  1. so they should be punished because you made a decision to give your kids something that you already know can be abused????

    also if you hate them so much why didnt you get a different brand??? again, you made a decision

  2. tablets can be had for 50 bucks these days. one doesnt need to be rich to have a tablet

    also if the expense that that much maybe you dont need a tablet either

    except for you have no idea of my situation in the slightest. I have a 3 year old and a 7 year old around. Both have android tablets, both have no payment setup on them

    just because you cant seem to grasp the concept of parental responsibility doesnt mean the rest of us are, as you said, retarded

    so you get your kids a tablet that is not your tablet

    you dont leave your tablet for the kids to get

    no, this is a parenting issue, not an amazon issue

    With Roku there is a link you can use to skip the credit card portion of set up. https://my.roku.com/signup/noc...

  7. maybe dont give your child a tablet with access and a CC linked to it. I mean dont the parents have responsibility for the things they allow their children to do???

    Lazy? I know people who are working more than two jobs a week, with 2+ sharing a one bedroom apartment just so they can pay rent and get food on the table.

    If thats the case, maybe they need to move. there is no good reason for working 2 jobs when working one can get you all you need if you simply move to a different place

    well, you are posting as AC - too lazy to create an accout

    copywrite and patents dont really have to have anything to do with a free market.

  11. and in countries where that is happening, doctors are striking or leaving for places where they can get paid what they deserve to be paid, not what the government says they should be

  12. We only have to look back to the beginning of the industrial revolution for some great examples, and continuing forward where companies move quicker than regulation and end up screwing customers over by abusing their market share, etc.

    you are right we should look at that how many people are better off today than they were prior? the majority of them

    Shame about the dreamcast, it was simply ahead of its time. by far the best console of its era eventhough it was short lived

    time warner has been offering this for months (years if you count the ability to use the TWCTV app on a roku. still needed a box but could use rokus everywhere else)

    the most likely reason its only some customers is a general small roll out to check for quality issues before loading up millions on a stream of something rather than going through the normal channels (pun intended)

    marketing or not, hemi engines really are good engines. could say the same of "ecoboost" engines by ford its just marketing. but if one actually knows anything they know whats up. Car buyers should be educated before spending 30K on an item

    yes i know that thank you for the obvious. My point was MOST money has dead presidents on it, its easy to keep things simple without a lot of infighting to keep it that way

    now some other group is going to complain that XYZ is not represented, this opens a whole can of worms and for what? what honest benefit is there to it? it costs money to retool (something we really dont have)

  23. you really need to learn what things mean and stop trying to change the meanings because you did not say one thing that is factual here

  24. no it is not, nor has it ever been.

    that is simply a new tactic being used by the political correct to try and style speech

    instead of complaining about the actions that were so outrageous that they warrant the use of strong language, people are attacking the person who called out the people instead of the actions of those. perfect example would be the mike brown case. i cant tell you how many times the story devolved into calling people racists for calling mike brown a thug or an animal. yet the facts show he robbed a store and tried to take a gun from a cop, yet it is our choice of words that are the problem, not the criminal act.

    enough with the bullshit, lets stop this shit in its tracks

    if i call you retarded for X, that is not an attack on all mentally handicapped people. enough is enough

  25. pretty much, so the point becomes do we listen to the poeple who are career politicians who are trained to lie and care about keeping their jobs over all else

    or do we believe this guy who is lying out of his ass (just like the rest of the, ) but doesnt owe anyone in congress a thing?

    they are all lying so do we try something new or keep going down the same broken path we have been
