Then get rid of college degrees all together. Replace them with certifications that stack up to a similar conclusion.
The biggest problem most people have with college is not that it is hard material, it is staying motivated for 4-5 years while overworked and dirt poor.
Most jobs need maybe 6-18 months worth of training at best. Everything else is showing up to work on time and remembering to wear pants.
Sounds good to me. Let's make school even easier! Hell we've already dumbed it down a lot, some how people still are having a hard time, so let's go all the way.
I say get rid of it, but at the same time I would like to see completing college Algebra as requirement to vote.
Frankly if you can not comprehend something that easy then you probably don't have the brain power to make intelligent decisions in the voting booth.
Lol, anyone with a ladder can go screw with AT&T's gear, and in some cases the access is conveniently on the ground..
After looking at all the garbage bolted to the side of my house by the various services that have been added over the years before I bought the house, I grabbed some cutters and pulled off everything but the FIOS box and the electric meter. After that I pulled up all the lines out of the ground all the way to the nearest pole.
Was it technically their property when I "seized" it, sure, but if they wanted it so bad maybe they should have come and got it once service was canceled. The shit on the pole is no different. AT&T are just being cunts because 1 they don't want to have pay to go remove unused/outdated gear, and 2 they don't want anyone else doing it because then it will block competitors from moving in.
Lived in UK and Germany. Visited Cyprus, Albania, Greece, France, Ireland, Italy, and Norway. The cell phone prices and the service, as well as regular phone and internet service in each of those countries sucked goat cock.
Goes a bit back farther than that. Studying globalism in an Economic class. The first round of "globalism" end 12,000 years ago when the last continent was colonized by early man. There have been 5 or so major periods or so since then. We are currently in the middle of one of these transformations. They speculate the next one will be off world. LEO or with another planet. Companies are relocating to Mars to avoid paying taxes and robotic orbital mining in the asteroid belt is destroying the middle class!
Last time I checked most of the rest of the world is a festering shit hole, so you think the best solution is to do it how they do? That is pure genius.
Never understood why they keep going to route of only using some of it. Why bury it. With enough in one spot someone will come up with a better use for it.
What's the problem? I thought that was the whole point for the tree huggers, low fallout and since it is not fossil fuel based, low carbon.
Personally I think the thresh hold for the US to get involved in global stupidity would be threats great enough that a nuclear response in appropriate. (I do have a much lower requirement for nuclear response. Iran, Saudi, Turkey and other muslim terror supporting countries would already have been hit with one.) Glass a city or two, we could even be nice and give them 24 hours notice, with low yield nukes to show we mean business and then use conventional forces to mop up. Otherwise we should stay out of it.
You do realize this is Seattle we are talking about. Burning anything has reams of environmental regulations that must be followed. California had a similar problem while I lived out there 2000-2006. The easiest solution was simply to drive out into the desert at night and dump what ever you were trying to get rid of since they made it such a pain in the ass to dispose of through more reasonable means.
I like that idea too. You wouldn't need anything other than that to get people to drive safely. I like the idea better of just simply making everyone having a mandatory period where the only thing they can ride is a motorcycle before they are allowed to drive something bigger, and then if they break laws are forced back to small bikes. That way they only hurt themselves when they are retarded.
Roads, in just about any modern country, we actually made for cars. Sure there are those foot paths that have been in use for literally thousands of years in places like England, always thought those were pretty cool to use, but the roads these days were bought and paid for by people with vehicles, and that includes most of the foot and bike paths too since the gov'ts tend to lump that all under transportation infrastructure.
I wonder what the pedestrian safety rating for my new all steel armored off-road bumper will be?
Seriously idiots that walk in front of cars should not be encouraged to survive much less breed.
The first jail break on self driving cars will be the software that decides to sacrifice the car and passengers over plowing through a bunch of idiots in the street...."cough Black Lives Matters/student protesters, cough, cough....shit heads who are on their phone and don't look up cough..cough"
We went through all that nonsense in the 70's, 80's, and 90's. It didn't work then and it won't work now.
The funny thing was the arguments that tore it all the various gun control laws down were from the civil rights movement. You can't take someone's rights away even if you pass a law to do it. So thank all those women's, blacks, and gay activists for setting the legal precedence for gutting all the gun control laws in the US.
that is some fucked up logic. That would translate into "I didn't rape those women, I paid them what they were worth after I had (forced)sex with them>"
...or it might have something to do with all the leaders of the Liberal party talking about how we need to do something about gun violence before the bodies are even counted much less cold.
I haven't seen too many NRA ads on TV taking a pro-gun stance but every media outlet has been plastered Obama and the rest of the criminals front and center within hours of each of the recent shootings.
I will never argue about employing prevention, but when it is past that point it's not worth the time, effort, and suffering to save a criminal. You saving both just ends up hurting more people down the road.
Put him in prison now $15,000+ a year goes up in smoke to incarcerate him. Society looses.
Let him out and he goes back to crime what number of people are killed or harmed in the future? Society looses
Put three 9mm center mass and cut our loses. Society is out $.75 and no one else is harmed in the future, no innocent children are created by the criminal only to be victims of the criminals failed life choices and future criminal themselves. Sounds like the best deal to society for me.

Not my fault women and some minorities (Asians and Indians put the white people to shame.) seem to have a hard time with basic math.
Either they are dumb or lazy, which is it? It's not bigotry, math hates everyone equally.
Verses the few thousand runway incursions and near misses between aircraft. Yes those little tiny drones are a really big concern.

You obviously never had a phone in Europe, the rates and phone prices are even worse than the US.

That would be called Socialism or Fascism. That is Communism without the government running all the factories.
Is that why I want to hurt people that try to boss me around?
Never understood why they keep going to route of only using some of it. Why bury it. With enough in one spot someone will come up with a better use for it.
New IT requirement, SCUBA certification.
Lol, no but my hair does get pretty crazy after I take off my motorcycle helmet.

Name one country with both, that is not currently going into the shitter. If you can I'll give you a shinny new penny.
I'm all for it, but the police need to turn in their guns first. After that they can go ask citizens to turn in theirs.
We've been doing this since the 60's and it still doesn't work. Want to end poverty? Stop paying poor people to have children.
