The odds of a successful counter cultural movement are a little bit higher in the US, for some odd reason.
Because their culture values conformity more than individuality and they have a high degree of respect for elders - you wouldn't see them saying "Don't trust anyone over 30!"
My data is my loved ones, you insensitive clod!
(not!)
Ah, I just saw the "not!".
I was about to reply, "That's one hell of a porn collection!"
I was going to be the World's greatest karma whore!
illegal goods, illegal help, kickbacks, etc. It sounds like this economics professor thinks the answer is, they can't, and therefore all this crime and shady stuff will go away.
That's where the black market forms and uses:
1.Another country's currency.
2. Barter
...Until the power goes out.
Or when you step into the local titty bar. How are you going to put electronic money in her garter?
... a binder full of claptrap, and they still weren't right.
Got me through 'B' school.
Thugs? When I go online to buy tickets from an automated system as opposed to going to a window and buying tickets from a person - that has to be paid - I'm charged a "convenience fee" and other assorted junk fees that make the airlines look like frick'n amateurs. Actually, I'm not charged because I don't click on accept.
Over the past couple of decades, I've watched ticket prices sky-rocket. A $25 ticket back in the 80s should go for $50 or so inflation adjusted? Nope. They go for well over a hundred. And many of these acts aren't what they used to be, I tell ya. And the new acts? Pffft. The last time I went to a live show, I was very disappointed.
Your linked article is satire. But I didn't really know if it was satire until I read it through.
The terrorists have won.
Yes they have.
Just wait until they send a little girl with her vagina and rectum packed full of explosives that takes down a plane.
I wonder if Pistole has a nice 7 figure job lined up too?
Possession of child pornography is illegal. Possession of naked images of children is only illegal if those images are pornography.

I just had this discussion with a friend earlier today. The millimeter wave scanners don't even USE x-ray radiation, and the backscatter uses about 1/100ththe radiation of a dental x-ray. I asked my friend if she was going to stop getting dental x-rays, she said no because they only do that once a year. can't really argue with that level of logic.
Well yeah because radiation exposure is cumulative. You don't see the dentist or the hygienist in the room when they take the x-ray, do you? They're always behind a lead screen. And there was a case a few years ago - some flight crews were suing over the constant radiation from flying at high altitudes - don't know what happened.
This is a good one; even though his wording in trollish and flamebait worthy.
That's how you get attention. If it weren't, it would have made the press.
Old programmers never die, they just hit account block limit.
