On the other side, in FRANCE for example when they started to build the indigenous aircraft, they missed their deadline by 5 years, its still not done ( supposed to be done by 2004 I think) and overshot their budget by a few billion dollars. Its just an example of how projects are handled differently in different nations. Such inefficient execution can also increase the price of the end product.

There, fixed that for you.

-- the way the other players play has no effect on your odds of winning.

WRONG. If another player is playing poorly, he is affecting how the cards come out of the deck. For instance, if another player "hits" on a 20, and takes the Jack that would have (should have) accompanied your Ace, he has most definitely played in a way that affect your odds of winning.

In fact, most blackjack players are expecting you to play the "basic strategy" and will get miffed if you don't.

Ever pull out onto a highway in a car that goes 0-60 in like 10 seconds? It's fucking terrifying.

I've never had a car that goes 0-60 in less than 10 seconds. I've never been terrified while pulling out into traffic. Ever. You indicate that you drive like an asshole. If there were less of you on the road, nobody would have to be terrified on the highway.
