If God role less relevant, why is the world getting so much worst off? I think the world is so bad off right now because of the decrease of faith in God.
Remember, start off by believing the earth is not flat and the sun (and everything else) does NOT go around the earth.
The catholics church tought that junk. If you didn't know, they didn't allow their following to read the Bible. When the King James release the first english translation of the Bible, the church told their fellow not to read it. The only problem
Have you noticed that as physicists gain more knowledge about the universe they always end up supporting what is written in the Bible ?
For example, Genesis 1:3 reads, "And God said, Let there be light: and there was light." The Bibles says right there that God make a sound which created light and caused the universe to take form. If you read between the lines, John Cramer is saying the same thing!!
But this is a bunch of more fucking useless bullshit--par for the course for this Administration.
You're blaming the Bush Administration for a do nothing bill that the Senate passed?! The bill hasn't even passed the house, but yet you're blaming "this Administration"?? WHY?!
You always lose something when you skimp on your infrastructure to save a few bucks.
Yep!! Like the support desk number! The power edge crashed. First time ever. Do you have Dell support number??? If it was the E-450 or E10-K, I would hit *2 on the speed dialer.
This was a transfer from Switzerland to California. That 7000Km or about 4300 miles. If you loaded a truck with dvd going 60 mph (this is a magic truck that can float on water with a top speed of only go 60mph and does not stop for fuel, bath room breaks, sleep, or heards of cattle) it would take 71.6 hours, or 257,760 seconds. At that rate it would take 38,833 DVD's to equal the amount of time that could be transfered. But how large is 38,833 DVD's? I don't have a DVD to measure and I'm too lazy to look it up, so I'll guess 5*8*1/2 inches, or 20 cubic inches. So that makes it about 750,000 cubic inches.
Ok so how big is a truck? The largest trailer on US highways are 100x110x636 inches, or about 7,000,000 cubic inches, 4,050 cubic foot. That's mean the 53 foot long trailer can hold about 350,000 DVD's, or is 9.3 times faster then the super fast internet connection.
But we haven't covered air lifting DVD's! A 747-400 a 25,952 cubic foot cargo hold and can get to Cali in 11 hours. That's 2,250,000 million DVD'S at a rate of 57 DVD's a second!! That means sending DVD's by 747's it's 400 times faster then the faster internet connection!!
Clearly this is about sending digtal information, not sending DVD's.
The tax would be payable on the actual cost of operating and maintaining the system, which DOR defines as including the following:
Are they out of thier minds?!!? Or just trying to kill businesses' abilty to maked a buck?! The DOR are purposing taxing at 9% the total cost of the follow expenses: the value of the hardware, the value of the lease, the cost of repair, the cost to house the equipment, the tools used to maintain the system, the cost of the power bill, the cost of the bandwidth, even the employee salaries and thier benefits!!
I imagined myself reading that for the first time knowing little or nothing about the case or the GPL and realizing that the lawyer sounded quite reasonable from that point of view.
The last time I check, that is exactly what lawyer are paid to do; sound reasonable and make a solid case. However, if the facts aren't there to support their argument, it won't matter how reasonable they sound.
Cutting edge sciences has determined that the brain waves of all living things are transmitted in what is known as the "zero point field". Go to here for more.
People such as yourself believe that all we know about now is all that can exist and what isn't here now can never exist. If we changed the year to 1502AD and someone said "we have has invented a rocket to go to moon." I'm guessing, based on your statements, that if you were in the year 1502AD, you would call it ludicrous, fantasy, preposterous, or someone's wet dream. Do you see my point?
I predict in twenty years the thought patterns of people will be like tuning into a radio. I wouldn't be surpised if the goverment already has this techinogly. The government has top secert project that are so advance that it's 30 to 40 even 50 year a head of our time. Best example? Lasers which were in use in 1950 but didn't become wide known to the public until the late 70's.
Let's get back on subject, the Russians developed and used mind control devices during the cold war and used those devices on their own people. There are KGB record of this. The airforce had a project in the early 80's for "remote seeing" that was cancled not because it was failure, but because it was too successful. I could go on and on about this if needed. Here's my last statement on this, we don't know much about the mind. To say something isn't possiable with the mind is what is truely ludicrous, fantasy, and preposterous.
Have a good day.

