SA's population might be relatively low but at the moment they seem to be having a manufacturing slump with the pullout of major car companies so from that perspective there should be enough labor to gather there.

That's a fair argument but I'm more interested in how much R&D happens under single payer systems.

What about drug R&D in those countries? For all the issues of the US healthcare system, one thing it has going for it is most of the new developments in medicine comes from the US.

Then how are they able to say with certainty of what happened? Is it normal to just take private companies at their word when it comes to investigations?

If it ends up that the government doesn't release the evidence because "our methods and the public is too stupid anyway" then we are heading for some incredibly dark times. One thing people forget to mention about the FBI dir

Snopes is a complete joke now. That aside, I don't see how it's rated false. Just because they claim "well this is how we do things" doesn't make what they have been doing for years any less fake. I understand they

One thing I find weird about people who are obsessed with the Russia scandal is that they seem to believe that if "involvement" is proven, it's over for the trump administration. I really don't understand that at all bec

What If i told you in that report in which "17 agencies all agreed that Russia did it", one agency only had moderate confidence (50%~ chance) and it was the NSA.

Anyone with a bit of insight into ME politics know if this is a big deal?

They realize that they don't have a chance with this current congress to get them to change the laws to benefit their business model. I guess they will just have to suck it up and build some peering infrastructure.

I'm no fan of Telsa but I feel like any large company with a decent PR team would be a little anxious with an employee suing you and talking publicly about it. It's their job to make the company look good so it would seem logical

Anyone here know a good alternative of chrome based on V8? I personally still can't bring myself back to FF due to V8.

Is there many cases where you sue your employer, go make public statements about the case and still have a job at the end of the day?

So they think that they can just replace that role with social media? Wasn't the whole issue with newspapers in the 2016 election was they relied far too much on social media and ended up in a bubble? I don't see anything in the a

This is something Ive been tracking in the US for a few years even though I live in Australia. It's painfully obvious why it's been suppressed for so long. All you need to is look at who the top advertisers with news organisations

> You believe the leaker is a hero. But what you are saying is that he hacked into his employers email accounts and stole their emails then distributed that information to a third party. What do you think should happen to trump leaker?

I think ill wait till a government agency can corroborate this, considering the current political climate I don't think you can trust a the conclusions of a hired company.

To say they changed it for no reason is omitting the state of the roll out at that time. The budget was already blowing out beyond 2x the cost, they were behind on their revised down goals, they missed wireless numbers by 90%. The only posi

I get your point but at least you get the 1% GDP gain, what upside is there to shitting in your drinking water? It's few steps closer?

I don't think drug offenders should be put in prison since it's a victimless crime. I think child porno while much more serious does invoke some of that chain of reasoning. To me there is a big difference between a guy who found s
