When you run out of SOMEBODY ELSE'S MONEY to give away.
This won't work, it hasn't worked and it will NEVER work. "oh, but we are just getting it from the rich"
Yeah, and they will flee the states, countries that have this, and hide their money elsewhere.
What RIGHT does someone else have with someone else's property? I think these people that come up
with this garbage should allow these people to live in their homes a while, or, take THEIR money and give
it away.
NO! Tell the lazy butts to get up and work!
Bet the lines outside the apple stores have started.
Overpriced, over hyped, over powered. Not just Apple, Samsung as well.
Oh well, that's the nice thing about CHOICE. Not my money if you want to
waste it on stuff like that.
Man, can you image Steve Jobs looking at a SIX INCH iPhone and complaining?
You don't need a screen THAT big he said years ago.
The UN has wanted capitalism to fail, and wants all the nation states to fail, so they can
swoop in and be "the new world order" and "one world government".
THAT ain't gonna happen, ever!
Holy crap!
I haven't used AT commands since I got rid of my external modem in the dial up internet
days. Started with a 2400bps, then 9600, 33k, and 56k. When I went to 1.5meg DSL then
to a whopping 3-6 meg, thought it couldn't get any better LOL.
AT commands...there's a walk down memory lane!
For one thing he "broke the law"...this was a gun free zone. See how stupid THAT is?
Then, the next thing, you will find this lDIOT was: a loner, no social skills, anti social,
keeps to himself, few friends, an outsider, quick temper and on and on.
But no...let's just make this about guns, how evil they are, how we need to have a serious
conversation, rub our hands together, and have a few candle light protests.
This kid, from what I have found, won last year, became upset because he lost, blamed someone
else, then got mad, went out and got his gun. You can bet if he didn't have the gun, he probably
would have used his car.
I'll bet, once the smoke clears, you'll find he's another kid that was raised that he can't do anything
wrong, coddled by his parents, given participation trophies his entire life, never told no, got into
video games at a young age, stayed to himself. Once things unraveled, he couldn't handle it.
No, this was not about the gun, the gun was just the tool. Had it not been available, and had some
people been able to LEGALLY carry into this place their weapon, perhaps this would not happen.
He probably would have used his car, bat, club or something else.
Another spoiled brat, that took his own life because he couldn't "man up" and accept responsibility.
I started watching in year 6, then went back to watch the first 5, which I thought were funnier.
As with any LONG running series, the writers run out of ideas, the actors of the show probably get
in a rut, and if it wasn't for the insane salaries they are getting, probably would have booked a few
years ago. The "big 3" actors, will probably have a harder time finding meaningful work in the tv
industry as they are typecast. The "new girlfriends" probably won't have a hard time, as will the
other minor characters. The show lost it's edge & appeal when the nerds all got girlfriends/wives.
A series is usually doomed, when you start introducing babies into it.
Time to end the series and wrap it up.
I just hope, the producers, on the last scene, hopefully have them moving out of the building and,
as they get ready to walk out the door, they hear a DING from the elevator and it opens up.
If the job is THAT crappy...QUIT! Go find another job somewhere else, where the working conditions are better. It's a WAREHOUSE job. Most of this outrage about the working conditions, is just a vain attempt by the unions, to garner favor, to unionize the entire Amazon system, which would in effect, kill it.
Don't like a job? QUIT. Oh, what's that? You are in your late 20's or older, and the ONLY job you are "qualified" for is a warehouse job or minimum wage? Who's fault is that?
They are touting this as "for safety" I'll bet. But, once they work out the bugs, look for mandated NFC, bluetooth or some other ID device on EVERY vehicle. If it can detect the vehicle speed, just think of the unlimited revenue stream for speeding vehicles.
Or, detecting if a vehicle license plate/registration/driver license is expired. Oh just think of the possibilities.
Sniffers to detect pollution, someone talking on the phone, eating a hamburger, all sorts of thinks government could use to bilk consumers out of...of course, all in the name of "safety".
Crock of mule fritters!
But, don't let the liberal press, socialist, and other non capitalist tell you that.
These companies built the internet connections, it's a business and they should run it.
The government should butt out!