First, there are private programs to assist homeless to get to work. You don't take a homeless person and send him right into college. No, you get them a place to live and a place to work. Then as they progress, they are able to live on their own and make a free choice if they want to go to school. But guess what?! They wouldn't be homeless if they wanted to work!!!
Second, what would happen if US companies that use third world countries would do if they were forced to pay those people $5.25 an hour US? Well, 1) the company would close shop and move back home. 2) Those countries would be completely broke beause there would be no money coming to them. You're forgetting one thing buddy. Trade IS opportunity for advancement. You take away that trade, you disolve all hope of any opportunity for advancement. Sure, it's not pretty, either was America in the late 1800's. The fact is you'll get NO where without a bit of pain. That is the nature of advancement.
I find it very hard to believe anyone make $200k a year is exploting anyone. The fact is the people they are "exploiting" have made the choice to be there. They have not taken the opportunity to demand higher pay. Since I was someone that was being "explotied", I took the step to get out it. Why haven't other people? It boils down to one thing, they don't think they can. It's a mind set that point them were they are and it keps them there.
"What do you think would happen, if by some freak of nature and society, EVERYONE got a full college education, including a masters degree? Who'd work the shit jobs?"
Easy, the people still working towards the full college education. Those are the only people that should be working for minimum wage anyways. That doesn't pokes a hole in my idea, but supports it. OH! You're going tax the hell out of the rich and give everyone a free ride through school!! How stilly of me!! We all know how well that works.
What you were trying to do was insert the idea that you can become rich by legal means. That you must be some evil person to have tons of money. That is simply not true. What's the best way to make money? Reestate!! Rental homes. You want to make tons of money, buy rentals. What's illegal in that?
Most Americans still have the goal to be rich one day and understand the fact it's only fair that everyone pays the same tax precent on the dollar. It's the fact that people vote in hordes because of the promise of a free tax ride that taxes are be shifted to the rich. Do you know the top 10% of income earners in the US pays 90% of ALL taxes? Is that fair? Fairness would be a flat tax and smaller Government.
I give back to my fellow man everyday freely. I only have a problem when Government forces me to give against my will at gun point to buy votes for the poor. And that is what it's all about.
Ok first, on your pervious post you said the redistrobution of wealth is not stealing, but provide no other statement to back it up. So provide to me that taking my money and giving to a poor bum isn't stealing from me?
Second, taking money from me and give to the poor provide what for me? How does this better my life? It simply doesn't. What you are doing is punshing my success and rewarding their failure.
I make somewhere in the 70k-90k range. I don't have a maid. I live in a large house. I have bills like everyone else, but I don't worry to much about them. I drive a car made this year. And yes, I have a six month easter egg. I not rich, I'm good. I had to work my ass for many years to get to this point. And I intend to work my ass off to get to the next level where I can have that large house and the maid. And damn it, it I work to get here, I should keep what I earn.
Right now I pay enough taxes for my seven dead beats friends to not pay a single bit of income taxes. They did not finsh school, have not study for a job, have not worked as hard as me, has not made the good choices I have made, nor have the will power to get off their bum to do something about it. But it's ok for you to take money from me to give to these people? Why? Oh, they are starving, they drive shitty cars, they live in crappy homes. Guess what? SO DID I!!! I grew up poor, went to a crappy school, lived on the streets for a year, drove a crappy car, but guess what? I got off my ass and did something about my life. I didn't need government to help me. I didn't need their tax breaks. I did not need anything but the will power to get off my ass and do something about it.
You want to speak of the rest of the world? How about this, the rest of the world does not enjoy the economical freedom America enjoy. Their government tax the shit out them, regurlate their production, control their resounces, and forces high tax on imports to increase production localy. Look, you want to have a rich country? Let the people be free. Look at the facts, the freest country in the world are the riches. You take away that freedom to keep what people produce and earn, the country is poor. Prove me wrong that a free country is not rich. Freedom includes fair taxes for the rich and poor.
Here's my look at giving things to the poor. If you reward a dog for crapping on the carpet, will he ever shit outdoors? If you give a kid a dollar everytime he bashes a mailbox, will he ever stop? If you give a poor person money for being a bum, will he ever go to school to get a job? If you reward a action, you will get more of it. Allowing the poor to live as a bum without a job is rewarding their way of life. We already provide school, college funding, job training, transportain, along with many other things. We do not need to take money from the produces to give to the bums in a way to thus rewarding the fact they are poor!!
