You betcha. Let's let grandma come and live with you. Those meds of hers are expensive so it would be better if you fronted her the money. Come to think of it, let's get rid of NTSB, you can check those transportation vehicles you use by yourself before you get on...just to ascertain whether you'll still be alive at journey's end. Damn that government for keeping you safe! And where does the NiH get off doing all that research on diseases you'd love to have rather than the cures they are producing, the nerve of those people. You'll be perfectly safe drinking the water runoff from the chemical plants, damn that government for watching over it!
Yeah, the U.S.'s wealth isn't connected to keeping the shipping lanes open, defending Korea and Japan so they won't decide to develop their own nukes, keeping W. Europe from becoming Putin's pig sty, keeping the oil from the Mid-East greasing the world economy that buys American goods, etc. Screw it all, the U.S. doesn't need all that to be fat and rich, yes?
Yep, those unemployed NRA members will be contributing to the intellectual and spiritual growth of mankind any day now...soon....shortly...just around the corner....
So in other words, your job hasn't yet been automated or made redundant because one of your competitors found that replacing the company president with a bot made the other company more efficient. Ermmm....why exactly should you be allowed to keep your job? Would a bot that says silly things on Slashdot and makes AI-infused company decisions be more efficient. You should look into this, I'm sure with some effort you can find a bot replacement.
No, more like they are up to their ears in all the other things governments require of them that they do not have the resources or the time. Also, many of the scams span countries. Try going to India and claim some of their citizens are scamming Americans. (1) why should they give a flying rat's ass, (2) it means assigning resources to an investigation, (3) it involves bringing prosecution. What's in it for India?
Are you trying to give this moron a heart attack? He's gotten to 73 years old being an ignorant git by not paying attention to things that will disrupt his view of the world. His constituents think he's just potty.
Nah, there's are legions of Republicans and a few Democrats that will still get voted in because their constituents are just as backward as they are. Texas is a prime example. Science? They've heard of it but figure is it a colossal dodge by liberals to prevent them from having dominion over the earth and giving it a good fucking.
People have been fighting over the Mid-East from roughly 6000 BC until now. The Euros were not the cause of the current problems. The current problems are millenia old. Funny they cannot seem to straighten themselves out after all these years. They even decided to take a new religion, Islam, and use it to create a new fault line.
It used to be the Shi'ites on Bahrain were docile and not overly upset with their Sunni masters. Then they got pissed. Reporters interviewed the proles to see what caused the uprising. One bright young prole said, Google Earth. From Google Earth the Shi'ites could see for the first time where all the whizzy new development was going and how they were getting the shaft. They got pissed. Recently, Iran decided a good Shi'ite revolt was too good to miss and started supporting the proles. The Saudi's, who see an Iranian behind every grain of sand, are supporting the Sunni overloads.
I suspect some version of this is at work in the other Arab lands.
That's like saying Russia has copied Western democracies. To reuse a paraphrase from Douglas Adams, Russia is above tyranny like a brick is above the Sargasso Sea.
Wars are rarely won. Pick up a good history of the Mid-East from about 6000 BC to 0 BC. The same groups that were fighting then are fighting now. Islam is beside the point, the tribal and cultural affiliations seem immutable. The added gasoline of Islam only makes it worse.
The last big war on in the U.S. was the Civil War (and no it wasn't the war between the states). The Civil War is still being fought, there's pol in N. Carolina who just this week called Lincoln a tyrant and compared him to Hitler. The white supremacists groups, Britebart, Fox News, etc. show that same strains that caused Civil War are still apparent and being fought daily.
Nah, Trump would still have won because he could tell bigger lies. Bernie was lying too about how he'd pay for all the baubles and trinkets he was offering. So was Trump, but Trump had a bigger bag of lies that would work with a bigger group of people. Personally, I think Bernie would have lost the popular vote.
As a long-time Trump supporter, you must realize his ability to pass the buck and avoid responsibility is his paramount concern. The scuttlebutt before the U.S. strike was that the U.S. encouraged Assad to do whatever he wanted because of Trump being Putin's poodle, and T-Rex and that ridiculous excuse for a U.N. ambassador announcing that Assad's fate was in the hands of the Syrian people. So Assad does what he does best, something incredibly stupid making el Presidente Tweetie look like he egged him on.
So ePT does what he does best, cover his tracks so that he doesn't look responsible for what Assad has done. The previous scuttlebutt is no longer mentioned, mission accomplished.
Now if that asshole had not just taken a whack out of the State Department, and staffed it properly, he'd have a followup. But he doesn't think ahead, he mostly reacts to the moment. Somehow it is not okay to see Syrian children dead but it is okay to screw poor Americans out of their health care. He's a cad and a bounder, and totally without honor.
While in general I agree with your sentiments, I have no illusions that hiring managers or bean counters can think that far ahead.
More likely, companies are getting hammered about diversity, and lowing costs they can flog to investors. Why not put the two together, hire diverse people without degrees and play them less. Two birds, one stone, both dead.
I see you don't understand how the U.S. tax system works. The people in Congress determine the tax laws and what can and cannot be taxed. The IRS is merely the middleman with little discretion and even that is subject to judicial review.
This sounds like the same sort of mentality that gave us Java. Sun created Java in its own image, so it encouraged extra threads and creation of lots of objects because they figured it would run on big machines. They sold it though as something that would run everywhere. The threading and objects made it run like a dog on small machines.
Most Trump supporters don't understand the difference between a free market and an unfree market. When the economy of the U.S. was changing, they never popped up their heads and looked around and thought, maybe I should get more education...if they could afford it. They continued to vote in jokers who complained they couldn't afford to give their voters more education because that would require the federal government spend money on them and possibly raise taxes to do it. They were perfectly potty with their voters being on disability and other government programs, the costs for those programs are already buried in the yearly budgets.
Now their voters have the worst of both worlds, they remain uneducated and their elected representatives like it that way. Just to make things worse, they believed some yokel called Trump was a businessman when in truth he was just the CEO of a Ma and Pa Kettle operation. He knows nothing, hasn't read a book in years, has the attention span of gnat, and whose big idea is to bring back coal jobs for an economy of the 1970s he still thinks exists.
Their dreams of drone delivery will work until it becomes urban sport to nail the drones with slingshots, BB guns, rocks, etc. It is just be a new target for juvenile delinquency.
Most of his executive orders are mere show, he'd need Congress or changes to international agreements to make any real changes. The latest example is his order for agencies to scour U.S. trading partners for signs of dumping. He cannot arbitrarily impose sanctions on trading partners. Those are governed by WTO rules. His order was merely to impress the people who take him seriously.
I see, so when insurance rates increase because dumb unhealthy people go to the emergency room after their life style catches up with them, you heartily approve of paying those rates. And this is precisely why libretards do not get statistics with the motto: let everyone do whatever they like as long as I'm too stupid to understand how it affects me or my family.

It's almost like you have no touch with reality.
Iraq didn't have a S. Korea will millions at risk to hold hostage.

I doubt we could verify their claims even with the source. The source most likely a kludge of past malware masquerading as an OS.

You got that right. I first saw the new theme this morning...I had to resist the urge to vomit.

It is good to see the Enlightenment hasn't left a mark on you.
