I love it when some big headed star goes out on stage, in front of the media, and has the boldness to state that they are being censored, and then insult certain political figures.
One thing that you need to realize, is thats its a complex process to bring veggie oil to work on a newer VW system. Its just to thick, tends to gunk up, and mess up the pump. If you do want to run that stuff, you have to do lots of it to make it work with your fuel pump, unless you have a older VW or Mercedes.
The VW fuel pumps run upward of 1100 dollars, so be careful. They are the most advanced things in the car!
Look at america, the average family is 2.5, and dropping. Europe is under that. Do you know why. Freedom. So you give countrys freedom and they will prosper. Prosperous countrys generally have low birth rates. Its a proven fact, look at the birth rates for industrialized countrys. Sociology 101 man!
no not a idiot, just remember, most the ice is in antartica, on land, so its supposedly melts and goes into the ocean. I think its all bull hockey, but thats just me.
well your right, the website does have political bias, but if you were to follow the links(which were pdf's from the IRS and such) at the bottom of the page, which hopefully would be less bias. Also, I earned 40k, dont own a house and I paid less than 10 percent of my wages in taxes. (something in the 2-5k range I think). So even If I paid 7k in taxes (about 20 percent of my wages), thats NOTHING. Thats why rush says the top 50 percent pay 96 percent of taxes. because the top 10 percent pay 80 percent, because my 7k is beans.
A shitload is relative. It may be alot, but go look at europe, and imagine 40 percent of your check disappearing
ahha! but the top 5 percent of wage earners pay 53.25 percent of all the taxes in this country.
The top 50 percent pay 96.03 of the taxes. so you people who make under 30k, dont really pay taxes. in fact, most people now adays that make 60k a year and own a home dont pay taxes...unless your single....*snicker*.
but doesnt gasoline have 26 base pairs making it a awsome fuel source for hydrogen fuel? Thats why fossil fuels are such a good source of power, because of the amound of base pairs they have...from what I remember of college chemistry.
on another note, i heard for small amounts of power you can pee in your tank. (fuel cell wise) is that true?

you know what, me being a right wing person, I feel just like you. I wish i could get better than 26MPG on my 4cyl. I want to get better and have more advanced technologies just so I can hurt those bastards. I dont really care about what I drive other than that fact. oh, and I'm a cheapskate!
Nasa spending millions developing a space pen is a urban ledged. They used pencils at first as well. It ended up being a nasa employee on his own time developed the space pen, and there the problem was solved. no millions spent by nasa.
Man, all that H! Thats gonna be tough. I sure hope it dosent comind with O to make WATER. Hydrogen is unstable, so it dosent ususally stay as Hydrogen. It simply does not have the electrons. So it combinds with O to make either heydrogen monoxide(still relitivly unstable), or 2 oxygen mols to make Water. So yea.

well providing it and how they provide it are kinda the case here. I really feel like I'm splitting hairs, and I dont really want to do that, because for the most part, everything you say is very reasonable.
Now i dont know too much about radio brodcasting, so I dont know what the government has their hands in there. So I'll take your word for it. I guess what I think can be summed up like this.
companies should be allowed to do things within the legal limits of our laws. The government shouldnt tell them what to do if they are within the laws. If the company is shunned by the public for any reason, that company should go out of business. If the companie has demand, and is making a profit, then it wont go out of business.
The whole government allowed monopoly thing is fine. the whole power thing, yup. But the power thing happened because of mismanagement. Go talk to Grey Davis about that.
Thats all fine and dandy, but they are a private(with public shares) company, and they are entitled to do whatever they want. And if they crash and burn, will anyone really complain. So the business cycle happens. We get new start-up TV and radio stations, which has the music and diversity we like, eventually one of them starts buying the rest, standerdizing the contect, crash and burn, etc, etc, etc.
I'm not disagreeing with you that what they are doing isnt completly annoying. And people are greedy. Its obvious. But even if you go to biblical times, greed leads to downfalls. It just takes time. I try not to focus on what those big conglomerates do, and just do what I want to do. If that supports a part of them, then thats fine. They are doing something I like. If I support somethign more independant, then thats fine, I support what I like(I'm reffering mostly to music right now).
Do we get cookie cutter TV shows that are boring. Yes. Do we not watch them because they are boring. I sure hope so. Will that lead to innovation. If not, well crash and burn baby.
Not to miss your point entirely however, basically what you are saying is that greed causes complete collapse. Well yea. But collapse means innovation. And thats what we should look forward to.

There's nothing wrong with 6 kids per family, there's something wrong with making limitations on a basic human right, such as having kids.
