  4. Every sector involved on Canadian Millennials Struggle As College Degrees Don't Guarantee Jobs (www.cbc.ca) · · Score: 1

    The only way to offer some confidence to students is simply the enforcement of practice at companies or startups incubation, guided by the educational institution. Government and companies should develop a program where everybody wins.

  6. Re:Time to do something on Canadian Millennials Struggle As College Degrees Don't Guarantee Jobs (www.cbc.ca) · · Score: 0

    The problem is the new generations don't care, because they think "There should be an app for that...."

  7. Well....if you want to sell DVDs at $20, probably nobody will buy them. If there is no demand, lower the price. The main cost of DVDs are marketing and transportation, so sell volume.... make a limited offer of 10 new DVD titles for $20 with free shipping and let's see how the market will react. Offer cheap digital copies and kill piracy without lawyers in the middle (the main cost)

  8. balance de CO2 budget on CO2 Researchers Are Now Hacking Photosynthesis (chicagotribune.com) · · Score: 1

    Why simply the govt doesn't enforce the capture of CO2 to the companies which profit from selling CO2 emitting products?...maybe the govt IS formed by those companies.....silly me.....

  9. Stats anyone? on Alibaba Breaks Records, Sells $17.7 Billion on Singles' Day (techinasia.com) · · Score: 1

  10. Time to join WA, OR and CA to Canada? on Silicon Valley Investors Call For California To Secede From the US After Trump Win (theguardian.com) · · Score: 1

    It looks like people in WA, OR and CA has more similarities with canadians than the rest of the US.... just sayin'....

  11. It's just capitalism.... on HP Hit With Age-Discrimination Suit Claiming Old Workers Purged (mercurynews.com) · · Score: 1

    Get as much juice as you can from an orange....once the juice starts to fade, trash it and get a new one.

  12. In the west, that's called TV on China Fakes 488 Million Social Media Posts a Year To Deceive Its Citizens (bloomberg.com) · · Score: 1

    At least money goes to the people and not to the managers.

    The copyright concept has to be reviewed. The only problem is, people with the power to do it receive some bonus to keep ignoring it.

    1. Locate the cheapest controllable labor force in the planet. 2. Make some "expensive" thing. 3. Sell it at the same price as before.

  19. What was the expectation? on Zuckerberg's $100 Million Education Gift Solved Little · · Score: 1

    Well..if you give free money to managers, they will solve their issues....new yatch, new sports car, new house, 5* vacations.... of course, it will look as "work" from the accountability perspective....big invoices from consulting companies, fake construction, availability studies, etc.....just a bunch of paper. There is nothing more tempting to "administer" other's monies.... look at the Govt!...

  20. I don't see any upgrade program in place... on EA Ending Online Support For Dozens of Games · · Score: 1

    Any "reasonable priced" upgrade program for original discs? That would be good. If you have paid $60 for a BF2, and BF4 is again $60, they should allow discs owners to upgrade for no more than $15. I would like to be a fan of game companies again....but they are doing exactly the opposite for a couple of bucks.

  21. Scientology wins! on Google Aids Scientology-Linked Group CCHR With Pay-Per-Click Ads · · Score: 4, Funny

    If there were a race about which "religion" is getting more members with the most insane ideas, yep, they would take the 1st place!... In your face, resurrected Jesus.

  22. same everywhere.... on Russia Writes Off 90 Percent of North Korea Debt · · Score: 1

    When an institution receives money, it vanishes through "operationa costs" and at the end, we should consider ourselves lucky if 10% is really used for the real purpose. Doesn't matter the -ism .... without full transparency, money ends in the administrator's pockets. Every govt office should have the obligation to have open and free access books, so we, the people, can understand why they are spending more and doing less.

  23. Cuba? on Cuba: US Using New Weapon Against Us -- Spam · · Score: 2

    Still with that? Obviously big fishes are pocketing tons of taxpayers money with this scam.....and those guys will never cut the flow, on both sides of the story. Reality is, no govt really cares about the people.

  24. Main goal on Accenture Faces Mid-March Healthcare.gov Deadline Or 'Disaster' · · Score: 1

    The MAIN GOAL of these big companies is to suck money. The "collateral goal" is to provide the "official offered solution". Having presence in several countries, they simply give foreign "gifts" when contracts are approved.

  25. Countries are protected markets... on YouTube Co-founder Calls For Global Access To TV Online · · Score: 1

    And politicians get a chunk of it... So, nobody with the right controls in a country would like to allow people (consumers) watch how cheap things are in another place.
