I think you are missing the point. When someone creates a work of art it belongs to them, they can decide what they want to do with it. They can give away whatever portion they want and they can sell whatever portion they want. It is the artists choice, not the listener or the sharer.
Apple is stealing the "two" button idea from Microsoft, this is outrageous, how dare they pirate this idea. Oh wait a minute this is/....um let me start again.
What a beautifully, simple, and elegant idea, a two button mouse. Only Apple could have come up with something like this.
Good Lord Man, the Klingons and Star Fleet couldn't stop V'ger on it return trip to earth, even if we know it is coming.
Without Jim Kirk we are doomed.
His proposed plan does not do away with SS, but allows you to control how a small (15% I think) portion is invested.
I like the idea of controlling how my money is invested.
Classic liberal elitist bullshit, "if you don't see the world my way, then you must be an idiot, or you just aren't "thinking". Hasn't occurred to you that someone might actually have "thought" about things and then arrived at an opinion that is different than your own.
As far as "being lied to", the right and left do a fair amount, or have you forgotten Michael Moore?
I understand what your saying, but if they were able to get the required technology from other sources, why did they bother taking the "dumb down" nuclear technology from the US if it wasn't going to benefit their weapons program?
If the US technology wasn't a benefit, why didn't they asked for crude oil or cash, which they then could have used to purchase the desired technology.
It now seems likely that they used the technology they got from the US along with tehnology from other sources to accelerate their weapons program, I fear this may be one of the US's biggest mistakes, and I am afraid that the next "butting of heads" will again as you say "not work out well" for the Koreans, North and South.
Giving North Korea any assistance was, IMHO, a big mistake. Whatever nuclear technology we gave them put them that much more ahead of where they would be without any assistance.
We should have been holding the hard line from the beginning.
So I guess you agree with my point, liberal educators are biased when grading their students, if you write something that aligns with their leftist wacko world views, you get an better grade.
Thanks for validating my point you Stupid Asshole!!!!
The professor would grade you on your research and your proof and not how he/she particularly felt the topic should be supported.
Unfortunately, for me, it didn't end when I was in college. Being a conservative, any proof I offered, was dismissed and ridiculed and my grades suffered in comparison.
I don't lie awake at night worrying that my next-door neighbors might steal my stuff; even if they did, I have insurance, and it's just stuff.
I don't worry about my stuff, either, what I do worry about is violent crime (car-jacking, kidnapping, and rape.) My family has had direct experience with violent crime. That keeps me awake at night.
I have no fear of being arrested and tortured by US authorities.

It won't be free for long.
I agree.
Well said also.
I believe the "surplus" under Clinton was actually projected, not actual.

What category would you place it in?
...for recorded silence of the length 1m3s?
On the same note I am currently applying for a patent on the passing of urine through the penis. Pretty ground breaking stuff.
We just don't know Google well enough yet.
Just one more reason not to move to California.
Sorry to break the news to you, the problem you describe isn't exclusive to Americans.

Safety != Freedom
The problem in the US isn't the number of guns, it is our attitude about using them.
Without a doubt porn will be one of the first to get in on this. Ohhh Baby, I can't wait to tap into that quantum porn.
Unless of course your knocking Microsoft. ;-)

In case you haven't noticed the vast majority of educators are liberal.
The liberal PC crowd are to blame for this!!!
So how many US citizens are currently in Guantanamo because of something they wrote? Care to share some facts with us?

While the analysis method may be different, I wonder what conclusions could be drawn from the analysis of an average /. post?
