    No. they *really* didn't.

    ITs funny how Trump keeps smacking the Russians in the teeth yet still the braindead so-called Liberals keep claiming he's actually in cahoots with Putin.

    I totally agree, but the truth wouldn't be half as sensational.

    Didn't you already know that drama always beats facts these days, especially if you're a Democrat.

    I actually wasn't thinking about intelligence specifically. I was intending to mean bad genetic traits/mutations are now being allowed to propagate that cavemen would have just died early of without ever being able to breed.

  6. Of course. That's business. The most successful companies are always trying to wangle a better deal for themselves. As long as there is one remaining worker that will put up with such crap conditions, there will be some company that keeps trying it on.

    The real people to blame are the employees who just silently bend over and take whatever the management throws at them without ever daring to group together and stand up for themselves. Is unionizing not even an option there?

  7. I was being sarcastic.

    ...since natural selection is actually the mechanism for evolution, yet society has totally undermined it with its ongoing mission to remove even the slightest possible risk to humans. It also mandates that even the most unsuitable people banging out kids as fast as they can is supposed to be celebrated by all.

    Black Friday is all about the stores clearing shelves of old crap that wont sell. Of course there isn't any quality stuff in there.

  13. Please show me exactly what part of the constitution says cops shouldn't uphold the law whenever that happens to involve illegal immigrants?
    "illegal" clearly means something like "whatever I happen to feel is right" to you nonsensical snowflake liberals.

    No he wasn't. Get a fucking clue.

  15. I don;t mind that someone has different opinions, actually I welcome the debate. What I find amusing is someone pretending to be a big man and sniping personal attacks, but actually not having enough balls to even use their actual username.

  19. Even your own reference of US gas prices shows a continuous downslope since 2012. from over $3.50 to about $2/gallon
    Yes I am ignoring fossil fuel subsidies just like I'm ignoring the massive EV subsidies, because what matters to the end useris how much they are actually paying out of their own pcoket.
    As for your ridiculous assertion that the US military is in the Middle East and Afghanistan entirely for gas prices, thats just laughable.

  20. > But the cost of gasoline is going to keep rising.

    Please cite references. That seems unlikely at best. Keep rising? its not even rising now.

    Besides, the price difference between the cheapest EV (chevvy spark $27,495) and the cheap small car Nissan Versa S Sedan: $12,780 even at $3/gallon is 5886 gallons of gas (assuming $2.50/gallon), which is for that car represents 206010 miles of motoring, i.e the price difference is more than the cost of gas for the entire life of the car. Futhermore the chevvy spark has a range of 85 miles. The Nissa Versa about 400. That alone would be enough to put many people off.

  21. I agree that EV's are ultimately inevitable but we are a long way from them being financially viable yet if you look at big picture, not just the running costs once you've bought one. The purchasing cost premium for EV's vs a cheap gasoline car is still way too high.

    At $1100, I just don't care. Its about $500 more than I've ever paid for any phone that I've ever owned, including my Galaxy S8, and as far as I can tell, it doesn't do anything more or better. Actually if anything it seems worse in several areas. https://www.wired.com/story/ha...

    Its not new form at all. Resource depletion has always been and still is exactly what decides which side wins wars, ever since since the beginning of time.

    Usually the resource is money in the form of superior tech and sheer volume of supplies, and just the size of your mass of people that are prepared to line up and be cannon-fodder.

    PErfect example is how the Soviets took back Stalingrad in WW2. The Nazis were encircled and firing 1200 rounds a minute from each of hundreds of strategically placed and dug-in MG42 belt-fed machine guns, at a never-ending surge of Russians that had one bolt-action rifle and 6 bullets between every 2 soldiers, yet the Russians still won.

  25. 1) Thats with the agreement of the other country.
    2) The Japanese had no way of definitively knowing it didn;t have a nuclear payload on board.
    3) Nothing is perfect, even including a remote detonation device.
