Sure you can afford this stuff...
After all, just north of your border there is a huge country with a huge military ready to protect your ass in case of any trouble.
"There's absolutely nothing sad about it. It's merely a choice, like choosing to abstain from alchohol or to drink. "
What a bullshit.
What do you think would happen if everyone decided to stop drinking or smoking?
Would it be pretty much the same as everyone deciding to stop procreating?
Would you be still so happy if you weren't living in community with " educational, health, or government facilities" yet still have to pay for this stuff?
It is a serious question.
I pay $40 for T1 speed access, have no limit on bandwidth AND SERVICES I can run (except for commercial purposes), static IP and get this.... I live in US.
It is a big country, you know.
Hell, why don't you just vote 100% tax rate.
It will definitely speed up "overwall spread of wealth", don't you think?
The only problems is... some day there won't be anymore wealth to spread as everyone will get accustomed to living on receiving end of this spread.
Looks like 70 years of "spreading" in Eastern Europe hade no effect. There are still people who argue for this bullshit..
Hehehe. Call me when Canadians stop crossing the border to get more complicated medical procedures done without waiting for 6 months as it is custom in Canada.
There you go: "Legitimately". You are paying for this dude, yet some idiot you never met will set rules for what is legitimate.
It is amazing how people bitch about privacy yet so easily subject large part of their income to some third party to be spend on dubious things.
Are you really that afraid of making your own decisions?
"Your libertarian ideals will only result in a country full of huge monopolies answerable to no one but themselves and their shareholders, not the law, not the consumers/citizens. "
Hell yeah, I will take that any time over single huge monopoly run by bunch of politicians.
And you know what ? I am not even libertarian...
First of all. You job is not affected by economic downturns, your "company" is not bound by any profit requirements.
You live off our taxes.
Please, don't even bring your place as an example, you simply don't go by the same rules the rest of us goes.

"This is like saying during a strike that you should only go on strike if you want to. Its crap. "
Whoa...
That was enough. No need to write anything else.
I will make sure to oppose any attempts to organize union where I work.
Last thing I need is bunch of bullies "advising" me to join their strike....
Hah, I remember disciplining my son at school for being too rude to his teacher..
You know what happened? I was taken aside and basically threatened by schools staff for spanking him.
After that, our son told us he was encouraged to basically report any sort of spanking or other "abuse" to school officials.
Don't complain about parents, you people and the rules you have created are your own worst enemy.
"No. I work for the employer, but it's the employer and the unions that negotiates. "
Typical socialist bullcrap. These unions generally negotiate for some sort of standard salary caps REGARDLESS of individual excellence.
Basically, with union there is no incentive to work better - they will not agree to any increase in your salary unless everybody else gets the same.
You are right but nobody will listen... People here are too rich and too used to having just about everything available to even realize where all this wealth comes from.
"The union jobs were always more secure and more fairly administered. "
Sure they are but hiring Union specialists usually costs me around 50 % more and sometimes I am not even given a choice; I have to hire Union people.
To but it shortly, from my point of view unions are simply vehicle to artificially keep prices high.
Heh, somebody should remain them that this game was invented by non-muslims. In fact, if it weren't for English soldiers you wouldn't even know such thing existed.
Shit. Wrong paste.

Do you think my post was a combative response to original think or was it more-less confirmation ?
Duh.

Of course it is not. Especially considering I am paying this much for standard, private run high-speed access Internet service.
Yeah, Sping. It turned out you have not read the story...
Ziff guys is right, their article does not present two servers as a competing designs.
Dude, children are future of this country.
What's wrong with recognizing this fact ?
I don't care about minimum wage.
As far as I am concerned it is non-issue.
Understood ?

"wondered why older programmers smiled and laughed a little whenever talk turned to the 'red-hot job market' for programmers. "
They do. This is exactly how most onPaint events for GUI controls are written ( assuming one cares abote flicker free redraws.)
