Google+ Account Suspended? You Won't Find Out Why
jfruh writes "Dan Tynan is a tech writer and blogger who discovered, while trying to post links to his writing on his Google+ profile, that his account had been suspended. This despite the fact that he used his real name and didn't violate the terms of service in any other way. Upon appeal his account was reinstated, just as mysteriously as it was shut down, but along the way he discovered a rash of people with suspended Google+ accounts who can't figure out what they did to anger the Google gods."
It's going great! How's Romney going? With his empathy towards unemployment, after-all, he has been for a while too. And his ability to directly relate with the people! I don't like either side of the argument, I just hate propaganda that is single-sided (I guess all of it is.) I really wish our nation would collectively come together and demand suggested actions that the people will take, detailed action plans and the like, and require that the president follow-through with them or justify the lack-of following their own action plan.
Attention leftist free software hippies!
Hows that free Obamacare colonoscopy going?
Iran marching toward a nuclear weapon
Egypt and Libya handed over to the Islamists on a silver platter
45% increase in debt.
Regulatory policies strangling business
That perfect health care for all, casuing businesses to not hire and drop coverage to put more people on the dole.
Unemployment above 8%
GDP Growth below 2%
Changed his mind four times on that OBL kill, which was set up by the hardwork of Bush, Bush worked 8 strong, Obama got the save.
Domestic energy production hamstrung, while billions of tax dollars wasted on masturbatory green energy companies, run by his cronies.
A racist running the Justice Department.
Hundreds of Mexican citizens and a US law enforcement officer dead because of Obama/Holder's agenda on guns.
Photo ID laws being challenged because they interfered with typical Democrat voters, the Dead and Illegal Aliens.
Chrysler bondholders screwed out of their money so the UAW could receive a giant wad of cash in the illegal government takeover of the Auto industry.........
Yeah, he's a raving success.
Business isn't around to "hire", as every right winger I've ever met is so quick to point out, yet every time I hear one spouting tax cuts for business (so they'll hire) and less regulation (so they'll hire). It seems to me you right wing freaks should take your own advice. Business is there to make money. Corporate charters require that the CEO do everything in his power to increase profit at any cost. Externalize as much as possible. I don't know of anything in corporate bylaws that talks about hiring people, so you can stop trying to have it both ways. Once you take the regulations away, corporations will still not hire, but they'll be sure to externalize more cost! (dumping, spilling and general polluting, rip-offs, scams, false claims, fake ingredients, price fixing, monopolizing) Remember...oh wait, you're a right winger, so you don't read. Well, there is a REASON those REGULATIONS were put into place. Because your "self-correcting" "free-market" doesn't regulate itself, contrary to current popular corporate propaganda. We've been in a time of rampant capitalism before and it didn't go well. I'm not sure what makes you think it would go well this time. CEOs are still dying to externalize anything. Corporate bylaws and charters still call for profit at any cost. If anything, no regulation would be even more destructive now. So please tell me, who's going to clean up the messes corporations make? The tax payer? Yup. Yeah, that's capitalism.

In fact, corporate profits have been through the fucking ROOF for years. Where's the hiring? You stupid or what? So they sit on trillions now not hiring, but you think a few more billion in tax cuts and some savings my externalizing costs to the tax payer are going to help? Please explain how. What basically doing is giving your kid a billion dollars to buy a new car, but the kid won't buy the car, so you think maybe giving him another billion will prompt him to buy it. Guess what? The kid is smart and he's not going to buy another car unless he needs it. In fact, with no regulation to deal with, I'd expect even less employment and higher profit. So, you want less employment and higher profit for corporations and that's good for society in general how?
Quit being hippies. We all know that big business is struggling and they're not hiring because they cannot find the talent in the states. It is their duty to hire and pay fair wages. Jeesh, this is America!! Home of the Free and the well-employed! We had to outsource because Americans couldn't do the work anymore. Lol, profits as main goal. You fools. It's not like we'd use slaves if it weren't illegal.
Inquiring minds want to know:
Does your PC fit in the same number of cubic inches the mini does? And your PC has all the same features out of the box, right? Wifi, bluetooth, usb, network, thunderbolt, hdmi/dvi, dual display output, digital audio, analog audio, firewire 800, SDXC card slot?
And of course you can get all this with an i5 for $599.
And you get OS X, which is pretty much the deal-maker for me.
I'm just asking. Sure, we're all price sensitive, but under some circumstances saving a few hundred bucks is shooting yourself in the foot. Every time I've looked at a PC, that's the impression I've walked away with: Yeah, I'd spend less money, but I'd have less computer, lose more desk space, spend more time on maintenance, and be stuck using a really crappy OS. Divide that few hundred bucks over years of ownership, and it just looks like not spending it would be... a bad idea.
Just STFU and Believe!

You see, this is where we America in particular got lost. We lost sight of the fact that we are a society and that Capitalism was originally intended as a better system for encouraging everyone to collaborate for the common good of all citizens. Those that offer jobs and those that fulfill the needs of the jobs are in a symbiotic relationship. The executive boards of the corporations are small in numbers, not able to do the actual amount of work their companies need to bring in the revenue and everyone needs a job to feed and clothe their families and things they need to be able to go to work. The idea is that there is a supposed to be a balance between these two parties that produces the ideal amount of economic output, making the lives of everyone in the country as good as possible. To not acknowledge this and not try to do your best to facilitate this or even worse trying to circumvent or abuse it for your own gain is being a bad citizen. What good are corporations that take so much money out of the system that there is no money left for everyone else? They wouldn't survive very long because eventually they wouldn't have any employees and that would result in a total economic collapse.
This reminds me of the song by Alice Cooper, "Lost in America"
"I can't get a girl
cuz I ain't got a car
I can't get a car
cuz I ain't got a job
I can't get a job
cuz I ain't got a car
So I'm looking for a girl with a job and a car
Don't you know where you are
Lost in America"
We'll make great pets
