  1. Depends on Do Antibiotics Contribute To Obesity? · · Score: 1

    Not all antibiotics are the same. Some make it difficult to eat.
    The evidence a few years ago pointed to the animals body needing less energy to digest food.
    I don't have access to this new study from this machine, so I won't comment on it. Although I would be surprised, we would have seen obesity much early if this was the case.

    "Disappearing is very, very difficult."
    no, it's trivially easy.

    I like how you plan require 500,000 dollars. THAT"S practical. Oh, and if the country is so corrupt you can bribe officials, then someone is just going to kill you for your cash.

    I love this day in age where someone thinks loading something on youtube is the ultimate stopping power.

    Mastercard didn't do for it because it's a non starter. bitcoin is shit, and it's full of issues. If not, Mastercard would use it to make money they way they do. Mastercard only care about the ability of the currency you can charge against.

    Wow, you are genius! That's a nice response..if your 15.

    You still violated the law; which existed to give people a limited time to control the distribution of their product. A person created something, and then other people are making money from that in some form. They are infringing on the rights of the person producing the music.

    So, that doesn't make it correct. Especially on the internet where any knuckled dragging buffoon can spread lies without recourse.

    "The GM crops were subsequently approved with no testing,"
    That is a straight up lie.

    "and no testing is required or even allowed to be performed on them."
    also not true. Here is a fact for you: GMO are tested far more then any other crop, because every other crop isn't tested at all. And Bacteria in the soil can cause genetic changes in crops that are undocumented, and effectively random.

    " we'll never really know since we're not allowed to perform the necessary testing."
    now you're just being stupid.
    Get the hell out of your echo chamber and learn some actual critical thinking skills and apply them, please.

    "This stuff is BAD news for humans."
    Millions and millions of people eat GMO every day, for decades with no ill effect. What do you base you assertion on?
