Boeing: Dreamliner Delays Are a Gift

Cramer is a retard and Boeing is a giant retard. Boeing has been an empty shell of its former engineering self for years. The 787 just brought it to light. I look forward to the collapse. Anyone who thinks it'll all come together suddenly is delusional.

Obama Wants a 'Better Plan'? Here's One: Bite the Bullet

Sadly, I know from growing up in Canada, that Liberals are insane and can't be swayed from their idealogical course by facts and figures. They must have the money and power to make everything according to their vision. I think Canada can sustain socialism better than the US because it's economy is based on pulling stuff out of the ground and selling it to us. Ours depends upon free motivated people going to work everyday. Socialism kills all such motivation.

Unless this crew is removed from office, we are in for a decline that is much much worse than the years of double digit unemployment and deficits that Canada had.

The Tide Has Turned

Yikes, listen to ANY experienced money trader and you'll know this is a dead cat bounce and the economy is FAR from fixed. Equities people tend towards too much hype and not enough objectivity. :)

Bernanke Seems Clueless About the Real State of the Economy

The narcissist label is particularly apt.

With looming 20-25% real unemployment by the end of the year, I think the best investments are stored food, fuel, ammo, gold, security systems, and plan to evacuate; perhaps even the country. As goofy as it sounds, one does need insurance.

The Shallowest Generation

Thank you for saying what needed to be said. I have always found the generation that came just before mine to be incredibly shallow, mindless, clever, greedy, thoughtless beyond their own selfish goals and needs, and completely unwilling to face the truth about anything. A nation of childish narcissists. They seem to believe that any criticism comes from jealousy, because we'd be just the same if we had the chance. Wrong. I am glad they will be dead when my kids are grown. I just regret the mess they will leave them.

The One-Word Topic of the Day, and Week: Obama

We already have a huge shortage of engineers.....duh. And, raising their taxes is not going to bring any more into the workforce. You really mean construction workers, not engineers. 90% of engineers are very conservative.

Does Al Gore Finally Get It?

Well, I will stop reading your blogs. Man made global warming is a hoax to promote global governance, plain and simple. For goodness sake, look at the main source of information - the UN! IPCC is a political organization, not a scientific one. Listen to the many opponents. And most of all, look at all the data and put it in perspective.

The End of Broadcast TV Nears

Good article. I like to call the medium "a vapid wasteland of unwatchable programs". In a world that is demanding higher and higher intelligence from its inhabitants, the last thing kids (or adults) should be doing is watching TV. I say, let it die.

The World's Revenge

Right. Let's tax our way into prosperity! Eat the rich! This is emotional drivel. I think we all know the govt is retarded. And , any thinking person knew the oil party would end. Should we now blame the government for the fact that no one is driving Natural Gas cars? Despite it costing 1/3 to 1/5 of what gas costs? Solar energy is easy to do 31% efficiency...where is the consumer demand? Stirling engines work great in hybrids. Where is the demand? Most of our problems are engineering problems. Are there any engineers in Congress? Can the average individual name 2 engineers? Stop whining about government and running for the illusory safety of socialism. make your own damn decisions.

And You Think Today's Gas Prices Are High?

Yes well, isn't the general idea that things should be getting better and not worse? Why sit around saying -well, could be worse! Energy really should be free and widely available. It already is abundant nearly free for solar using stirling engines. Look at the 500MW station going up near San Diego. We could have plenty available from Nuclear energy too, Fission now and fusion if we ever get there. Sadly, we have stupidly and stubbornly based our economy on cheap oil and inefficient use of it. Dumbest of all, we buy most of it from badly run countries and now are in competition with other developing countries for it. AND WORST OF ALL, we have no one in Congress or in any influential position who even has an engineering degree. People think engineering is done by elves who show up at night. Anyway, I bought an NGV Honda. I now pay 90 cents a gallon, change my oil every 30K miles, consume CNG pumped right here in OK, and create virtually no pollution. Happily, the rest of you won't do the same because you'd rather argue about politics. Drill here and get off the stuff - move forward, not back. Get more cheap energy. AND GET MORE ENGINEERS IN CONGRESS!!!!!

Too Late to the Oil Party? Consider the Alternative

Why Investors Worship Old King Coal

The reference to global warming should be offset with a comment that we are now cooling and will continue to cool. As global warming comes off the table (provided those devoted to this religion can actually acknowledge facts) coal will be even more attractive.

An Energy Policy That Makes Sense, Revisited

Amazing how there are no engineers in politics or really at the top anywhere in this country. We are rapidly approaching a time when our fundamental problems are engineering problems and yet there are nearly no engineers in leadership. This can be seen in many plcaes, I am in werospace and we are failing because leadership just does not understand or respect engineering. What percentage of congressmen are practicing engineers? What percentage of CEO's?

Boeing Cleared for Takeoff

I am frankly glad that Boeing lost for this reason: the corporate welfare mentality so very evident in the tanker deal is destroying aircraft engineering. Managers equipped with the the 'iron rice bowl' mentality stifle all innovation, promote dunderheads, and turn out overpriced crap calling it engineering. It has slowly destroyed the profession.
