Normally when anybody calls to sell something, they dial my cell and I get angry at them for it, I immediately tell them what I think of them and of their company. Then I get them to tell me they will stop, only then I hang up.
You have no point that can be 'proven' in any way. I lived in 'communism' (USSR), 'fascism' (USA), 'socialism' (Canada, Germany, Switzerland) and 'capitalism' (Singapore) to be able to compare these notions and build an opinion. You, on the other hand, are a worthless/. theorist.
My own ideology dismisses collectivization and subjugation of the individual to the collective, which is the exact opposite of every system described here, all of which do exactly that - destroy the individual and promote the collective turning entire nations to slavery.
All forms of government that involve a strong and a growing government will end up totalitarian in nature (dictatorships even).
Socialism, Fascism, Communism have plenty similarities, the main similarity being despotism of some over others and denial of individuality through force of government power.
The entire premise is wrong, they will always end up with a system that has to be corrected because the physical system is not perfectly aligned (so more than 365 days in a year, etc.)
How about abolishing the entire 'natural year' structure altogether then, if they wanted something that wouldn't change?
What year is it? Who cares! Use precise seconds to construct minutes and hours, count the days, use 10 days per week, 10 weeks per months and 10 months per year - done.
No more year based calendar. No more 'once a revolution around the sun' birthday celebrations. No more 'leap' anything if the duration of second is defined just as duration of number of periods of the radiation.
Of-course this calendar would be disconnected from physical manifestation of natural phenomena like seasons and nobody would understand or use it, but the calculations would be as easy as pie.
Gov't funded research is there for war, that's one of 2 purposes:
1. War. 2. Theft.
There is only 1 things that politicians really want to spend on: themselves.
There is only 1 thing wrong with democracy: voters.

The rockets, the computers, the Internet, the phones, the electrical power and electrical instruments, everything we do, we do because we are trying to make a better living for ourselves. Tsiolkovsky developed the theory of rocketry, but until the private sector can really find a use for it and figure out a way to do it, it should NOT BE DONE.
There always must be reasons to do things that are one way or another required by the market (or attempted in order to figure out if they are required by the market.)
If a gov't does it, it's a waste of money, and if some use comes out of it, it's done by destroying other parts of economy, diverting resources, causing resource misallocation, destroying the economy.
Every single thing we do, we must do when we have a good reason to do it, but the most important part of it is this: it must be done by voluntary market participation, NOT by gov't force that puts a gun to your head to steal your money and destroy your own investment opportunities and ideas in order to promote the current ideas of gov't.
As to the Internet, and any other tech that comes out of gov't funded research - how much money was spent on things that NEVER gave any useful output and were a complete waste of resources?
In case of the Internet it's obvious that it was going to happen anyway, and the specific protocol (TCP/IP) was not the best or most important part of the solution.
The early phone grids, electrical grids were not gov't technology, neither had to be the Internet.
Fine: I own a restaurant and I don't want to serve black people. Or hispanics.
- and it's your right.
The Civil Rights Act of 1964 is unconstitutional and it impedes on your right, as a private property owner to do business on your private property as you see fit. That so called 'Rights Act' is actually an Entitlements and Obligations Act, which is a result of overreach of government power and the sections that deal not with government, but with private business and private individuals must be abolished.
IF any of the accidents and incidents with nuclear powerplants (and nuclear weapons) have caused as many deaths and injuries as CARS have (or alcohol or tobacco or other types of powerplants, like coal or hydro), then you'd have half a point.
Come back when nuclear powerplants start killing as many people as anything I have mentioned here.
Somewhat OT but imagine what would have happened had the Greeks realized the true power of steam. That they were tinkering with it is well known. We might have had flying chariots by now!
and what if a great-grandmother had balls? She'd be great-grandfather.
The point is that Babbage did succeed, except it was through his inspiration, which took his ideas and better manufacturing processes and newer knowledge of materials and a refined computing model.
Occam's Razor can be used with sufficient enough certainty to show that there is no Santa and that the gifts are bought by the parents (or somebody else), and the fact that it says "made in China" only confirms this theory.
I wish to speak to you all on the important subject of mod-points. As you all know, much has been done in this area, but there are still a great many things left to do. But knowing this is not enough, it will take real effort and dedication. What we need now is progress. I need progress, I request progress, I demand progress! I am certain, though, that with focus and teamwork, we can continue to make the changes that will allow for a better future. Thank you all for your time.

He is. What did you think democrats are?

Do you know that you can be declared 'terrorist' for example for supporting Ron Paul?
He is now attacked left, right and center as a 'racist'.
It's hilarious and it's disturbing, a guy who delivered black babies for free back when nobody else wanted to is a 'racist' in MSM today.
If you watch this video, then maybe you are a terrorist too.

In fact $49.
It's called 'impact' and games like this are made with it.

Be sorry for the world.

And now there is.

You still owe the "wheel" and the "fire" royalties to me due to my great predecessors, so please.
in fact I did check it in the preview and it does open in any of the 2 browsers I got here, so, maybe it's just your set up.

Oooookaaaay, we have a Mr. 'optimist' here on our hands :)
To the question of: "is it half full or half empty", he always answered: "I never wanted water anyway."
An atheist at that. Was Scrooge an atheist?
