It isn't even a compromise when you won't even fight for what you say you will fight for, but instead throw little temper tantrums and noise while rolling over and doing nothing at all. "We're gonna lose so we aren't even gonna bother trying"
PP isn't a binary choice. That is the problem with liberals, is that they tend to put out binary choices. The thing about PP is that ObamaCare makes PP all but irrelevant for just about every woman's healthcare issue, the remaining issue is... Abortion. And since Abortion is a holy sacrament of the left, they (the left) make it about everything else (woman's healthcare, Evil Republicans... etc ).
The Republicans should pass the CR with everything but funding for PP, adding in funding for any Woman's HealthCare Community Center that isn't PP and make Obama shut the government down to save PP. They would win, Obama and the (D) would lose and Planned Parenthood would go the way of the Dodo.
If Government shut down, the only people who are immediately affected are government workers, and those that get government checks. Most of the rest of us, life goes on and we don't miss a thing. IMHO the whole "Governement" thing could be streamlined so we don't actually need much of it, and people would get along just fine, except for a few whiners out there crying foul because life itself isn't fair.
This isn't a Facebook Issue. This is a whiny self-centered wimpy fragile human, who should probably be put in a mental institution's padded cell, because obviously life is too hard for them.
And you are the exact reason why the country is falling apart. When confronted with "Obama did ______" that you don't like, you still blame only the Republicans. And don't get me wrong, the (R) do the exact same thing. It is almost like you have said (D) cannot do any wrong, and any wrong they do is because the (R) did it first.
The cognitive dissonance here is not surprising, but I am still amazed by it.
I keep saying this, but a small European Country having really good stats, isn't the same as the USA having mediocre stats. Have you seen the size of the US vs Europe?
It is a better option than being tossed into Jail for criminal actions (manslaughter, fraud...) you supposedly protested and did anyway.
I mean, if we're going to go all hypothetical and everything, why not make both choices "worst case scenarios" ?
The problem with people like you, you can justify all sorts of illegal, unethical, immoral or otherwise bad choices in life. And then you wonder how you keep getting the shit end of the stick.
It would be easy to establish a GUID within the cookie, that is only good for that cookie/site/session. Generating a fake cookie without the correct GUID for the session would require re-authentication. Easy Server Side fix.
You get fired now, or you implement something dubious - what do you choose?
You get fired. Then you sue for wrongful termination. Then you expose the company in court (public record) about how shitty they are threatening you with termination (you have proof? right?) for doing something dubious.
One thing I have learned is you always say "Can I get that in writing?". This alone stops a huge number of stupid decisions, especially when you're protesting.
Even if you have to write it... "Per our conversation regarding _______ I am doing _______ at your request. Please let me know if you change your mind". In civil court, all you need is 50+%. It doesn't take much to get to 50+%. Self documentation is perfectly acceptable.
(of a person) not identified by name; of unknown name.
Given enough resources, you can name anyone who does anything. Anonymity is only as good as the lack of resources allows. Therefore it is an illusion. It may be a practical illusion for many things, but it is still illusion. Same with Privacy.
I am fully aware that my actions are likely being monitored, at least partially, and that I am a known individual for enough things that my actions are neither private nor hidden (anonymous) for most things.
If Obama doesn't have control over the situation, then neither did Bush, and liberals should stop blaming GWB. The problem is, they want to blame everyone with an (R) behind their name, while absolving everyone with a (D). Party politics is poison to the brain.
The "original" Social Security law prohibited a SSN from being used for "identification" purposes and limited for taxation purposes only. They (government bureaucrats, politicians) either lied or were naive (your choice) when crafting that law. Plenty of people protested government issued ID number on the grounds that it would be used for ID.
I don't trust government. Things that were put into place with strong limits, gets watered down to the point where if it were promoted as it became, it would never have been.
As for ObamaCare, the SCOTUS ruled it a "tax" and thus Constitutional. So linking SSN to Healthcare is a done deal. Thank you to all the liberals who can't see the forest because of the tree. You all don't care about liberty as long as you get your "free" stuff from the "one percent"
He could have at least thrown in that he didn't believe the law was just, and simply followed the lead of the (R) and (D) parites in the US in ignoring the requirements.
It is about SCOTUS Legislating from the Bench It is about Executive Branch Overreach and Lack of upholding the laws on the books. It is about Legislative kicking cans down the street (not doing their job)
It is about dysfunctional and illegal Federal Government, starting with using the "commerce clause" to overrule the 10th Amendment.
It is about the powerlessness of the American people in the face of a growing tyrannical power run by the (D) and (R) parties for the (D) and (R) parties, of the (D) and (R) parties.

You probably think Bernie is a "moderate democrat".
The Constitution hasn't been enforced in a long time.

Extreme and moderate are subjective terms.
I may seem extreme for liberty, but when the alternative is the slippery slope towards tyranny, it isn't that extreme.
Meanwhile, plenty of people are willing to compromise liberty for security, not realizing they will get neither.

We hate our reality so much, that we'll spend thousands of hours in make believe land. And people wonder why we are doomed.
Shall we play a game?

However, since I don't have a list of countries that beat the US, my assumption is that at least some of them are european.

In the USA, at least in most of it, a jury award is not taxable income.

It has saved my bacon a number of times.
Let me know when you can operate at the quantum level. Mkay?

Tor is not anonymous
Anonymity is an illusion. Given enough resources, everything you do is traceable, back to you.

How about "I hate Bush for creating this mess, and Obama for continuing it on his watch"
He's had six years in power and hasn't done shit. So he is equal to Bush, no better, no worse.
It is about SCOTUS Legislating from the Bench
It is about Executive Branch Overreach and Lack of upholding the laws on the books.

Stop supporting the lessor of two evils .... Cthulhu all the way!
There is no 10th Amendment. "Commerce" clause overrules everything.
