How are we incentivizing people to have children? I certainly hope you don't mean the tax breaks... because I can assure you that children cost a lot more than any tax breaks you'll ever get.
I see very little evidence that supports any claim that the EC should be disbanded. It's just like why we have a house and a senate. You'll be all happy that the EC is disbanded until the next time that the candidate you chose fails to get elected.
But really it is there for a REASON. You are a citizen of your state first, and then a citizen of the United States.
Very few people identify this way in the modern age. I've been a citizen of over half a dozen states. I don't even consider it anymore, I move where the jobs are, wherever the jobs are. I am an American first.
Whether or not "people in the modern age" identify or not with their state, it is their state that issues them any of the following: driver's license, state id card, CHL/FOID/etc, and I think also hunting & fishing licenses. So you implicitly are a citizen of [insert name of state] whether or not you consciously acknowledge it.
Think of who AT&T brings fiber to first: the 1 million living spread out through a rural expanse or the 1 million living in a few square miles of urban sprawl? The same thing would happen with politics with your logic.
You think you've got problems? What are you supposed to do if you ARE a manically depressed robot? No, don't even bother answering. I'm 50,000 times more intelligent than you and even I don't know the answer.
Except that over time, technology makes this all cheaper, even if you adjust for inflation, you still should be getting a lot more than you used to for the same relative amount of money.
Because then they don't have power over us and they can't whine that they need all sorts of extra funding. They also refuse to return to only using the magnetometer instead of the nudie scanners or they insist on groping everybody's privates. And yet they are as effective as Walmart door-greeters when it comes to actual security. So why don't we just hire Walmart door greeters with the magnetometer to use, and be done with it?
Except what layers of the OSI model do Vodafone and Orange provide, and what levels of the OSI model do Google and Microsoft provide? Perhaps the confusion you are experiencing is due to the fact that you are referring to Orange and Vodafone as "telephone companies". That is a legacy term which is, for all intents and purposes, anachronistic nowadays. Even TFS refers to them as "telecoms". But they are not the same as Google and Microsoft.
Wow, so since we're not suffering complete abstract poverty like you'd see in say, Pasay, we need to shut our pieholes and stop complaining? How things are in Pasay doesn't help my friends & family here in the USA get jobs.
You can sit and try to deduce things mathematically with an ideal and simplistic system. But that's theory, not practice. I have gigabytes of telemetry that I've collected that say otherwise.
Ah yes, the good ol' 55 mph efficiency argument. It's bullcrap. I get my best mpg at 80+ mph. And I've not encountered a modern vehicle that gets its peak mpg before hitting 65 mph.
Or perhaps it's just a figure of speech meaning "make enough noise to get the federal legislature to do something about it" ? I don't know, and I don't feel like assuming what the original poster meant by it.
The courts are not supposed to be in the business of writing law. That means if Congress won't do it, the courts have even less business doing it.
Playing semantics is pointless. By interpreting the law, the courts essentially write it. It's simply a different process, and they don't write new, original laws, only taking in ones that already exist.
And if they don't, we need to put the initiative on the ballot.
You wish for a patchwork of internet regulation on a state-by-state basis? What a minefield that would be.
Where does he say that it should be a on state-by-state basis?
I'm pretty sure he had to either machine the rotors down or replace the rotors for that $700 price. That is not that unreasonable of a price for new rotors if the shop was doing the work, depending on the car.
There are certain cases where a fuel injector will need cleaning - but that usually implies that the driver barely uses the car and thus does get build-up that never gets flushed away.
It isn't usually cheaper to lease a car every 2 years. I didn't do any work myself besides replacing headlamps and turn signal lights, and I've had the car for over 11 years now, and after the cost of maintenance, i'd had spent a lot more for a lease of the same car. But sorry for ruining your smugness.:-)
Not an NRA apologist or anything, but perhaps the NRA is pushing it as far as they do because they're going against groups like Brady and Everytown and others like that which do not want "common sense" laws but an effective end of the 2A?
You're confusing a lease agreement with a ToS. I've rented in many places in the USA, and no, the landlords can't just unilaterally change terms partway through the term of a lease. They can change terms upon lease renewal, since that would be a new term.

Don't let it hit you in the rear end on your way out of the union! (Talk is cheap, let's see them actually do more than talk.)

What's weird about turning a phone off? There's been times where I've had to turn it off so I can get some actual work done.

You're right, for most the word "career" should apply, even though most don't do their "job"...

If you know of such a company, please let me know. I've been working in this industry for some time, and this is par for the course.

There needs to be a 7 day waiting period for a response to every packet sent. This is the data cooling-off period.

You wrongly assume that Israeli security only exists at Ben Gurion International Airport in Lud. It doesn't.
