Back in the late 1700s, there was this infamous gang of subversives calling themselves the Founding Fathers. Oh, the things they did. It ended with bloody revolution.
Anyone that profits from anything they did back then should have all their assets seized, it is only right. Let's start with all the politicians.
When you overthrow the government you too will be able to say what is and isn't treason.
Hopefully, election day will be a beautiful sunny day. I would like to spend it playing tennis. Pity the fool that wastes it in an American voting booth. Pretending they participate in representative democracy.
I think Ford are closing plants all over the place. Their sales are weaker in the USA and China too, which is absolutely nothing to do with Brexit, although Brexit is a wonderful excuse for useless executives to hang their poor performance on.
Wish I had mod points for that. It's the oldest human excuse, "It was anyone, anything but me"
As a whole, the country paid more than it got back. Scientists, on the other hand, got a "good" deal.
Though it certainly did come with a lot of strings attached. Leaving aside the fact that all scientists became paid lobbyists for the EU, much of that "research" money had to be spent on specific things, such as travel and meetings, and all of the "research" that was actually carried out had to be done in accordance with the EU's rules, which were mainly focused on the production of detailed status reports known as "work packages". An EU-funded research project would produce a tonne of paperwork, lots of office politics, and very little actual science.
Sort of like most bureaucratic organizations. It's not surprising the same thing happens on this side of the pond.
I will make an observation, those at the top of the food chain on both sides aren't the best at advancing science but rather navigating the politics of their respective funding bodies and insuring compliance with minutiae of bureaucracy.
Those are the same people that will be out in the cold with Brexit. Not surprising they would be upset.
Hillary Obstructed Boko Haram's Terror Designation as Her Donors Cashed In In January 2015, I was one of the first to report on a massive massacre by Nigerian terror group Boko Haram in Borno State in northwest Nigeria, with reportedly thousands killed. Witnesses on the ground reported that bodies littered the landscape for miles as towns and villages had been burned to the ground, their populations murdered or fled.
And yet, as Boko Haram began to ramp up its terror campaign in 2011 and 2012, Hillary Clinton obstructed the official terror designation of the group over the objections of Congress, the FBI, the CIA and the Justice Department.
Nice deflection onto Bush. I gotta ask how is he running for office again and what the hell makes you think it absolves her sins.

I am sorry but that's a fight where one side knows what the game is,and how to play while the other likely can't even guess where to look for the rules.
Well, this isn't enough for me to sit by and watch the Paris climate agreement get crumpled up by Cheeto Jesus. I'm voting for her but I still fucking hate her.
Oh that's funny. That climate accord will just be another cash cow for her if she gets in office.
A big part of the singularity logic is that you will have technological feedback that keeps increasing the power of tech till it reaches unrecognizable levels.
If you are looking at 2030 for the singularity, there no matter how you slice it there isn't going to be that exponential growth from traditional hardware driving it.

Y'know what else was treason?

It was delicious.
Seem surprisingly willing to push Frankenpeople.
Oh well the U.S. also pioneered eugenics but was left in the dust by European nations and that worked out well.
In the 90s if I told you, your monitor cable would enforce DRM, you would have thought me mad.
This frog is being boiled slowly, but boiled nonetheless.
Every Data transaction has to be traceable back to a certificate authority. Every program can be deauthorized from a central authority.
Ghostbusters as a counter example ?
Then again that was an example of critics trying to tell the audience they were bad people for not liking a steaming pile of poop

Well you are welcome to that.
The absentee ballot is my friend.
Speaking of that I really wish I had a list of all the people here who went around saying the U.S. would never be self sufficient in petroleum

And what does popularism get you? A deep and long depression, unemployment and no less immigrants.
Crystal ball ??
How long has that depression of the U.K.'s manufacturing sector been going on ?

It's a gas. I am laughing I hadn't switched before.
Once again how does this absolve her of any sin ?

You know this is going to be nothing but a blamefest there, Odds on the wicked witch will have flying monkeys coming out her ass.

Yeah it's a sad day in America when we need the Russians to expose our corruption.
Because the Media and the Justice System won't do their damn jobs.

Lawyers don't even believe in representing themselves, so when you say plenty just what is that percentage ?
Here's an example of what happens when you don't know what you are doing involving the law

It's almost always more expensive and damaging than any settlement or plea bargain you might reach.
Here's a citation.
The woman, whose name has not been disclosed, said that when the allegations became public she received threats and found it impossible to work.
She said that she was judged in a "gigantic court of public opinion with anonymous judges and witnesses who guessed wildly".
Just how did anyone know who this "Un Disclosed" woman was to threaten her ?
Have a little fucking skepticism. Your brain is more than just dead weight to keep your head in place.
This kind of accusation is usually BS to frame politically dangerous people.
Um. No. Seriously and respectfully ask some of your female friends what kind of misconduct they've experienced in the workplace. You may be amazed.
No seriously check up on the scams that this has been used to pull. YOU!! May be amazed.
