I assume you're talking about the 1886 SCOTUS case Santa Clara County (yes, that's Silicon valley) vs. Southern Pacific. Itsaid that corporations had the rights of individuals under the 14th amendment.
Funny how conservatives talk about liberal activist courts. I don't see a single mention of corporations in the 14th amendment.
And obviously corporations have more rights than individuals. Corporations don't have death penalthy cases with a court appointed defense lawyer making $8 an hour. Corporations aren't drafted to fight wars.
The Republican party had rapidly changed, Lincoln said this in 1864: "I see in the near future a crisis approaching that unnerves me and causes me to tremble for the safety of my country. . . . corporations have been enthroned and an era of corruption in high places will follow, and the money power of the country will endeavor to prolong its reign by working upon the prejudices of the people until all wealth is aggregated in a few hands and the Republic is destroyed." However, all 9 justices at the time (and it was a 9-0 ruling) were appointed by Republicans, including 2 by Lincoln himself.
It requires early voting, and "no-excuse" absentee ballots, which many states already have. In Ohio, some voters had to stand in line for 10 hours election night. This bill will make it easier for people who work a lot to vote, they can just fill out an absentee ballot at home and mail it in, or perhaps early vote on a Saturday.
I'll admit he got very lucky. The tech jobs graph looks like it was rigged for Clinton and against Bush. But the thing is
1. Even ignoring tech jobs, the job sitation was pretty good under Clinton, and still not break even under Bush 2. Eventually you have to come to the conclusion that either Democrats are all very lucky, or that they're doing something better.
As for the Internet, this seems to indicate that the bidding for the ARPANET contract started in 1968, under the LBJ adminstration. Here
Private employment increased by 21.7 million under the Clinton adminstration. Private employment has decreased 1.8 million under the Bush adminstration.
I can't figure out how to link to these other statistics directly, but go here and choose "Total Private Employment - Seasonally Adjusted" or whatever.
Some FL counties never did a recount in FL in 2000. The recount was not completed when it was ended. Gore's only mistake was not calling for a statewide recount.

Umm, inflation and growth in the economy are 2 different things. But in any case, the national debt is increasing right now in both real dollars and as a fraction of the GDP.
Countries with socialized medicine tend to have longer life expenctancies than the US.
The tax cut did not go to everyone who earned income. You had to pay federal income tax first. There are plenty of other taxes that people who earn less pay: wage taxes, sales taxes, gas taxes, and so on. Most of Bush's tax cuts have been for the wealthy.
Federal non-military discrentionary spending is less than both the defense budget and interest on the debt. Keep that in mind.
Sales tax is a regressive tax. It affects the poor much more than the rich.
National debt as a fraction of the GDP has gone down under every Democratic President since World War II.
For some reason the surplus/deficit per year and the change in the national debt don't seem to match up.
Anyways, there was an $87 billion surplus in 2000, and that's taking into account that we borrow $160 billion a year from Social Security (so if you count it the other way, it was more like $240-250 billion). We may run a deficit this year of over $700 billion. That's scary.
If you have an entangled EPR pair, measuring one collapses the other into the same state. You can share random data, not useful for transmitting information.
The quantum teleportation technique relies on you sending classical information that doesn't break the speed of light limit.

Testing to see if something depletes ozone can be done in a lab. It's really not speculation to say that CFCs destroy ozone.
No, lots of states don't have it. For instance, Ohio. They might not have had those 10 hour lines if they had "no-excuse" absentee voting.

Jeff Gannon does not, he was hiding his identity.

FDR and Truman were in power for 20 years, and got pretty good job growth, so I'm not sure how long range you're thinking?
This is seaonally adjusted.
It peaked March 2001 at 3,718,000
It's now 3,170,000.

" We weren't aware there were databases that could be destroyed just by copying them,' Bob Williams of the Center for Public Integrity said Tuesday."
Maybe they're using a quantum database?
You're wrong. Because of a prior felony record, crimes that wouldn't otherwise be a felony become a felony. He stole one slice of pepporoni pizza.

We need to get rid of our own terrorists before we try to claim we're morally superior to the terrorists.

The national debt in real dollars did decrease. But that doesn't seem to explain the discrepenacy, either.
