My wife's old rice cooker made perfect rice and kept it warm for three days. Our new one makes good rice, but if we make three days worth at a time with it, we end up with a large bowl of rice in the fridge.
I take my caffeine cold and carbonated. As I have many ready-made choices, it saves a whole lot of time and anguish which I can put to use later in the day.
Male finishing a 12 mile march, with 40 pounds of equipment, walks to finish line with no problem. Female finishing behind him is barely able to stand, collapses to the ground, and needs encouragement to keep going.
And she expects to be able to be in a combat support role.
My options are to skim these crap stories, find idiot comments like yours, tell you to get off my lawn, and end it with a big FUCK OFF for good measure.
Did I say anything about American exceptionalism? No, I did not.
I pointed out that it isn't proper/. etiquette to bring up the fact that the US isn't one small European country that can change or upgrade "all of their services for X" in one convenient legislative package.
And to put a kick in the message, the list of recent train accidents lists several in Canada and Europe, as well as many Asian countries.
You don't understand how national transportation systems work, apparently. And as much as I wish Congress would eliminate pork, I doubt if Amtrak was the only train running on that section of tracks.
Oh no, there you go. Pointing out that the US doesn't fit the pattern of all those small European countries, or even large, more populous Asian countries.
I just can't stand the AC's line of thought, that the basics of human life only exist because of government. And the more powerful a government, the more basics that will appear.
It doesn't appear that the number of cops killed in a given year in the US has EVER EXCEEDED 300. The highest year on that chart looks like 1974, with 280.
How does that compare with other occupations? Hmmm . . ..
The 10 Deadliest Jobs:
1. Logging workers
Killed: 104
2. Fishers and related fishing workers
Killed: 127
3. Aircraft pilot and flight engineers
Killed: 71
4. Roofers
Killed: 60
5. Structural iron and steel workers
Killed: 18
6. Refuse and recyclable material collectors
Killed: 30
7. Electrical power-line installers and repairers
Killed:
8. Drivers/sales workers and truck drivers
Killed: 485
9. Farmers, ranchers, and other agricultural managers
Killed: 268
10. Construction laborers
Killed: 15
I saw a similar list yesterday when I wrote my message. Insteresting you think the number 300 is an indicator, since none of the six most dangerous jobs come near that number. They have a high percentage just because of the low number of people in the field.

Only because the government insists it has the authority to make that rule. If there was no government, there would be no government-granted business license.

A large portion of it is. Not all of it, but the most vocal part.
Even (most of) the ones in the military now don't want equality, and can barely handle it if they get close to it.

That's fine.

So, you're saying in the lack of a government, people will still create a road to get where they want to go?
Right. I'm asking if that is actually slavery.
Uhhhh - you're pulling emotional strings here. How about we examine the actual numbers of cops killed, nationwide?

How many wives of truck drivers and farm workers wonder every day if their husband will come home alive that night?
Roads and education are only available in areas with governments? How would the drug lords move in, if there are no roads?
Will this help, or will "acute respiratory syndrome" become the new offensive term?
I don't think I would mind a cute respiratory syndrome, .
Yeah. Check out the lungs on that syndrome.

Do you have contempt for Charlie Hebdo as well?
Yeah, because women take their work iPhones into the showers with them.
Such nice, civilized manners you have, sir AC.
Technically, I have seen someone who agreed to be shot in the face. It was even on TV. It was probably before you were born though.

if you "sell yourself", is it actually "slavery"?
In my lifetime the number of Humans controlling 90+% of the world's wealth has shrunk by 300%
So, if before it was 1,000,000 people, now it is 3,000,000 less than that?
How about the steady stream of black (and white (and asian (and hispanic))) cops who are murdered by blacks for doing their jobs?
