More bullshit from the so called "financial" media
Edited on Mon Aug-10-09 02:29 PM by Joanne98


From the Investor's Business Daily:

http://www.ibdeditorials.com/IBDArticles.aspx?id=333933006516877

People such as scientist Stephen Hawking wouldn't have a chance in the U.K., where the National Health Service would say the life of this brilliant man, because of his physical handicaps, is essentially worthless.



As Jay Bookman points out,



Of course, that same Stephen Hawking who wouldn’t have a chance in the United Kingdom was in fact born in the United Kingdom, has lived his entire life in the United Kingdom and lives there still today, at the ripe old age of 67. (He was in fact hospitalized earlier this month.) Hawking is, you might say, living, breathing proof that these people are first-class fools.



He's far too kind. They are simply soulless atavistic liars.

They really are sociopaths.

1. Pretty funny.
Must we stomp on every pathetically stupid assertion?

3. K&R. These fools are completely and hopelessly stupid.
Unfortunately, their followers are not any smarter.

4. IBE's editorial page is just to the right of Attila the Hun.
This one, though, does take the cake -- apparently they're as intelligent as Attila would be in today's world to boot. Their "news" department is slanted as well. If you have to read it for the financial info (and it does a good job in that regard) then don't read the editorial content or you'll go crazy.
