Bob “Weeda Claus” Constantine (Free State Party) easily defeated Misty the Cat (Maoist Party) to become ambassador-elect to unfree Grafton and other coercive forms of [...]
The tax sinkhole known as the United States military is projecting more development cost overruns in connection with the F-35 joint strike fighter.
Already the most expensive weapons program in history and years behind schedule, writing of approximately 35 million lines of computer code and other testing could cost an additional $5 billion [...]