Here's the simple truth, the people that are poor in America are that way because they made bad choices. Anyone can go to school here. Anyone can get a job. People only have to do five things to succeed:
1) Stay in school 2) Get and keep a job 3) Stay away from drugs 4) Only have kids you can afford. 5) Abide the law
It's just that simple.
What? Am I entitled to extravagent opulence at the cost of the lives of my fellow humans, at the cost of global suffering? What the fuck!! My dollars give those people JOBS. Without me buying products from them, they would have NOTHING. They would be beggers waiting for hands out. I can not help the fact that the country that they live in do not have the resouces to train these people for highing pay jobs, but by me buying products from them, I'm giving the chance to work towards a better life. That is how trade works.
Do I want to live in a world where the only moral right is get whatever you can without breaking the law? Who the hell said anything about breaking laws? To produce and keep the profit is a freedom entitled to me. By doing so does not break a law. I believe those who break the laws, should be punish. Those who abid by the law, should be rewarded.
Are you selfish? HA!! How much time and money have you give a way? I give homeless people money FREELY. I donate my time FREELY. I donate money to churches and other things I believe in all with FREEWILL. Why do you think that I wish to keep what is mine I'm selfish.
Greedy? Alright. What do I need to live? A hut, grain, and water. Anything more then that could be consider excessive. But do I deserve what I earn? Do I deserve to make the money I make? Let's see here, I currently put in 40-50 hours a week of mind numbing work. I have ever worked 100 hours week. I study for a year and I must keep study to keep my skill up. I have to be friendly to people I don't like. I work hard to keep what I have. I have made good choices. I abide the law. Do I deserve what I have? YOU BETTER BET YOU ASS I DESERVE WHAT I HAVE!!!
You must be talking about the people that just got off the boat, couldn't speak english, and would work for pennies in the late 1800's. What's my answer to that? We have schools, so go there and have the will power to say no to shitty pay.
The corruption of Rome started when the people learned that they could plunder with the voting booth. They shifted their morality of stealing to unmoral leaders to steal from other to give back to the people who voted for them. The people who they elected lacked moral because who would steal but those who have no morals? Thus, these unmoral stealing leaders lead to other corrupt in Rome. The corrupt grew to the army which weaken it. This allowed other armies to walk into Rome with little fighting.
Today, Americans are learning that they can plunder by using the voting booth. They plunder by demanding highest taxes on those with more. Please, if nothing else, understand that statement.
Redistribution of wealth is pundering, stealing, and looting all rolled into one. That is not your money!! That is someone else money that they EARNED!! The work for it!! The people receiving the money did not EARN it. You're taking money from one group, the people that earned, to people that are sowing in the fact LIFE IS HARD. How can you say it's not stealing?!?
The cost of Government to protect me, everyone else, copywrite can be cover by duties taxes currently placed on imports. It's when you start throwing these "redistribution of wealth" vote buying programs does the cost rise. And why do Government love these programs? Becuase the poor people love to get money for free and saps like you gets this warm cozzy feeling because you're not the one paying 40% in income taxes!!! You're not the one that work his butt off to go through school to get the job or start the buniess to earn more then 120k a year.
Do you study histroy? Why did Rome fall? Becuase the got lazy and put the burden on the people that produced the goods they relaied upon. What do rich people produce every single time their spend money? Jobs, that's what. take the rich folks money, you're taking your job away in the end. If you can't see that, you are truely blind.
If it's not a God given right, what's the whole deal about stealing? Is not stealing taking that which is not your from another? Let's see:
steal (stl) v, - To take the property of another without right or permission.
Thus, to have something which is yours is a God given right to have that property. To demand their property at gun point unequal to every other people in relation to what they have (make the rich pay more in taxes) is to steal, plunder, pillage, rifle, sack, loot, ransack, spoil, spoliate, despoil, strip, sweep, gut, forage, levy blackmail, pirate, pickeer, maraud, lift cattle, poach, badger, hold up, stick up, bunco, bunko, filibuster, swindle, peculate, embezzle, sponge, mulct, rook, bilk, pluck, pigeon, fleece, defraud, and obtaining under false pretenses.
Basicly everytime you demand property by higher taxes on those with more, demand that produces give their product without trade, you are being a thief. Plain in simple. Prove me wrong.
