    I absolutely do. Regardless of what you think a retirement should be, something like this is pure shit, and it trying to weasel out of a deal. It should be illegal, full stop, and those who do it should be stripped of all income, property, and sent to rot in a jail cell for the rest of their lives.

    No, this has to be utter bullshit. Situations like this are exactly what suing your employer is supposed to be for. For another employer to look negatively on that is absolutely childish, and those employers are complete scumbags.

    I'm guessing that most of them should be able to find gainful employment fairly quickly.

    "True Capitalism" also doesn't really have any defense against the capitalists buying politicians.

    No, I think it's you who's wrong and misinformed. Government is meddling in the market, but at who's behest? The very capitalists you claim we don't understand.

    Oh fuck off with your bullshit. Just because something is not purely free market and completely free from regulation does not mean that it is still not operating in a largely free market manner.

    No, it most certainly is a property of capitalism. Or are you going to try and tell me that trying to gain an advantage by bribing politicians is somehow not a property of capitalism?

    The banks did this shit on their own. They are the ones who made the conscious decision to actually do this shit. To claim that it's not their fault is just laughable.

    Yes, but being dissatisfied at work can take a huge drain on you, to the point where you really don't want to do anything else after you get home, especially not something associated with what you do at work.

    Yes, in this economy. Programmers are one of the professions that are almost untouched by the recession.

    Second: Start a project on your own that is fun. (in my case: Make games!).

    This can be a good suggestion. But before that happens, he needs the inspiration to actually go through with it. Wanting to do some programming, but not having a single idea of what to do is an awful feeling.

    The only bat-shit crazy stories around here are coming from you. Take your conspiracy theories elsewhere until you have credible evidence to back them up.

    So that's an "I'm a racist piece of shit, because I'm not willing to do something that I've demanded someone else do. And despite that other person doing it several times, I'm still going to bitch and moan that it's not good enough for me, despite being exactly what was requested."

    Yes, I called you a racist. The only people who could think any of the birther horseshit was even remotely credible are those that hate Obama because he's black.

    Nope. Your post is ignorant and uninformed.

    Furthermore, I trust the FCC far, far, far more than I trust Comcast. The FCC doesn't have a profit motive to massively fuck with my traffic or control where I go.

    And no, don't even begin to bring up the "free market" solution. It doesn't fucking work.

    Here's a hint: THE PRESIDENT IS NOT A DICTATOR. If Congress does not fund something, it doesn't get done. Period.

    You want someone to blame? Blame those in Congress that voted to refuse funding to this action. Not Obama.

    Because that's the only reason, right? It had nothing to do with the revolution that sprung up by LIBYA'S OWN PEOPLE that wanted him gone. Nope, we just marched right in there and overthrew the government. Except Obama found some sinister way to make it seem as if no troops actually went into the country!

    You are bat-shit crazy. Nothing you've said regarding this topic is remotely true. Go back under your rock.

    Debatable. The only one who polls say has a chance of beating Obama is Mitt Romney, and if he gets the nomination, it's likely that the base will not be energized enough to turn out. Of course, if someone who does energize the base gets the nomination, that will likely turn off all the independent voters.

    And you need to come up with a FAR better comparison than "Bush expanded health care benefits, Obama wants to expand health care benefits." That is just the shittiest of comparisons. It's like saying that sausage and hamburger are the same thing, because they're "both made of meat."
