I'm not really making an argument one way or the other. My opinion means nothing. The voters are okay with it, not me. And the Nuremberg Defense is very selectively applied, by a democratic voting process it seems, or a committee, in the same fashion they decide who's a terrorist
Ho ho! You think weapons are the issue... Ya hopin' the Banque Chaabi du Maroc will like, just hand you a key to the vault? Otherwise you're gonna have to sell lots of damn good, errr, 'whiskey', yeah, that's it..
Um, even the American "revolution" was a bit of a proxy war. The relationship with France runs pretty deep. All these wars involve outside influence, most of it over business interests and disputes. Underneath it all is an argument over the price.
TPP is just a formality, a consolidation of established parties, kind of a "peace" treaty amongst the five families.
There's enough taxpayer money and weaponry (including the wetware to operate them) going to Qatar, UAE, Saudi Arabia, etc to keep them afloat. Russia is the target of the oil dumping schemes and continued agitation of the locals.
Al Jazeera, and RT, please... mouthpieces all, just like the Times, BBC, etc. They say what their sponsor tell them to say. I wouldn't miss any one of them.
It is lack of access to * the means of production*. Gee, where have I heard that before? But in this context it is true. And since it won't be given to us, we have to create our own. Uh oh... there's that 3D printing nonsense again. But... it is the only way to "democratize" things.
Yeah, but maybe they would prefer to save a penny or two in not having to chase down 'violators'. Eh, who cares? As long as the blockage can be circumvented it's all good.
When discussing salaries, negotiate the net, not gross. The only thing that matters is what you take home. The rest is company business, irrelevant to our needs.

Yeah, only now we spend 90% of our energy trying to prevent it... Oy, the bureaucrats' burden is a heavy one.
Oh please! Just say it! Cultural purity and political/religious/economic supremacy.
That it would be a easy trip to California?
La cucaracha, la cucaracha...

Well, I think you oughta do it on Thanksgiving Day... You gotta sing loud...

Gimme back my bullets...
:-) You just couldn't accept your prize quietly, eh?
:-) You win the internet...But just for shits and giggles, reread your post I initially responded to.
For your convenience
I won't take it personal, it's just a thing, you know?

In all those cases, the opposition was heavily armed and financed and sometimes manned by outsiders.
I have to ask, what is your point?
And unless the TPP bumps into similar cost/benefit ratios, it will be smooth sailing to passage.

The problem is that the population just does not care enough to bother.
Hey, The lights are on, the toilet flushes, the garbage is picked up. Thanks Obama!
Merely responding to your post.... Maybe you should take your own advice there?
Not really. The company just pays off the government to do its dirty work. Why else would it be made illegal? The government is performing a service.
Hydrogen is not an inert element..

On the Phoneblocks site linked from yours:
We believe that all our electronics should be built like this, modular. With one universal platform for the whole world....
*Ahem* Do you really want this?

why the hell doesnt google bake this into the damn os?
Because Google is an advertising company, and denying access to their partners would be like cutting their nose off.
Since I remember numbers better than names, I say lets abolish naming your kid, and just buy him/her a SIM card.

Meaning, guilt by association. Yeah, that should work....
All that paranoia, and without drugs?
I mean, cameras are obviously much more dangerous than guns.
Wait a minute... A password "manager"? On your computer? Attached to the internet??
Ohhh, Muurrrrder! I mean, who cares if it's written in Emacs, or straight up binary?
Guess you haven't heard. The customers will directly "bail out" the banks now. It's all covered.
