You may have noticed the stickers indicating the different octane ratings of the fuels? Whether the higher octane fuel is more costly to produce or better for your car is a different matter, there is a difference between the fuels.
Put an ice cube in a shallow saucer of water and let it melt and the level goes up! If the ice in the water around Greenland melts what do you think is going to happen (and is happening) to the ice on Greenland? Maybe you should learn more science.
There's no reason to. College students are capable of paying for it themselves and as you note, there is a "severe notion" of people paying their own way, which I think is a good notion to have. College education is a privilege. Who's going to pay for "free" college education?
You're the type of fool who would be saying the same thing about educating children in schools if you lived a hundred a years ago, just because you believe another tier of education is a privilege that requires payment of hundreds of thousands of dollars does not make it so, some of us like the idea of living in a world with a perpetually rising standard of education among the population, of course it doesn't fit everyone's selfish agenda.
Paying to "own" land for the pathetic duration of your life gives you little right to permanently pollute it. The idea that it does is egotistical in the extreme.
Your opinions are as well- if not more- informed than Mr Ballmer's, I would certainly vote you onto the Microsoft board given the opportunity. By the way, I was being sarcastic, feel free to threaten to leave Slashdot, I assure I will treat the threat with the same gravitas the EU would show any threat from Microsoft to pull out of the market.
You may notice the word "much" in my post which basically precludes the possibility of bigotry. However your accusation is a fine example of the inherently tyrannical of too many nations. Don't like what someone is saying? Attack them!
The "Tyranny of the mob" is a fallacy designed to get you to believe that the best option is to have an overpaid idiot representing you on your behalf because you're too greedy and stupid to do it sensibly yourself. It draws strongly upon that most innate instinct, the fear of others.
Of course you may be American in which case much of the mob actually is tyrannical.
Great, how about you take the capitalist approach and set up your toxic chemical recycling facility? Simple, I'm sure recycling every toxic material will be straightforward.
What a lot of fucking bullshit, it's the job of the lender to ensure that the customer can repay, that's called responsible banking. Remember it?
Beyond that if bankers were being rewarded for doing a good job that may well be acceptable, with reasonable bounds, in fact they are making a fortune while making a complete arse of their jobs.
Also your comparison to Jews and gingers is farcical.
No, because living in America on the wages paid in Mexico or the far East is not possible. Corporate greed doesn't care if it kills local neighbourhoods. Any point you try to make about so called "union fat cats" is going to look pretty farcical when stacked against the actions of the upper echelons of business.
So if OP gets his gun and follows the leech around threateningly until he goads him into talking to him or scaring in some way first then he should be OK to shoot him? Don't want to get on the wrong side of the law here!
That's borderline sociopathy. It's also a Margaret Thatcher misquote. I would say you're quite welcome to leave society, unfortunately given that it's presence is inescapable you wouldn't be able to. Of course you could be blasted into space alone, but that would mean society paying to do that for you, and of course a rugged Randian individualist like yourself would doubtless find that unconscionable.

Funny, I've read so many of your posts saying how well you know Linux when you are slagging it off.
I'm looking forward to the year you spend legally dead so I don't have to listen your abhorrent opinions.

Is there any other kind of churchgoer?
Fabulous turn around to back on topic, 10/10.
I have a program that will do all this and make the hackers computer explode, email me $500 to buy it.

Wow, your insight is fascinating, tell me, how deep into your arse did you have to reach to find this particular nugget?

Heaven forbid citizens from turning on their over fed masters, the world might fall to pieces.

Not by the people who worked to get that money to give it to the banks?

At least the unions didn't crash the global economy, so I'd still take them over most bankers and CEOs.
Talk to an Australian, they'll set you right about that preconception.
society doesn't exist, only people

You missed reliability, remembering the xbox red ring fiasco I'd bet these things start dropping like flies after 6 months to a year.
Bravo sir.
It's hypocritical when you try to deny it to others.
