Unfortunately though that's the cost of democracy, it means we don't get our way as a minority, even if we genuinely believe that what we believe makes more sense.
That's the failure of democracy and why it is unsuitable for proper governance. It is unacceptable to let 51% rule over the other 49. Dictatorship by the majority is no better than a dictatorship by an individual. It's merely less efficient.
They are the most profitable customers to help keep the price of coal from collapsing. All the demand from the little countries just doesn't add up. It doesn't make sense to support them.
...idiotic statements like this will just cause the ship to sink faster.
No, they will just throw him overboard, and the Good Ship Lollypop will continue on its merry way like nothing was ever amiss. Much worse has happened, and the Monarchy still stands, to this day.
How the bullshit flows so freely. Instead of condemning the temptress, people have to learn how to resist. Fuck the money. It is a non-issue. It is the voters who sell their votes for the bling and the false promises, hoping for a piece of the pie. They are the only ones to blame. They are the ones who reward corruption.
None of that matters one bit. It will change nothing, and democrats and republicans will continue to dominate. Not without the electorate's approval, of course. People were actually pissed about Watergate and Vietnam and the FBI, and it changed nothing then either. The "outrage" is nothing but farting into the wind.
Doesn't matter. Enough people supported it to reelect the man, instead of throwing out the lot of them. It's time for the voters to accept responsibility for the people they elect.

Both wiretaps and bugs have been [ab]used by the police to investigate many type of crime for decades.
There, you are very welcome...
"Religion" is content. I was talking about the medium.
We've had 'mind control' for over 90 years. It's called radio/TV...
In the battles amongst the great empires, geothermal holds no strategic value.
Nobody can get obscenely rich from renewable easy to produce energy, therefore it is not, nor will ever be practical.
By all means, let's drive it underground... and make it all classified..
Ah, so you subscribe to the Lee Iaccoca school of business.
"Hugh Pickens DOT Com writes..."
Can it be any more obvious?
NSA stands for National Security Asshole. You were correct the first time.
They don't have to hide anything. The voters are just as corrupt.

When you have a pi plugged into the wall...
The Apollo program did not have one party actively trying to sabotage it.
Ultimately it did. The last three moon missions were cancelled. Luckily Skylab kept it from being a total loss.
It's too bad that system wasn't trained on the charlatans on Wall Street so their crimes could have been accounted for and punished.
Think about that for a second......
It shouldn't be hard to understand now.
Unfortunately, the ideal utopia where people "learn to resist" doesn't seem to exist.
Rockets to the moon didn't exist before we came along and built one. Are you saying it's... impossible?

Fuck that! I have no such obligation

War is real mass murder. When do we get to hang the people who start and sustain them?

How will this stop the US from tapping into their cables?
