  1. Re:Shutdown? on New High Tech $100 Bills Start To Circulate Today · · Score: 2

    If the government is supposed to be shut down, how could anyone release this money?

    The federal reserve is not part of the government, it never was, it never will be.

    The new $100 bill looks similar to the euro bill. Who knows, pretty soon all of our currency will look the same and eventually become one currency, and we all know what that will bring...

    It is the same, it's backed by nothing. The gold is gone, where's the gold? The silver is gone, where's the silver?

    Not true, I learned that the portal is as useful as a politician. Considering the failure to balance the budget, reining in of these arrogant bastards who declared war on the American people. Over time will one understand the uselessness of these politicians and their insurance industry written healthcare policies. These CONgressMEN are as bankrupt as the nation they supposedly lead.

  7. Re:ooook..?? on Monsanto Buys Climate Corp. Envisions Big Data Farming · · Score: 1

    The corporation doesn't act. It doesn't do anything. The people that comprise that corporation are the ones who act and who have the potential to commit harm.

    Of course it acts. When it sets government policy, like the Monsanto protection act, yes it was the politicians who voted it into law, however these same politicians do not have the capacity to write extensive pro corporate policy, they just introduce it. The politicians that vote for it are usually take bribes.. er ..uh donations from the very same corporation which has very deep pockets. Yes the corporation acts. It was corporations that got the Glass-Steagal act abolished. It was the actions of the banking corporations in de-regulating the banking industry and, oh, yes, ENRON. BTW, all legal procedings on the Enron debacle were in Building 7 of the World Trade Center, oh well.
    As for the faces of the corporation, good luck in exposing each and every one of them.

  12. Give me an update... on In Praise of Micromanagement · · Score: 1

    I prefer managers that are capable of allowing their subordinates to doing their job. A manager, IMHO, who has to be kept in the loop every step of the way indicates, to me, someone who has no confidence in themselves or their subordinates or is a total asshat to begin with and should not be a manager from the start.

    ah but you see

    Ah but you don't see, if an individual, living person causes harm to another, that said person faces punitive action. Such actions as law suits, indictments, prison and in the most extreme, death. How do you punish a corporation? Dissolution? No. Financial ruin? Only to the point of corporate solvency, in other words, no. Who goes to jail? The CEO? Possibly a witless stooge. The board of directors? Maybe, if it includes each and everyone of them, including silent partners and every red cent that can be traced to all of them. But what of the people and money that disappear at a moments notice when things get "dicey"?
    What if...the ultimate punishment is deserved, how is that meted? I have said before and I say again, the necessity of the separation of Corporate and State is as imperative as the separation of Church and State.
    When judicial punishment is warrented, a living being must be present. Shadowy, faceless, corporations that act with impunity do not cut it.

    Anyone who wins more than once at a casino is under suspicion. The odds are against you. Winning big once is luck, twice is cheating.

    Anybody who walks into a casino is under suspicion. The casino thinks everybody who walks into a casino is a sucker and rightly so. Someone once said "Of course the game is rigged, but you can't win if you don't play."
    Besides, the casinos are sanctioned by the government which doesn't like cheaters and theives, too much competion.
