3874 [lbo-talk] pesticides are bad for kids -- rank: 190

I see what you're saying about the ADHD label, but I don't think your conclusion follows. The study is of the higher percentage of pesticides in urine of kids who have been diagnosed with the label. If it was purely an issue of the label being too liberally applied ...

3879 [lbo-talk] Chomsky and the Tea Party -- rank: 190

Well, saying to pollsters that the tea party is closer to one's views than Obama is a little different than saying one is supportive of the Tea Party. Polls are a little contradictory about the Tea Party. One Pew poll from April says that 24 percent of Americans support the ...

3880 [lbo-talk] Chomsky on Tea Partiers -- rank: 190

Chomsky has explicitly denied that he considers the tea partiers as a working class uprising. "Rather, as petty bourgeois with substantial appeal to the working class -- incidentally, as the Nazis were." But they may include 18% 0f the population. He's spoken and written about this, e.g., at the Left ...

3881 [lbo-talk] Chomsky on Tea Partiers -- rank: 190

Chomsky keeps implying that the Tea Partiers are a bunch of working class folks victimized by neoliberalism. I wonder if he has seen the numerous studies showing that the Tea Partiers are, to a large extent, privileged middle class and upper middle class workers and petit bourgeois who really don't ...

3885 [lbo-talk] London Underground's Privatization Experiment Dead as Remaining PPP is Bought Out -- rank: 190

[WS:] I do not think that the main reason for PPPs is wage reduction, as Gail suggests. Grunts providing direct services may be paid less, but for executive compensations and consultancy fees sky is the limit. AFAIK, the key determinant of employee compensation is the industry sector and geographic region ...
