Another misconception, you are looking at the effect of a higher productivity - fewer work hours and then you decide that it is the cause of it.

I live in Germany on and off for half a decade now, so I can tell you this: it is the capital savings and investments that make Germans so productive, they have the savings that allow them to acquire/build the tools and train management and afford investments into technology that make their workers more productive and the more productive workers can work fewer hours. Unproductive workers can work a thousand hours and not be as productive as productive workers at a tenth of that time due to the difference in capital savings and investments.

you know, love or something, it's the latest fad in the movies like Interstellar.

what 'math' questions make into any IQ tests? Actually I think IQ tests are subjective rather than objective on the more complex questions specifically because they are not math but in many casee intuition on complex pattern matching.

The inability to do well on those is more interesting, more indicative of lower intelligence than specialized knowledge.

There is nothing more noble that creating opportunities for work for people who cannot create them for themselves. That's literally allowing people to survive on this planet where they couldn't figure out how to survive on their own without the employer.

The only people who should be careful are socialists/fascists and all types of dictatorial assholes, once they destroy the private sector there will be no jobs and then you'll know what it's like to live without anybody creating any opportunities for you not to be a subsistence hunger/gatherer and people with mental issues will not be doing that well under those circumstances compared to the others at all.

Wrong, a wealthy society is wealthy despite the government it has taking advantage of the wealth generated by the private sector.

Governments do not generate any wealth and there is nowhere to extract the wealth for a government of a society that has no wealth in the private sector. Wealth societies precisely appear as anarchies, USA was as close to an anarchy as it gets during the 19th century industrial revolution simply by the virtue of the tiniest of governments in the world up until that time.

Exploiting people? As in creating possibilities for people to work, to become useful in a society and to give meaning to many where they had little before, to make them feel useful and appreciated, to give them a way to earn a living while at it...

so 'exploitative', do you wish nobody ever created any businesses and offered jobs in them to others?

Wrong completely, but understandably. You look at the effect and believe it ti be the cause. A wealthy society grows cancer that is government, which steals the wealth, calls it 'taxes', creates a number of monopolies that are government propped and protected, which makes it look like infrastructure only can happen because of taxes.

The reality is that it was the wealthy economy that built the infrastructure, except the government destroyed competition and private initiative, making the infrastructure inefficient.

Poor economies cannot afford as much wasteful building as wealthy economies build due to theft called 'taxes'.

The result is that you are looking at inefficient glitter of a wealthy economy, that is overburdened with theft that is taxes and think that the economy is wealthy from the theft that is taxes. The reality is the opposite from what you believe.

Well, graphene seems to possess all of the properties of a silver bullet, it can filter water, store energy, cure cancer, establish world peace, so I would say a bullet and bulletproof vest out of this stuff will have to both, kill and save from being killed, generating enough uncertainty field, which would cause a temporal rip in the non graphene fabric of the Universe and taking the world back in time before the experiment takes place. Actually we are already in the 26th iteration of this loop. The interesting thing is that if you wrap yourself in a graphene sheet, you will stay anr not move back in time with everybody else, but the probabilistic shift of the Universe can cause you to jump into different parts of space without any speed limits, since I have a graphene sheet, I have already travelled to 15 differrent galaxies this way (the other times I was simply moved from the computer to the couch, to kitchen and to a girl's shower room, I am recording these important observations on my graphene based videocamera.

Fuck governments and Mega governments, I say break up all governments and do not touch private enterprises.

This is like a government coming out saying that a person should be dismembered or a family should be divorced because it's just 'too strong'.

Machismo has nothing to do with it, a person has the right to protect himself with deadly force when attacked and should not hesitate once it's a full frontal attack, do not leave the attacker capable of returning, coming from behind, coming after you later, take care of it once and for all right there and then and be done with it. Yes, taking another man's life is better than losing your own.

OMG, you fucking moron, learn something, read a book, go read some jokes, humour obviously is not your strong suit, but maybe you can learn to pretend you understand it, moron.

Funny you should talk about facts. Where do you get yours, Al Sharpton? You should stop for a moment and ask yourself a question: what am I doing with my life, moving through it in this much ignorance? Then you should engage your brain and do something useful, like read a book.

Quite the opposite, the evidence is overwhelming that the cop acted correctly and shot Brown in self defence as Brown charged at him and wouldn't be stopped by the first few rounds shot at his torso, which hit his hands first as he was running to the cop. The cop was attacked, beaten, Brown tried taking his weapon away from the cop and then the cop came after Brown. Brown turned around and charged at the cop. Multiple witnesses who were scared to come forward due to overwhelming pressure by the black leadership, Obama himself no less was on TV about this (and today as well), and everybody was ready to rip the cop apart. The 7 black witnesses who actually confirmed what the cop was saying saw Brown charging at the cop, he didn't have his hands up, he didn't yell 'don't shoot', all of this 'evidence' came out of the Brown's accomplice, who was with Brown in the store they robbed together just before this incident. In fact this cop was on the way to the store to respond to the emergency call and stopped Brown correctly. He was then attacked, beaten, weapon was almost taken away from him and then he was charged at.

That is what the jury in this case saw and that is why the cop will not go to trial, since there is no reason for it, it's a self defence case like many others that are obvious and there is nothing to charge the guy with.

7 witnesses (black) collaborated cop's story. Brown was running at the cop, after beating him and pulling his gun, which then went off in the car. The cop did the correct thing by trying to stop the offender and as the offender charged at him, the cop fired multiple rounds, hitting Brown in the hands and torso, which didn't stop the charge and so the cop finished off the offender by firing into his head. If somebody attacked me (and I am not a cop and never will be) and tried taking my gun away and tried beating me and then charged at me from a distance, I would have shot him as well, would have emptied the entire clip and the colour is absolutely irrelevant.

In this case Brown was shot by the cop for attacking the cop, beating the cop, pulling on his gun, which went off in the car, running away, being called to stop and then turning around and charging at the cop with the intent to kill him.

Any normal person would have shot Brown was he black or white or beige.
