Like any other nation, the right people changes every election. Especially in nations with poor leadership. I guess Asia is lucky that the gangs haven’t learned that you have to pay everyone in power, and everyone who could come to power.

Not only that, but if you're close to a road at all, you'll intake the micro-plastics and nano-plastics. So you really need to move away from roads. That's possible, but it's really hard to do in most developed nations.

So they considered it, and then left it out of the Constitution. I wonder why? /s I'll concede, in the US, just as in everyplace else, we have a long list of issues with which we need to deal. However, things like public debate an

Let them deliberate without us watching over their shoulders That’s a recipe for disaster. The Founders came up with a Constitution for a reason. Public debate is not our problem. Any more than freedom of speech is our problem.

Oh God. Don’t say that. Nothing says “thoroughly defeated” quite as well as people lacking in self-awareness running around shouting, “The South shall rise again!”. Let’s just put our heads down and come up with some ideas on how we can bet

Something depressingly self defeating about people paying money into the system to acquire ammo for the purposes of.. bringing down the system? Win or lose, I'm thinking money is flowing up to the same people.

China's drowning in their own PhD's. The competition is fierce, and the pressure is enormous. The best and brightest over there are insanely capable men and women. In all honesty, it's hard to see China wanting many of the Ph

Wow. There's people who actually believe this stuff? Hopefully these people are not allowed to infect the NTSB with their idiocy. We have to keep focused on safety. Which means we don't ignore the root cause of helo pilots losing,

No. There are also rules on who can do what. Put another way, military aircraft, especially certain military aircraft, can do things that civilian aircraft can't. If I were piloting a helicopter in that airspace, that ATC transcript wo

From a legal perspective, Apple's biggest concern, by far , is that this case could set a precedent for using courts to sanction Apple without letting Apple in court. Next to that, revenue is meaningless. Because they can take your re
