    Wouldn't that leave everyone with the option to use their minds rather than muscles for those things humans are best at, such as true creativity?

    Unfortunately, our society is devoted to making rich people richer and poor people poorer.
    Your dream might interfere with that, so it will never happen.

    mac and cheese is not "junk food".In fact, it's pretty good.
    Add some bread and a microwaved potato, and you have a pretty decent meal. Throw in a sliced tomato, and you have a good meal.
    Still cheap.

    And your argument makes no fucking sense.
    The fifth amendment is to prevent the authorities from beating a confession out of you, obviously.

    More specifically, check out the "Fail" section at the end of this: Take the Fifth

    It will also show why this semi-literate asshole is so loathed by slashdotters, despite the fact that samzempus apparently has the hots for him.

    Yes, the rubber sheet with gravity pulling on it isn't really a model of GR. And a marble isn't really the earth.
    It's a fucking analogy!!!

    Do I really need to Google that one for you too?

    Yes.

    There is a fascinating interview with an engineer designing one of the first working quantum computer that points out this very phenomenon.

    Citation?

    If you consider that observation changes results

    No, it doesn't. Absorption of photons, as with your eye or a detector, can alter quantum events.
    Observation implies absorption, not vice-versa.

    As we can change quantum events by thinking about them

    No, you can't.

    You can change quantum events by absorbing photons (as with your eye or a detector of some sort), but that has nothing to do with "thinking about them".

    Under socialized medicine you just end up having to pay a taxes and receive sub-par medical care for it.

    I guess that's why the U.S., by any measure, has the lousiest medical care in the developed world.
