UK has removed all of the other freedoms from the people there. Why not take the "freedom to be a idiot and leave stuff in unlocked cars" freedom?
People should have to freedom to do stupid things, it teaches people valuable life lessons. When I was young I learned many lessons the hard way and now appreciate what I have learned through those lessons. Let people BE people and let me tell you from my own personal experience people can be dumb at times. It used to be if you stood behind a horse yu would eventually get kicked and it was your own damned fault. Now days we ban the horse or the act of standing behind the horse. Some people NEED a kick in the head by the horse to learn NOT to do it anymore.
Maybe they should just start young and remove the freedom of life for everyone and that would make enforcing the removal of the other freedoms they have taken away much more easier.
Can I say here that I really hate that evil "mr. burns" filth of the earth eugenicists wanna be Jay Rockefeller.
He has been pushing for controlling and limiting the Internet for a long time. He is one of the few people I sincerely hope catches a good case of cancer and dies.
Step 1. Screw up the economy by spending like drunken sailors and pay their cronies billions in useless fiat currency. Step 2. Hype the "Svine Fluuuuu" all over the news and internet as much as Y2K was hyped. Step 3. Push through a "Svine Fluuuuu" vaccination that is actually filled with all sorts of poison additives like mercury and squalene Step 4. Forcibly inject people with this vaccine and if they refuse either fine them a thousand bucks a day or throw them into interment camps. Step 5. When general population "wakes up" to the fact they are being killed the elites press the big "Disconnect Internet" button. Step 6. With millions dead they impose "martial law" on all of us in the guise of "Restoring order" Step 7. ??? Step 8. Control the world with a monarchy lording over serfs (the regular folks who survive).
Of course this is what the tin-foil hatters will be going on about when they hear about the Internet control scheme.
Sad thing is the tinfoilers are actually starting to make sense thee days and it scares the crap out of me.
I guess at that point Humanity has forgotten about mining mineral rich asteroids. Especially mineral rich asteroids which aren't at the bottom of giant gravity wells knows as planets.
The plot has as many plot holes as an episode of Star Trek: Voyager.
They couldn't clone this guy a human body and have him control that at the very least????? They have FTL drive but mining asteroids which would probably have the same "rare" minerals as the planet they wish to plunder is too hard for them???? They can't just kill off this species on the planet with chemicals or a virus??? Orbital bombardment of Napalm too expensive for them as well????
The humans int he film deserve to get their asses handed to them by "Ewoks" because they are so frelling stupid.
It is possible that HAARP can screw with things, but come one, it is ran by the government and the government has a good track record of always doing the right thing. I am not worried in the least, you can trust the government.
It is a violation of personal space, but I guess since the UK has cameras everywhere and herd mentality of enforcing their social contract then it is not surprising to see them to use tricks like this to re-enforce the whole Nanny state/Big Brother mentality.
Good Post. I know of several people who whine and piss and moan about how bad their lives are and how poor they are but their spending habits are horrible and they made horrible spending decisions. Then they bitch about a 50 dollar doctors office visit because they have a cheapo insurance policy. Of course after the doctors appointment they drive home in new car they bought on credit so they can sit on their fat asses and play X-box 360 games till midnight.
Then there is me, who I scrimp and save even though I don't "Have to". I own my car, lock stock and barrel because I bought a used car. I own my own residence because I scrimped and saved so I could get a decent down payment on it and scrimped some more to pay it off ahead of time. I buy generic food at the grocery store and take other cost cutting measures. I don't buy expensive clothes and don't have an alcohol or drug habit.
I don't mind subsidizing someone who is missing a leg or arm or is paralyzed. What I don't like is subsidizing people which have a problem with the area between their ears. If someone in government could come up with a good mechanism to sort out the truly disadvantaged folks from the idiots who make dumbass decisions then i could get behind such a plan to pay for the people who are disadvantaged. Until then Capitol hill can go pound sand.
This is exactly how the replicators began.... Slow old 72Mhz processors and then you put enough of them together and the thing goes evil and start taking over the universe.....

Good luck trying that in the UK, and especially if you in the UK on a visa. Enjoy your incarceration.

Seriously it would be like adding anti-matter to a big steaming pile of matter.

Would this still work for them? Seems like it would not.
NO NO NO, God designed us 6,000 years ago to feel real pain on rejection from other humans because he is a sadistic control freak.
You people who reject the Bible's completely 100% accuracy really sicken me, how dare you attempt to think logically and critically!!!!

The key is to extend the amount of work you can squeeze out of a person before they finally keel over.
