Take this a step further Basically, it is NOT private owned. It is uncertain who owns it. So, not only is the CEO a top person of the communist party, but it turns out so are the other executives. This IS Air America.
Capitalism != form of gov.
And high economic growth is trivial when you manipulate money, move from 90 trade barriers to over 400, put up trade barriers to EXPORTS of resources, put up tarrifs on other resources, heavily subsidize, control 3/4 of your economy via communism and set the wages MUCH lower than what even the partially western owned companies must pay, and then dump on foreign markets.
The real trick is how is Chinese communist gov. going to deal with the multiple bubbles that are popping now.
Parts of it really were needed. The fact is that AQ shifts all over the net and phones. Heck, they have even quit encrypting since it points directly at them and allows us the ability to know where to look. Our earlier laws were made for a much slower time.
The real issue with Patriot act is that it has been applied far more liberally than it was intended. In fact, it has been mostly used to go after drug dealers, gangs, etc more so then it has been against true terrorists such as AQ. Worse is that we say that we give them the ability to look everywhere, but they are not suppose to use that data for anything EXCEPT for catching terrorists. But that has not been the case. That is why we need REAL limits, scope, and governance on this.
Sadly, I agree with you 100%.
That is why we need 2 new amendments:
1) a balanced budget amendment. It should be a weak on in which a deficit can be ran IFF 55% of both houses and the president agree. HOWEVER, upon running a deficit and not having approval, then the deficit needs to be automatically dropped 20% and continues each year by that amount, unless congress goes lower or approves more deficits. By making it weak, it should prevent a single party from doing what is being done today. By doing automatic cuts across the board, it will make congress either work together or be forced to take responsibility.
2) a term-limits on federal congress. 12 years total max in either house. That means possible 6 terms in the house and 2 terms in the senate. In addition, they get public funding for THEIR elections. No other money is allowed to them. However, PACS will be allowed, of which all money that flows to them must be published. If a penny comes to them anonymously, then it is put into kitty for public funding. In addition, only REGISTERED VOTERS are allowed to put money into PACS (though anybody can contribute to public funding kitty). The registered voter will have a max that they can give to a single PAC and a max to all pacs. All political parties are converted into a PACs, of which they can ONLY use the money on their own candidates.
With the above 2 amendments, we get our nation back. Right now, America is a laughing stock thinking that US citizens are backing much of US laws and actions.
Cisco actually has equipment here that is manufactured here for sale to various groups of the USA. I would guess that they also sell to EU gov. as well. The feds SHOULD put a requirement that all of the equipment for backbones and TLAs be required to have all equipment manufactured in friendly nations that have decent oversight. It does not have to be in America, but, it needs to occur in NATO nations, Australia, Japan, etc. And even Japan and Australia have some lacks security issues that will need to be solved first.
Patriot act is a NIGHTMARE. Parts of it were needed, but it was obviously designed to allow the feds far more abilities than was needed. And the lack of oversight on it is just amazing. Personally, I was shocked and disgusted that Obama did not at least put more leashes on it. OTH, I expected such behavior out of W, Cheney, and Rumsfeld. In fact, for that group, I expected far worse. My guess is that they KNEW that they could not get by with worse than what they had.
HOWEVER, the fact that my gov. spies on me, does not mean that I want a nation whose gov. sees itself as being in a cold war with the west, spying on any nation in the west, let alone ours. Sadly, there are plenty of idiots, like lkcl, whom do not recognize the difference, nor understand the implications.
Under W, large amount of tax breaks were put in place. However, they actually encouraged offshoring. At the same time, other tax changes were put in place that made it easy for companies like Google, MS, Apple, etc to shift profits offshore. This needs to stop.
How did you get modded up? If we do wiretapping of telecom networks ESP. SECURED networks, in another nation, that would be called.... SPYING. And NO nation sees that as being legal.
