"Please check the budget of governments" they are available, and I used to review government budget. City, county state and federal. There isn't really that much waste. Corporations would KILL to have that little waste.
10s of thousands of projects are done by government entities in the US every year without a problem and using a systematic process which keeps the price low.
The fact is, most people don't really know what level of skill, expertise, and work to do most things the government does.
You might want to get a reality check on that opinion.
The Great Society worked. The money for it has been stripped by the pubs. I used to be poor. very poor. No one I knew was having more kids for money. Even the most poor not that doesn't make sense. However low education, emotional stability and boredom can lead to more sex.
The problem we have no has NOTHING to do with Lyndon Johnson. A bunch of banker and financial 'experts' from around the world at the largest institutions lied, cheated, and stole. THAT is why we are in this mess. Had Greece(and the world) been given correct data, they would not be in this mess. Note that countries with strongly regulated financial system weren't hit that badly at all. Countries with good education and health care system. The impact they did feel was do to the country with not so well regulated financial systems being hit.
It's the same thing. Every financial scandal that impacted the economy at large cause the pubs to scream 'it's the social program fault' and never at the actually liars who created the mess.
no no, all these problems are becasue poor people have kids.
Corporation also cost society money. SO they shoudl also pay. 20% on the net no deduction except RnD, 30% on any money leaving the US.
I would also tax 100% on all net over a billion dollars. Put that money into RnD, or hire more people, or get it taxed.
What people discussion economics seem to for get, is that the only way money has value to society is if it is moving.
When you pay a dollar to buy and orange, the dollar is only worth something at the moment of the transaction. In fact, it's worth exactly 1 orange. The orange gets consumed, but the dollar will be a dollar again at it's next transaction.
Yes, yes, I know it's radical idea. Lets all horde are money and watch society crumble. The we can use it to heat out homes as we go back to living in mud huts and afraid of the lightning god.
So? They question is not about taxes. Just saying Lower taxes otr raise taxes is meaningless. It's don't to create an emotional argument and fear mongers. What do you get for those services? Do you kniow what it takes to keep a city running? the 1000's of miles of infrastructure? Safety, etc...
For the record I make nearly 100K, and pay 21% in taxes, all said and done. Minus fuel taxes, I don't want to figure that out. No time, but it's not much. I get about 8 gallons of fuel a week, most weeks.
If my taxes jump to 40%, but in exchange health care an all education was free I would be fine with that becasue it has value to myself, and more importantly, society as a whole.
wrong. The government is accountable to the people, when all is said and done,. Money doesn't vote, people do. We have seen time and time again where the government has fought and one against a multitude of corporation and their abuses. With strong government regulations, you can limit damage corporations do. With out it it means corporation can do whatever they want. We have seen that. we have seen the results from that, it's not pretty.
With out the SSN the government doesn't know who to apply the tax number to.
And you suggestion doesn't change a damn thing, it just creates another UID.
Frankly, anyone using the ID for ANYTHING BUT tax purpose should be given a mandate to stop using it and have the number erased in 12 months. No Entity should be able to share A persons unique ID with any other entity. So you have one for each institution.
" So, they have the right to ask about email accounts at msu.edu when someone applies for a job there." no they don't. The fact that they own the domain doesn't mean I have to divulge I have an account there.
Why? most off the shelf 1000 dollar computers can run anything. The reason it existed in the 90s was dubious at best then. and pointless now.
The current generation of on baord graphic cars can play almost any games at a playable setting. That's certainly a first.
You want a model number scheme the applies to all video cards? here is one called "money": Pay more the 150 dollars. They will pretty much do it. Want the super card with every sparkle doing things you can see? spend 400 dollars there you go. Yes, you can argue technical semantics, but for the person he is talking about it will be fine.
nullhulland drive: It shows the mob destroying a mans life until ha agree to cast an unkown actress. CPU model numbers are fine.
i3 i5 i7. Biger has more power. 220, 3470 etc... bigger is more power.
Using power in a general form for overall performance, not just speed.
I haven't had a driver issue in any nVidia card in well over a decade. I won't buy that other chip for personal reason, not technical(although I hear their drivers suck)
If he didn't mention the year, I would have sworn it was circa 2001..and I would ahve agreed with himi at that time. Now? power is outstripping resources to use it too fast to be that particular.
" "We were blaming it on the police. The police were blaming it on the courthouse. We didn't know what was going on."" Maybe you should stop blaming people for things when you don't know what's going on?
""Something mystical was going on,"" And there it is. people ascribe something as mystical and then they stop using their brain. This is why SCAMs* are dangerous. "It's energy and mysterious? well then I guess we can't find a real answer." This thing happens, and it's always in the same area. Clearly Aliens.
"Most drivers were forced to read their owner's manual to learn how to access their manual key, Camara said." Sigh.

"Mans natural state is to beat lesser men into submission and then take as many mates as he can." As it turns out, that may not be true. Not doing that may have been a critical pressure increasing the odds of our evolutionary dominance.
Non monogamous society lead to genetic defects, disease and lower IQs. Not to be confuse with society's where A person inst monogamous.
There is a wide difference between two people doing it missionary posting, and someone strung up by there nipples being beaten by a masked individual as someone masturbating in the background.
" The whole "think of the chiiiildren" agenda is stupid." False. Using that as the reason in and of itself is incorrect.
Children can be traumatized, and it appears years later.
Of course, to really have a discussion we need to define some parameters for our discussion of porn. Is it playboy? is it violent? degrading? All these our important factors.

as long as all the share holders are personally fined whenever the company breaks the law, I would be fine with that.
Corporation exist to avoid person responsibility.
And they should not be able to use any backbone paid with tax dollars.
I guess thats we birth rates are down.

You're not going to flamebait by posting something people agree with.

yes, it's the autocorrect that's stupid.
