if only this was true... Instead we get people that demand the stopping of the use the word Christmas, people praying in public, crosses being visible at cemeteries and monuments, bibles in the military, and on slashdot I have seen an amazing number of posts stating that patents shouldn't be allowed to teach religion to their kids.
So you would rather everyone (except you I'm assuming) work in third world poverty conditions because that is what capitalism seeks (those with the means controlling production and hence wages)?
I guess that is why everyone in America makes minimum wage, right? Because with your warped view of capitalism, that would be the case.
I would suggest you check out dailykos.com for better information about how the ACA has actually saved lives.
Do you realize that healthcare actually was working for the vast majority of people? ACA has not really been around long enough to determine if it saved lives. And will you count people that die because their previous insurance was lost because of ACA the fault of ACA or the fault of the private insurance?
I have a feeling that in your mind, anything good regarding ACA is to the credit of government and anything bad is the fault of the businesses or republicans. That's a nice, sheltered world to live in. (I base this on your comments that you don't even listen to alternative views and will always vote democrat.
No I do not. But all the "statements" made by the commenter could have been lifted from Fox News.....
So you don't watch Fox News but know that all the comments could have been lifted from them? I guess you must have seen snipits posted on sites you read and assume that the editorial part of Fox News is the news part - the same editorial parts that CNN and MSNBC have but leaning the other way.
Democrat. Always was one and always will be one.
Ah - well I'm glad you admit to have an open mind. Sounds like the Democrats don't really have to do anything to win your vote - which is probably why they don't really care what they do on the privacy or war fronts.
What I am confused about is how this is happening. I keep hearing on slashdot that the US has the lowest tax rates for corperations and the rich so how come it is cheaper (tax-wise) to go to another country - especially since from what I have read here, the US treats it's employees the worst as well as underpays them while stealing their benifits.
Surely, those comments were not just US hating propaganda?
That system would hurt poorer people a lot harder than wealthier people unless the fine is set at a sliding scale. But then you need to explain why a rich person using drugs costs society more than a poorer person.
They don't want people watching this because these actions go against the PC message that the muslim religion is a religion of peace and love (parroted quickly by the US president).

That's a greatn justification to be able to sterotype others and not yourself
The nazis were not mainly Christians. The Germans at the time were. This might startle you but the majority of Germans weren't nazis, either.
Additionally, it's a nice trick to give atheist countries a pass on atrocities while holding Christian countries responsible
All the posts below you from atheists seem to disagree.
The thing is that not all atheists believe the same things just like not all Christians believe the same thing
The real question is: Is there a word for people who "Could care less if there is a god"
agnostic?
Perhaps I should have said science tends to draw people that have a greater tendency question everything.
If that were true, they'd be agnostic, right? Atheists are not questioning, they already have decided
atheists tend not to tell people what to do.
if only this was true. ..

It's a weird install.
I installed the Amazon app store, then the Amazon app from there.
The app now has a section for videos. When you pick one, it installs the plug in for you
Can you link me to that plan? Mine is the opposite but i would prefer yours

After the startup glitches (your HuffPo link was from last year, and is well out of date) the site seems to be functioning OK.
Except for this security breach, right?

The school requires for me to buy notebooks, pens, pencils, etc for my kids.
Perhaps, it might explain why they're fatter and slower than their parents were. At least if they were busybodies they'd be moving around. Why do you hate America?
Probably ties in with the mentality of calling video games sports

You are saying that a store employing people and adding the convenience for customers to shop after work is a bad thing?
I know a lot of employees that prefer hours like this because of family life.
Additionally, at my job, the overnight shift is a coveted position. It's easier work and it pays more
I loved this whole post but this part was the gem
seriously most of the phone tree is a circular loop. we have maybe 4 phones in this office
it came back up before I was awake (IRC logged my disconnect) and with IPv6 service finally
Guess it's time to turn that on on my router...
Depends where. In San Antonio, public schools started this Monday and private schools started last week.
SPAM is a registered trademark of Hormel. It's a controversial food product; people tend to love it or hate it.
I don't usually eat food with that much salt, but it's pretty good fried.
As a kid, I used to love it including that jelly stuff. Now when I see the jelly stuff, I have to stop myself from gagging.

I've found that most people who can't understand accents tend to be poor communicators themselves.
Let me guess... you have a heavy accent?
Agreed - it's hard to read and just a sad attempt to be different
Or... you are not a criminal no matter how violent you are if you work for the government
