You would be surprised. On a day that I don't get to the gym, I average around 9000 and I spend most of my day working at a desk or moving between meetings (i.e. I don't consider myself very active).

Don't just bring him home, honor him. Ticker tape parades, a federal holiday, buy 1 get 1 free at Carl's Jr. - celebrate what this man did.

Agreed. The most glaring example of this was the low-fat guidance given during the 80's and 90's in the US. Sugar and high glycemic index carbohydrates were hardly discussed.

Recently, a woman that I shared an elevator with commented on my laptop - she noticed that I worked at a large tech company. She commented that she too had worked for a large tech company at one time - AOL. I smiled. She then immediately

That it took this long and came this close is concerning. I can't help but feel this is just theater.

I've seen these before - someone leaves it all for the simple life. This is the first time I've seen the added benefit of being able to spend a lot more time with family. To me, that's one of the most compelling reasons to

Singapore, Dunkirk, Dieppe... The Allies performed terribly for most of the war, and only seemed to hang on until Hitler defeated himself. The perfect combination of British time, Russian blood, and American weapons helped, as well.

Perhaps they're poking holes in a flawed design proposal. You are, after all, attempting to engineer society. Would it not be better to see these 'negatives' as problems to solve?

This doesn't sound very well thought-through. Where will this income come from? Who will determine it? Who will distribute it? How will it be regulated? What if other nations don't do the same? How does that impact immigration po

So we need basic income collected and delivered by a government bureaucracy to prevent further growth of government bureaucracies?

There are differences. Some people derive their identity and esteem from their work. Some don't. For a primitive example of the above in action, try to deprive a German shepherd of a working role. Then do the same with a pug and obs

His thoughts are sometimes controversial and I don't always agree with them. However, I find them to be a refreshing and thoughtful break from the hyper politically correct discourse so widely practiced in the US.

Fair point. I am not aware of the deal involving tobacco for technology. Sad that it appears to have not worked out. Perhaps this faith would have been better placed in setting up a line-of-sight or co-op system rather than in politicians

Why is it Verizon's responsibility to provide you with service? I am certainly not a fan of big communication companies and the monopolies, but I can't see the logic behind your argument. How are you entitled to a fast internet
