Thank you for posting this video. The situation described by Roosh (hedonistic women sleeping around and only seeking pleasure) and his solution (adaption to that) is foreign to me. Most women at university or at work were different from that. Lets assume for the sake of the argument that his game works, that you then can convince a woman to change for the better and become a better person. Do you want to live with somebody who is influenced by extrinsic motivation and learns not by reflection?

Lets say you have H20, one is artificially made, the other one is 'natural'. How can you tell the difference? Where do you draw the line? Are anaesthetics 'unnatural'? -

What are artificial chemicals? -
The three nervous systems (sympathetic, parasympathetic, vagal) form a feedback loop with the organs they are connected to. When you are frightened, your heart rate goes up, digestion stops, your blood pressure goes up and so on. However, you can use the feedback loop to your advantage. When you feel calm and secure, you will stand straight and you will take on a 'dominant' pose. Taking a dominant pose and standing straight does in turn make you feel calm and secure. The causal relation works both ways. This allows you to gradually change your basic emotions over some time by remaining in positions that cause the wanted emotions or states of mind.

I have a great idea for a new car. Lets remove the cabin, two wheels, have only one more seat behind the driver who sits behind the steering wheel. Lets call this new model Car Plus.

Rockets carry both the fuel and the oxidizing agent with them. Put those together, generate heat or a spark and you have ignition. The ignition does not happen in space, but within the rocket. Then, it's propelled outward through muzzles. Also, there is insulation for the fuel. Too bad they can be seen from earth. I would do some more research.

protectionism for infant industries?

Free trade is beneficial when both parties have a comparative advantage over each other in different fields. This can also include the seniorage of issueing a global accepted currency which is what we see since the introduction of the Petrodollar. -
This video explains Rashomon, a masterpiece by Kurosava, in great detail. If you want to truly enjoy the movie, check it out first (spoiler alert). There are many layers to Rashomon and this professor helps unveiling them. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9UlDviYbGYI

Thank you Marco. One can wonder why the private owners of the mines did not clean up the mess they made? I guess it's easier to privatize the profits and to socialize the negative externalities. -

Where did the waste water come from? Who produced it? -
Watching videos on the New World Order does not make you an expert. What else is the basis of your economic education? Does that ring a bell? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dunning%E2%80%93Kruger_effect

I suggest reading a book on biology first. Moths orient themselves during nighttime per an angle to the moon light. When there is an unnatural source of light, they orient towards it. Since the unnatural source is a lot closer, this causes them to fly towards it in an Archimedic spiral, resulting in their early demise. Moths did not adapt to artificial light because it is pretty recent and because the loss of a few moths does not matter that much. I highly doubt that.

Of course not. To see how foolish your ideas are, do a simple calculation. Calculate the Force created by Drag at sea level by an object with a cw of 0,1 traveling at 6000 km/h.

The second stage is ignited in space. There you don't have drag. And to explain it quite simple: the drag becomes stronger by the square, relative to the speed. To get from Mach 2,5 to 5 you need four times the energy.

Anybody with highschool knowledge in physics can do that. Which is what L1 and L2 do. Too bad there are satelittes in these places.

Few who critisize Kant read him. For the live of me I don't understand where all that ire comes from. Déscartes' attempt is very similar to Praxeology. Ironically, Austrians use Kantian terms all the time (synthetic knowledge a priori is one of them) though most are not aware what they mean anymore.

You have to wait for some time until the liver has grown. If there is a defect in the liver right from the start, you don't have progenitors cells and or mesynchemal derived cells that 'work'. These are needed for the liver to grow properly and to keep functioning into your adult life. Until stem cell resarch and other methods have matured, there is little you can do to correct a malfunctioning liver for a baby. Plus, new research indicates that these fetal liver cells can also help adults who have dysfunctional liver.

The demand will stay the same as it is now. If a baby or a toddler has a malfunctioning liver for example, their only chance to make it to a transplant is getting liver cells from an aborted child or from a baby.
