    Yes, so the criminals can see who the law abiding people are and make them easier targets.

  2. Piss poor analogy.. It is like saying you have a freedom to speak, but not to be in the same space with anyone else... You cannot have one without the other.

    So you wanna get rid of not only the second, but the fourth amendment as well? or are you just a troll.

    This is not a law change, this is saying the law was invalid and could not be enforced.. This frees everyone who was found guilty under solely that law.

    Slashdot: News for Nerds, Stuff that Matters.

    To be honest you are wrong, A navy was created in 1775, but it consisted of 6 warships built for the navy. The states has no navy, it was all privateers and the French, as all the ships at the start of the war were owned by the British.

    Umm.. And how do you do that??? I mean it is not like there is access to the frequencies needed to create one. If the government sold more then ATT or the other carriers would pay vastly more then you can afford to get it, even just to keep you from entering the market.

    First why is that a down side, other than for those Chinese people. After all for every 1 hot gamer girl they will have to go through thousands of basement boys.

    This is a local issue, not a federal one. Schools are paid for by local and state taxes

    Except those food banks and homeless shelters are not done just because they want to help people, but to try and proselytize. Such as why do we give gifts to a charity who is then going to tell the kid it was a gift from a deity, and not from a nice person far away.

    Except SS and medicate SHOULD NOT BE included...Those are paid for by something other than the base income tax. They are paid directly as a tax FOR those things. It does not matter if people consider them to be part of the system or not,

    No, my solution would be to have them pay a wage that values what the people do, and not just hope that there are people desperate enough to work for slave wages.

    That is not the statement I was responding too., It was the implication that in the US movies unions are not portrayed as bad people.

    Dont like the unions, then dont form a business there.. It works both ways..And I doubt people would be happy to have these jobs, more likely it may be their only choice.

    I am from NC, and we are raised to think that unions are the devil's play things. The majority of the south east is raised that way, and some in the midwest.

    As for movies where unions are the bad guys, there are plenty, ever movie where you see a couple of union guys pick up a bat to go beat down on someone.

    Except that is not what they are saying at all. They provide much better educational opportunities than we do in the US, and education increases productivity just as much as experience. They also didnt say they let the unproductive people stay unproductive, their social services require they become productive, or they are thrown out, keeping a steady supply of productive workers.

    That will be harder, since I am fairly certain the shipping prices would be prohibitive, especially things like having to go through customs. Just doing a simple UPS check from sending from my address to Vancouver costs 2x as much as from my address to LA, for the lowest tier service.

    Maybe Mail orders as the union states? I think that fits better than a "logistics" job.

    Yes because as someone looking for a job you should have absolutely no say in what your pay is..... You, sir, are the idiot.

    The robots are coming no more faster than they were already, because amazon does not want to have to pay you a dime in the first place.
