A skeptical leftist's, or post-capitalist's, or eco-socialist's blog, including skepticism about leftism (and related things under other labels), but even more about other issues of politics. Free of duopoly and minor party ties. Also, a skeptical look at Gnu Atheism, religion, social sciences, more.
Note: Labels can help describe people but should never be used to pin them to an anthill.

Volt doesn't make a lot of sense
That's the word of Consumer Reports, which notes that the model it bought for testing, after a $5K GM markup (which eliminates federal tax breaks — way to go, company that's been on the federal dime!) costs twice as much as a Toyota Prius AND, if driven enough to have to switch to its gas motor, can actually get lower mileage.