Not surprised. Just like the 'Chinese success', it is all predicated on constant lies and deceptions. But considering that Huawei is Chinese gov (in fact, more Chinese gov, than America Air was US Gov). In fact, unless a company has outside participation, it is 100% owned AND MANAGED by the gov.
Not sure about that, but all major nuke sites store 'waste' fuel on-site. By creating small IFRs, it would be possible to burn it up and use it for fuel.
The did not make one comment. He had an insight from working at amazon for 6 year and google for another 6 years. And the insight was DEAD ON.
As a user of G+, I am frustrated to no end with it. It really does not go far enough. In fact, I have made multiple suggestions on that to them over the last 3 months, along with other ones. However, if they implemented a nice API, I would have coded the other suggestions.
Now, the difference between you and me, is that I have seen what he has been saying for the last few months. As I said, his posting SHOULD be posted around there and perhaps at other companies.
OTH, it is obvious that your lack of insight and knowledge of companies and going ons, is obvious.
Create small IFRs for putting on-site. Seriously, once a power plant is taken down, then a new one should be put up, and it should be an IFR. All that it should do is burn up the 'waste'. This approach would allow us to use what we have.
Seriously, HP would be better off bringing back manufacturing to the states and getting control of their pipelines. By doing what IBM, and Dell did, they will see that they lose the ability to compete with Chinese companies that simply steal the tech and idea. However, if HP brings it back, they gain control.

Basically, it is a can that is carried in the 'cargo bay'. With the shuttle, you had two different areas. This is actually a better design from a functional POV. One craft that can carry different types of cargo.
Any place that can help this child, will either ask for money up front, or announce that they are giving a scholarship. My guess is that any of the ivy leagues will be VERY happy to take this child and will come up with a scholarship for them.
This is an issue the world OVER. Few schools in the world are geared for such kids. The best thing is to contact the ivy league schools, esp. any known for education (brown?) and see what they say.
Seriously, this is killing America. A friend of mine has something innovative for iPhones, droids and tablets. Great idea. He was going to produce in America. Then met with somebody that has a manufacturing company in China and talked him out of it. Basically, pointed out that he is going to trade doing cheap chinese manufacturing for free distribution channels to Walmart, Sams, Costco, K-Mart, etc. Basically, all of these large retail companies are simply fronts for Chinese manufacturing companies.
If we really want innovation, then we need to get manufacturing going again here, and have access to these retail stores.
I have never been in an earthquake, but I have been in numerous tornadoes. Back in the 60's we did not have alarms. Now that we have them, it is useful to be woken at night to head down. The tornado warnings HAS saved a number of lives. I can only imagine that the same would be true of Earthquakes.
Many nations will simply skip that part. Instead, they will chose to not do it and grab as much manufacturing as possible. THat is a losing proposition along the lines of cap-n-trade. By USA applying a tax on this AND applying it to ALL GOODS, it levels the playing field. Basically, every nation that invests into tech that lowers emissions, will then get a lower tax rate. In addition, as we have seen with China, they have gone from a low polluter back in the 60s, to not only being the largest polluter, but in less than 8 more years, will account for more than 1/2 of all CO2 that man has EVER emitted. That is huge. But what is actually growing it, is success. Once a nation becomes successful, their emissions will rise.So, with this tax, it is a feed-back mechanism to tell that nation to lower it. Basically, cap-n-trade, tax it at the ground, has the same issues: it creates unlevel playing fields and will actually encourage companies to move to where the regs/tax is not, and then make things WORSE.
America needs a tax on ALL GOODS, imported and local produced. It should be on CO2 emissions from where the final and largest sub-component come from. It should be a % of a total tax. If your item comes from a low or none CO2 emission nation/state, then you have no real tax. If it comes from a high, then you get most of the tax.
One of the right ways to do this, is to make it be CO2 PER SQ KM of land. Not per capita. Per capita does not take into account a number of issues (economic output, ag, etc). Neither does sq km, but it comes closer.

You mean this former Chinese military engineer that RETIRED and is a prominent member of the chinese communist party? Chinese gov. CONTROLS Huawei
