A large portion of Americans are already driving around 85 mph on the highway, this would just make it legal (for those in Montana).

Yeah, people said that about Yahoo! and AOL as well. Now most people barely remember that they exist.

Yes, but are those economic benefits worth the loss of sovereignty? Why should people in the UK or France be forced to live by rules determined by the people of Germany (or any other nation)?

Google Drive / Google Docs are all included in that too.

All of your response had nothing to do with the issue in the article. None of those people were giving up money by doing what they did, at most they gave up a few minutes of their time. That is completely different than knowing that if you act like a jerk, you will be financially rewarded. All over the world, regardless of race, religion, gender, or nationality, the majority of people will go to great lengths to get more money.

You must work in a family business then.

This is why I've been saying for years that Android needs to take a page from Linux. Make the "skin" that manufacturers put on their phones a download via the play store (or a pre-installed manufacturer specific store) and let Google push all updates directly. That way users don't complain about updates and manufacturers can still put an awful skin on their phone.

The main thing I want is a heart rate monitor and calorie tracking. Everything else is just a bonus. Does it actually track calories burned based on heart rate? If so, I'll definitely consider getting one.

It's always funny to see those who've never interacted with the police in a professional manner claim that it's a "minority" that are criminal.

Thermodynamics has been proven false by medicine? Please, show these brilliant "articles". People who want to bitch about being fat without having to DO anything to lose weight are always claiming that "SCIENCE SHOWS I CAN"T HELP SITTING ON THE COUCH POUNDING DOWN THE OREOS!", yet it's never true.

It's completely true. Anyone will lose weight by eating fewer calories, this is a scientific fact that only idiots try to deny. While the number of calories each person needs to stay at a given weight vary based on height, gender, current weight, genetic factors, etc, it is a simple truth that by eating fewer calories, you will lose weight. You will lose weight faster if you combine eating fewer calories with increased exercise, but that doesn't change the fact that you will still lose weight without changing your activity at all and just consume fewer calories.

The difference is that the police work for us; we do not work for the police. Another way of looking at it is that an employer has every right to know where their employees are and what they're doing while they are on the clock - an employee does not have the right to know where their boss is and what their boss is doing while on the clock.

When the police stop behaving like criminals, I'll worry about your concerns. Why am I more worried about the police than some thug on the street? Because a thug can suffer negative consequences for their actions, whether via the justice system or vigilantism. A police officer who commits a crime will rarely ever suffer any negative consequences for their actions and they are often rewarded with additional paid time off and promotions for their crimes.

Well the problem was that Democrats wanted to use it to win elections - "If you don't vote for us, the oceans will cover the entire planet and we'll all die!!" Eventually, people will realize that it's horribly exaggerated and nothing major will even happen as a result of "global warming" / "climate change" / "whatever other terms are used because the previous ones didn't inspire enough fear".

I guess you haven't paid much attention to the news for the last 13 years. A much smaller force with often inferior weapons to what the typical American has access to has been holding the mighty US military at bay for over a decade. Then Chris Dorner (one man!) was able to essentially shut down a large part of California and took out several police officers. If just one man could wreak that much havoc, imagine what 100 or 1,000 with the same ordinary weapons could do? Hubris like yours is what caused both the Soviet Union and the US to fail in Afghanistan.
