Why TheRationalThinker.com?
Rational thinking is the ability to draw sensible conclusions from facts, logic, and data.
In simple words: If your thoughts are based on facts and not emotions.

This website provides a rational perspective on the surveillance economy and other economic, social & political topics and events that matter to us.
