    I didn't fall off of them as a kid. Stop projecting your small penis size onto my childhood.

    I find bikes uncomfortable and inconvenient, and since I'm an adult now, I prefer to use an adult method of transportation. Also, bike people are like golfers, they are obsessed with their bikes and equipment and think it's something that everyone should do and they tend to evangelize the biking lifestyle, like you just did. It angers me.

    That said, biking for exercise is fine with me, to each their own (I prefer running), I just wish they'd make the bikes get off the damn road and I wish the people that ride the things would shut the fuck up about it and go ride away from me.

    I hate bicycles, period. I hated them as a kid when I had to ride one, and I hate them now. Whatever gets more of them stolen and makes them less popular is just fine with me.

    ... And most of your response was leftwing propaganda centered on increased government regulations and programs requiring increases in taxation.

    Schools deserve no more money until they become efficient with the money they already have, and unions are not encouraging that.

    That counts for efficiency in college governance too, not just in the elementaries; there's no reason tuition needs to outpace inflation.

    I'd agree with your message on tax breaks, but everyone should be entitled to tax breaks, and Universities shouldn't be eligible for corporate money unless they can guarantee that 100% of it goes to research.

    As for drugs, how about we get some of these foreign governments to actually pay for the health of their own populations, so we don't have to subsidise their governments by increasing the price at home.

    Lastly, if we rely on the government to fund research, then the public will never be truely free to take science in directions that are counter to the government's interests; the government hasn't outlawed embreyonic stem-cell research, they only said they weren't paying for it...


    Hey Mr. Libertarian, guess who enforces all of the above? the GOVERNMENT!! So your political philosophy is fucked either way. Enjoy these parting gifts...

    The only thing the armed public wouldn't be a match for is airstrikes. Desertion would be a problem there, but there are plenty of strike and close air support pilots out there that just want to bomb shit and don't care if it's saddam's palace or their brother's apartment building.
