I am a live audio engineer who mixes at some large concerts (10,000+ people). Humidity absolutely makes a difference in how the audience hears the sound elmininating from the speakers. It can change speed, and direction, it can also refract and reflect the sound pressure waves.
Yes I realize you are joking, but in the real world on a large scale, humidity and atmospheric conditions DO matter!
"If you allow immigrants that don't maintain the property values, you dilute the value of citizenship." Actually it's more basic than that and you could've stopped at the first sentence.
Rights are all based on property. Mexicans have no right to our property, therefore they have no right to be here. Therefore, illegal immigration should be stopped because they are violating our property rights as citizens.
Telcos are NOT in the free market. The barriers to entry are so high because of government granted monopolies and legislation/regulation in favor of big business. Remember big business like big government because big government can outlaw competition!
Actually, other than aluminum (and perhaps copper), recycling is not cost effective. Add to that that most community recycling programs have extra trucks just for the program, I would say that it causes extra unneeded pollution too.
As far as trees, all paper we use come from tree farms. So if you want less trees, you less paper and they wont grow as many trees.
Uhh... I hate to tell you, but the planet doesn't belong 'to everyone'. Property rights, at least in the US, are individual. If someone from China, Japan, Mexico, or even a neighbor trespasses onto MY property, they'll find out very quickly that they don't own this specific piece of the Earth.
I dont know how you came to this communistic/socialistic conclusion that "this planet belongs to everyone" because it doesn't. And if you don't believe me, try to travel to North Korea sometime, some other God-forsaken wasteland of a country.
Ron Paul is the only person running that stands true to his philosophy. You can verify that by checking hsi voting record:
He has never voted to raise taxes. He has never voted for an unbalanced budget. He has never voted for a federal restriction on gun ownership. He has never voted to raise congressional pay. He has never taken a government-paid junket. He has never voted to increase the power of the executive branch.
He voted against the Patriot Act. He voted against regulating the Internet. He voted against the Iraq war.
He does not participate in the lucrative congressional pension program. He returns a portion of his annual congressional office budget to the U.S. treasury every year.
Congressman Paul introduces numerous pieces of substantive legislation each year, probably more than any single member of Congress.
This is why I plan on voting for US Rep Dr. Ron Paul in the upcoming primary. He has absolutely stated he is against the Real ID, and any other form of national ID scheme. His voting record shows it too:
Yup, that's right. All the oil in Alaska at the moment is sold crude to Japan.
Why?
Because there are no refineries on the US East Coast and it is more expensive to ship it around through the Panama Canal to refine it than it is to simply sell it to Japan.
Another fine example of government and the environmentalists screwing it up for the rest of us!
The US Constitution (Article I, Section 8) does not authorize Congress to: -Regulate the oil market -Set refinery standards -Regulate fuel economy -Dictate how automobiles are to be constructed
Urban sprawl is a big factor which isn't as much of a problem in Europe as it is in the US. Also the US has suburbs and is geographically HUGE compared to Europe. Perhaps that has something to do with why public transit isn't as feasible?
Don't forget however that the refineries that do exist have been able to largely increase their capacity since they were built.
However, due to the idiot environmentalists, there are no refineries on the US west coast, so it is cheaper to sell our Alaskan crude to Japan than it is to ship it down to the US refineries by way of the Panama Canal.
That's EXACTLY why there is no money behind Ron Paul - they all know he actually stands on principle and won't pander to special interests. So giving money to Ron Paul is a waste of money for most interests because he isn't for sale like the others.
You forget the Fed is a creation of the States, NOT of the People (regardless of what the Constitution says). Thus the States should be represented as originally designed. At this point in time, the States have NO control, say, or influence, at all in the way the Fed conducts their business. Also if you notice the Fed taxes the people directly now, and then uses that money to essentially 'bribe' the states to pass laws that the Fed wants passed. Ever hear of a state being threatened with their federal highway funds? That happens often.
When Senators were elected from their respective legislators, they were usually retired politicians, statesmen, former governors, people who were no longer politically ambitious and were able to represent the interests of the State.
This is clearly unconstitutional. No where in the US Constitution (Article I, Section 8) does it authorize the Congress to set insurance rates, regulate insurance, provide health care, or health insurance. On those grounds alone it should be canned.
Also anytime the government intervenes in the marketplace, it's bad for the marketplace; consumers and sellers alike.

Not exactly. They are saying that a company (such as the website in question) cannot use their copyrighted work for gain.

I believe that Sensaphonics and Westone also make in ear drivers and molds.
Yes, the only small government candidate running, US Rep Dr. Ron Paul, is NOT on this list you will notice.
That too... but realize that taxes increase the cost of living to the lower and middle working classes.

You can check his voting record and see that he is indeed the real deal.
when the Constitution was written "regulate" meant "to make regular".
In other words, that was only there to prevent trade wars between the states, nothing more.
Maybe, maybe not.
I cannot move to Calif or NY because I couldnt afford to live there, largely because of the taxes!

The GOP said the same thing to US Rep Ron Paul this week.
Yup, that's right. All the oil in Alaska at the moment is sold crude to Japan.

That's right, the US isn't a democracy. We are a Constitutional republic in which our representatives are democratically elected.

Ron Paul is very presidential and was the only candidates to differentiate himself from the rest of those clowns.
