Bumped from 10-5-17---The Last Words Of Ambassador Stevens In Benghazi Have Been Revealed | Daily Wire
The Last Words Of Ambassador Stevens In Benghazi Have Been Revealed | Daily Wire: "Ambassador Christopher Stevens and three other Americans - U.S. State Department staffer Sean Smith and Navy SEALs Glen Doherty and Tyrone Woods - were murdered during a 13-hour terror attack on our consulate in Benghazi, Libya, that started on the night of September 11, 2012.
...Stevens' harrowing last words:

...Two-time failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton was serving as secretary of state under President Barack Obama at the time of the attack, an attack she initially, and falsely, blamed on an anti-Islam YouTube video.
According to an 800-page report released from the House Benghazi Committee, Clinton's State Department refused or ignored repeated requests for increased security on the compound, which they knew was undermanned.
Moreover, it was determined that the "administration failed to respond in time, in part because of political concerns." Daily Wire's James Barrett reports:
Then-Defense Secretary Leon Panetta ordered U.S. forces to be deployed to rescue our personnel in Benghazi.
Though they were mobilized to a staging area in Italy and were ready to take action, not a single asset he ordered deployed ever left the ground.
The damning reasons for this failure include political concerns about how the Libyan government wanted our military personnel dressed..."

"...Various observations that have been made about the huge divergence in price patterns over the last several decades include:
a. The greater (lower) the degree of government involvement in the provision of a good or service the greater (lower) the price increases (decreases) over time, e.g., hospital and medical costs, college tuition, childcare with both large degrees of government funding/regulation and large price increases vs. software, electronics, toys, cars and clothing with both relatively less government funding/regulation and falling prices..."
Blue lines = prices subject to free market forces. Red lines = prices subject to regulatory capture by government. Food and drink is debatable either way. Conclusion: remind me why socialism is so great again.
