Consider the number of excess deaths due to people taking more dangerous forms of transportation since 9/11 to avoid the TSA.
The Democrat_Party-caused recession has lowered the traffic fatality rate by 20% (2007-2009). To improve this desirable trend, we should follow Obama's plans and plunge the whole nation into abject poverty. If only the lordly rulers can drive, there will hardly be any accidents.
The US stock markets had not yer opened when the first building was hit, and they stayed closed all week. If someone in the Pentagon was dumping American Airlines stock, he would have had to have done it on a European market, assuming AA even traded there. He would have been in for a world of hurt when he was caught, and he would have been a fool for not trading it days earlier. In short, bullshit.
Considering how obscured and anti-intuitive Facebook is, it's difficult to understand how they can complain about changes impairing its "proper working or appearance".
Labeling is an additional expense. If the government mandates showing the GM status of foods, you are removing the possibility of the consumer to buy the least expensive food possible.
You are proposing labels on each ear of corn, each unbagged cherry, each apple in a pick-it-yourself grove. It is an unreasonable burden.
Ingredient labels exist because of pressure groups, not because of actual demonstrated need - foods with high and deadly alergenic potential like peanuts excepted.
Keeping track of the GM status of ingredients in a food processing plant would be a nightmare, replete with more government inspectors and lawsuits galore. There is no rational excuse for this silliness.
Leaving aside the deeper philosophical issue of the impossibility of perceiving that which doesn't exist, your statement is still false.
Perceived value (or more accurately, estimated value) is the motive for trade. But actual value exists, in a given context. Food is valuable for animal life. Cars are valuable for going places. Chairs have value for sitting. Clothes have value for keeping warm and hiding ugliness. Paint is valuable to protect wood.
One of the things that break down is repair mechanisms. As more of them fail, there are fewer repair mechanisms that get fixed. This destructive feedback makes the accelerating mortality rate inevitable. "Aging linearly" is simply not possible.
How do you know the drugs would be too expensive for poor people to buy them? Multivitamins are available at WalMart, and they're a part of the regimen of anyone who's seriously practicing life extension.
You haven't been paying attention. There are a great many supplements and drugs, each of which provides some statistical life extension. What hasn't happened is the development of one single thing that alone provides a huge life expectancy boost. Do your own literature search on what's necessary to help yourself, then do it.

If Voyager was sent far outside the orbital plane it couldn't have used gravity boost from the planets. Substantial speed disadvantage.
Velcro was conceived in 1941, invented in 1948, and patented in 1955.
Thank you for playing "Fraudulent Reasons to Praise the Space Program". Please take your place behind teflon.
And how many cars don't crash every day? Therefor all traffic laws and automobile standards should be ended.

Have you read the Koran? Islam is an aggressive religion that does not tolerate the existence of anything but Islam.
Islam and civilization are incompatible. At most one will survive.
On a typical day, 100 people die in car accidents in the US, 3300 worldwide. Sept. 11 + Pearl harbor = 5400.
The Pentagon wasn't a strategic military target?
29 is 15% of the fleet of Jet Blue. If all those attempts took place on Jet Blue, it would be quite significant to them.
I'd like to see the checkpoint at an unmanned field.
It's OK, it'll be running on Klamaths and Piledrivers.

You just failed math. One newborn. One aged 1 year. One aged one year, 11 months, 29 days.
Sweet potatoes taste lousy, and when cooked have the consistency of rotten banana. They deserve to be treated with disgust and "low-brow snobbery".
Patents don't last forever.

Foods picked by diseased workers have caused human deaths in the US. The same cannot be said of GM foods designed for human consumption.

Prove it. Your assertion does not make it true.
Lifespan is a continuum, so the size of the "static" category is vanishingly small. The realistic choices are only increase and decrease.
