Really high welfare payouts? Check. Significant amount of the GDP on military spending? Check. 1 in 4 of the workforce work for the government? Check. Vast amounts of government subsidized housing? Check.

Seriously, compared to Canada, the US is positively socialism even though republicans like to call Canada socialist/communist.

In Hawaii, you can get 60k on welfare.

Don't know. Can your boss set your salary on a whim after asking a bunch of random strangers what he should pay you?

They expect privacy in the sense that there would be nobody (other patrons) taking photos or video of them within the theatre.

I don't think you understand the problem. They are not banning them for piracy. They are banning their use for privacy of other patrons. They have to look out for the interests of the majority of their customers.

Obviously, they don't consider the glasshole demographic to be worth the effort to target. In a nutshell, they don't want your business.

Konfabulator was written by a guy who worked on Copeland at Apple. Not only did he steal the ideas of widgets from Copeland and Opendoc but he also stole themes from Copeland when he released Kalidescope theme engine for Mac OS 9.

Right, because the current administration never leaked information on US spying operations abroad. Nope. http://www.pbs.org/newshour/ru...

So which racist and misandry company do you work for so we can all avoid buying their products and services? Tell us so none of you can be there much longer.

Trains in Vancouver are driverless and have been that way since their introduction in 1986. Oh the humanity.

The idea of requiring a driver's license to "ride" in an autonomous car is stupid. What's the point if you need to be able to drive?

I don't think you understand how healthy capitalism is supposed to work. Employees of HP are not only providing goods are services but area also potential customers of HP products and services. When you cut and cut and cut, you end up with nobody being able to afford the products your company offers. The lost jobs also have a ripple effect in the local economy. Why don't you stop being a hypocrite. You want to keep your job right? Why should you get to keep yours?

At some point, cutting jobs have a negative effect on your bottom line over the long run.

I DON'T CARE. Their app on iOS sucks and I have no interest in any sort of kind. I don't live in the US so I don't have a "PRIME" account either. The US DOJ is making things more difficult for non-americans to access content.

I think you are confused. Do you work at the DOJ by any chance. The agency model removed control over pricing from the vendor and gave it to the publishers. That means that Apple had no control over pricing.

Wow. From the tone of your post, you seem to be a firm believer in extra terrestrial life and you have the nerve to critique a belief in god? Your attitude reeks of a low self worth and a low value for humanity in general. You are like a beaten wife of a stockholm syndrome sufferer who no longer thinks they are not worth the attention of a creator. Ironically, you equate the belief in a personal god as requiring a massive ego and yet humility is what is generally required of believers.

You apparently speak out on religion out of a great deal of ignorance. You seem to have almost no knowledge on the matter.

Seriously, your anti-human attitude is repulsive. There is zero evidence of life on any other planet let alone intelligent life and no evidence of other universes either. You seem to have an awful lot of "faith" in things you cannot prove for an atheist.

It is you who seems to have the large ego since you have taken upon yourself to define what a god should be and how that god should act towards humanity.

You are so eloquent. Where did you go to school? Get back to us with a larger vocabulary and avoid using insults and slurs. Then and only then will your opinion be worth hearing.
