Russia's economy is smaller than California. Their is _no_ empire in their future.
If California was a country it'd be the 5th richest the economy in the world. So Russia is still wealthy, plus it has massive military power, and more importantly it has intent. Dismissing Russia as a threat because they aren't in the top 5 rich list seems a bit ignorant.
Came here to say the same thing. This is a open door for corrupt cops to abuse their power.
I'd be interested see a comparison of the current laws and restrictions in the US today and Soviet Russia in the 80's. Reagan would be rolling in his grave.
There's so many other parts of the world other than Europe and the US. Try somewhere else. I'd recommend Canada...
Isn't Canada just USA-lite? I'm not saying that to be facetious, if you're talking about travel, then go somewhere different. Try Thailand or Nepal or Fiji. Go somewhere completely different and discover how many wonderful cultures there are out there that aren't of European origin
so they'll come here because they have to to keep their jobs. And so the Global Race to the Bottom (tm) continues. Second Dark Ages here we come.
Assuming when you say "here" you mean the US then no. What will happen is the same that happened to 20th century Europe when the US was the land of the free, all the smart people moved out of Europe and the global centre of power shifted towards America.
If Trump continues down this path then the smart people will simply choose the next best place to live and work and America will lose it's place at the top.
This isn't a global race to the bottom, it's an American race to the bottom. A lesson in how to squander immeasurable wealth by electing a moron to gut your economy from the inside out.
The Chinese must be salivating at the opportunity that has fallen into their laps.
When it comes to big decisions, Boss-T, the President of the United States, is picking up the phone to TV celebrities on deliberately-biased cable news shows, rather than the leading tech executives in the country, international diplomats, and god knows who else, including, apparently, MIT Scientists.
To be fair, this is actually a tactic that works politically. It doesn't work at making the world a better place, but it does work at staying popular because you are simply tapping into already popular opinion and re-enforcing it. It is the great flaw with democracy, you end up with the leadership you deserve rather than what you need.
There is plenty of proof that men get paid more, moron.
Well that's a bit harsh...
Or don't you know how to do a search? Open your mind to facts instead of mindlessly believing shit?
Alright, get ready for the facts, I can't wait...
Proof that there is no pay bias? Hah!
Ok I'm losing confidence now...
And it doesn't end at work. Just look at...
Wait. What?
This was your big opportunity to present the facts, and you ranted on about housework instead?
Pleased do a better search because that was rubbish. The gender pay gap myth continues....
I'm no SJW but it seems to me that the difference between what men and women are paid to do identical work is a Real Thing,
Got any evidence to support that? Because I've been hearing this for years but am yet to see one solid piece of evidence to back it up. The lack of data speaks volumes.
Maybe society as a whole was just more bigoted then, but that's still no excuse for a lack of massive, nationwide resistance to the atrocities committed by their government. So I can't agree that most of them had normal human decency.
Depends how you define normal? Milgram taught us that to obedience is normal human behaviour, and we can see it even today in less extreme circumstances. When the authorities say something, most people still follow even when it makes no sense.
This is why we need checks and balances in all positions of power, because the human brain can't be trusted to always do the right thing. It is normal for humans to do the wrong thing and we all need to recognise this.
In all this time, I see you didn't actually provide a rational argument, just "Somalia".
I did you just failed to grasp it
And did you really mean to start a low UID fight, diaper baby?
It's as if you actually believe that a low UID automatically makes you right, or that people on this site can't have multiple accounts. So which one of those poor assumptions did you jump on to just now?
I was really impressed by the new Mavic Pro and was about to fork out $1600 to buy one. But I cannot support behaviour such as this, so will spend my money elsewhere. DJI is dead to me now.
Ok you said so so it must be true. Where I live we have different rules, and they involve things such as citations and references. You'll learn about those when you get older...
No, what's happening now is that there is no evidence to support Russian hacking and there never was.
CIA, NSA and even senior Republicans seem to think otherwise. As untrustworthy as they are, they are still more trustworthy than some anonymous internet forum guy. Good luck with your mission comrade...
Blaming Russia is one thing, but if your official fucking email is GMAIL OR HOTMAIL and you use it for official party/government correspondence AND you're dumb enough to be phished, then Russia can only take part of the blame.

Name these people, please.
About 3 seconds of googling found this: http://www.politico.com/magazi...
Whooosh is used when someone missed something incredibly obvious to all,
You truly are the gift that keeps on giving
I believe the phrase is 'whooosh!". Best to stop digging now...
Exactly. That thing will snap in half the moment it leaves the ground. If it does survive being airborne, it will never survive a landing.
Why? Justify your comment with an explaination.
I'll justify it on his/her behalf: http://dictionary.cambridge.or...
Where are my mod points :)

Why are you using per-capita output? The atmosphere doesn't care about per-capita output.
True, but it gives some perspective to the nature of the issue, and why it will never be resolved.
There is plenty of proof that men get paid more, moron.

The government may need Google more than Google needs them
I'm pretty sure if the government went away overnight, it would hurt a lot more than if you had to use Bing...
Like how the Saturn V was done by the Germans?
Maybe society as a whole was just more bigoted then, but that's still no excuse for a lack of massive, nationwide resistance to the atrocities committed by their government. So I can't agree that most of them had normal human decency.

It's as if you actually believe that a low UID automatically makes you right, or that people on this site can't have multiple accounts. So which one of those poor assumptions did you jump on to just now?
Same here. I bought a cheap drone to practice on and was about to make a $1600 plunge on the Mavic Pro. They just lost me as a customer too.
I was really impressed by the new Mavic Pro and was about to fork out $1600 to buy one. But I cannot support behaviour such as this, so will spend my money elsewhere. DJI is dead to me now.
In an economics discussion you say "Somalia".
Ok you said so so it must be true. Where I live we have different rules, and they involve things such as citations and references. You'll learn about those when you get older...
The green energy push has had significant help from government regulations and subsidies
Yes, which I am thinking helped propel the light bulb industry forward by about five years or so...
It must be true then because you thought about it and that's all that counts...
No, what's happening now is that there is no evidence to support Russian hacking and there never was.
CIA, NSA and even senior Republicans seem to think otherwise. As untrustworthy as they are, they are still more trustworthy than some anonymous internet forum guy. Good luck with your mission comrade...
Because you said so? Is that how things work where you live?
Blaming Russia is one thing, but if your official fucking email is GMAIL OR HOTMAIL and you use it for official party/government correspondence AND you're dumb enough to be phished, then Russia can only take part of the blame.
What if you use Twitter?
