Lincoln And Obama Comparison

For all those comparing Barack Hussein Obama to Abraham Lincoln, this excerpt from a speech on tariffs highlights the main difference. Lincoln did not believe in wealth redistribution.

During a tariff discussion on December 1, 1847, just before assuming his seat in the House of Representatives, Lincoln said this:

“And, inasmuch [as] most good things are produced by labour, it follows that [all] such things of right belong to those whose labour has produced them. But it has so happened in all ages of the world, that some have laboured, and others have, without labour, enjoyed a large proportion of the fruits. This is wrong, and should not continue. To [secure] to each labourer the whole product of his labour, or as nearly as possible, is a most worthy object of any good government.”

Which is better, paper towels or hand dryers? Asap Science explains that paper towels have the upper hand for cleaning bacteria off our hands. But dryers may be better for the environment. So the choice depends on whether you are a cleanly Conservative or a dirty Hippy Liberal. I’m just saying!

There’s a lot of debate about which method of drying your hands is actually the most clean. This video explores the benefits of both and explains which one actually helps keep your hands the most clean.

Around 80% of infectious diseases are spread with our hands—so washing regularly with soap and water is very important—but does the way you dry hands matter? YouTube channel AsapSCIENCE compares paper towel drying with hand dryers to see the effects of both. It turns out that paper towels are a little more effective for two reasons: timing and friction. Using paper towels can be wasteful, though, so if you plan to use them, keep this trick in mind for maximum efficiency.
