If there's ever a country we can say, "they I bad [sic]", North Korea is the one. And it's not just because they have the Korean version of Chris Griffin running the place.
I believe there's one in Spain, but it's also in the sunniest region of the country, and pretty much helped bankrupt the country building it (along with other types of solar power plants).
STOP right there. The least sunny city in Australia, Perth, still has hundreds of hours more sunlight than temperate US cities like Philadelphia. Seoul is comparable to Perth in sunshine with about 2,400 hours a year, so in this particular case it might work. But I believe I've answered your question, "why does anyone need nuclear power?"
You are quite the ignoramus. The King wanted native Americans to be equal? He had them killed in nice numbers when they fought against him the French and Indian war. The King wanted taxes from the colonists without giving them representation in Parliament. A child in public school knows this was one of the major reasons.
By the way, the Constitution was already USA v2.0. 1.0 hadn't worked well.
Even THEY knew they would get some things wrong... that's why you can amend the Constitution.
Leftists aren't interested in changing the Constitution. It takes too long and requires a vast majority of agreement. If they were serious, the AHCA would have been a Constitutional amendment, because it takes away the default right of the people to choose whether they buy health insurance, whether they go to a doctor, whether they get vaccines, etc.
No, the difference is between the tyranny of monarchies or oligarchies versus a democratic republic. In a democratic republic, treason is literally defined in our Constitution, the law of the land. In most other forms of government, treason is whatever the people in charge say it is.
A neocon is a kind of moderate, by definition. They're the folks who would have been mid-20th century "liberals", but they hold conservative ideas like low taxation and religious freedom. I'm also puzzled as to why you think a Catholic "must" be this or that, when we have Rick Santorum on one end, JFK and Bill O'Reilly somewhere in the middle (yes, he is) and Nancy Pelosi on the other.
As an American, I will shamefully explain why this kind of thing would work here. First of all, I have noticed a big uptick in the number of people with conservative political affiliations who have an irrational distrust and hatred for governments in general and the US government in particular. Such people do not know anything about due process
OK... so your contention is that conservatives don't know about due process? I think most do quite well... indeed, they complain about anything that appears even slightly unconstitutional. Or are you saying that only left-wing people know about due process?
and they believe every negative story they hear about "big government". They'll easily believe that the FBI would contact people this way.
... and they would believe it was illegal, and either disregard it or report it to their local authorities, knowing it was a violation of their rights.
Your post just sounds like another awkward attempt to awkwardly shoehorn a political opinion into an unrelated discussion.
Had to look it up in the dictionary! That was almost as embarrassing as when I got the decimal point in the wrong place. I always miss mundane details.
Imagine a law that we had to wear license plates around our necks. Would that now mean that we have no expectation of privacy wherever we walked? If you claim that such a law would not be allowed, why?
The issue is not the privacy of the plate, which is state property anyway. The issue is the privacy of the person(s) inside.
1. Limited resources. We only have so many public funds to support public safety and law enforcement. I would rather it all be focused on areas of known or likely crime.
2. The principle of limited government. In the USA, we still have the tenuous idea (opposed by the progressives) that governments have only the rights we give them. Police may not form policies and expend funds on ubiquitous surveillance unless we pass laws (at state or local levels) that give them that right. There are everyday, internal polices (like vehicle maintenance, hiring, salary, etc.) that would be unreasonable for the people to micromanage, but clearly a major change in police policy like moving focus from targeted enforcement to general surveillance is dangerous to human rights.
How would you like it if the company you worked for made a mistake, and the victim sued YOU for it? That's what happens when you don't have a corporation.
Then stop giving money to organizations like the Tides foundation, people. You keep listening to these oligarchs because they promise you will have freedom and security, but I'll you'll get is disenfranchisement under global governance.
The best defenses against scams are still the same: 1. Knowing your right to due process, and 2. Knowing proper spelling and grammar in your native language.
I'm continually dismayed that large numbers of people (possessing enough intelligence to use a web browser) don't realize that the FBI using email or popups to demand summary payment of "fines" without due process is implausible and illegal.
People who flip burgers should strive to perform more rewarding work than flipping burgers forever. If they are mentally or physically limited, or elderly, we're already taking care of them. If they're mentally and physically able, we can't have blanket sympathy for what could be a lack of ambition.
The "penalty cards" might be a step toward resolving the issue. I don't know what's on the green cards, though. I would have to say that if I received a green card for professionally communicating with a female, I would find it highly condescending. Please hand me your business card instead.

Protecting your own life is not a privilege. It, along with liberty and property, is a basic human right.
It is fallacious to presume that an argument is invalid because it comes from someone you dislike, even if they appear hypocritical. Truth is truth.

Obama and the 2010 Democrat-controlled Congress already slashed 700 billion from Medicare. Fact.

Because they're in the employ of the state.

Sorry, no cottonwood trees on Mars. And the view of the stars is usually pretty lousy with all that dust.

BTW, I was wondering how many SAM installations the Taliban currently control... or any terrorists, for that matter.
I do have to admit that January 2012 is a rather short timeline for anyone not named Doc Brown.

Anyone whose ambition stops at flipping burgers to support his family doesn't deserve a family.

No, they aren't. Once you buy the relatively expensive drive, you can add terabyte after terabyte of storage for a pittance.
