Do you lock your car doors? Or do you leave them open with the keys in the ignition?
Or maybe your logic just isn't. Perhaps you just don't know what logic is and mistook it for hyperbole instead.
How can a president deal rationally with issues such as biotechnology or global warming when he can't bring himself to accept evolution? He can say something like "Pfft. This really has nothing to do with the presidency or the government. Look to your own moral judgement."
The Neo-cons have a rather odd view of the world and of the nature of power. They are the political equivalents of the economists of the 1920s; both essentially asserting that the old rules don't apply. In the 1920s everyone assumed that the Capitalist boom-bust cycle was over for good, that it was going to party days forever. Mises disagreed.
An average bike does 0-60 in about 5 seconds. WTF?
No. An average bike does 0-60 in about 2.5 seconds. A Harley takes 5, but Harleys are shite bikes, not average ones.
How can a 160kg bike of the same performance 160kg? You must be kidding. Harleys weigh closer to 300kg.
Sorry , something doesn't add up. Yeah, you're talking shite.
Having a single index to all the myriad of commercial and government databases which contain information on individuals allows someone with access to those databases (e.g. the security services) to monitor pretty much in real time the movements of all citizens.
Once that power has been created, it's purely down to the definition of the word "terrorist".
Tools like this will help get rid of corporate spam[1] as well as the normal stuff. They'll eventually evolve into general purpose artificially intelligent personal assistants which will act as a filter on almost all communication.

Or did you think that internet connectivity was just a given. A bit of a "let them eat cake" moment there. Though yes you should be able to get a fair amount of information on the 800Mb of internal storage. I assume they come with a load of books pre installed.
What I'm trying to say is that society should - IMHO - constantly strive to encourage and recognize diversity. And obviously a top down, monolithic, state run education system is a great way to accomplish that.
What's the point to banning some incandescent light bulbs if this bullshit is allowed? Well DOH! Your politicians will have been seen to have done something so that you will vote for them again. Don't you get it? It's not about actual results, it's about the appearance of results.

And they've been around for decades. You can buy a system today, in all civilised countries. They work in exactly the same way as your refrigerator.
Welcome to the world of propaganda. Take a look around you, see who your peers are. Then ask yourself if you really want to be a member of that group.
Just delete the crap.

There you go. Much more accurate.

"The proportion of injury crashes involving any speeding vehicle nationally was only 5%"
What are the effects of putting a speed camera on a road? How do you know it makes the road safer?
Playing a tune on a graphics card heat sink...
This is how real engineers do it.

Your're kidding, right. LEDs are going to make future christmases 10 times brighter for the same energy input.
And saturnalia is just a celebration of the winter solstice and the birth of the new year.
