You act as if we are being shafted anywhere nearly as bad as the Russians were by Tsarist regimes. Some of us would like to stop this country from sliding into a feudal state that can only be remedied by generations of bloodshed.
I wonder how many French nobles wished they had embraced gradual reform as they were carted to the guillotine?
Raiding of pensions was not mismanagement, it was a well thought out process. It has forced funds to be farmed out to individual accounts, since one large account is too tempting a target. Unfortunately lots of small accounts make it easy to skim fees and who really cares about some schlub with less then $100k.
30 to 40 years to grow? Where do you live? Most people change jobs and cash out every 10 years, or their funds melt away because they weren't vested, and they changed jobs after 3 years.
The added volatility is not Joe Sixpack, it's the High Frequency Traders, their computers are trading at sub millisecond speeds. That or it's a smoke screen by skynet...
Put the fill dirt on a large tarp secured to the edge of the hole at one side. Attach the other side to a series of pulley's that allow your body weight to lift said amount of dirt. Attach rope to stretcher, stand in front of stretcher and shoot yourself falling back onto said stretcher (more of a backboard). Body will sink on backboard into the hole and pull up the tarp dumping dirt over your body and filling in the grave.
Every month I get a stack of coupons in the mail. The front of the letter advertises that your stack may have $100 in it. I have seen someone receive a check for $100 made out to cash in their bundle.
I open the envelope and peek in the front or riffle the coupons to check for a check before throwing the stack away. Am I "breaking the social contract"?
If you have to make up concepts like "social contract" or "experience diversity" you may be a con artist dressed up as a marketing professional...
I feel like it is worthwhile to subscribe to netflix since there are no commercials. There is no way I will ever subcribe to hulu and pay to watch commercials. That experiment needs to end.
His security is so rock solid he isn't worried. Kind of like that lifelock guy and his SS #.
In all seriousness, there is nothing wrong with publishing an email address. They used to have books that listed everyones phone number, imagine that world.
Have you ever had groceries delivered? It's a great way to get the milk that's one day away from expiring, bruised and visually unappealing apples, potatoes full of eyes with a rotten one in the bag, and discolored meat that looks like the expiration has been changed.
So, tons of spam and privacy invasions. I already have companies targeting me if I look for a car online. Now kenmore is going to sell my "need milk" data to multiple people who will spam me and harass me with useless ads and coupons I will forget to use.
Thank you for your insightful and informative comment. AK Marc is very high strung. I appreciate your calm reply and second that reading a contract is a bare minimum requirement.
Someone crazy enough to hold a grenade to their shoulder and set it off would probably scare off an attacker just as quickly as someone pointing a gun at them. The explosion might attract some attention also.
There are plenty of members who don't pay dues. I myself constantly receive free membership offers. I once availed myself of it, before I realized that the NRA does not support responsible gun owners.
Yeah, let's contract it out. It's cheaper, who cares why it's cheaper. It's obviously the exact same product with a middle-man markup for cheaper... (I got a bridge for you to look at buying...)
It's going to cost $50 million...
ok ...for each half...
ok ...plus $75 million for the special effects...
ok ...and another $25 million for the costumes...
(wince) ok ...but that's it.

Somewhere Dick Chaney is caressing a cloned heart murmuring, "Finally our goals are being met..."
Yup, only the house wins.

gotta be cheaper then a dozer
Neither of those ads report back that Joe Schmoe looked at me for 14 seconds and the next article he read or show he watched was whatever.
These are not new privacy expectations, People just didn't realize they had to be explicitly spelled out on the internet.

A properly designed VPN provides secure communications.

I like picking out my own fresh food, thanks.
I can see it now, "Billing error shuts off man's internet causing him to starve to death."

Maybe if you could step back and say, "ok, he agrees with me." and move on.

you misspelled, "keep their corporate donors happily by driving gun sales to nutters"

Well, how are people supposed to know that you are paying higher salaries?
They must use the flinch method of budgeting.
...for each half...
...plus $75 million for the special effects...
...and another $25 million for the costumes...
