A) We didn't choose to work at UPS, not our problem B) You sold a service and failed to deliver on your promises, refunds are in order.
Copyright was supposed to be for the public benefit with a severely LIMITED term. Now Copyrights just get extended to eternity and nothing falls into the public domain, so piss off corporate shill....
No, if they aren't going to earn their keep, and especially if they are the kind of scum who are going to damage an employer, then instead of paying them not to work, you remove them from society, with either a bullet or put them outside the fence in the wild to fend for themselves. You don't encourage them to be lazy and destructive.
Unions your time is past. Your corruption and protection of the losers has been documented and broadcast, you killed yourselves with your greed and mismanagement.
Yes, but no as the mutli-billion dollar waste it is now, with team owners expecting municipalities to build them new stadiums when the team owner could easily afford it.
Ridiculous prices, nickle-and-diming their customers to death, still no al a carte package choices.
Comcast is one of the worst. Their service was great and rarely had any interruptions, and the Internet connection was fast, but got tired of the rate hikes, and the nickle and diming and went back to AT&T. At least by switching back to AT&T we got a great rate for the next two years, plus we don;t have to pay extra to get ALL the channels we're paying for in all rooms we have a receiver in (Comcast only gives you a cheapo box that gets hardly anything channel-wise unless you pay 10 or more extra bucks to get a "full-featured" box to get all the channels you are already paying for, plus another 8/month/box to watch the stuff you have DVRs on the main box.

Not so much "Hacking the Concept of Time" as "Hacking camera software to change how it takes pictures"

Stop this pointless "war" and get real.
That's idiotic. First, Google doesn't know who the doctor is, second, he's only looking you up, not putting your medical records out there.
This HIPPA shit goes too far if there's any way a HIPPA-cryte case could be made from a Doctor Googling info ANYONE could Google...
Really, you people need to change your tinfoil hats, I think your brains rotted clean through...
Legalize drugs, and the corporate world will take over growing and transporting them.
Regulate and tax them like they already do Alcohol and Tobacco
Real simple and will save a ton of wasted money on drug laws and bring in a metric Shit-TON on money in taxes.
... adoctor will fondle and touch and examine your most intimate body parts, yet they shouldn't look at publicly available information? STUPID.
Yes, they shouldn't jump to conclusions based on what they find, but otherwise, fair game.
But then how would eggheads steal, I mean waste, I mean get more money?
More accurately, why wouldn't you hate the government?
No kidding, how many people rememb er what they had for lunch yesterday as opposed to a password? That's all this sounds like.
Seriously.
They seems to be driving people towards piracy...
I agree this kind of financial and tax system abuse needs to be stomped out, but paying the employees "for life" is ridiculous.

It's less risky (penaltywise) to shoplift a CD/DVD/Software Package from a store than to "copy" it off the internet...
It's only a start for the **IAs the get their lobbyists to buy some more law changes...
Copyright was supposed to be for the public benefit with a severely LIMITED term. Now Copyrights just get extended to eternity and nothing falls into the public domain, so piss off corporate shill....
to revoke Copyright law.
If the **AA's aren't going to play fair, we have to take their toys away...

No, it's called reality. Why should I work to support some lazy idiot who can work but won't?
Forget that. People in actual need are one thing, but the growing welfare culture, forget it.
Useless people shouldn't have to work?
Working people shouldn't have to pay taxes to support them.
Are you suggesting just shooting them in the head?

Just spread out to a lot more people...
much better investment
Let's see, help the poor and suffering, or waste billions on a building where grown men get paid millions to play kid's games.
Yeah, fuck that shit.

Sorry, your double standard is rejected. Go crawl back under your rock and die, helping the HUMAN race advance.