What you showed here is a lack of morals, not greed. A person that would kill a kid for two bucks, would rape a woman for a three, rob cars for four, or knock off your ex-girlfriend for five. The horriable thing is the total lack of morals shown by the people that and loot from people that earned money (taxes), grow crops, produce goods, or thought of the ideas we love so much. These producers have spent their time to produce and has the freedom to produce as much they wish. They have the right to keep what the earned and do what they wish with it. They have a God given right to keep their earnings, and you DO NOT have the right to loot, plunder, or demand their earnings or what the produce. That is stealing.
In America, you are where you are because you made the choice to be there. If you can't get a job that pays more then 10 bucks, it's because you made the choice not to study. If you are stuck in a job you hate, it's because you have not gotten off your ass to go back to school. If you have a dozen kids you can't feed, it's because you decied not to use protection!!! You are were you are because you made choices to put you there!!! So stop bitching because you want something someone else has. And while you're at it get off your ass to work towards your goals.
The problem is, the plunders are starting to out number the producers.
2) You turned. YOUR FAULT!!
a) Stop, look, wait, go. If you can not see more then you can drive, don't go.
b) when pulling out match the speed of traffic ASAP
c) if you do (A) you can judge (B)
3) The fact his head light work even if barely killed any chance of your case. I can see a relector on a car at 500 yards, why can't you see a car with a have ass working head lights?
4) The fact you know his headlight barely work, proves you COULD see him coming.
There is no way I would buy a car with one of these black boxes. To the best of my knowledge my RSX doesn't have any system that keep track of how many times I hit the rev limitor or how fast I go, at least I hope not!! The last thing I need is someone I don't know and don't trust knowing when and where I took my weekly sprinited driving trip. I have reached triple the speed limit on twisty back roads. Personally I think it's should be none of anyone busy how fast I drive unless I hit someone. I think speed limits are set WAY to low. The type of car, traffic, and road condition determain how fast is safe.
Anyways, as far as teen drivers, give them a crappy old tank of a car after they turn 18. Let them drive that clunker for a year and promise that if they keep it in good shape and wreck free you'll buy them a car they want. That is what I wished my parents did before giving me a classic muscle car.

Think about a dead guy on probation the next time you ask the government to do something for you.
The government role is to increase tax reveuve to increase spending. The only time taxes are ever lowered is when there is a strong outcry.
The FCC isn't messy around when they give it dry!!
that's so 1998!!
If God role less relevant, why is the world getting so much worst off? I think the world is so bad off right now because of the decrease of faith in God.

You want to speak of the rest of the world? How about this, the rest of the world does not enjoy the economical freedom America enjoy.

1) Stay in school
2) Get and keep a job
3) Stay away from drugs
4) Only have kids you can afford.
5) Abide the law
It's just that simple.
What? Am I entitled to extravagent opulence at the cost of the lives of my fellow humans, at the cost of global suffering? What the fuck!! My dollars give those people JOBS.

I can not help the fact that the country that they live in do not have the resouces to train these people for highing pay jobs, but by me buying products from them, I'm giving the chance to work towards a better life.

Are you selfish? HA!! How much time and money have you give a way? I give homeless people money FREELY. I donate my time FREELY. I donate money to churches and other things I believe in all with FREEWILL. Why do you think that I wish to keep what is mine I'm selfish.
Greedy? Alright. What do I need to live? A hut, grain, and water. Anything more then that could be consider excessive. But do I deserve what I earn? Do I deserve to make the money I make? Let's see here, I currently put in 40-50 hours a week of mind numbing work. I have ever worked 100 hours week. I study for a year and I must keep study to keep my skill up. I have to be friendly to people I don't like. I work hard to keep what I have. I have made good choices. I abide the law. Do I deserve what I have? YOU BETTER BET YOU ASS I DESERVE WHAT I HAVE!!!
You must be talking about the people that just got off the boat, couldn't speak english, and would work for pennies in the late 1800's. What's my answer to that? We have schools, so go there and have the will power to say no to shitty pay.
The corruption of Rome started when the people learned that they could plunder with the voting booth. They shifted their morality of stealing to unmoral leaders to steal from other to give back to the people who voted for them. The people who they elected lacked moral because who would steal but those who have no morals? Thus, these unmoral stealing leaders lead to other corrupt in Rome. The corrupt grew to the army which weaken it. This allowed other armies to walk into Rome with little fighting.
