Photonic computers<\/a>, that use light rather than electrical signals to do the work, may actually be on the horizon.\u00a0 This will be huge.\u00a0 While it’s still a few years down the road, the number of years is in the single digits at this point.<\/p>\n

Let’s be more like Europe!<\/a> “The UK’s tax collection agency is putting forth a proposal that all employers send employee paychecks to the government, after which the government would deduct what it deems as the appropriate tax and pay the employees by bank transfer.”\u00a0 Even a little socialism can be a dangerous thing.\u00a0 Exhibit A.<\/p>\n

Obama supporters are “exhausted of defending” him<\/a>.\u00a0 If this turns into an exhaustion of voting for Democrats, House and Senate seats polling close now may yet be a big win for Republicans.\u00a0 Obama only has himself to blame; supporters are not exhausted of defending “the mess” he inherited, they’re tired of defending his “accomplishments”<\/a>.\u00a0 If you’ve lost Jon Stewart<\/a>, you’ve lost a lot of folks who think he’s a news anchor.\u00a0 (Which is, unfortunately, quite a lot of people.)<\/p>\n

Obama says the stimulus kept the recession from falling into a depression.\u00a0 But economists are now saying that, technically, we came out of the recession in June, 2009.\u00a0 That’s before<\/em> the stimulus really kicked in.\u00a0 We spent $800 billion on measures to save the economy from something it had recovered from on its own<\/em><\/a>.\u00a0 Under that guise, we got record- and precedent-setting debt.<\/p>\n

Which is why the Tea Party influence in the Republican party is so needed now, even if the GOP goes kicking and screaming.\u00a0 (Click for a larger image.)<\/p>\n
