If you think that would end it then you don't know conspiracy theories. It would just be proof that China is in on it too.

Your tone is quite disrespectful. Is this really necessary? Maybe not, but what you're saying still doesn't make sense. There are lots of things trying to influence our actions, and the academe is one of the least of them. What&

What planet are you on? No one is suggesting the government force anyone to do anything with regard to housework. The antigovernment herds come out whenever anyone suggests that our government should do something. That's par for the co

Here's the thing you don't understand: Yes, conservatives do want the poor to suffer, because they think the poor are poor because they're too lazy to work hard and overcome their poverty. Making them suffer is the only way t

This is exciting. I've been waiting to see how he filled out the later chapters for a while now, and presumably this means they're done, or at least will be by May. I want to see that tiny virtual machine get built!

Fuller is arguing otherwise here. He says we need to get away from the idea that we have to do something to deserve to make a living. Your whole comment is premised on that idea. Whether it not you're right, you haven't engaged wi

Of course, he was also wrong about a lot of things. I recall in 20,000 Leagues they travel under the Antarctic ice all the way over the pole... because there was no land there in 1870, I guess.

You haven't heard that they're already collecting data on anyone who books a flight? Supposedly so they can clear them in advance. At least metaphorically, what you're worrying about here has already come to pass.

Because more and more people live in London (San Francisco, New York, Hong Kong, etc.) now - it's too crowded there. Ftfy. How can they be crowded if no one lives there anymore? Or are you suggesting they're crowded with things

Just to clarify, I'm not claiming the US is the first constitutional democracy, just the oldest still standing. And agree with you about all the oddities. As far as presidential veto power, the US Constitution predates the first French

You have a lot of things mixed up. This isn't about not enough money. It's about Congress having to pass a budget in order to run the government. Maybe you're thinking of the debt ceiling?
