Riding the COVID Wave, Non-citizen Flippy, at $3 an Hour, to Replace White Castle Workers
[image: riding-the-covid-wave-non-citizen-flippy-at-3-an-hour-to-replace-white-castle-workers] Well, Flippy finally has a new job. It was March when I reported on the burger-flipping kitchen worker, who does his job dutifully, never goes home, doesn’t get sick or take bathroom breaks and won’t unionize — and can be had for $3 an hour. He’s also a non-citizen who doesn’t need a visa and doesn’t care if you have a beef with his taking your job. Flippy, you see, is a robot.

I Know It Sounds Insane, But Brian Kemp Actually Wants To Kill Georgians-- And He's Getting Away With It
Georgia was one of the early, hard-hit states in the pandemic. But unlike other early states, Georgia is led by a right-wing ideologue, Brian Kemp, who learned nothing at all about public health and seems to care no a whit about the residents of his state. While the coronavirus is under control in New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts, Connecticut and the other early states, Georgia's pandemic is bigger than ever. Wednesday, Georgia reported the 4th biggest one-day new cases in the country, right below Texas, Florida and California-- and worse off than Arizona! Georgia had 3,871 n... more »
"When Will The Madness End?"
*"When Will The Madness End?"* by Jeffrey Tucker "I was sitting in the green room in a Manhattan television studio on the day that the storm seemed to hit. It was Thursday, March 12, 2020, and I was waiting anxiously for a TV appearance, hoping that the trains wouldn’t shut down before I could leave the city. The trains never did shut but half of everything else did. On this day, everyone knew what was coming. There was disease panic in the air, fomented mostly by the media and political figures.

*Michael Peck* *Security, Americas* A crazy idea that just might work. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *One reason the U.S. military wants fuel-based warhead is because next-generation munitions will be smaller, which presumably means less space for both propellant and warhead, and thus an incentive to combine the two. The research proposal also speaks of the utility of dual-use fuels “particularly for air superiority,” which suggests that a fuel-based warhead would allow more smaller and more maneuverable air-to-air missiles. The military uses explosives to blow things up. T... more »

Russia's Long Love Affair With Bullpup Rifles
*Caleb Larson* *Security, Eurasia* A rich history. *Key Point*: These bullpups are short in length, quiet, and massively powerful— seemingly the perfect small arms platforms for effective urban combat.
