That's well and good for people in careers where that's feasible. If you are trained to be a nurse or a school teacher, its really not practical to "start your own business" now is it?
So maybe if I break my leg and can't work, I should charge my employer more (with government approval) when I come back to work. Cause, you know, I have fixed costs no matter how much income I receive.
I disagree that it looks bad on your resume to have left a company that then went bust. If a company goes bust because of a single employee leaving, then they are poorly managed. If you left shortly before they went bust, that shows you have a good head on your shoulders and were able to sense that the company was heading down.
Sorry, but I and all of my Gen-X neighbors cook decent meals and sit down to supper every evening with our families. We police our children's diets, and we only scarf down a bag of Doritos once a month or so -- as a cool treat.
If anything, we're stricter on our kids than our parents were. My mom never purposefully bought "organic" food -- there was no such products in the 80s. Sometimes, they gave us cupcakes or cookies at school! (gasp!) I was allowed Kool-aid whenever I wanted it. Heaven forbid I let my kid take a peanut-butter sandwich to school, but they actually used to serve that to us in the cafeteria! And they cut the peanut butter with honey!
Padme Amidala going at with Seven of Nine and Uhura (the Zoe Saldana one) in a Bacta tank filled up to the reams with jell-o shots. That will be teh match to watch.
And they're all wearing Leah's slave-girl outfit...
Explain to me how the US government makes money by enforcing these laws? I realize that there are fines and confiscation of property, but not nearly enough to pay for all the cops, lawyers, judges, thinktanks, legislators, etc. Not to mention housing the convicts. We're not talking about traffic tickets here.
Relationships are organic. They can heal. In my opinion, giving up on a marriage simply due to a lack of trust is a sign of weakness of character. I'm not saying that there aren't any good reasons for divorce, because there are. (abuse and criminal conduct come to mind)
I am saying that a marriage is a promise of "till death do us part". That should mean something.
If someone hot-wires my car, and then rams it into a police station, then I'm not liable. The car manufacturer is not liable. The police are not liable. As a matter of fact, its not even my fault if I left the doors unlocked and the engine running. The person responsible is the bastard that stole it and did the damage.
These viruses and botnets are not spontaneous. They are not random acts of nature. They happen because of bad guys doing bad things. We should all take reasonable precautions, but we shouldn't be held liable for their actions.
There are some who were brought in as children by their parents. The children didn't commit a crime, their parents did. Yet, they are still "illegal immigrants".
I realize that's a small percentage, but when you say "every single one" you are talking in absolutes.

So start your own business. I did

People would think you're a lunatic if you drank ketchup like it was beer.
But...Ronald Reagan told me it was a vegetable....
Danger Zone!
I think he did an excellent job as Denny Crane. I think its the only thing he ever did an excellent job at...
No, I think the writers (George Lucas et al) did way more damage than Labouf.
I think you bring up a good point.
James T. Kirk vs. Han Solo => Chuck Norris wins.
Spock vs. Obiwan => Chuck Norris wins.
Worf vs. Chewacca => Chuck Norris wins.
Q vs. Chuck Norris => Chuck Norris wins.
Captain Mal could kick all of their butts.
Ok, I recognize frak, frell (should be "drin") and smeg...but wtf is feldercarb?

I heartily disagree. Its mostly the nerds who hate the prequels. Normal folks liked them okay enough.
And its funny how they didn't think it was wasteful until a democrat was at the helm.
My previous president imprisoned people without trial and tortured them. Then he tanked our economy.
Against my wishes, by the way.
So please, continue to complain that your current president is some kind of boogie-man.
Typical. Noone else should say anything but the guy I agree with, right?
Unfortunately we have neither at the moment.
Warren Buffett says so.

This would solve that pesky immigration issue.

Perhaps a simpler solution would be to refrain from cheating on your spouse...
Time for a car analogy.
If someone hot-wires my car, and then rams it into a police station, then I'm not liable. The car manufacturer is not liable. The police are not liable. As a matter of fact, its not even my fault if I left the doors unlocked and the engine running. The person responsible is the bastard that stole it and did the damage.

I think the wiggle room there is the word "solely". Sure, you can't arrest a guy for being brown, but if he's brown AND hispanic, well there ya go.
Also, it does not mention accent. So, if a guy has a Mexican accent, that can be interpreted as probably cause.
Much like the "Odumbo" comments that we get from the right-wingers....
