Well, I'm all ears.

What is your opinion of Khan Academy?

This is a video about the effectiveness of teaching [science] through videos, and how it's practical, but not necessarily to the people who need it the most.

Dat level of argumentation.

Let me consult the chart.

anyone with a background in photography will understand what they are looking at here
back before digital this is how photoshop worked
it is a clear evidence that something has been altered and no explaination has been offered
to call those who have seen such evidence and understood it 'tinfoilers' is irresponsible ad-hominem namecalling

You realize that you are off topic right? I was just giving an example for why deregulation without understanding what you are really doing is catastrophic.

I'll argue your point though. As far as how our economy would have progressed under free market conditions, I'm talking totally and utterly free a sort of anarchy, that would have been how it would have progressed at least in the beginning as for the free market to work you need to establish property rights, especially that you own your own body. This automatically throws out the development of gas, coal and oil as all of these things do pollute in some shape or form. In fact if you look into history you will see that goverment saw that the development of these companies was necessary so they just keep increasing regulations over time.

In the case of solar/wind (and probably geothermal and anything else I've forgotten about) vs coal/oil/gas the only reason why the latter has beaten the former is because of the $20,000,000,000 dollar subsidy the government gives the energy the vast majority, something like 80% goes to the latter. If we got rid of the the entire subsidy the former would win so far as I know. Also consider the amount of R&D money that has gone into efficiency of these two competing forces over time.

You can clearly see how this can actually work through countless examples on youtube.

As far as nuclear reactors which are fairly safe, unless you build them on a fault line or things like that and thorium reactors which I'll admit I'm not that familiar with but they sound like they are more efficient with hardly any waste I could see the free market using that as well. But I hope that you would agree with me that this would be much more preferable in areas that are dense population wise.

Fucking owned Pic related you're at the top of that pyramid now; well done.

Guess where you are.

>hmm so how do you propose we may achieve interstellar travel?

It's a complex, difficult problem in a field I'm not really a part of, I study molecular biology. I can tell you the radiation at any speed that will get you anywhere is going to be a real bitch. Also, what about micrometeors and other shit out there a ship travelling at high speeds would have any likelihood of crashing in to? It's difficult to figure out. I think we'll be able to, but it's going to take creativity in the confines of the scientific method and rationality, since it's the method we have that works.

A human sperm alone won't develop into a human life, kid
Zygote =/= Sperm / Egg separate, your nonsensical argument just felt apart

Also, you're at the base of this pyramid, enjoy your stay
