Malaria is an ancient disease and has evolved to survive assaults by our immune system. It is caused by a plasmodium, which is a type of “protozoan” and not a bacteria or virus. It has evolved an arsenal of ways to avoid the normal immune reactions (see Arcparser #6 reply.) Numerous other animals besides humans can contract malaria, another sign that it is an “ancient” disease. In fact, the carriers of the gene for sickle-cell anemia historically originate from areas where falciparum malaria is endemic. The heterozygous carriers of the gene have some natural immunity to that form of malaria. One third of all Sub-Saharan Africans carry the gene along with some groups from the Mediterranean. Again, this shows the “ancient” nature of the disease and the fact that it is highly evolved to survive immune systems in animals. It’s a tough organism.

Ah, yes, the liberals’ “Inconvenient Truth” : The 10% of households with the highest incomes pay more than 70% of federal income taxes, according to the Congressional Budget Office.

No amount of squealing and squawking changes this simple mathematical fact. You are a TAX DENIER.

“America should tax the rich more and use the money to create jobs. ”
Exactly how would that work? Since the private sector creates real jobs, would you not have to turn right around and give the money back to private sector? Unless of course you plan to use the money to just hire people to “work for” the government, doing, ..what? How do you choose who is to get the money? Enlighten me.

In case anyone missed this, here’s something from the past you may or may not enjoy.

I still think his hair looks good, though. Wonder who did the plugs? Does anyone know? I’m getting a little thin on top, myself.

It’s a real island in the Ulithi atoll. The atoll was a huge naval base in WWII. In WWII Mog Mog was set aside as a “recreation” island, but I doubt there was much to do there.

Oh, believe me I have. Compared to the 19th century worker, by any measurement, I have greater wealth, command more real resources, live a longer life, have more “stuff” than the majority of 95% of the bourgeoisie of the century in which he lived and wrote. I’m in the 60-th percentile of income. Whom have I exploited or who has exploited me? I have 2 horseless carriages to zoom around in and can watch moving pictures in 3 different rooms in my lavish 2000-sq-ft mansion. Because of who I am, I have to keep a watch out every day for the pitchfork wielding masses. Not. I have never been exploited by any entity that I know of (except for this one girl, but that story is not pertinent.) I work for a large company whose profitability directly affects my income via wages, bonuses, and the stock I own in same company. (You see, I’m actually a part owner of the very organization that exploits me! /s) The thing is, they pay me *real* money. If I enhance their profitability, I get more money and recognition. They don’t exploit me at all because I can walk away to another job at any time. (There is almost always shortage of people with my skills.) So, from my perspective, what you say makes no sense to me. If I ever get tired of toiling in my specialty, I’ll go breed and raise emus. That’s the free choice I have at all times. BTW, emu tastes just like chicken.

Why would the bankers and oligarchs kill off the very things that make them rich? Are you not aware of of the “Surplus Value” theory of Marxism? It’s the working class that they exploit for profit. Without this exploitation the PTB has no wealth, whatsoever. Geeeshh. Some people never learn.
