It looks to me like the PROC has converted the economy directly from communism to fascism while retaining the "Communist" brand name. That rumble you hear is Mao rolling in his grave at 100,000 rpm.
"Free from regulation" is an interesting phrase. By this you mean, I'm "free" to pay your ISP to assure that when you shop for what I'm selling, you experience ease of use and quick access to information from my web site, but not from the web sites of my competitors? I'm free to spend my billions of dollars however I want. Why should you have any say so about it?
"You cannot have a job without a labour contract (whether an individual one or a collective one)"
I've heard that if you lived in some European countries that might be true. But I live in the U.S. And most workers here are employed without contracts. I've got an employee handbook. But on the first page it says "Nothing in this handbook should be interpreted to grant an employee a right to employment or continuance of any working conditions, etc.... (Employer) reservers the right to repeal, modify, amend, with or without notice," etc. An employee handbook is not a contract.
I've said it before. The idea that the news media has a liberal bias is bullshit. News media has a corporate (and therefore conservative) bias. The bias is often (as in this case) not demonstrated by spin they put on a story, but by the lack of coverage on important issues that the media's sponsors don't want you to hear about.
One way or the other, the free (as in speech) internet will die. You may now select to have the internet controlled by powerful corporations, or by the government (which is controlled by powerful corporations). Aren't you glad you live in a democracy where you can choose?
The MSOffice 2003 user interface is very similar to the OpenOffice 3.2. At my work we recently switched from MS Office 2003 to 2007. There are a few improvements in functionality, but the change in the interface (the ribbon) is difficult to adjust to. I think that's exactly what Microsoft was shooting for in changing the interface, i.e. making it difficult for the casual user to switch to alternatives. Most of the changes aren't really improvements, but rather an attempt to lock themselves in as the sole vendor.
Louis B. Mayer once commented about the movie industry, "I realized then that movies are the only thing you can sell and still own." Mr. Mayer lived before software but I'm guessing he'd have been heavily invested in it.
...we should all pay a tax and the funds used to provide medical care to every citizen. But Saint Rush Limbaugh says that's morally wrong because most of "those people" don't deserve any.

... Study commissioned by the Very Big Corporation of America proves competitors products are inferior.
He who pays the piper calls the tune.
Oh wait. I hate to respond to my own message, but Googling Google and Binging Bing makes the conclusion obvious.
When I Google Bing, I get 85.4 million results.
When I Bing Google, I get 213 million results.
Parse those statement and try to reach a conclusion.
I have no mod points. But that's pretty much it in a nutshell.
Sometimes, I can "fool myself" by drinking what I know is decaf and yet still get a caffeine buzz.

I think it might be cool if your car played the theme from Shaft, cause he's a bad mutha... ... shut yo' mouth ... ... but I'm just talkin' 'bout Shaft.
Well that would be beyond counterproductive. My bet is you'll run over the first blind person who gets anywhere near your car when its moving.

That's the essence of the difference between conservatives and liberals. You don't trust the government. We don't corporations.
That's not surprising.
When? is a difficult question to answer when you're talking about a time machine.
now = no
... It stops for now reason and needs frequent rebooting.
Ohhh! 'pen' '__' 'is'. Now I get it.
The definition of "cloud" seems pretty nebulous to me.
My co-workers can't see it in me either. That's because I mutter under my breath and keep it suppressed where it can fester into a mental illness.

So just use KDM instead.
