Wow, that's some pretty good propaganda; need a job? The 'disgruntled spoiled brats' you refer to actually make a considerable contribution to global economics. I'm not naive enough to think that 'Western civilization' (as you put it) will be around forever, however it's pretty freakin' pompous to think your current lifestyle will be, either. It's obvious you believe Americans to be arrogant but your post proves you to be the same. You talk of Western civilization 'raising the floor on the cost of living, while it takes the deracinated clans and moves them into a pseudo-clan identity via national defense and police protection of monetized assets'. What the hell does THAT mean? We're assholes because we spend money on defense and police protection? Hmph. Get a clue before posting such obvious bullshit.
I would normally argue that point; but I can't. Good luck, brother and God bless....I'll say a prayer for you and your family. I know it doesn't mean much for paying your bills, but you have a complete stranger thinking of you and your family in our prayers. Again, good luck.
OMG...I didn't make it half-way through that bullshit article and then I read your response. Good show and I agree with you. "It is the U.S. government's job to protect the global economy." Says who, the author? I'll bet he has a job.
And that's generally left up to the Unions. Where else can a high school drop out make $60/hour with overtime? Thanks, Unions, I love you too. And people wonder how we price ourselves out of the market so quickly. Assholes.
I'm confused.....in what book or reference material does it ever say that Capitalism predicts balance with opportunity? I know that in the altruistic idealism that is Communism everyone is 'equal', however that is not applicable under Capitalism. I'd like to reference from dictionary.com the definition of Capitalism: An economic system in which the means of production and distribution are privately or corporately owned and development is proportionate to the accumulation and reinvestment of profits gained in a free market. Proportionate; NOT balanced. Again, there is a difference.
I've always wondered about that. Since most American employees are offered and invest in retirement programs, doesn't that make them shareholders if what they're investing in is domestic? That being said, potentially we could have a worker that expects a nice return for retirement time but gets laid off to meet those expectations. Just a thought.
I agree, however the design group would have a seriously difficult time trying to mount that 50-caliber from the base of the frame. Hmm....scratch...scratch
I believe what the poster was trying to say is that it's ridiculous to expect functional human behavior from dysfunctional corporate behavior; there is a difference. On its face, it seems logical to 'humanize' a corporation that offers such a variety of product at cutthroat prices (after all, they're my 'friend'); however these types of corporate actions actually screw consumers in the long run by undermining said trust. Personally, I only give out as much information to a retailer to make the purchase; and I'm not pleased about that, either.
Didn't the ACLU ever see 'Red Dawn'? I know it's a fictional movie but the Russians had superior firepower then, too. Wars are rarely fought and won by the overwhelming display and use of firepower or technological advancements in military engagement by a single entity (government). Like the US during the Revolution, there are many other countries whose civilians take their cultural rights VERY seriously and are willing to die for those beliefs. That's what makes war hard; and costly both in terms of dollars and lives. I'm not necessarily opposed to all military actions, however one needs to understand and contemplate the will of the enemy before making unilateral decisions to sacrifice either. That being said, I believe the second amendment is just as important as all the others; not less or more...just equal.
I have both the TI-89 and 92 and I can tell you the functionality is different. Although the 89 has differential equation functionality it can not perform direct or multiple integral problem solving. Now that's huge in calculus. Not that I've found the need to solve integrals since college, mind you.
I don't understand...the OEM told him they could not service the car and advised him to purchase 3rd party hardware; and it was under warranty? Then, he does this and is surprised that the second time it happens they won't service the vehicle? Sounds fishy to me.

Having a PhD does NOT make one smarter, it just means that said person found (or has) the financial means to become more educated; or is it edumicated....I forget.

I never made a claim and I never predicted a damn thing. Your assumptons are wrong.

That's apparently why 64% of the world send their children to the US and Britain for college level education; because we can't educate.
And that's generally left up to the Unions. Where else can a high school drop out make $60/hour with overtime? Thanks, Unions, I love you too. And people wonder how we price ourselves out of the market so quickly. Assholes.
A 'small' transfer of this capital translates into big impact domestically. I realize the scope of what you're saying; I just don't think you do.

Hey, I went to ninenine.com on a whim and got redirected 6 times and almost caught a virus; if your sig is a joke, I just got it.
Trolling AC's....don't you just love 'em?

'Ya know....I'm not a cat fan, but that was funny!
They are....but as usual you get what you pay for.
Well, you're right about one thing: that's one area I hope the US doesn't catch up with internationally; ignorant or subversive laws.

Wow...someone else on the planet saw 'Colors' too, hmphh.
You answered the question yourself in Amendment V....except in times of war.
If it doesn't work, then why would you be in a world of shit?

Now those pictures are cool; thanks!
