Coke, Meth And Booze: The Flip Side of the Permian Oil Boom

A subculture of drug cocktails haunts the oil industry.

(LONDON / OilPrice.com) - The fastest-growing oil region in the U.S. is fueling not only the second American shale revolution—it's fueling a subculture of drug and alcohol abuse among oil field workers.

A World Designed by Playground Bullies

One must go deeper than the nearest top story to really accept our democratic responsibilities

(SALEM, Ore.) - “According to the DOJ’s court filing, parents who are not currently in the U.S. may not be eligible for reunification with their children.”

I can’t quite move on with my life after reading a sentence like this. A gouge of incredulity lingers. How is such a cruelly stupid rule possible? What kind of long-term ramification will it have on the entirety of the human race?

Why you should use a Cryptocurrency Calculator

Trading without being fully informed is very risky.

News sources should hold credibility above sensationalism, just to begin with.

(SAN FRANCISCO, Calif.) - Fox News is not, and never has been, a legitimate news network. They began as a project by right-wing propagandist Rupert Murdoch and Republican media strategist Roger Ailes (1940 – 2017) to spread disinformation and promote GOP politicians.

Ailes, the late Fox News chairman and CEO of Fox News, once confessed that his network, despite its name, is not actually in the news business, once stating: “We’re competing with TNT and USA and ESPN.”

The Deadly Side of Irvine That Nobody Wants to Address

The El Toro Marine Corps base has left more than it's saga behind.

This is south Orange County, a place where people have plenty of money and success, but whether they know it or not, the people of Irvine are also part of a dirty, well kept secret.

Trump`s Twisted Foreign Policy

“President Trump proved not only unable, but unwilling to stand up to Putin." - U.S. Senator John McCain (R-AZ)

(SAN FRANCISCO, Calif.) - By constantly belittling our European allies, recently undermining British Prime Minister Theresa May, threatening trade wars with them, Canada and China, undercutting NATO, failure to honor international agreements, Trump’s “America First” foreign policy is becoming an “America Alone” policy.

Trump went to Helsinki for a cozy two-hour one-on-one meeting with Russian president Vladimir Putin.

FDA can be sued in Prescription Opioid Epidemic -- and should be!

"...the clinical evidence review found insufficient evidence to determine long-term benefits of opioid therapy for chronic pain..."

(MYRTLE BEACH, SC) - The FDA's approval of dangerous prescription opioids over the years can best be described as "fire, aim, ready" as the epidemic continues to rage out of control.

I encourage every Attorney General and law firm in the country suing Purdue Pharma, maker of OxyContin to read this filing carefully and apply it to current and future lawsuits.
