That's because there are too many speculators in the commodities markets. They use every world hiccup to artificially drive up the prices.

The Irish have always been famous for their wit and humor. One name that comes to mind, and had the gift of gab, was Oscar Wilde.

I saw it in the movies back in the 70s. I remember it was more about the population explosion than about global warming. We didn't know about climate change back then.

There was another discussion on Reddit where the OP asked, "Who would win if the US fought Russia," and all these commenters were going on about how we would kick their ass.

Reply to New York’s governor signs watered-down right-to-repair bill - Last-minute concessions weakened the rules, which will only apply to new consumer products sold after July 1st. by speckz

I live on Long Island, NY one of the most heavily taxed areas in the country. My escrow payment is about $1500 per month. We know all about this, and I find it hard to believe that people don't know this. If your school district votes to raise the budget, where do they think the money is coming from?

You're talking about two completely different species (humans & American Bison). While protein is essential for us to build muscle, that isn't the case for all animals, not that there isn't protein in vegetation. Some of the largest land animals (dinosaurs) were plant eaters.
