The Federal Reserve is running the printing presses day and night to print new US dollars to pay debts. Now, where have I heard of that happening before and how did it turn out?
Why shouldn't socialism be an insult? Do we even *know* the atrocities that socialists committed in the name of socialism?

Uh, no? Wardialing was dialing all the station digits in a prefix to find which ones answered with a modem. Or was this an intentionally stupid comment by a user with the +2 karma bonus?
And in each of those 30 languages, native speakers translate it from the foreign speech to their own language. That's how you do translation. On the other hand, it is somehow acceptable to refuse to use native speakers of English for English translations. It's the Dunningâ"Kruger effect: these idiots are so incompetent that they don't even realize that they're incompetent, they think their English is just fine.
If there wasn't money to be made, nobody would have bothered to develop these drugs in the first place.
What, altruism? We all know humans are selfish pricks who would sooner laugh at cancer patients than help. Heck, there is a big push going on right now for euthanasia for cancer patients instead of going to all the trouble of trying to cure them. The people who allocate society's resources consider it a waste as some people get a lot of help and others get little.
This is rather disingenuous and attempting to rewrite history to serve an agenda. It's not "free association with people they don't like" when said people urge the overthrow of the U.S. government. Just look at other countries where the government WAS overthrown by the people that McCarthy opposed - China comes to mind.
When I search for my brother's name I don't want to wait 30 seconds for a search to complete, nor do I want to see his emails from 10 years ago. I just want to see his last email that he sent about the trip we're taking next week. That's the concern about too many emails.
Point being it shouldn't have overwhelmed them. Both the mayor and governor did nothing but scream for help and blame others. A hurricane was always a time to help your neighbors, or so I thought growing up.
Where do we even get ideas like this? "We are evil people because we did this". Uh, no? Enviros passed laws making it illegal to do it in our countries. What did anyone expect would happen? And suddenly we're responsible for other countries picking up the slack?
It wasn't the federal government's job to help. It was the people of New Orleans' responsibility to help themselves. I lived in the Gulf Coast for decades and Katrina was the first time I had heard of the federal government supposedly being responsible for ANYthing. Honest to God, I thought that the only thing that FEMA did was come in after the storm and offer loans. That's it. Loans, not grants. You have to pay the money back.
Ever seen the famous photo of the schoolbuses under water within a mile of the Superdome? This after the mayor of New Orleans complained that he had no transport to get people out?
We don't respect blue-collar because in our minds that means uneducated rednecks. Seriously, try that attitude in NYC or Miami and see how far you get.
Serious question: how can mass immigration negatively affect a native population?
If you Canadians had polled the First Peoples on whether or not to allow mass immigration, how might they have voted? Would this have been racist on the part of the First Peoples, seeing that they were denying themselves the benefits of diversity? Why or why not?
So, why do we bother with the expense of elections? Serious question. If polling 1000 people can tell you what it is we want, then why bother asking everyone? Because of some fiction regarding waiting outside a polling place for 4 hours? Wouldn't it be better if we just let the smart people in our society take all the positions of power instead of dumbfuck politicians?
I see we are using some new, undocumented definition of "retro gaming". It's always meant Pac-Man, Donkey Kong, etc. Did we re-define it this year and forget to tell the rest of the world? Did we bother to issue a new term for what retro gaming was last year? Go look at the Google results for retro gaming, the links to new games are quite few.
Hey, don't say I'm a hipster hater, either. In fact, I pity the poor bastards for not having any culture of their own and instead aping previous generations. That must be humiliating.

Don't worry, they'll be smashed by lawsuits once someone discovers that these methods have a disparate impact on the African-American community.
Oh, there's a left wing, all right. Why do you think Obama got the Nobel Peace Prize before he even did anything? He's a hero of the hard left.

Houston is a minority-majority city. Yeah, that. Not trendy at all. *cough* Awkward.

I wish I was lying. Sadly, it is all too true. And we're not even talking about consensual euthanasia, either.
Who said that, exactly? Or did you just make that up? I think you did...

1. Look at your calling records. 2. Call the people you called. Ask them who called from your number. 3. Done.

Glass ceiling specifically refers to discrimination against women in the workplace. You're using the term wrong. Stop it.
You've hit a glass ceiling? That's odd...you work in IT and your writing certainly sounds like a man's...how could this have happened?
Mozilla Thunderbird is amazingly slow. This shitting comment is mean-spirited, obvious flamebait and I have no idea why you got modded up to +5.

"Boogeyman" implies a threat that doesn't exist. China certainly is engaging in hacking and has a long track record of doing so. Are you a denialist?
Whaaa? Been watching too much MSNBC, I see. China has a *huge* middle class, equal to the entire population of the USA. Derp, derp....
