Which again, was Monsanto's doing. They were stopped from doing this outright, however, and somehow got farmers to agree to buy new seeds each year because... uh... y'know, I dunno why they agreed to it.
Funny, apparently some people think you have to sequence the genome before you can patent it. Which you don't have to, in pretty much any case. Just patent it now, then figure out what it does later. Standard practice, really.
Except the cats are the ones who are extra unruly, and possibly feral. Getting anonymous to collectively do anything is near impossible without actual results. You want them to stop? Get a law written with support from other politicians that fixes all of this. Then again, because that will literally never happen, you will never get them to stop their attacks. The heart of the problem is capitalism itself, and socialism still has a lot in common with capitalism. Even if this is all accomplished in Canada, it won't stop American anonymous, so I guess the only way to get them to do this is fix copyright law in Canada (fat chance) then use NAFTA and other trade agreements to somehow use Canada's IPs (do they have any) to get American law to change to something more reasonable (snowball's chance in hell) and then somehow make the RIAA and MPAA less bastardly (completely impossible).
Corn is probably the biggest example of bullshit monopolies in action ever. Monsanto has all the corn. All of it. And they try to get corn to be used in everything, even though it's a waste and irresponsible to have any industry depend on one crop, much less plastics and foodstuffs, which are huge industries in and of themselves. So no, corn is not awesome. Also, corn syrup is worse for you than cane sugar, but those idiotic attack ads against people that dare state that implies we're all idiots for even daring to THINK about how corn could be worse than sugar. Seriously, if you haven't seen those commercials, they go like this: Party 1: Corn syrup is bad for you! Party 2: Well how do you know that? Corn comes out of the ground, it MUST be natural! Party 1: Uh, I think I read it in a book... Party 2 then begs the question that things that come out of the ground it must be natural and therefore better, AGAIN, and then implies anyone against corn syrup is a retard. Seriously, go look it up. It's actually offensive.
No, the reason people don't want this is because we really don't want the idiot in the minivan in front of us that already can't use the ATM to take even longer.
How the hell do you measure how boneriffic a boner is? Seriously. And does the pie increase sex drive, or are we secretly all harboring a fetish for pie eating? Maybe the secret is men should have sex with pies from now on. I've never tried it, but I do know pumpkin pie is delicious. Or maybe pumpkin pie works for this purpose because it's generally given out during Thanksgiving, which is supposed to be a place of calm, and what not. Or, pie brings happiness. Does pie make you happy? It makes me happy. And does this mean that pies will begin to become prescribed as sex aids?
That Chertoff's company, Rapiscan Systems (no that's seriously the name, what the fuck, right?) is one of the two producers of this bullshit. The guy couldn't run national security at all and we're apparently STILL LETTING HIM DO IT. Protip: If given the chance, at least ONE American on board a flight will attempt to stop any possible terrorist. That bullshit that Bush yammered on about, "American Exceptionalism" (I forget if he called it that or if that's what his detractors called it) doesn't come from America itself, because our systems currently in place are pretty crappy. It does have an inkling of truth in it, though, in the form of the people. The same people whose rights are being trampled by this garbage. This will accomplish nothing, except set the precedence so they can do worse things. And to not only head off, but invoke Godwin's Law, the Nazis never could've even hoped for such willing corruption. We even tell people about torture, which they were unwilling to do. And what about what they're not telling us? I'm not saying the past is better. I'm just saying our current system is bad.
You don't have to be a judge to know when something is unreasonable. Waterboarding is unreasonable, because it's torture. Bailouts without prison sentences to CEOs that instantly go spend half the bailout on their workers that fucked up in the first place? Unreasonable too. It's common sense, and you don't need a commitee to tell you that. If we waited for judges to enact civil rights, Obama wouldn't even have been able to become president, much less win. It's generally the people themselves that dictate morality for the civil servants that actually have a sense of morality. Generally, the idea is the congress is supposed to represent the people, not their interest groups that fund their campaigns. And generally, none of this happens because they're all bastards and businessmen who don't care in the slightest.
No dog I've ever had in the family or known of has been able to open doors by using the handle, nor had a personality as strong as any of the cats we've had. Dogs can be social all they want, but they still act dumb, and I really don't think it's to fit in.
Actually, it would probably fall under it because credit identity is part of your rights. Originally, it was "Life, Liberty, and Property", not "Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness". Someone stealing your property is basically going against your rights, because the right to property doesn't mean you have the right to everyone's ELSE'S property.
If you need help, just ram your car into someone else! That way, THEY can get out of the car and call for help. Of course, if your car is too totaled to do this, you're doomed anyways. Too bad we don't have, say, basically a hospital bed on wheels, with traffic priority over other cars to get you to the hospital faster. It could even have some sort of easily remembered number so you could get a hold of them REALLY fast! But since you won't be able to call anyone because your phone is jammed, this would all be largely irrelevant when someone ran a red light and smashed straight into you. Hell, they probably would've done it if they COULD talk on their cell phone anyways. Bad drivers are always bad.
Wait a minute. What if he WANTED silly titles? Gasp! What if this whole thing was masterminded by HIM so he could have ridiculous titles like "International Man of Mystery"?!
Hmm, lemme think. Oh, right. NO. This cowardice is ridiculous. The sniveling charlatans who put on this one act play entitled "Security" are bad at this, and have no sense of right and wrong. Infringing upon rights granted by the constitution is never justifiable, and yet they've managed to do it anyways because people are so terrified of a grand total of around ten dudes. Seriously? We didn't make trucks illegal after a terrorist bombed the Alfred P Murrah Federal Building (a homegrown terrorist, no less!) and we didn't make mail illegal when someone sent bombs through the mail. Fear is not the correct response. Anger should be! How dare they try to cow the greatest country in the world into submission with a bunch of suicidal lunatics. We should've rebuilt the WTC, and built a taller tower next to them so they know what we think of them. We should've sent an overwhelming force to Afghanistan, and, for once, productively used the Military Industrial Complex to rebuild Afghanistan into a stronger, more secure, better educated, nation. We did none of these things because we let fear dominate our thoughts, and we are no more secure because of it. As Benjamin Franklin said, "He who would trade liberty for some temporary security, deserves neither liberty nor security. He who sacrifices freedom for security deserves neither."
You know, I almost think this could have been intentional, if it weren't so stupid. We're not even talking about the upcoming game because we're all talking about how dumb this is.
She should've got a cavity search, like everyone else. What makes her better than the rest of us, besides her silly title? And job description? And seeming authority on this sort of thing?
Damnit, it's my collection and you have to surf for yourself! Besides, if you make your own collection you don't end up with stuff you don't want. Also, when did they roll out these porn scanners? Is the TSA trying to cut down on wasted manhours by keeping their workers from having to surf for porn?

Please do not resort to ad hominem.
Is it bad I'd think we'd be better off with John?

It sounds like... OH BOY! It's the Godwin's Law train!

Oh, it started on October 7, 1996, and has just been getting steadily worse.
That's ridiculous. I enjoy making eye contact.

Libertarians don't want transparent and accountable government. They want NO government.

It's retroactive because in retrospect, he just wasn't that good in bed.

Is this why your population is going down?
To be fair, ethics goes out the door when you decide you want to do business.
