The kind that know that a busy time for taxi services is when bars/clubs close?

How does it make Uber different from any other taxi service? They show up when there is demand.

I am sorry, how is it that your cities are entitled to this money? Aside from bribing politicians and ensuring fat paychecks for taxi companies, how does it bring any benefit to the people using public transportation?

So you are either shilling for taxi companies or politicians. Either way you failed to explain why this is a problem.

The only thing the Mayors are worried about is the fact that it is a tax revenue stream for them. Regulatory capture allows taxi companies to charge extortionary fees, which are payed in taxes and "campaign gifts" to local politicians.

While I am not against Uber and Uber drivers paying their fair share of local taxes, all these local chieftons are worried about is their paycheck.

How about the second Thursday of last week?

It is ok if a government official sells state secrets, or gives preferential treatment to industry for money. This is the reason why they get high power government jobs n the first place. Look at the FCC, for instance. Their chairman is directly owned by industry. It is only plebs like Snowden that get prosecuted.

I will call you yesterday and let you know.

Hospitals are required to submit data to health departments for public health reasons. This data is sent by requirement of law.

Sending it to a marketing third party is a big no-no due to HIPPA

That comment does give some sort of insight into the insanity of these people. Something he saw on TV makes him think Dr Kaku is a proponent of magical healing energy?

Your examples only apply to people being paid hourly. Work until the job is done, you get paid until the job is done. People on salary really should get the fuck up and leave when the time is up. How is it my problem if the company is too cheap to hire enough workers to get the job done in the time allotted?

Many salary have things like on call and emergency times that they do not get paid for. In return their salary is compensated, bonuses paid, or other amenities to keep the employee happy. If the company does not compensate properly... the employees walk... usually to their competitors.

In your scenario, the company is rewarded for squeezing their employees and having them stick around "until the job is done", since the get free labor.

Women in the workplace has lowered your standard of life?

I despise feminism as much as anybody, but holy shit man think about what you are saying, you sound like an idiot.

Think about the amenities people lacked back in your 1950's golden years. Now some people might say that the pre-technology era was indeed better, and I wont argue that they don't have a point... But most of those people would not be willing to give up their computer, modern car, modern home, modern television.

Shit, you are complaining you want to go back to the 50's on THE INTERNET. A thing that just would not happen without our modern economy.

Because the school paying for team shirts is the same as building a fucking stadium and all the infrastructure for Football.

I think you are not aware of how amazingly vast most of the United States are. Unless you live in a major city, you are going to need to move to go to a university.

And the fact we are in an intentionally shit economy keeps everyone on edge.

And you will be told you have to come in on those days because the company isn't doing well, and not put it on your timesheet in order to not get your boss in trouble. Failure to comply will show up in your next raise... if you are lucky enough to be employed by then.

Quantum Energy Generator. Now that's the stuff.

I skipped around the video and the best part is at 9:20:
"When I stand in that lab, I can feel the magical presence of the QEG."

I hope that they are using the money to go beat everyone who donates to it with a stick.
