False. New Civil Engineers are hard to come by. Many cities have had to start doing nation wide recruiting. Biomed scientists are in strong demand, same with chemists. I get calls for people looking to hire software developers. I could go on and on.
"I opposed it because marriage is none of the Federal government's f*ing business. " but it is. It shouldn't be, but it is.There are thousands of federal rules and laws with the word married in them. So denying gay marriage is denying those right. That's why I'm for it. Would I rather the government got rid of those laws? yes.
Then there are thousand of uses of the word married in insurance, contract, housing, and so on.
Opposing the laws in this context is bigotry and depriving people of rights. You may not hate people who are gay, but you are acting just like people who do.
"is it okay for the state to tell someone who they must do business with? " Yes. When a group is in a position they can't get services, and goods. There are many more specific and clear reason written by people smarter than me*.
Yes, lets thrown in the towel because something that has never been done, something using well into bleeding edge technology is behind budget. All based on a report from a contractor who makes more money if the report finds problems. This is why it's complaining mostly about intangibles.
"All the report has shown is that humans are greedy and the bureaucracy expands to fill the needs of the expanding bureaucracy." that has been shown to be false over and over again, as a rule. It happens, but nothing here, or anywhere, is proof its a universal rule, or even a natural by product of a bureaucracy.
Remember , humans invented bureaucracy so we can do complex things well.
You got it all: Elitist: ". NEVER buy a "big box" store bike, for a ton of reasons."
Entitled: "infrastructure " i.e. we want you to design the city for us..at other peoples expense.
Persecution " and societal attitudes. Namely that bicycles are toys, not serious transportation," "noting that cyclists are treated like any other minority outgroup."
Superiority " I generally find that drivers have far less understanding of the basic rules of the road and what cyclists are allowed to do or aren't"
Exaggeration. Also out of context factoid "and does, to the tune of 40,000 a year in the US alone"
Pointless factoids: "Bicycling was HUGE in the late 1800'"
Paranoia "So they fought back with a campaign of ridiculing pedestrians and cyclists. "
Lies: Just as it became the fault of the "jaywalker" for daring to step into the street except where specifically allowed to, suddenly it became the fault of cyclists when motorists plowed into them.
"Bicycling is the most energy-efficient way to move," nope.
That's right it's all the car driver. The Bicyclist never tuck into blind spots, jump on and off the side walk, and violate nearly ever pedestrian and vehicle law there is.
" Obama administration stole 25% of all the money that the federal government was spending in 2009-2011" nonsense, you twit.
". the "stimulus" was about $1 trillion dollars that Obama administration stole in 2009-2011" do you not know what the word 'steal' means?
So tired of you idiots. I Mean, since you can only result to lies to say anything bad about President Obama, he must be doing a pretty damn good job. If he wasn't you could actual use facts instead of lies and misinformation.
I like how you ignores the fact that under his plans everything has improved. deficit? better. Market? healthier. Jobs? unemployment continues to decline. And so on.

Language doesn't matter. Syntax is syntax.
Of course, he can get 6 moths of work for less money on condition that pretty much implies the person needs to work a shit ton hours.
" I don't want someone who knows how to run, I want someone who loves running."
code for "I want people to work a bunch of hours for free and then toss them as soon as they have a person priority."
That makes no sense.
STEM is a huge career field. You don't go into STEM. You go into a specific category that falls in the STEM umbrella.

HA, good one. The older I get the worse my hands get and the harder it is for me to find spelling errors.
Double whammy, my apologies.
Interestingly wold does not trigger a spelling error indicator. so, triple Whammy.
I've worked with CH2M HILL before, and frankly I wold trust anything they say without a serious double check..
