even after the Affordable Care Act, millions of poor Americans will remain uninsured because governors, mainly Republicans, have refused to expand Medicaid
Because $6,700 is real chump change. I know families where both parents work for at least 40 hours a week, and they have outstanding medical bills of just a few thousand dollars that they can't pay. Racking up $6,700 a year, plus the few hundred a month, is only going to make things worse.
This is absolutely NOT helping the people who the administration claimed it would.
Conservatives like to often bring up that we are a republican [sic], not a democracy. Part of the reason is they never met a poly sci class they could pass, but the other reason i'm sure is they somehow want to equate the name of their party, "republican," as somehow innately better because it's named after what our founders called our form of government.
Because of the way the world of politics and government has evolved, there are multiple types of democracy now. One of those types is a "representative democracy," which is what we have. It is the same thing as a "constitutional republic."
So what you're saying is that we DO have a republic. Thanks for clearing that up.
The value of the assets don't matter as much as what you get out of them. A Bentley is not a greater asset as a commuter vehicle than a Ford Focus just because it is worth more.
No, it won't. The coal rights will be purchased by the remaining companies. This can't be done without government intervention-- prohibiting anyone from using that coal. That's the dirty secret.
Are you kidding? The USA already spent NINETY BILLION on solar in A SINGLE FISCAL YEAR and several of the companies (solyndra, A123, etc.) went belly-up anyway.
You forgot to mention that the huge costs over the initial $50 billion-- the "write offs" they hand-wave away in the article-- will be put on the backs of middle-class taxpayers.
Wait-- you have 20 TB of data, yet are complaining about expense? That's far above the media requirements for home storage. You're in enterprise territory. Fast, reliable, or cheap: pick any two. Since reliability is not negotiable for backups, you have two options.
Buy an LTO autoloader and tapes. This will cost about $3,500-4,000. You may also need to buy backup software for another few hundred dollars. You'll be able to back it all up within a day, and backup new files in minutes.
Buy the Crashplan unlimited home service, buy the seed drive service to get the first few hundred GB started, and you'll be set in a few days to a week.

This statement was modded up +4.
Slashdot moderators have absolutely no intellectual honesty.
In other news, scientists have found that everyone you disagree with is, in fact, just as bad as Hitler.
It's in the 9th.
"The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people."
Just admit you used a fallacious straw man argument and move on.
The logical fallacies are strong with this one.
According to Paul Krugman, you're a right-wing shill!

So you see every article that might possibly be critical of any tiny facet of the current Administration to be a work of supposed right-wing radicals?
You're part of the problem.
So you're telling me that Feinstein and Obama are protecting Ted Nugent, a b-list right-wing celebrity? You are mentally ill.
I love watching two wrong people argue over who is wronger. *grabs popcorn*

It's pathetic that you would even dare to compare Thatcher to Stalin.
It's no wonder why you people now live under an oppressive surveillance state.

But BROKEN WINDOWS!
$1 a watt... at how many sq. cm.? Density matters, unless you're planning on covering every square meter of the planet.
That's what statists say. But they don't offer any solutions for the people who will freeze to death next winter.
No, it won't. The coal rights will be purchased by the remaining companies. This can't be done without government intervention-- prohibiting anyone from using that coal. That's the dirty secret.
It won't be, once some guy starts buying up a bunch of the companies.

It was a joke...
The whole idea of an easy and cheap backup for an edge case like 20 TB of home date is a joke.
READY.
SAVE "20TB
PRESS RECORD AND PLAY ON TAPE
SAVING 20TB

READY.

20TB? Probably need a lot of friends... and we're talking geeks here.
