Present to the President??!! I don't think so. The property taxes are paid to the state and local tax boards and school districts. The President can never change education for the better at the K-12 level; only lower the lowest common denominator to drag all students down to an even lower level.
Real change in education happens best at the local level.
Although your post is informative on the state of Belgium government idiocy, a little effort on your part is suggested. If you don't know how to search for cached copies of web pages, perhaps you should turn in your/. account.
Planes are about and require pilots; drones are about technology. The military likes nothing better than pilots in airplanes. Pilots make for good publicity, training for leadership, and provide manpower statistics which look good in force deployment reports.
Keeping U2 pilots, which are saving us from terrorism, under the despicable conditions of low pay and consequential low morale is an easier way to lobby for increases in military spending. Drones don't have wives who can complain to a camera.
Which is directly contradicted by the section preceding:
(d) CONSTRUCTION.—Nothing in this section is intended to limit or expand the authority of the President or the scope of the Authorization for Use of Military Force.
When powerful governments are not limited in their application of Military Force, they will abuse that force without limit until stopped by extreme action. Please read history for the the numerous examples.
According to "one Homeland official in the Washington, D.C. office", they were testing security. Are you so willing to accept a blanket statement from a nameless, untitled, unconfirmed bureaucrat not at the security testing location as truth? The harassment was neither blatant nor direct; but rather more insidious and understated. The slippery slope has begun.
Those same voters born after 9/11 will have developed their mindset in society infused with "terror awareness". To those who have never lived in a different societal norm, the incursions on our liberties will only seem natural. This group will also lack the firsthand stories, with the emotional impact from grandparents, who survived truly desperate times.
The US has a pattern of desperate times approximately every 80 years: Revolutionary War to Civil War (four score and seven years) Civil War to Great Depression Great Depression to the current Great Terrorist Attacks
The continuing degradation of our Rights in bits and pieces is just part of a larger pattern and cycle the US cannot seem to escape.
By posting an equivalency between the Nazi Germany Gestapo and the US Department of Homeland Security, I am declaring myself as belligerent. As such, according to recent legislation, this US citizen may be subject to military detainment without counsel or trial. Please inform my.......
The Gestapo (; abbreviation of Geheime Staatspolizei, Secret State Police) was the official secret police of Nazi Germany. Beginning in April 1934, it was under the administration of the SS leader Heinrich Himmler in his position as Chief of German Police (Chef der Deutschen Polizei). From September 1939 forward it was administered by the Reichssicherheitshauptamt (RSHA) ("Reich Main Security Office") and was considered a sister organization of the Sicherheitsdienst (SD) ("Security Service") and also a suboffice of the Sicherheitspolizei (SiPo) ("security police").
You forgot the risk allocation part of the brainstorming session: the manager can measure risk factors of all suggestions and choose a sacrificial offering(s) in case of unavoidable failure. This bolsters the managers power for both success and failure.
I'm afraid I have to agree -- when interacting with government, no good deed goes unpunished. Any act of cooperation is eventually interpreted as voluntary subjugation.
It's not a matter of what wage levels are acceptable in the US; but rather what type of wages support the onerous and complex tax system implemented in the US. Even using a simple comparison of taxation, you can see the US tax rates and structure are so complex and expensive that the US cannot support simple labor jobs. I personally know individuals in the US who cannot keep employment at basic jobs because the complexity of our taxation and economic implementation overwhelms them. And legalized financial con artists take advantage of these people for personal profit.
It's not the wage levels; it's the tax levels. Same as it was in 1776.

And there's no room for a gun rack on the back window. This is a quiet assault on the Second Amendment!

Since you're fully integrated into the Matrix, I think battery life represents an entirely different problem,
Simple solution -- beer. Visiting the pub could become a mandatory activity for lunch everyday to recharge. And don't forget dessert!
But this story was not spun from thin air. It speaks of the gift of circuitry delivered by gold, nanoscale, and polymyrrh.
If you swirl some more drink over ice and consume, your eyes will roll all by themselves. And the prognostication articles will be more entertaining.
I'll bet it causes cancer.
Only if printed on white mice at a circuit density 1000 times higher than normal human circuits.
If transparent in visible light, is the circuit visible in UV light or other wavelengths?
evolution cares not for individuals, only the mass
Is that why fat people are proliferating?
