Yeah, that's right, keep milking that government teat.

Who gives a shit if we are killing the country, OutLawSuit needs his welfare checks from his government job!

When I was in college I got one of those credit cards from people giving out free stuff at tables.

It wasn't because I wanted the free stuff, it's because I knew what you have found out: If you don't get establish your credit history early, it's going to be a bitch later.

I got an unsecured card with a limit of $200. I used it a little to order things online (a novelty back then), and kept it for a few years, until I could get some cards with credit limits in the thousands. I used them. Sometimes a little too much, but nothing I couldn't pay off. I don't have any credit card debt right now.

Paid off balances don't count against you as much as you are implying. The single biggest factor is length of revolving credit history in good standing. If you had kept your old card open, you'd have good credit right now.

Yeah it's a flawed system, I'll agree with that. But even 13 years ago, I could easily find out what I needed to know in order to "game" the system. Tell your kids to get those credit cards. They need to start establishing their credit history now; they should have started when they were 18.

The harder question is probably not whether to punt or not, but whether to take the field goal attempt or not.

Things traveling at 1000 mph tend to act more like fluids upon collision. Even if the ramp had a relatively mild slope, it would be hard not to just become a smear on the surface of it.

1540 feet per second is a respectable bullet.

Handgun rounds generally are around 1000 feet per second. 30 caliber carbine is about 1500 fps.

Yeah a .223 which is one of the small and fast rounds can push 2500 feet/second or higher. The fastest rifle rounds go around 3800... but still I'd consider anything over 800 fps to qualify as "faster than a speeding bullet".

People like you are why socialism doesn't work.

They aren't selling it "as fast as possible". There's a set amount they draw from the reserve every year.

It was wrong for the government to spend so much money distorting the helium market in the first place. Selling off the reserve is a necessary evil to correct past wrongs, and once it's complete, the market for helium will no longer be distorted.

We have this thing called "money" that is used to purchase scarce goods on a thing called a "market". It ensures that people pay a high premium for more scarce goods.

It lets people do the things they want to do, free from moralistic assholes like yourself trying to dictate how other people spend their time and resources.

Insulted on the Internet by a guy named after a cartoon character. I don't think I'll be losing sleep.

So what? So it's OK to steal $125,000 as long as they have more?

It's some weird logic that makes it OK to take from someone because they own a lot.