Today, Americans are learning that they can plunder by using the voting booth. They plunder by demanding highest taxes on those with more. Please, if nothing else, understand that statement.
All I saying is if you earned something through legal means, you deserved to keep it.
Redistribution of wealth is pundering, stealing, and looting all rolled into one. That is not your money!! That is someone else money that they EARNED!! The work for it!! The people receiving the money did not EARN it. You're taking money from one group, the people that earned, to people that are sowing in the fact LIFE IS HARD. How can you say it's not stealing?!?
The cost of Government to protect me, everyone else, copywrite can be cover by duties taxes currently placed on imports. It's when you start throwing these "redistribution of wealth" vote buying programs does the cost rise. And why do Government love these programs? Becuase the poor people love to get money for free and saps like you gets this warm cozzy feeling because you're not the one paying 40% in income taxes!!! You're not the one that work his butt off to go through school to get the job or start the buniess to earn more then 120k a year.
Do you study histroy? Why did Rome fall? Becuase the got lazy and put the burden on the people that produced the goods they relaied upon. What do rich people produce every single time their spend money? Jobs, that's what. take the rich folks money, you're taking your job away in the end. If you can't see that, you are truely blind.
If it's not a God given right, what's the whole deal about stealing? Is not stealing taking that which is not your from another? Let's see:
steal (stl) v, - To take the property of another without right or permission.
Thus, to have something which is yours is a God given right to have that property. To demand their property at gun point unequal to every other people in relation to what they have (make the rich pay more in taxes) is to steal, plunder, pillage, rifle, sack, loot, ransack, spoil, spoliate, despoil, strip, sweep, gut, forage, levy blackmail, pirate, pickeer, maraud, lift cattle, poach, badger, hold up, stick up, bunco, bunko, filibuster, swindle, peculate, embezzle, sponge, mulct, rook, bilk, pluck, pigeon, fleece, defraud, and obtaining under false pretenses.
Basicly everytime you demand property by higher taxes on those with more, demand that produces give their product without trade, you are being a thief. Plain in simple. Prove me wrong.
What you showed here is a lack of morals, not greed. A person that would kill a kid for two bucks, would rape a woman for a three, rob cars for four, or knock off your ex-girlfriend for five. The horriable thing is the total lack of morals shown by the people that and loot from people that earned money (taxes), grow crops, produce goods, or thought of the ideas we love so much. These producers have spent their time to produce and has the freedom to produce as much they wish. They have the right to keep what the earned and do what they wish with it. They have a God given right to keep their earnings, and you DO NOT have the right to loot, plunder, or demand their earnings or what the produce. That is stealing.
In America, you are where you are because you made the choice to be there. If you can't get a job that pays more then 10 bucks, it's because you made the choice not to study. If you are stuck in a job you hate, it's because you have not gotten off your ass to go back to school. If you have a dozen kids you can't feed, it's because you decied not to use protection!!! You are were you are because you made choices to put you there!!! So stop bitching because you want something someone else has. And while you're at it get off your ass to work towards your goals.
The problem is, the plunders are starting to out number the producers.
1) Driving through a red light fast is stupid
:)
2) You turned. YOUR FAULT!!
a) Stop, look, wait, go. If you can not see more then you can drive, don't go.
b) when pulling out match the speed of traffic ASAP
c) if you do (A) you can judge (B)
3) The fact his head light work even if barely killed any chance of your case. I can see a relector on a car at 500 yards, why can't you see a car with a have ass working head lights?
4) The fact you know his headlight barely work, proves you COULD see him coming.
5) You fucked up.
Have a nice day.
There is no way I would buy a car with one of these black boxes. To the best of my knowledge my RSX doesn't have any system that keep track of how many times I hit the rev limitor or how fast I go, at least I hope not!! The last thing I need is someone I don't know and don't trust knowing when and where I took my weekly sprinited driving trip. I have reached triple the speed limit on twisty back roads. Personally I think it's should be none of anyone busy how fast I drive unless I hit someone. I think speed limits are set WAY to low. The type of car, traffic, and road condition determain how fast is safe.
Anyways, as far as teen drivers, give them a crappy old tank of a car after they turn 18. Let them drive that clunker for a year and promise that if they keep it in good shape and wreck free you'll buy them a car they want. That is what I wished my parents did before giving me a classic muscle car.
