Depending on what your political viewpoint is, they may indeed look the same to you. For example, if you were a libertarian, or constitutionalist, they both would look the same. Probably true for a marxist or green too.
I listened in on the Arizona senate debate yesterday, and the libertarian cannidate kept on pointing out how both the D guy and the R guy were basically saying that they were for the status quo. For the presidential election, I don't see any of these guys proposing world changing ideas. Heck the 5 point plans from their stump speaches are the same on 4 out of the 5 points (http://www.npr.org/2012/10/03/162246644/romney-obama-have-parallel-points-on-the-economy) and advocate the same foreign policy.
One of the reasons the Post office is losing money is that they have to fund their employee's health benefits for 75 years in advance. That is to say, it has to fund employee benefits for employees that haven't even been hired yet. Its an artificial crisis created by congress.
Given that the number of military veterans in the USA outnumber our current military strength 10-1, it is certainly possible that the US military would have some difficulty. That being said, the number of people who have served or currently serve in combat arms is rather small.
I thought they opened plants here to get around import limits due to Voluntary Export Restraints negotiated in the 1980s? Wasn't that one of the reasons that infiniti, acura, and lexus were created?
You should see what VW, Ford, Toyota, and GM sell overseas for pickups. think 40mpg trucks (I'm not joking) 90% of the size of a f150 with 4/5cyl diesel engines. They make 150-200hp, but up to 350ft/lbs. Check out the global market ford ranger. Ford is worried that it would cannabilize f-150 sales. You have the GMC canyon, Hilux etc.
In general, women tend to prefer men who are of higher status than themselves and there is some social stigma to "marrying down".. Men don't seem to have that preference, nor stigma, in the aggregate. As women's and men's incomes fall in line with one another, women tend to become more choosey, chasing after a shrinking pool of high status men, or so the male based blogosphere would have you believe.
If you go by what the Washingtonpost has been saying, the Obama administration hasn't been quite as forthcoming on the story. It appears that the attack on the consulate was not spontaneous, and that within the administration, there has been charges of it being a "terrorist" incident. Sure, given previous stories where there was a representation of Mohammed the Arab street has expressed outrage, so the entire story seems plausible at the time, but as more info leaks out, it seems less so.
Most of the media has been giving Obama a pass on the story, nor has Romney latched on either..
Thats one of the things people seem to forget, that culture plays a signifigant part in learning outcomes. Plus the american educational system isn't really all that well set up to provide situations which develop independent thinking and problem solving ability.
Teachers should come from experienced professionals, not straight out of college. As such, an education system should try to be courting the 50+ cohort who are looking to get out of engineering and the sciences, and pay them accordingly. It will upset the unions since education is more about jobs, than about the kids.
I remember a teacher i had in high school which showed a ring with fascism on one side, socialism on the other, with the words authoritarianism at the top of the ring. The point being that at both extremes of the standard political ideologies have very similar characteristics.
My inlaws are visting from outside the US and don't have US health insurance. We have had various routine visits as well as x-rays and prescription medication. It was surprisingly affordable, Doctors visits were $40, x-rays were $80, anti-biotics were under $10. I expected it to be very pricy.
Now I think catastrophic care would have been another story, but routine was surprisingly cheap. It may make sense then to pay for routine care out of pocket, and merely get catastrophic coverage.
Delta is a common carrier, that means they can not discriminate with respect to their clients. Pilots can remove passengers if they are a security concern, but that may be considered questionable for this fact pattern.
True, yet as a common carrier they have specific rules they must follow to maintain common carrier status. The issue here is their common carrier obligations versus the captains discretion for removing a threat.
The vast majority of discretionary spending is on the military, but that isn't true of it overall. Plus it has dropped overall over the past 40 years as entitlement spending went up.
I'm not arguing pro/status quo for military spending.
Yep, the Washington Post's version lacked the details you mentioned and any discussion that you have to ship firearms to a gun store or FFL holder. To be fair, WAMU failed to mention the FFL part as well. I think it speaks volumes to the amount of detail left out in stories either due to shrinking newsrooms, or rush to report rather than trying to sell a story by omission. Its a simple case why people should get their news from multiple sources.
NPR reported that the label under this guys address is for a gun store in PA. This is really poor reporting. The washington post version lacks this detail as well, as well as any reporting that you can't ship firearms to a persons home unless they have a FFL.
It was, NPR reported that his address label was stuck on top of one for the gun shop it was intended to go to. Pretty much every one of the articles on this story also neglects to state that you can't have firearms shipped to your house unless you have an FFL.. You have to go pick it up at a gun store and go through a background check.
Anyone have an analysis offhand, that takes into account NAFTA/exporting jobs to china in conjunction with the idea of trickle down economics? My gut, and probably unfounded reaction, is that there are multiple factors to stagnant wage growth.
Move to virginia. We have Dominion Power, which never has the issues MD/DC have with Pepco lower taxes too. On the downside, there is no Jamba Juice or Bolocco in Northern Virginia.
Who will be buying all the goods when machines make them extremely cheap? The "rich" aren't going to be buying themselves millions and millions of cheap consumer goods or automobiles.
I would imagine in such an environment the economic system would have to change.

How does buddism figure into that

I'm not defending how the post office is run, just saying there are other issues on its balance sheet.

Go do more east coast recruiting. I have a hard time believing that RPI, CMU, Cornell, grads are programming chumps.

Why doesn't samsung just have the USPTO do a re-exam of the patent, its cheap and would possibly invalidate the patent.

There is a difference between design and utility patents.
Utility are articles of manufacture, apparatuses, processes, methods, computer readable mediums.
Designs, are, well, designs.
