Sure, you do get some loss but the simplicity and reliability of these system is quite impressive. I suppose they could always get extra-big pipe wrap:)
Taken over? All of private industry? Your hyperbole doesn't help. The Military-Industrial Complex snickers from 'round the corner. Shame Obama doesn't have the stones to cut military spending in these hard times.
I've been thinking about a charity that provides weapons, ammunition and range time to poor inner-city people. Let them have the weapons they need to protect themselves, their families and their property. You'd think the NRA would be all over that but they seem not to care.
McCain promised endless war and more financial deregulation while his running mate insulted the majority of the population who lives on the coasts and in cities.
Obama made some reaching promises and his running mate was a doofus.
So incredibly easy to choose between Crook A and Hopeful B.
Political Correctness is just a new version of Politeness. Those who make sad and angry noises about PC are just upset that their version of PC is out of style. Perhaps they were Emily Post fans.
We now frown on slurs and other degrading language where once that was celebrated. We now allow discussions of topics in public that were once forced by the Olde PC to be kept private to the determent of those who needed the topics aired.
When someone complains about 'PC' they're just complaining that THEIR version of right/wrong in public has been pushed out by the majority.
These states, full of right-wingers who decry 'wealth redistribution' rely on Federal Tax Money to exist. My state of CT gives alot in taxes, but the Fed only spends 60 cents on the dollar on us! Compare to the 'Red States' who receive far more Federal Tax Money then they contribute. See: http://www.taxfoundation.org/research/show/266.html
Location of the Pres is one thing, but over the last several decades, it has been the Red States that mooch off of the Blue States while their residents bitch about taxes. At least the Red States are the ones that provide cannon fodder for wars of choice, but that's a different discussion.
This isn't the first incarnation of a web interface to Domino backend servers either. That function (such as it was) was available for years. At least as far back as 2005. Now the 'rich text format' they used...ick!
We need PE because, if you haven't noticed, even young children in the USA are disgusting fat asses. It is unhealthy, it is costly to society, and it is a reflection on self control and self respect.
You don't have to use seatbelts if you drive your private conveyance on a private road. I too weep that my children won't know the joy of cheap high-octane gas made with lead.
...and the USA having the need to fulfill it's obligations to the UN, I see no reason our nation had to get involved.
Oh, the fear of encroaching communism perhaps. Or the uncertainty of what would happen if the the North beat the South. Or the doubt over whether such a conquest would significantly strengthen the USSR.
The reasons for pre-emptive wars are all the same and almost always found lacking.
I actually like SS and medic*. But I am pissed at the Dems for not pushing to cut back military spending, both at home and abroad. We can't afford to be the world police and if you look at Afghanistan and Iraq...we suck balls at it.
Or, we could close up all those expensive shit-stirring military bases, stop the failed wars (oh Korea and Vietnam, I wish we had learned from you..) and cancel social security, medicare and medicaid.
If a sane majority of Irish don't stand up and get this absurd law repealed, I'm going to have to dust off my "No Irish" sign! Once again, religion forces the sane to become self-hating;)

I suppose...my concern is security. But I'm just paranoid like that.

So it's less of a stretch to just ignore the militia phrase rather then re-think what militia means today?

and raped my mother!
I suspect there will be some really bad times before the ideal of an armed society being a polite society comes to pass.
Maybe I'm old and stuck in my ways, but having my important data stored somewhere else and not locally makes me jumpy and nervous.

Let's see some copyright reform that benefits the small guy. Until then, I remain civilly disobedient.
Guess I'll have to find something to do with my time other than playing games, listening to music or watching video.

Kurt was acting like a Kunt. And now the Internet knows how to find him.

If IBM loses this case, wouldn't that open up the door for requiring Apple to allow OSX to be installed on any compatible hardware?

You know, when we attacked a nation that had not attacked us.
Oh yes, our allies of convenience...heh.
No sale.

That's what we did and we go jack. The uber-wealthy continue to accelerate away from the rest of us and the middle class continues to shrink.
As long as politicians can take pay-offs from industry lobbyists without being hanged, this will never stop.
I'm left as the day is long but some times I want those right-wing guys to feed the tree of liberty. Shame they want to off Obama and embraced Bush :(

Reduce the tax rate but eliminate loopholes.

"Of course, times has changed and IBM started to hate end user desktop except consoles so they sold them out and moved to Intel."
Wat?
I thought Apple didn't like the cost estimates for a new processor and decided to go the cheaper route with commodity PC architecture hardware.
