  1. Re:Eric Holder on US Promises Not To Kill Or Torture Snowden · · Score: 1

    That's the cusp of it. As bad as he is, Mittens would have been worse. They play this trick election after election, and it will always work.

    If their neighbor's children are vaccinated, no problem, if not natural selection works, and humanity is better off.

    The public has no POWER to hold the police accountable. Democracy in this country is completely broken.

  12. Re:Ah, the mythical CS skills shortage on MS Tackles CS Education Crisis With Popularity Contest · · Score: 4, Interesting

    I still don't think it will solve the problem. How are programmers gonna buy those 400k Redmond tract houses on a 40k salary?

    There are too many vultures looking to exploit the next generation, and not enough meat to go around.

  17. Re:employers don't want to paying for health insur on America's Second-largest Employer Is a Temp Agency · · Score: 1

    It's just so screamingly stupid to put this on employers and say you want to create jobs. We would have been better off leaving it alone until there was the possibility go single payer. Now Obamacare will make a huge mess, and the republicans will point to it and use the failure to prevent anything useful from getting done.

    I thought the democrats were supposed to be the smart ones this time around.

  18. Re:practicalities make it impossible.. on Why Are Japanese Men Refusing To Leave Their Rooms? · · Score: 5, Insightful

    I think what's happening is that people find more interesting conversations on the internet than they can find among the people around them, and it makes the people around them far less interesting by comparison. I honestly don't know anybody besides my wife in meatspace that I would have a conversation with out of anything but politeness. Almost everybody simply regurgitates what they see on cable TV, or talks about their offspring.

  19. Re:Yet another great argument... on D.C. Awards Obamacare IT Work To Offshore Outsourcer · · Score: 1

    I was talking about what made America great, the idea of American Exceptionalism as a counterargument to the idea that capitalism is what made America. I said nothing about outsourcing, living wages, or any of the stuff that you've got a bug up your ass about. You probably have decent reading compression, when you're not all in a lather about your pet cause (which my statement actually supports indirectly).

    Calm the fuck down and think.

  20. Re:Yet another great argument... on D.C. Awards Obamacare IT Work To Offshore Outsourcer · · Score: 3, Insightful

    A gigantic, unexploited continent chock full of resources is what made America great. Americas problems have increased as less of those resources and land remain there for the taking. Meanwhile, we blame each other for what none of us have any control of.

    Well, you're going to have to figure out some way to make kids not be stupid then. After thousands of years of failure, I don't think you will have much luck on that score.

    A more prudent approach would be to make adults accept the fact that kids are stupid.
