

I might have had to stretch a little bit with the list but the esteemed Autocrats Democrats running this progressive New English paradise on the bay should be able to handle it.

Tom Maguire on Paul Krugman’s fine whine about deadly heat waves caused by climate change.

Heat is already the leading cause of weather-related deaths in the United States. More than 3,400 deaths between 1999 and 2003 were reported as resulting from exposure to excessive heat.

That is about 850 deaths per year. Each untimely death is tragic and Krugman is surely vexed that this number might rise. But by way of comparison, a 2002 study estimated that higher CAFE standards would put Americans in smaller cars and result in an additional 2,000 deaths per year; Krugman, as a party-line progressive, surely supports higher CAFE standards. I denounce Krugman as a traitor to the national highway system Not to mention as a traitor to the safety of my wife and kids.

Progressives like Krugman are willing to heartlessly sacrifice thousands of innocent lives to pursue “well meaning” policies that have little chance of producing realistic outcomes.
