Is there a school house rock video explaining in song the differences?

Petitioning the government for a redress of grievances and civil disobedience are two different things albeit similar.

Maybe this was a good thing for previous generations but in my experience, no. Why should I be loyal to company that will not raise my salary to market value or account for inflation, will lay me off at the drop of a hat, or has no path to further my career within the company (or career change)?

It would be great to be able to have the loyalty the boomers had to their employers but I think with most companies (especially in IT) IT personnel are treated like cattle. Why would I want to be loyal to that type of treatment? Only a deluded naive person would IMHO.

Maybe if you took a class that helped bridge the gap between finger painting and programming. You just have to learn how finger painting applies to programming and once you do your programming skills will increase. Everything is related to finger painting because it is art and a reflection of society as a whole, and that affects your programming unconsciously. /sarc

Although, i have seen that taught in an art history class. Art history affects everything because culture.

You should tell that to Justice Scalia. He seems to think so.

Citizen United is predicated on the idea that Corporations are people therefore they have the same legal protections as citizens. As you pointed out, if you agree with that premise then it would follow that you should not be able to restrict which corporation can spend money in politics. This underlying idea, that corporations are people, is not new and has been around as judicial precedent since the founding of the republic.

Do you think that corporations should be able to influence elections despite their inability to vote? What is stopping the citizens that make up those corporations exercising their rights to express their opinions?

Money in politics is not a good thing. I don't think any one disputes that. What is disputed is that non-voting "people" are controlling the dialogue because of their vast reservoirs of cash.

How do you reduce the blatant corruption and bribery infecting all levels of government? http://abcnews.go.com/Blotter/... https://www.youtube.com/watch?...

That sounds like Food Babe logic. If you can't pronounce the chemicals that make your food it's bad for you and don't eat it!
If a prophets name doesn't sound "prophety" enough they are not a prophet.

tweaks to models to adjust for observations/measurements (and adding previously unknown variables) == whole theory is wrong because models are not 100% accurate

Oh, wait. you adjust your theories to fit preconceived notions rather than adjusting to observation.

At least they can communicate effectively at how well they are cleaning dishes.

I can pick up a pen and paper too but I don't think anyone wants to see that kind of instant gratification.

Kids on your lawn again.. amiright?

Good god man. What have you done? The robots will now know that there is inherent roboticism in our media now. The end is nigh.

How else do I tell people how to do something so I don't have to? I have no idea what engineers do or how they do it and I don't want to know! Engineers can do it yea sure but that's boring. *I* have imagination, and vision (and I saw an episode of Dr. Who last night!). Engineers should just listen to me, obviously. /snark

That's what the government wants you to think!

Right there, do you see it? That small pixelated unrecognizable area next to that rock. Must be aliens.

Protip: If you zoom in on the pixelated area the evidence that it is aliens become clearer. The more you zoom the clearer it becomes.

sauce or it didn't happen.
