Have you even looked at the cases the ACLU has fought? There's no attacking rights going on. They even supported Jerry Falwell, for fuck's sake. And that was AFTER Falwell said 9/11 was the ACLU's fault.
We should be ready to support those on the bottom end.
The poor spend a disproportionate amount of their income on food, so they benefit the most from lower prices due to automation.
Really? And these same poor who spend a disproportionate amount of money on food, how do they pay for better housing, education, safer streets? The use of automation requires a greater knowledge base to maintain those systems, which means higher prices for the poor. Thereby forcing the poor to become a perpetual debt slave to the banksters that created this mess to begin with in 1913, signed into law by Woodrow Wilson who should be (have been) tried for treason.
Patent trolls are EXTORTIONIST. They threaten you with a patent that you probably are NOT infringing on but the court fight to prove it will cost twice what they are asking to settle.
Easy to fix. Expose them and deny further patents, forever.
According to your article, oil was "discovered" in 1975. For an oil company to even drill an exploratory well, there has to be some assurance of the well producing. Athough the article states the time of discovery, it says nothing about when it was first understood that oil was there. It takes many weeks or months to set up an oil rig let alone where to drill. Taking seismic readings and interpreting them takes many more weeks. I knew about the oil while on Yankee station, not alot to read, but will read any and everything. I'm sure it was a magazine article.
The drug connection was more lucrative. Afghanistan, Turkey, the Golder Triangle are the main sources of opium and heroin, South America marijauna and cocaine, Central America and Mexico are the conduits for said drugs into the US via military and CIA flights. As to citations, no.
They de-regulated the banks and look what happeded, the same with airlines and oil. They also de-coupled precious metals from the currency. Jobs now go overseas, families go out on the street, and our youth go overseas to fight and die for company profits. Whom do YOU blame?
Trillions for wars/spying on the public. Billions for waging a "war on drugs" and the militarization of police forces. $16 million for energy research, something that would fix the economy and kick-start all sorts of amazing technologies.
As if the US was concerned about Vietnam when it escalated its presence during the 60's and 70's, while Americans died and are still dying, increasing drug trafficking into the US where more Americans died and are still dying, where corporate America found an easy way to make obscene untaxed profits to the extent that Americans are still fighting wars for profit and dying for their efforts, is this the US you mean?
Not really, thry're still in office and not in prison, they have their own non-Obabacare health plan for life, they're richer than sin considering their government paychecks, they have no term limits so they can continue this BS until they die with no legal repurcussions, how is that failure? If you mean watching out for their voters interests rather than the special interests, reducing pork barrel politics to zero, limiting terms to two, divesting themselves of Swiss and Vatican secret bank accounts, then yes, they have failed and failed miserably.
I cannot understand how a company can make such a mistake.
That's easy, have foreign investors put lots of money into the project, then use cheap labor, materials, construction practices, bought off politicians whose safety concerns have a dollar amount to keep quiet, ignore public opinion and bail out with huge profits before anything goes wrong.
You are better off going to college, amassing an enormous debt load, then competing with questionabe foreingners for a technical McJob that will allow you to pay down your student loan in 2 million years at 12 times the original amount? That sure sounds like bankster math to me.
Buckyballs, then Monsanto, DuPont, Bank of America, JP Morgan, nuclear power companies, grocers selling tainted food, lawyers who fail to protect their clients, Drone operators and manufacturers. The list goes on and on... hmm politicians?

Just redacted enough to make them useless.
Then redact the NSA!
Drown 'em in paperwork.
Hang 'em with hemp (rope).
Google yourself the term "Limited Hangout".
It was certain they'd do this, the same second that Snowden hit the wires.
Released hundreds, millions under wraps.

Jerry Falwell is God' fault.

Don't mention the war.
WAR!
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothin'
For all intents and purposes, in other words, perpetual.

If you were correct, why don't we actully get any oil from there? http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/wonkblog/wp/2013/01/19/where-the-u-s-gets-its-oil-imports-in-one-map/

1. Money is given in phases for each set of completed research goals.
Would that be in quarter moon phases?
Doesn't seem like a lot of money for tidal power.
Trillions for wars/spying on the public. Billions for waging a "war on drugs" and the militarization of police forces. $16 million for energy research, something that would fix the economy and kick-start all sorts of amazing technologies.
Don't forget zero money for zero energy.
And so on and so forth...
But can it be patented since it is essentially a perpetual motion device that every patent office official knows is impossible?
I presume you're being sarcastic, but Vietnam's leading export is crude oil.
Which is the "WHY" of the Vietnam war from its inception.

America: Corrupt and Inefficient in the 21st Century
Can you say DCMA? Can you say takedown? I knew you could.
With the ability to eradicate dissent with the NDAA and comercially (i.e. Halliburton) operated drones.
FTFY
Congress has quite clearly failed.
Not really, thry're still in office and not in prison, they have their own non-Obabacare health plan for life, they're richer than sin considering their government paychecks, they have no term limits so they can continue this BS until they die with no legal repurcussions, how is that failure?

Of course they are trolls. The definition of patent troll is clear cut:
a) Owns a patent
b) Didn't do the work personally
c) Doesn't make products using the patent.
d) Lives under a bridge
e) Eats billygoats
I cannot understand how a company can make such a mistake.

Yeah right, insane competition, those mad scientist types always get the cool stuff, the money and the chance to rule the world.

Talk about a gray moment here. For some reason, I thought the headline said Makes Mice 20% Cooler.
Not really a grey moment, only the rich and politically influential mice are 20% cooler and live 20% longer, the regular mice, not so much.
