Dennis Kucinich is such a joke and a waste of time with is posturing.
Dennis Kucinich is now one of the most well respected politicians on Capitol Hill. He is considered one of the few politicians who operates almost exclusively on his principles. Ron Paul is the same way, although his principles are very different. Both are now very well respected.
3) The fact of extraterrestrial warming is glossed over entirely by scientists and media presenting information to the public because it would "damage the cause".
So you are implying that there is a conspiracy among scientists to promulgate disinformation to bolster the case for global warming. I just wanted to clarify that this appears to be what you are saying.
Personally I get annoyed when I see a comment in a Wikipedia article which was obviously added by someone promoting some product, or some stupid viral video attempt they posted on youtube which was peripherally related to the article in question. I feel that deletion of these kind of trivial things is important to maintain the integrity of Wikipedia.
Right, but this has nothing to do with most of the articles that are deleted from Wikipedia.
According to legend, they were "giants", people who were taller and stronger than the Inuit, but who were easily scared off and retreated from the advancing Inuit.
As it is, they have a 40 billion+ fund for things like this. Give back the money you so greedily took when you didn't care about the consequences, or use the money you've saved for this purpose, but don't expect us (and it WILL be us, the customer who gets the cost passed to them) to pay you off again.
We are living and walking around on soil that we took from Native people by force.
This brings up the essential issue: what kind of program would YOU write to take advantage of this?
Any problem that has to work against a variational limit, like (many) computational chemistry applications and also problems in quantum chromodynamics.
Also, the vehicle itself is pollution free, but making the electricity to compress the air isn't.
That's why this car isn't impressive. I'm not sure why anyone is even talking about it. The pollution is just being transfered from your tail pipe to a power plant.
wtf do we do if the machines are as smart as we are? Who is going to hire any people to do even the most advanced thinking jobs when the machine that works for electricity 24/7 can do it?
We can raise the price of electricity and lower the cost of candles.
This reminds me of a Homer Simpson quote, "I would like to live long enough to see the effects of global warming. I've got an inside tip that it's all a load of crap!"
Our government hires about 15% of the population directly, and has another 20-25% of the population hired under direct contract work.
The Federal government has about 1 million employees. There are 300 million people in America so that 0.33% of people are employeed directly by the Federal government.
If they dumped all of their holdings of U.S. dollars, then the first effect would be that the currency would fall on exchange markets. This would actually help the competitiveness of American industries abroad and might devalue it to the extent that the pegged exchange rate against the yuan would be a more reasonable evaluation of the currencies. That would abruptly end the shift of labor to China.
The primary reporting is just incompetent and wrong,
You are dead on here. The incompetence of the modern television news media is extremely disturbing. Even with several outlets to choose from, they are all essentially functioning the same way.
