Reminder that there are people who unironically think that Vox and Slate are good and that of all things less biased than Breitbart, Occupy Democrats is.

The ATF is basically a task force for the left to be sent in whenever they thing someone is having too much fun.

If you look at the deal itself, it makes a ton of sense even from a taxation point of view.
$7 million over 10 years is $700k/year for 1000 jobs which is $700/person per year.
I'm pretty sure those workers pay $700/year in income taxes and this is before we factor in things like food stamps and Medicaid that have to be paid to the unemployed.

ShamefurDispray got a reaction from SuperComrade in Penicillin vs. Sulfa Drugs vs. Phage Therapy
Just finished my paper so I will post a bit about infection treatment. First let's talk about sulfa drugs.
Sulfa drugs are compounds that produce sulfonamides. They were not antibiotics but antimicrobials since they inhibited further growth of microbes rather than killing them. The first sulfa drug was arsephenamine (Salvarsan), introduced in 1910 and was a pretty shitty drug with terrible adverse effects and were a pain to store and administer. Although it was a shitty drug, it was a good treatment to syphilis, dubbed the 'magic bullet' because it was toxic to certain microbes but not humans. It was the most used antimicrobial until the 1940s.
Sulfa drugs became famous due to Prontosil, discovered in 1932. It was widely known because it successfully and quickly treated Franklin Delano Roosevelt's son who had a bad case of strep throat infection. Although it had awful side effects such as vomitting and kidney damage, it became famous and grabbed world wide attention as it was synthetic, showing that synthetic drugs had huge potential and directly killed off phage therapy in the West as the former was much easier to administer and had rapid results.
How do sulfa drugs work? Sulfa drugs are either sulfonamides or are pro drugs that break down into sulfonamides. They work by the competitive inhibition of dihydropteroate synthetase (DHPS), responsible for folate synthesis, inhibiting DNA, RNA and protein synthesis. They are broad spectrum against both Gram positive and Gram negative bacteria and are generally used to cure minor infections, especially in the urinary tract. They are terrible for anyone with compromised immune systems because they are bacteriostatic instead of bactericidal.
Resistance is very common, with different mechanisms such as decreased membrane permeability, mutated enzymes for the synthesis of folate and increased PABA production to compete for the active sites that the inhibitor takes.
Next time, I will post about beta-lactam antibiotics, the most famous of which being penicillin.

Sure loving the new "open" and "transparent" liberal government with more "openness" if you pay $500/plate while "increasing" transparency by repealing the First Nations Financial Transparency Act which required aboriginals to disclose their expenditures to receive federal funding to combat rampant corruption that is plaguing those communities; all while without increasing parliamentary transparency.
The difference with the Conservative Party is that they don't at least make promises the opposite of what they were going to do.
