People who don't support "half of what the federal government does" usually don't have half a clue about what the government actually do for them.
You are imagining generalizations about me without foundation. Of course I would include Medicare in the things the Federal government has no mandate nor business being involved.
The existing decade and more of climate models already had sulphur emission parameters in them, but now that even the cherry picked models are failing to account for the reality that warming is not happening at the predicted rate some are grasping at straws The billions of dollars and euros wasted on climate modelling, along with the billions in fraud and manipulated markets to come with cap and trade, are in dire need of new justification.
no troll, that is how the supreme law of the land says we have to run the country. Any person or system usurping its authority to confiscate wealth or to have tyrannical powers must be eliminated.
no problem, I can make a CD-ROM of information the government can't alter, or have a "data haven". What's important is open format so I can always read it later.
Books can be banned, burned, edited.
I'm sure the same arguments have been made about e-mail vs. snail mail, or reading a news site rather than a news paper. Sorry gramps, but printed matter for most applications including textbooks is a waste of trees. Electronic textbooks can certainly not only handle scribbled annotations, but links to further materials or youtube lectures, student's photographs or recordings, and a dozen other things that would make a much richer learning experience than a mere pulped dead tree.
The Constitution decides; if it isn't listed as a duty, it doesn't get done. No matter who starves, no matter what mega-corporations fall (e.g. federal reserve system), let the chips fall as they may.
what a bargain, since it was explained in the show that the bionic people's parts had atomic power plants. you'd think that any nuclear system that could put out a few kilowatts but not heat the host had to be worth more than a few millions in itself.

"man is the measure", I'm perfectly happy to kill a small amount of some creatures to make things good for mankind. You live in a building where worms and cicadas died when the foundation was dug. That's reality.
I would expect that the "monsters" (e.g. giant squid) would be smart enough to leave any dredging area in a big hurry.
True story, at a prominent national lab a large sum of money was spent to make a habitat for an on-site family of whooping cranes, as part of the land they ranged was going to be impacted by new construction. As the construction to make their new home commenced, the cranes went "whooooop, whoooop whoooooop" like Curly from the three stooges (that might be slight embellishment), and flapped away never to be seen again, rendering the whole "wetlands mitigation" project yet another exercise in government waste and enviro-nazi stupidity.
Wrong, the country was formed right at the signing of the Declaration. Thanks for playing "revisionist urban legends".
"We, therefore, the Representatives of the United States of America, in General Congress, Assembled, appealing to the Supreme Judge of the world for the rectitude of our intentions, do, in the Name, and by Authority of the good People of these Colonies, solemnly publish and declare, That these United Colonies are, and of Right ought to be Free and Independent States; that they are Absolved from all Allegiance to the British Crown, and that all political connection between them and the State of Great Britain, is and ought to be totally dissolved."
Not necessarily true, if instead of raising taxes we prune the government to 40% or less of its present size. I don't support half of what the federal government does, let's mostly get rid of it.
You might be interested to know that while "fruit" has a biological definition, "vegetable" is only a culinary one. I did better under Reagan than any president since.

it's a good heads up for an all-important base 2 milestone, the soon to be reached 2^20 observations, so quit yer whining.
without a space shuttle? I'd go with hard

Clearly you don't understand the target demographic of this more compact system, sea bass.
