Law and Medicine used to be the the fields that attracted the best and brightest. Now, we have an overabundance of lawyers and the margins are very thin on medicine. It's just a matter of time until IT is in a similar position and some

And at $10,000 per loaf, the overhead to bake them would be too great and there would still be a shortage.
484.
by LordKano 11y ago
How else would you even define a shortage other than "the price is too high"? More people want to buy product or service X than there is currently available in the marketplace. So, let's say that during the next growing sea

Re-reading this a couple of days later, I can see how a part of it could be misinterpreted so I wanted to clarify. I should have said that many of my female relatives have these problems. In retrospect, it looked like I was saying all of

Men, generally, can't marry up because women, generally, won't marry down.

I have seen and experienced this, from the inside. I'm an educated black man (MS Degree) with a good job (Fortune 500 company) and my female relatives, many of whom are also educated and successful have difficulty with establishing and

Shouldn't states be able to compete among themselves, in a free market fashion, in order to attract business development that is likely to pay huge dividends over the long term? Of course they should but I believe his objection is th

From what I remember, nothing more serious than mischief takes place when people are under the influence of marijuana and there is still a great deal of debate about whether or not marijuana is even addictive. "drug crime" also in

At the risk of stating the painfully obvious, "gun crimes" refers to crimes committed with guns (murder, assault with a deadly weapon, armed robbery, etc.), not to violations of gun prohibition. In that case, one could argue tha

You're making a meme-worthy argument.

I see a bit or irony here. FTA: The Obama administration last month urged the Supreme Court to reject the suit, saying that the leakage was not Colorado's fault. But just a few weeks ago, the same President argued that gun crime in I

In one case, I needed the job and a non compete was a condition of employment. Instead of signing, I wrote in cursive "Won't Agree" on the signature line. It may not hold up in court but it was enough to satisfy my personal e

I think I'm missing something in your position. Why is the solution to tax people who go off grid?

I have been asked to sign non-compete agreements by a couple of employers. One of them was just a legally worded agreement to not poach customers or go to work for a customer within 18 months of ending employment. That made sense to me and

I use Chrome on my Android phone. I haven't experienced any problems with messaging. I don't want audible notifications. I'll get my messages the next time I check Facebook. This might not be ideal for everyone but it works f

I didn't have a choice about uninstalling the app on my old android phone. It was a built in app and all I could do was uninstall updates. I never installed the update that included the referenced version of messenger. On my new phone,

Going dark has a significant effect on law enforcement. It'll force them to rely on active investigations instead of passively collecting data that they can review at their leisure. I think this will reduce their ability to target peop

I remember when this was a breaking story. At first, they claimed that some bodies had been improperly stored as they were awaiting repairs to the retort. Then, when the scope of the issue became known, I wondered the same thing. How long d

Maybe(IANAL)... It all depends on the details of the dead man switch. The lawyers wouldn't be risking much if they have standing instructions to call his brother/sister/mother in the event that they can't reach him for 4

This is certainly a possibility but not the only one. They could be trying to force changes in policy/behavior.

You're right, I don't want any of that. It's not going to happen because it would be career suicide.

They stopped calling me years ago. The caller went through his spiel and asked if I'd like to make a $100 donation. I politely informed him that I would not. He tried again at $50. I declined and again for $20. He said something along

I would guess that they're remaining unpublished for leverage. I would also guess that personal information about FOP members is in the unpublished data. This is just idle speculation on my part.

So labor should just take whatever management and politicians feel like giving them like obedient little servants? When they're public servants, yes. Do we feel that the civil service is sufficiently isolated from rapidly changing p

Money won’t make you happy This is true but misleading. Nothing external makes you happy. As cheesy as it may sound, happiness comes from within. That being said, having money can ease some of the stresses that weigh upon us and make us u

People take a lot of pictures of UFOs. Most of them are eventually identified as mundane.

An apparently metallic or luminous object in the sky at any time after the 1940s could possibly be explained away as experimental terrestrial craft but we have reports of such things going back much further in history. It's funny how t
