Yeah. But unfortunately the money for Iraq and Afghanistan has already been spent.
Good luck getting even $4B for science based R&D out a Republican controlled House.
I'm sure that seemed like a stinging political commentary in your head.
You think that a commercial scale Thorium reactor could be developed and built for $4B? You're about an order of magnitude off.
I'm not sure why I'm bothering to correct someone who thinks that Obama created the TSA.
I was not a fan of Steve Jobs at all.
How many people do you think had a conversation with Jobs and left thinking "Man, that guy is stupid"?
There are plenty of dumb millionaires. Please name one dumb self-made billionaire.
We have hired women coders and they do as good a job as men.
When did those women first get interested in computers and coding? I'll bet 8th grade at the latest.
Go find a 50 year old waitress and turn her into a professional programmer. Then you'll have a point.
He was the head of Data Systems Development at Solomon Brothers. When that company got bought out, he started a company selling Bloomberg Terminals, which were extremely innovative. He parlayed that into the Bloomberg News service. He grew up middle class with no family connections or a leg up, and now has $33B. That doesn't happen to dumb people.
If you like Stephen Colbert, go watch Strangers With Candy. It was one of the first Comedy Central shows and it's just amazing.
His bank account will see a significant step up.
True, but I've noticed that the F2P games that use that model are now trying to entice players back into monthly subscriptions.
What games are those?
Once you're in, you find that you can't, for all practical purposes, go beyond a certain point without spending money and how much further beyond that you can go depends on how much you can afford to spend. It's why the derisive term is "pay-to-win".
Far too many gamers paint all Free To Play games with the same brush. Everyone should check out the games Loadout (FPS) and Paths of Exile (Action RPG). Both are more polished than many traditional model games. Paths of Exile has absolutely no way of paying for an in-game advantage. My objection was that their cosmetic items are obscenely priced. Turning your town portal from blue to orange is like 9 bucks. Adding a cosmetic lightning effect to your weapon is more than $20. Loadout offers an array of hilarious cosmetic stuff, plus short term double XP periods as part of a larger package. The thing is that a good player can earn 1500+ XP per match while a shitty player earns 500-800 per match. So a shitty player who pays for double XP isn't going to surpass a good player who pays nothing.
Nissan already offers that.

That can't be a good idea. Litecoin has steadily dropped from $25 to $11 during 2014, after briefly touching $44 late last year. I don't see any reason why the downward trend in bitcoin or litecoin price will reverse.
I can't imagine that a $1500 card plus electricity costs are ever going to pay for themselves.
Watch some video of what the insides of those factories look like. They employ a small fraction of the employees that worked in the old Detroit and Flint plants.
I watched a video about the Hyundia plant in Alabama. The chassis assembly line involves something like 30 people.
That would be the "automation" half of my comment.
