Do we have any realistic (effective) options to punish politicians for not keeping their promises?
And despite breaking their promises, they are frequently reelected by the same public. Why is everybody trying to pass the blame for their own failures? A mass movement needs to be consciously controlled if it is to be controlled at all. We shouldn't be talking violence before taking the very first step of accepting responsibility. So for now, even the feeblest effort to vote them out (including entire corrupt parties - democrat/republican, PRI/PAN, etc) might have the desired effect.
Don't know if it's the same in Canada, but in the states, ballot nominees are also determined by the voters during the primaries. And it's up to the voter to make sure they seek out and nominate the right lizard.. as opposed to waiting for FOX to present their endorsements to them. If we continue to refuse to take conscious control of our government and economy, we simply have no one else to blame...
I am a robot. The content of my job means nothing. It's the quality that counts. Ultimately I always set the conditions. So does everybody else. We all do what we consider "acceptable".
...maybe your business casual is a bit too casual?
What do you have against boxers and tank top? Personally, at the right price, I wear whatever they tell me. It's all acting. If the uniform is provided, that much better.
Kind of a neat way to maintain high public exposure, but can it be cheaper than regular advertising? Aside from the freebie here on the front page? Only their accountants know for sure.. I gotta admit.. the drama angle plays pretty good.. cliffhangers and everything.
Jane, you ignorant bitch. You have it backwards. Copyright is the privilege, not the right to view divulged information, knowledge, Britney,whatever.. AND... it's supposed to be a temporary privilege.. So it's the content "owners" who are attempting the grand larceny here.
Since when should a decent politician(oxymoron) be "provided"? It's the public's obligation to seek them out and "draft" them into service.. and I mean SERVICE.. not a career. Our political/economic system is our own cross to bear. Do not look beyond your own nose for any misfortunes you suffer from it.
Nice argument.. provided we don't single out the Chinese. The Americans still hold more people in it's prisons. And when are we going to stop buying Saudi oil? Sugar and oranges from Brasil? Afghani opium? Colombian coke? Boycotting the last two could entirely bankrupt the war machine.
Well, if you want someone to blame, blame US corporations...go look to the Americans whose insatiable desire for cheap mass-produced goods has fed their gluttony

Republican: A Democrat with money
The ones to ask that would be the folks who are waiting in line at the entrance of a sold out U2 concert..
Just sayin' :-)

And bootlegging accounts for the other 96%..
Online banking, and any other encrypted communication should be private by default.
Well the thing is that it isn't. You can trust that it is private, but you will never know

But please, do continue to show what a fucking retard you are.
Ah yes.. most insightful, definitely livens things up.. just like the good ol' AOL days :)

The sad thing is the alternatives aren't much better.
Then I would suggest voting for better alternatives.

People will trade information on technologies, how-to information, plans, and parts to make sophisticated products in their home or workshop.
Yeah well, don't be so optimistic. You can bet there are certain groups who will always be out to nip that kind of thing at the bud.
Copyright used as a censorship tool.. Gee! Who'd a thunk?
Uh oh...
This oughta keep all our psychic friends happy..
Good thing he's not in the states or Britain. I hope he doesn't plan on visiting or get extradited to either.
To anyone who says there's a difference, I want proof.
And they use mail hooks to pick up new ones?

Say whaaat? Make up your mind! Which is it?
All "books" come with disappearing ink.
Expect them to paint the windows over, and then you'll watch some cheap facsimile of some scenery on the monitor.. for a small fee of course
Playboy? Articles? Hell, 80% of the people here doesn't read Slashdot for the articles. The other 20% is lying.
Block the ads, and you can probably get away with 300 baud..
I wouldn't want a house battery I'd have to replace every few years.
It's very difficult to sustain an economy if durable goods are actually durable.
