It has been my experience that a given person will only do a certain amount of work regardless of how much time he/she is in the office. The boss should be asking how they can motivate people to work more productively rather than assuming that more hours equals more work.
I think this is the same problem that afflicts tech support staff who don't read any log files or error messages that you submit when opening a ticket.
It's not the law that needs to change, it is the braindead jury that voted guilty on this. That's why we are supposed to have juries in the first place, to look beyond the letter of the law.
Once competition pushes the price down to commodity level it is effectively zero because there's no profit in it. So I think the other poster was correct, the problem is the same in that the ability to charge a premium above that commodity price, sometimes called 'economic profit' is removed.
And once the most efficient company becomes the sole supplier, of course it raises prices to start reaping that monopoly benefit. And there's the motivation to enter the market for competitors - prices are above commodity level so there's economic profit to be had. And so on.
Please provide reference for Libertarians who wanted Fed to lower the interest rate. And please explain how jerking around with interest rates and the money supply means 'kept their fingers out of market regulation'.
he should also pro-actively register the same for all the upcoming hurricane names. These are public years in advance. I read on isc.sans.org that someone is already doing so.
The Democrats have had a majority in Congress for the last two years, so I'm not sure how you could believe that they are any less evil than the Republicans. COnstitution continues to be ignored, illegal war continues, etc. I would say there's no material difference between Republicrats and Demopublicans.
How much of that $2/gallon margin is government subsidies, I wonder? Or, how much of that $2/gallon margin is taxes added to gasoline that aren't yet added to this fuel?
Since they are all liars, nothing about their 'policies' is worth anything. Remember GW Chimp telling us he wanted a more humble foreign policy? I suppose Popular Mechanics would have told us that was his 'policy'.

If there were a reasonable expectation of profit they wouldn't need to borrow money from the government.

people get paid in proportion to how difficult management perceives replacing them is. In this, coding is no different than most other jobs.
