Concentration of wealth? It's more about the equality of opportunity (and the lack therof). People (usually lefty commie bitches)...
wow, I'm suprised that's not "Troll". Whatever.
...like to complain about how the majority of the wealth in this count is in the hands of a few, but they haven't seen anything till they get to countries like Saudi Arabia. There, the rich are rich beyond any conceivable means, while to poor are pathetically poor. There is no middle class. If you are born poor, you will die poor. If you are born into a rich family, chances are you'll die richer.
Your overall point is correct, but the AT&T deal is wrong. There is still a monopoly in Minneapolis. You buy phone service from Qwest, or you don't buy phone service. The fact that I get a different monopoly traveling to Boston doesn't really help me out. I need better service.
Even worse is that the only people who can vote for school board are those who are graduated and don't care anymore. (except for freaks like me who are born in September... still, that constitutes less than 2% of the school population)
Well, the pr0n comment would allow you to quote the Simsons... Generic Nerd: "I wrote a program which downloads porn a million times faster!" Marge:"Why would anyone need that much porn?" Homer: "soo much..." (drool)
Tech adapts. 20 years ago, if someone gave you a cd, you couldn't have done anything with it. Nowadays, you could. CD-Rs didn't work in pretty much any cd drive 5 years ago, now most new drives come with the capability to read them. If this is important enough for the manufacturers, they'll add the adapter to new drives.
You're an idiot. Skinheads are NOT the same thing as Nazis. There may be some boneheads who identify with Hitler, but 99% of skinheads want nothing to do with Naziism. Skinheads being equivalent with Nazis is an invention of the sensationalist media.
Besides, any intelligent person would realize the few Nazi skinheads (the modern equivalent of the brownshirts) would be killed, just like Hitler did in the Battle of the Long Knives.
Besides, there are plenty of Slavic skinheads... why would THEY be Nazis?
I'd like to think that, but I can't be so sure right now. Bush recinded on the US promise not to nuke nations without nuclear weapons, and is developing several plans to use them, including a Chinese invasion of Taiwan. Back to the days of tactical nuclear warfare, Reagan lives. Only now there's no nuclear superpower to oppose us. At least we were more cautious when we were enemies with Russia.
Yep, I just couldn't remember the number so I didn't want to look stupid by saying it was 15 or something.
I'm glad, for one, that the 14th exists. How frightening it would be to have a state take away the rights which I take as the default of liberty. Search, speech, assembly (although my city, like most, does not allow this), self-incrimination, etc.
If only they'd add it to cities now... I want my freedom of assembly. I could imagine the federal government getting local governments to "cooperate" and deny such rights... farfetched, but I still don't think city governments should be able - these are the laws (and cops) I face most often, especially as a minor.

Whatever, I live in the real deal, Minneapolis itself.
uh... 3 million of 5 million people live in the Twin Cities/suburbs.
Just think of the convenience!
You could simulate an atom bomb while waiting for a bus!
The difference between a good game and a piece of dung isn't graphics. It isn't music. It isn't the story, the setting, the realistic physics engine.
I know. It's the smell.

So... are you a lefty commie bitch?
The Backstreet Boys have been using it for years.
How is Sony not giving out information any different than someone who as been accused of murder not talking to police before the trial?
It'll be subpoenaed in time.
You can tell they read the Onion. They phrase shit like that when giving fake interviews.
Actually looking at the link would have told you that it's April 21st to 28th.
Or (5, insightful) for even pointing that out.

Are you saying Microsoft could possibly be lying?
News to me.
No; the vector of linear momentum and gravity make the world go round!
Hey, I've got a list of 7 oxymorons for you.
We can't vote, so no one raises the issue.

That always gets you karma.
If the Communists have robots, we need them too! We simply can't allow a robot gap!
If we give them the edge there, then South Korea falls, then Japan, then us!
I'll agree with the fact that many who identify with Nazis are just trying to rebel against something... but how are they anarchists?
I get the point, even though the way it's put doesn't make much sense.
wait... anarchists are Nazis?
How drunk are you?

Linux is like a 12-year old's breasts, OSX is like a high-schooler's... What are Windows' breasts like?

Plus they might have slept, ate, or even gone into the outside world!
