Who cares. If it can drive for six months out of the year that's still an improvement. Moreover you should see a decrease in accidents for those 6 months. It isn't wise to initially shoot for 100% coverage over all conditions. It's much smarter to cherry pick just the sunny days with no snow/ice.

Clearly time is not a factor in your efficiency calculation

I wish I had mod points to mod you up. I uninstalled Mozilla / Firefox when they decided that donating to a "non-politically correct" cause years ago was grounds for being pushed out despite said individual having contributed so much. I just can't get behind any organization that does that, even one I had formerly liked as much as Mozilla. I really don't care what your stance is on about any topic, to get pushed out because of it is wrong if your work is quality. Employees are there for their contributions, not their political opinions. Sadly daring to say this might make me the latest target for the SJW Jihad.

I keep hearing that the economy is fixed but the middle class is smaller than ever in recent history and continues to dwindle. This economy is about as fixed as a car that has a working heater in the drivers seat but all other vents are broken leaving little or nothing for the other passengers.

If only he was LBGT then he could join the bandwagon of being a victim of discrimination for someone refusing him some service. That's been all the rage the past few months.

By many measures including inequality, public infrastructure, primarily exporting agriculture, bought and paid for politics, etc the US *is* a third world country

There can be more than one villian ;-)

Are you seriously arguing that lawyers are humans with feelings as regards their profession? You're too funny :-) Based on far more references than I could ever cite they long ago sacrificed their humanity in the name of war on terror / drugs / civil forfeiture / etc. The computers might at least get some of the obvious cases right like the Bill of Rights if we're being more serious or this case that the humans missed if we're looking for obvious mistakes: http://theweek.com/speedreads/...

Two wrongs don't make a right. The goal is not to argue that Democrat is worse than Republican (or vise versa). If you're still arguing who is the lesser of two evils you have fallen for the ruse. Be smarter than that. Both parties are bad, neither party will help / improve things / save us. The only options are 3rd party or, more likely over time, some flavor of revolution. Citizens United all but guaranteed that simple voting won't be the answer.

Oddly enough yes. Don't believe me, check with the family court system and see the lopsided numbers and seemingly infinite stories of how bad a deal a dad gets.

Not for long with the current over usage of antibiotics.

The reality is that both posts are correct. The 1% cheats the system and should be dealt with as well as welfare dead beats that drain the system. The sooner we get past arguing which is worse and instead try and be rid of both parasites the better off we'll be. The middle class is getting a raw deal from both the 1% and the non-working poor.

To be fair you see a lot of that on both right and left. Very little critical thinking desired by the powers that be, on either end of the spectrum.

Resorting to name calling is essentially admitting that he's got a point you can't refute but don't like. I certainly didn't detect hatred. You mad bro?

I'm not sure that's true. I've known too many people who were content doing absolutely nothing. They tend to be the disability types, always long on excuses and short on anything useful. Making people work for their wages makes sense. That's why I support a universal bonus income for people who work (coupled with a minimum wage to make sure that the bonus doesn't become a new way for the 0.1% to screw over the rest of us). The other half of making work people work is always having something for them to do. That's why I support the notion of work centers where people can show up and work is always available. It's the answer to the situation of telling someone to get a job when jobs aren't available.
