Well said. I remember how back in the day the Japanese came and forced me to buy their electronics. I didn't want to, but I really didn't have a choice. They would have killed me. After that, they did the same thing with cars. I wish someone would stand up against those bastards.
Green Peace the terrorist organization has killed thousands of people.
They force companies to waste money with their tricks. Average worker makes $20 000 a year and lives about 65 years. Wasting 1,3 million dollars is same as killing someone*. Considering this, Green Peace has killed more people than Al Qaeda and CIA together.
* This line of reasoning has been founded true at popular Slashdot spammers & arrests threads.
Providing cheap goods isn't a benefit? People are getting poorer, they can't afford anything better than Wal-Mart. Should they just starve?
Also, it's not like Wal-Mart is forcing anyone to shop there. People want cheap things, not quality items or ethical treatment of employees. Wal-Mart gives people what they want. Maybe you would like to decide what people get, you know, like in a dictatorship.
Somalia a failed state? Maybe in your socialist opinion. It's the libertarian dream. 100% free market, no goverment! People have the freedom to do anything they want and the nanny state isn't there to make any rules or restrictions.
There is not price gouging in a free market. A hurricane decreases supply of items and increases demand. Why shoudn't the price go up? That's called a free market.
The Coalition Press Information Center in Baghdad said in a statement yesterday that the 122-milimeter rocket rounds, which initially showed traces of sarin, "were all empty and tested negative for any type of chemicals."
Now that we are rewriting, I think it is time to bring up the "election via steel cage match" option. Better yet, make it a tag team match involving the vice presidents!
John Kerry and John Edwards vs George Bush and Dick Cheney for the titles of US president & vice president!
Right and wrong. If (or when) US economy runs out of steam (easy credit), Americans won't be able to buy Chinese products. Sure, Chinese can still sell to other coutries like nothing happened but not to Americans. That means a lot of lost sales which means that their economy will slow down. China has been growning extremely has and it will come to a sudden end.
The rate of growth is in no way sustainable. It depends on Americans going deeper and deeper in debt in order to buy the Chinese products. Eventually, the credit must run out and then the demand for Chinese goods will drop.

You don't watch the news much, right?
If we ban writing to host files, only criminals will write to host files.

Clinton did it too.

Low id slashdotter, I'm sure we can rule the "lot of sex" option out.
That's true. He is dead after all.
Missing option: CowboyNeal.
Dupe again. Get a grip Slashdot ... oh wait.
Mind telling us what those terms where? Did they involve WMDs or Al Qaeda connections?
Thanks to inflation, a cup of coffee will cost $15M in 2025.
When you call a company for customer service you should be able to get someone able to bend the rules if circumstances warrant.
That's just asking for social engineering.
You read slashdot. You don't get dates. Thank you all, I'll be here for the weekend.

It's useless to whine about Clinton. He's gone and won't be coming back. Bush is the president, so something still can be done.
I guess that Sony's definition of "spring" is about as flexible as Microsoft's definition of "launch".
I want to meet interesting and stimulating aliens... and kill them. I want to be the first kid on my block to get a confirmed interplanetery kill.

It's always the small guy's fault. People who give orders and make policies get away once again.
