Or they want a unified user experience rather than the clusterfuck of UI experiences there are for the different versions
Find the control panel and burrow down to one of the admin tools to go through the full range of the clusterfuck of UI experiences still present on Win10. There's still a bit of NT 3.51 lurking inside. Based on that, does your suggestion make any sense at all?
Sorry to reply again, but I'd argue that the Mafia actually got worse when they landed in prohibition era US - plus it's worth reading books like "Gangs of New York" and a similarly titled one on New Orleans to see what was going on before they turned up. They thrived in an environment that was already corrupt. The FBI insisting the Mafia did not exist, among other things (the OSS and the CIA HIRED them at times in the 1950s FFS) led to their longevity so I think using the longevity of the Mafia as a argument against immigration is a bit strange.
Yes but my point was that most of the population of the United States and a pile of other places was built by "importing too many at once" of Irish, Germans, Norwegians, Polish, Italians, Vietnamese etc. Also the number of Muslims imported at once fades into insignificance in comparison the the number of Roman Catholics coming in at the same time from Central America. That's why I was so dismissive. You can choose to disagree but it looks a lot like business as usual instead of any sort of threat to me - especially since they are coming because they want want America offers instead of the values of the people they are fleeing from.
Also - why get so angry over an opinion? I'm in a place where the local government does not collect income tax so your ALWAYS doesn't apply, and I'm suggesting that tiny local governments collecting tax is a major part of the problem anyway. Due to political corruption I've lived in an area where the roads went from paved to dirt at the boundary which on reason why I think about the stupidity of uneven infrastructure - I've experienced it.
Don't get hung up on tiny little bits of tax law that vary from place to place when the big picture is rotting away. The simple fact is very rich states have pockets of very poorly funded infrastructure - abandoned due to an "I've got mine" approach and areas that don't really need the extra tax money spending it on sculptures and mayors on $1million+ per year for a suburb of 25,000 people. It's a fast track to the third world. Does it help you if your lovely house is two blocks away from a shithole where the police never go?
I'm just pointing out that he is a guy with "interesting" views and is "picking and choosing" what he wants to believe. I've had many arguments like yours with him (starting with how because he's an "engineer" he knows that hot steel doesn't go soft and buildings don't fall down in fires) and it all went around in a very strange loop. His sig describing himself as an engineer makes us all look bad.
I needed a Democrat to head off accusations of bias and some people here really hate him for some reason. You would not believe the ridiculous venom filled reaction of dozens of posts when I wrote an offhand mention of him being a nuclear engineering officer on a sub. Apparently it's far better to bribe terrorists like Reagan than it is the attempt to fight them like Carter.
Then look on wikileaks if you want the fine details as I pointed out above and perhaps use a google search to narrow it down. You'll learn far more and find it more interesting than if I just pointed to links of news articles from that time where nearly every major news outlet on the planet carried the story, but here's one of many if you want a quick and broad answer: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1333920/WikiLeaks-Hillary-Clinton-ordered-U-S-diplomats-spy-UN-leaders.html
But I also believe that people like Rumsfeld, Powel etc knew that sunni/shea war was the most likely endgame and that taking out Iraq was regionally destabilizing
And going by past performance they wouldn't give a shit if they knew. Rumsfeld "destabilized" the US military TWICE. It had barely recovered before he came back and tried to cut back on anything that made the difference between professional soldiers and mindless warriors. Thankfully he was far too incompetent to accomplish it.
With respect anything less than a full refinery does no cracking at all. There are two main things going on - distillation to separate out the stuff you want, which can be done on crude, and cracking so that you can later distill out MORE of what you want.
Distillation sorts by weight in this case.
Cracking breaks up big heavy chains, oil that doesn't flow very well, into shorter chains.
So if you are prepared to put up with a lot of waste, just like was usual a century ago, a refinery can be distillation only.
And driving the competition, mostly new US shale oil startups, out of business - deliberately. Nice "allies" aren't they? Add in their funding of Daash/ISIL and a bunch of others.
Yes, but nibbling at the problem with very little resources at the local level when the state can afford an effective response seems a bit "feudal" (and futile) to me. The dead heart of so many US cities looks like a weird artifact of boundaries of revenue collection. Economies of scale and reduced duplication could do the job without sucking more money out of the taxpayer. Do you really need a Mayor on $1million+ per year for a suburb of 25,000 people?
You are acting as if Horse Judges and the spook that called in a set designer to do up his office like Star Trek are not calling the shots. Yes, the experts said that allowing the sunni/shea divide to increase by having only one side in charge of everything was very bad news. They were not listened to - hence the consequences. You knew this. I knew this. Every grunt on the ground in the middle east knew this. The spooks on the political fast track dismissed it out of hand as not their problem. Remember that they didn't even see the Arab spring coming? Do you think they suddenly got superpowers, or even basic competence, in the time since?
Easier to funnel money out of a large department than a small:( Some years back there was a satirical Japanese style comic written in the US called "Dirty Pair" where the protagonists worked for a bunch called the "Worlds Welfare Works Association" - which was a massive Uber department mostly focussed on giving people pointless security jobs and fucking up massively on many occasions. It looked a lot like what "Homeland Security" became. The TSA alone bleeds so much money in the direction of political cronies for fake scanners that who knows what that money could be doing. FEMA should have been by itself and run by someone who understood it's function instead of a Horse Judge.
Why should animal and plant inspectors be run by someone with Immigration and Naturalization experience?
The funny thing is with school excursions to the rifle range when I was a kid it was, even if it wasn't official and even though most kids had already learned how to shoot.
I contend, we — the Western world — are allowing in too many immigrants at once. Which leads to us becoming more like them, instead of them assimilating among us.
what makes it stand out so much that you are the guy picking and choosing what you want to believe
Ask him about the plane that crashed into the pentagon on 9/11 and you'll get some insight. Apparently we need all those guns to stop the government faking plane crashes and murdering hundreds to cover it up.
There may have been newspaper articles, books and even a hollywood movie with a star studded cast (Syriana - 2005), but a lot of people didn't notice until Snowden.

Typo - should be "want what America offers" instead of a repeated want.

Yes I learned that Hoover was on the take.

Are you serious? Go ask your Dad.

If you don't care about cracking the heavy stuff it's not so difficult to only distill out the light stuff - very wasteful but you get something.

Nuts are the problem and it is very easy for them to get guns.
Do you disagree?
It's not really what used to fit the bill as terrorism, homegrown or not
Sitting Bull said something like that.