But, that being said, I DO NOT, and NEVER have liked any "tax breaks" for ANY corporation.
Blame local, state, & federal government, eager to get "them here" so they can crow about it
come election time. It's CRONY capitalism, and it stinks!
No tax breaks for ANY company, I don't care who they are. Pay the way and stop putting it
on the backs of everyone else!
I remember working 911...I started doing it in the very early 80's. By the late 90's/early 2000's everything was down on a CAD screen (computer aided dispatch). I mean everything! Maps, phone logs/calls, dispatch, directory, records checks...everything. Once, the CAD system went down, myself and a few "old timers" pulled out the orange cards I made up years ago. The only reason they were orange was when I made up the card, to mimic our 1st gen computer dispatch screen entry layout, all I had to print up a few samples, was orange paper, so the print shop figured we wanted them all on orange paper LOL.
So we pull these cards out and tell everyone to use the cards. It was like speaking in a foreign language...dead silence, mouth open from the "kids".
During the outage, one says I don't know where this address/location is. I said get out the map...THAT in itself was a Kodak moment....a map? but...but...but...I don't know how to read a map.
If you don't have someone that knows the OLD way of doing something, when technology fails, and it does happen, everything grinds to a hault!
Go look at the SUN data since man has been looking at it. From the 1600's, you can pretty much lay the temperature changes, with relation to the sunspot cycle. In periods of "calm" due to no or very little sunspot activity, along with low to moderate CME ejections, the weather patterns change. In periods of high sunspot activity & high CME ejections, the weather patterns globally change. The Medieval maximum, the global average temperatures were on par or higher than they are today. Now how in the hockey sticks was man responsible for that?
During the 90's, the era of "Algore" hysteria, happened to parallel what is called the modern maximum, during solar cycles 22-23ish. It was called "man made" because they were able to play on people's fear of NOT KNOWING the science of the temperature patterns and how people see "history". Pretty much, your view of history, starts when you are born. It's "never" been this good/bad". Plus, they use "shady" climate data. Data from temperature stations on roof tops, with black tar paper, near airports, etc. And, using 4, 5, 10,20 years worth of "data" to stay trends indicate....10-20 years worth of data? In relation to the age of the Earth, which is how many millions or billions of years old?
Nope, it's all hysteria, playing on the fear of people, to get the "haves" to give up to the "have nots" or in this case, to bring capitalism down, bring up more global control over everything and make the entire world miserable under a "new world order" to quote a-hole George Bush (41).
A lot, but not all of the youth today, have no manners or respect, and, some think they are "owed" something.
How difficult is it, to just contact them, and say, sorry, I've gotten a job with X, or I have changed my mind?
I've had people we've hired just not show up and it took days to contact them and they would say I got a better
job, or I changed my mind. In the past 10 years, that's only happened twice.
Their names are obviously FLAGGED that if they ever walk in again, looking for a job, they will politely be showed
the door.
Don't like it? Quit and start your OWN company.
No one said life is fair, no how many times your indoctrination instructors in school told you.
Yes, it's not right that a owner of a company makes that much, but life isn't fair. The quicker
you figure that out, the EASIER life will be.
Socialism just brings down the achievers to the level of the non achievers, with the RULING CLASS
the only ones with any wealth.
After you graduate, you'll most likely be a "ward of the government" and required to work where
THEY tell you to work, until THEY feel you've paid back what it cost to train you.
THAT means, you'll be assigned to a slum area, or high crime area.
Driving one of these, which, is what would happen if you were silly enough to take one out of
a small town environment. On the highway, you'd get squished like a bug!
If you get it from the likes of ABC, CBS, NBC, PBS, MSNBC, CNN, FOX on the TV
side, and NY Times, Washington Post, Washington Times etc.
It's all propaganda, depending on your political views.
I graduated HS in the late 70's. We didn't have any of that crap.
But for the last 20-30 years, the indoctrination centers called government schools, have
been feeding these kids the dictate that capitalism is bad, socialism is good, America is
terrible and on and on.
So, it's no surprise to me, that a poll would reflect that.
Lenin once said something to the effect if you give me the mind of a youth, the seeds I
plant will never be undone. Or something like that.
Well, how about we put some WEED KILLER on those plants!
