What duress are you talking about? No one in the EU or the US will actually die if they don't take some crappy job. These people are free to live in a tent and dive into trashcans for food if they don't like to work, which isn&#x2

If you subsidise people so they don't need to accept "crappy jobs" then it distorts the market instead of making it more "free" because now a potential worker with fewer skills valued by the market doesn't need

Who cares? They have the chance to learn to be better negotiators, which they'll hopefully be some day. Do we need to handicap more experienced negotiators so that 19 year olds do better?

I just don't get it why anyone would try a second or third time after you already had 3-4 months of depression and anxiety after the first trip? For me that would mean the end of my business and on top of that it would certainly hurt m

It's about supply and demand. (not exclusively but still) How could it be enforced that software developers can only earn the median income of the general population? Passing new laws that set a limit? That would be completely crazy, y

Don't forget the Bulgaria, Cyprus, Iran, Syria, Russia and the Kurds. Turkey is basically surrounded by enemies, there's almost no one they are on good terms with.

I believe that this kind of behaviour will be the reason why the Internet as we know it and are used to it will end some day. We will have many island solutions with firewalls around them just to prevent foreign powers from interfering in i

Iraq was invaded 13 years ago and I'm willing to take any bet that today there are more Iraqis than ever that would be willing to assassinate a Western governments leader. Just have a look at all the crazy extremist organisations in th

How about letting people make their own choice on how they want to spend their life? Who are YOU to believe you can make that decision for me and everyone else?

As someone who works in the VoIP mobile client area for 7 years (though not for Skype) I have to be fair and say that this is unlikely to be Skypes fault. They are known to use state of the art codecs so most likely the issue lies in the PS
