It's not like capitalism was just put here by someone, it's how free humans will interact by default. The idea that it can be "replaced" is one of the most asinine that I've ever heard. Even in places that have trie

I understand that Microsoft has handled some software they've acquired badly (Skype), but is the Microsoft of today not vastly different from the Microsoft of that day? I don't think this will be the downward spiral that some peop

That is interesting. I wonder if a manufacturer has ever released a dualbooted PC before.

I agree. The whole article is basically saying that it's unfair that they have competition now. Sure, cab drivers may not be making as good of a living as before, but in general everyone else has gained a lot in regards to lower fares.

Any one who is arguing that this is the free market at work doesn't believe that healthcare is a right. You can have access to healthcare, but that doesn't guarantee that you will.

There are obviously exceptions - the last bit of the article kind of explained that. >But what the Maastricht study can do is provides highly credible evidence that marijuana legalization will lead to decreased academic success — perhaps

I really don't think this is a good idea. It will surely make things more expensive for consumers and as a consumer we agree to to buy the product regardless of the repairability. If you want to buy things that are repairable then you

A bit of a senseless comparison. I think the app switcher works better for iPad than previous generations as it uses more of the available screen real estate and makes the iPad seem less of a jumbo iPhone. This is a first iteration and I th
