Correct. so you remove the "remove-your-genes-from-being-so-stupid" from both sides, leaving the strangulation-by-headphone being more likely to kill you then tumor-by-bluetooth.
Whatever. Unemployment around here is at record lows, and my portfolio at record highs. My taxes didn't go up, and freedom didn't go down. Couldn't say that during the 2008-2016.
Maybe not the logger's best interest, but the land-owner who's managing his timber. You have to cut those trees anyway to grow decent sawlogs. Either sell them to the papermill or let them rot on the ground. Beats having all your trees get eaten by pine beetles.
And it will keep them out of trouble. The original post actually was used by a famous democrat president...you know, FDR? Funny how democrats now disparage that. I'm not sure I personally agree with CCC and other similar programs being constitutional, but at least it gave some (not all) people money for doing something productive.
While living there I heard they buried a wagon wheel in the center of Dallas. The spokes became the major roads, and the crossing roads became loops. Probably not true, but makes a good story. In Richardson/Plano the traffic was a mess back then. Don't get me started about Arapaho! This was before George Bush, but they did have the frontage roads built. I stayed off LBJ as well--surface streets, though a mess, where still quicker.
If you're that close to having a heart attack that clock-changing pushes you over the edge, what's the chances you would have had it in the next few days anyway? Sounds like when they count the # of folks who had heart attacks shoveling snow in the "Death-from-winter-snow" stats. Makes good news, adding some to the body count, but is it a true picture?
This. If you've got to slash costs, easy way to do it is kill off the older guy$ and gal$ who are making more buck$ then the younger folks. Better yet, ease them into retirement or buy them off so they don't raise a fuss like this guy. Govt has done this quite a bit. Bonuses for getting out/early retirement. The military even had "selective early retirement" boards. You can even get rid of some useless folks (ever try to fire someone from the Gov?). The problem is you lose a lot of expertise, too.
Cheaper right now. But wait until min wage goes to $15 (and then higher--this is just the latest figure)...throw in learning curve/etc (how many McDonalds are there anyway?) and it will end up quite a bit cheaper than that teenager.
Not trying to troll...if it can't be expressed in English, why can't it be "borrowed" into the language like other words/concepts? Or any other language for that matter.
Folks tend to be safer in authoritarian dictatorships, as long as they tow the line and don't get in the way of those with power. The dictatorship usually doesn't like to share power with criminals, and without those pesky "Rights" getting in the way it's easier to keep them in line...
If I remember, that inner strip held all sorts of services like restaurants/etc. Lease that strip out to private enterprise, who then sell services to the travelers. Use money for upkeep. Not sure if that would work, but heck this is sci-fi anyway...
Despite the insults, I actually agree with part: Estonia is not the USA. And the USA is not Estonia. What works in Estonia will not work in USA and vice-versa. In many cases commutes over here would extend beyond the borders of Estonia. Not an insult, just a fact. Orders of magnitude of people more over here, too. And BTW, the USA pays a lot more to keep that bear on the other side of the border ON the other side of that border than Estonia does (or for that matter, the rest of NATO). So that allows more money to be spent on things like "free public transit for everyone".

10 years in prison. Jupiter years.
Here in the states we just let the IRS have at you when the democrats get power.

And, BTW, what the heck does this have to do with 8 dimensions anyway?

Meant to say "And (insert group that you personally hate), it will keep them out of trouble".

Lowest black unemployment rate since records were kept....DONE.
Russia's population is around the same as Nigeria's. Not that it matters, as the USA is a republic, not a democracy. And that is a big difference.
Of course how do we know they aren't already working on generation n+1, but not letting it be known?
So if I wait 100 years I can collect the copper and sell it for scrap? (and get like $0.000001)
Did they ever decide if you actually have to be convicted of breaking a thermodynamics law before you can be pardoned for it?

Citation for this piece of flamebait? Most conservatives I know are greatly aware of values of most everything...
and they chose both...
Supposedly even saddam "knew" iraq had wmd/etc...i.e., don't be the bearer of news the guy who can kill you w no compunction doesn't want to hear...
