[QUOTE="Lily, post: 687957, member: 1283"] I'm going to make just a couple of points. Sometimes you need to look a little deeper. The researchers were published in NEBR's journal, yes. Yet, 2 of 3 do research and I assume teach at the Yale School of Public Health, while the 3rd teaches and does research at the Yale School of Management. You might be surprised, but people don't always work in narrow fields. One common example is that there are trained veterinarians that work in public health. If you think about it, you might figure out why. If not, look it up.

Schwartz Yale School of Public Health 60 College Street New Haven, CT 06510 [email]jason.l.schwartz@yale.edu[/email] My mind is much my own. I have been presented with alternative political thought long before you made it to the Airforce. My parents were both union organizers for the UFW, when i was a 3-4 year old. The UFW was the beginning of more and more politicized activities from my parents. I've been taught things that I believe. Also, other things that I rejected as I grew up and saw the world on my own. The thing being raised in a very politicized environment is that you see corruption from people with all the "best" of political ideals. It is why I'm pretty cynical about politicians of all stripes. Where does ego, ambition, greed and corruption end in that group of people? It doesn't. But we live in the real world and have to choose the best from the some of the worst people out there. I am going to assume you and I are using different language to say the same or similar things. I will continue to reject the idea of "out to get" and remain believing that they aren't out to get us, that's simply an unplanned outcome in their quest for power and money. Greed isn't about having malice for others, maybe it's worse. It's about indifference in the quest for self-aggrandizement. I am not blind to anything. What I am is realistic and powerless. [/QUOTE]
