It is a false choice between $15 an hour and $7.25 an hour. If they had kept minimum wages up with inflation they would be about $9.90 an hour. Lets the raise the minimum wage to $9.90 am hour and then automatically index it for inflation every year.
Actually look at the work done on the low end with the AMD APUs, they have made low end video cards somewhat obsolete and and forced intel to at least make their built in graphics somewhat less crappy.
Any computer made in the last 7 years with 2 gb of memory can run windows 10 at a reasonable speed, basically any computer that can run windows 7 well can run windows 10 well. Even gamers are realizing all they really need to replace for most games is the video card. So computers are getting replaced now when they old computer just dies.
What will start computer sales again? Probably when Oculus-like VR drops from $600 to say $200, maybe some breakthrough in 3d projection. Home robots? Who knows, something that demands more computing power.
Private companies like facebook or twitter are not required to pay for your microphone that's not what freedom of speech is about. If the government bans you from speaking that is bad. If Facebook pulls your page thats their editorial discretion(also part of the first amendment) then you can move over to reddit or myspace or whatever.
At "real sit down restaurants" they usually work for tips which are quite a bit better than $15 an hour.
The type of restaurants that would be effected are fast food places, the type of places that automation would help.
Also though I don't know about you but a mobile robotic drink refill-er would be pretty useful when you have to wait 20 minutes for a server to bring you a refill on your lemonade or coffee.
In 2011 a Florida Highway Patrol officer pulled over and cuffed a miami police officer for going 120 mph to a second job. The FHP officer was harassed by other cops.
"After filing a public records request with the Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles, Watts discovered that her personal information had been pulled up by scores of officers from 25 different jurisdictions. Her data had been accessed more than 200 times total."
The crittenden nomination was after the presidential election by a lame duck president. A better counter example would be Grover Cleveland, a Democrat, appointing a justice in April of 1888 an election year. Cleveland also appointed another justice in 1892 also an election year, in both cases congress was controlled by the Republicans and in both cases the nominee was confirmed in short order. Most of 6 failed nominations were in fact defeated not ignored. If a nominee is withdrawn it does not count. Eisenhower appointed william brennan as a recess appointment in 1956 in an election year and the justice was confirmed in the following year.
Actuallt Robert Bork got his vote and was rejected 42-58...nice try though, They have to hold a vote on whether to approve a nomination, however they can reject it.
You people with your bsd machines are all alike, cheap socialist people with affordable healthcare and free education running bsd on their worn out 10 year old boxes feeling entitled to all the latest trojans and spyware. I pay for my operating system to be slowed down by spyware and viruses and I pay for antivirus to slow my system down some more. Why should you be entitled to this when you didnt even pay for it??? CLOSE THE BORDERS! Make Murica Great again!
One problem for the "evil cartel" Patents are only good for 20 years and even if the energy itself is free maintenance of the power lines and distribution equipment costs money.
She doesnt have to "get her message out there", Trump doesnt have enough money to persuade democrats and independents to vote for him. He has a hard core support of 30% of the electorate while pretty much everyone else who isnt a hard core right wing type loathes him. As long as shes not indicted this is not a long term issue and the classified stuff wasnt classified when she sent it. Constitution? Ex post facto clause? anybody?
The US planes may be better in many respects but with US domestic politics as unstable as it is...who knows if the US would let them buy the planes. However I would expect Iran Air to order a lot of spare parts for the 7 747 boeing planes it already owns and perhaps purchase additional boeing planes on the open market (there are plenty available).
Which is interesting because there have been plenty of train wrecks due to human problems(drivers going too fast, drunk, not trained eough). The thing about computer control is that trains dont go overspeed or drive recklessly. Perfect control does not exist.
Chinese system is not a free market it is cronyism. Information regarding the tainted milk was suppressed and lawyers in china were pressured by officials not to get involved.
We get that here in America where people get in a tiff because their public school or charity wont accept their "kind donation" of an XP machine and tube monitor.
In the past yes, but nowadays frozen whale meat is stockpiled and meat harvest is subsidized. Japans government is full of older men who ate the stuff as kids.

A lot of electricity now is produced from natural gas which is much cleaner than gasoline.

(Before you flame me...this was meant humorously)
but eventually sure. Android boxes already do emulation of multiple consoles. Nintentdo, Super nintendo, N64, gameboy,etc.

If Trump were harassing another twitter user or advocating harassing them then yes his account would get banned.
Merely expressing offensive thoughts directed at noone in particular does not get you banned.
No im not s trump fan...at all
Fortunately shes running against trump who people other than hard core right wingers dislike even more
If shes indicted expect Elizabeth Warren to jump into the race and then bernies campaign dies a quick death.
Why are there libertarians voting for Trump?

Well they have our missle, we have 45 square miles of their territory.

I wish we could switch over to molten salt reactor, They can be easily shut off if needed.
Tracking IP's of people who visit these websites more than a couple of times isnt.
