A report on Michigan’s downward economic spiral and outmigration at Detroit News. Michigan has lost population equivalent to the size of its three largest cities over the past eight years. Half of all Michigan college graduates leave the state. Have you noticed those “come to Michigan” ads on TV? Now you know why. Ohio, Indiana, and Michigan seem to have been hit hard by the economic downturn. Too bad the Democrats didn’t focus on stimulating employment in their “stimulus” bill.
General Motors’ restructuring is unlikely to help Michigan’s downward spiral. Why won’t President Obama support GM’s transition plan? Bloomberg reports on GM’s finances and Obama’s refusal to give GM more time to restructure its debt for equity.

Nicholas Dawidoff has a nice long article on physicist Freeman Dyson at The New York Times Magazine. Dyson is probably the most eminent scientist debunking global warming, but there is much more to Dyson than debunking global warming. The interview is also useful for Dyson’s insight into scientific arrogance and the problematic psychology of obsessive theoreticians driven by ambition and a love of blowing things up. (more…)

The U.S.-Communist China alliance broke apart in September of 2008 when China announced that its banks would no longer make loans to the United States. Reuters had a brief story on this announcement. Unfortunately the U.S.-China diplomacy from this point is shrouded in mystery, but we can infer a couple of points from subsequent actions. (more…)

Hannah Fearn at Times Higher Education has an article on the warring factions of anthropology departments. Fearn presents this divide as evolutionary anthropologists versus social anthropologists. Actually, there are more schools of anthropology than these two, but Fearn offers an oversimplified public introduction to the subject, with varied commentary, that may be helpful to the new student.
“In some departments they hardly speak. … universities now face a challenge in keeping their anthropology departments operating civilly.”
Students entering the study of anthropology should be warned in advance that they are entering a fragmented and politicized discipline. They may be forced to choose sides very early in their career and waste their time negotiating their way through academic politics.
The article generally ignores the fact that feminist anthropology has now been entirely discredited by follow-up research studies by responsible anthropologists. Some comments in this article treat feminist anthropology as a sort of unfortunate failed series of hypotheses rather than a bogus political movement based on sloppy research methods offering false conclusions as part of the Marxist takeover of the academy.
Readers of The Hidden Masters understand the fatal flaw of anthropology and are spared from wasting their time with pseudoscientific poseurs and academic politics. What should we do about the war between the Marxists and the Darwinists inside the universities? Answer: cut the socialist funding for all of them. Let them find their own sources of funding. An unfunded Marxist has an opportunity to become a polite and responsible member of a society and find a productive occupation.

NWOU is on the lookout for stories about local governments dealing with the bad outcomes of the socialist takeover. Now that California’s budget problems are forcing the state to cut funding for counties, the counties must also cut spending to balance their budgets. CBS News reports that Sacramento County will begin denying nonemergency health care to illegal aliens next month. Those who depend on socialism eventually end up feeling betrayed by its false promises. (more…)
