  1. Re: penn state not allowing outdoor trips.

    So instead of teaching students how to survive in the wild and deal with wild animals and possible poisonous plants, instead, they are limiting them to an artificial environment, controlled by human hands, and exposing them entirely to humans who can do much worse harm than any wild animal. I’d much rather take my risk on the wild animals, because they don’t have souls or the reasoning ability to actually be mailicious.

  2. Amalgamated bank owns an estimated 7,500 shares of Ruger stock?
    Its not going to matter what they want because their tiny holding is insignificant.
    They should sell their shares and move on.

  3. It also seems that Serenbe, GA is only for the elite. The lowest price item is an empty lot for $400K, and it goes up to a Condo for $1.5M. One the edge of Atlanta to boot. Without security, it will sadly be overrun quickly when any disaster hits the Atlanta area. I live 2 hours South, and that is too close, but I don’t have much of a choice right now.

  4. Not to make a solution of a problem to simple for the Penn State administrative decision, but come on now. Cut your ties to the school, meet in a pizza joint , give them the finger, and continue on with your pursuit of nature. It’s not like you need their funding or their meddling when you are off campus. If you want to be a door mat submit, but you will establish a habit for the rest of your life if you do.

  5. RE: Chinese tools- Americans have long abandoned the idea of hard work and manufacturing, instead we sent our kids to School with the idea that manual labor is bad, wanting better for our kids, we left the idea of hard work, ( and the tools that go with it ) to the less developed nations.

  6. Serenbe Georgia, ick, a bunch of wealthy, white wine sipping hipster hippies, The mansion with the Olympic sized pool sort of put me off as well as restraints serving the latest haut cuisine.
    Not a solar panel in sight.

  7. “….similarities between the Nazi Weapons Law of March 18, 1938 and the U.S. Gun Control Act of 1968.”

    Similarities????
    It’s almost a verbatim translation!

  8. I can’t say for US made versus foreign made tools, but I can say for old vs new tools. I have an old Craftsman 3/8″ drive ratchet that was handed down to me by my wife’s g’father (a salty self-made cuss – I miss him). Still going strong. I’m not sure I’ll pass it on down to, none of my offspring seem interested in handy work.

  9. I’m in the process of moving. A few weeks back I was in Walmart and they were unloading some product and had about 20 nice boxes which they allowed me to have for free. Anyone who has moved a family knows it takes a lot of boxes so this was a great find. Of course I also bought boxes at Walmart and Home Depot. You would simply not believe how fragile those free Chinese made boxes are, almost tissue paper fragile. Not complaining, I still used them, saved me perhaps $50 or so. But their quality in my opinion is typical of the quality of most of what I have seen from China.

  10. I think a planned community of up to 600 people won’t be able to grow enough food on that small a piece of land, no matter what they do. Once they subtract living structures of any kind from it, it becomes pretty obvious what it really is – a commune for tree-huggers and trust fund babies.

    1. With aquaponics and permaculture, food forest type farming they should easily be able to feed themselves. The big issues will be in the event of any TEOTWAWKI. Lack of security and off-grid power will be crippling if not fatal.

  11. The Daily Wire version of this article stated:

    It seems the problem with the Outing Club was that it occasionally enjoyed the outdoors, and some students hiked, biked, and canoed beyond the reach of cell phone towers,

    which put them at risk of being disconnected from classmates and the rest of the world for short periods of time,

    even though that might be the entire point of an outdoors club.
