The upside of Endless War is that the more gullible of our rural tax-consuming citizens will offer their lives to a government that doesn't care about them.
The downside is the cost, death and destruction.
But given the 'salt of the earth' I've been hearing at McCain/Palin rallies...which is the lesser of the two weevils?
The very first line of your post was an attack on a person. Therefore, I have no need to offer you any more respect than you gave the person you were replying to.
Quite funny that it's OK for you to attack the person, but it's not OK for me to do the same.
I am an American, making a very healthy income taking advantage of the ignorance of the god-believing imbeciles who pollute my great land with their backwards natures.
Besides, citizenship in any nation is a business relationship. I don't get all butthurt when someone insults my choice of OS or automobile.
It's the principle. I don't like my equipment being empowered to stop me from using it's features because it 'thinks' I'm infringing on someone's copyright.
Maybe I'm a minority, but as guy with over 300 DVDs...they'd love to have me as a customer.
Barak isn't some common man, and nobody is claiming that except strawmen constructed by the flailing rightists.
It's not like Barack failed utterly at his job, and after 5.5 years of dealing with that failure, returned to divorce his loyal wife and marry a young woman.
That goes more to character than any amount of wealth.
I don't. They tend to be old, out of touch with modern technology. I think enough BS by CC lawyers would confound them and justice would not be served.
You get your morality from your parents, not everybody traces their roots back to ancient Greeze and people tend to pick and choose their morals. See: religion.
'Cause the shrinking middle class is tired of seeing our funds be sucked up by other Americans because they had the money and connections to rip us off.
I can't abide using food crops to move my vehicle. If I could use a still to create ethanol from lawn clippings, pine needles and brush...then I'd be down.
Like when you shop at WalMart. You get cheaper goods, but you also encourage CEOs to shift more and more jobs to cheaper over-seas nations. Less job opportunities, less wealth in the nation to pay for specialized services, etc.
You gotta look past your wallet to see how your choices can cost you. Giving money to a 'find the missing baby' charity is not cost effective.
Slashdot Mirror
The USA's bullying foreign policy has resulted in huge deficits from Offense Spending. I don't want my kids to have to deal with MY problem.
Unlike the whiners and non-competatives, I WANT to pay more. I WANT to pay down the debt. It's the responsible, non-selfish, thing to do.
I think I'll opt for the insurance policy. Way easier and less labor intensive.

Yeah, consider how GDP rose and consider WHO gets the entitlements....poor white trash who vote Republican and hate on Liberals.
Federal income tax redistributes funds from productive bluestates and hands them out as gifts to the loser redstates.
The redstates seem ignorant of this fact, as they are of many facts.
Broad Brush!
You gotta sleep sometime you know. You are lucky.
Cut the military budget in half. Arrogant white trash who like their country being the 'world police' will get over it eventually.
I want my own giant tortoise for a pet!

The original animated one is special, it was true to the characters of the TV shows and the models of the toys.
The new movie? It's a fucking car commercial.

I refused to buy them.
Responding to hyperbole with pedantry. Then again, this is slashdot, home of the clueless gripper.
And owning what,m 7 houses and 13 vehicles?

You should have done your research on new technology before buying in.
Sucker!
(Careful with that troll, it's an antique!)
I chose to live in a flood plain! WAH!
With all the Federal money they'll get to help recover I think those folks will be just fine if I keep my money. I mean, they had a warning.
Keep trying to change the system through demonstration and voting. If things get bad enough, time for a killing spree.
I don't. They tend to be old, out of touch with modern technology. I think enough BS by CC lawyers would confound them and justice would not be served.
But I'm told I'm a cynic :)

Food and gas goes up, who gets richer?
Morality is just the frozen ethics of a long-dead half-savage civilization. Ethics is alive.
I can't abide using food crops to move my vehicle. If I could use a still to create ethanol from lawn clippings, pine needles and brush...then I'd be down.
Whenever I saw those damn "If you smoke pot, you're supporting terrorist" all I could think about was the distasteful regimes we buy our oil from.
Well said.
