Ditto what Wizard1956 said. Really appreciate the heads up!
You did a good job of setting the stage and describing the motivations of you and your group. And then showing how the OpFor used that thinking against you. I guess they are experienced at thinking outside the box.
[quote who="Daiwa" reply="12" id="3318320"]That's right - the SSA needs hollow points.[/quote] For the death panels no doubt.
[quote]Looks like the White House finally did something positive [/quote] Actually no. They "did" nothing. They are on the right side, but the ruling still stands. As the article says, it will take an act of congress to overturn the idiots in their own library.
[quote who="harpo99999" reply="355" id="3325770"] then WHAT is window 8(HATE)(nt 6.2)? harpo [/quote] A mistake?
[quote who="ElanaAhova" reply="7" id="3326994"] Its the federal reserve system,the biggest ponzi scheme in history. [/quote] I think that title belongs to SSA.
[quote who="Nichtganz" reply="1" id="3326786"] Can we discuss make-believe economics also known as Boehner Economics?[/quote] Sure - and non-economics like Obamanomics.
[quote who="DsRaider" reply="32" id="3325730"]This apparently puts me closer to Milton Friedman then anyone else. Not surprising really since I'm an economics student.[/quote] I think I got closer Raider (which is my favorite team in any event!). But good to see you are learning your economics well (I have a degree in the field as well).
The coming problems with China are not new, nor unexpected. They took the first step to get to the first world. But they are not taking the necessary steps. The housing crises is due to the simple fact of centralized management (google Ghost cities in china). The government still wants to control everything. It worked fine when you had companies from abroad asking to set up shops there. The government is supposed to regulate interstate commerce. But it does
My wife can do more on the Kindle Fire than I can on the Surface RT. I do not want a full blown laptop, but a pad that I can use in an airport (or even on a plane). Other than browsing the internet (restricted due to the limitations of the browser) and watching movies, there is not a lot that it is useful for. Even the iPad, the bane of windows - has more functionality.
The problem with the presentation - and most of the comments seem to ignore this - is that it assumes a static pie. So all of a sudden, someone is getting a bigger slice of the pie. And that is the way liberals want you to view it - the more someone gets, the less you get. But our "wealth" (as a nation) is not the same as it was in 1983. There is a lot more of it. So the "poor" are rich be even the standards of 1983. The wealthy are indeed more wealthy, b
Better to have a lesson taught in training than in real situations!
[quote who="ARESIV" reply="338" id="3325426"]Win Vista = NT Version 6 Win 7 = NT Version 6.1[/quote] Just goes to prove - never buy the dot 0 product, always wait for the dot 1. ;-)

[quote who="DrJBHL" reply="14" id="3325576"] You all realize that Homeland Security is charting all this, right? [/quote] YUP! But then they do not need this to harass me. ;)
[quote who="GirlFriendTess" reply="13" id="3324935"]PS – I think there is a world of difference between the thinking process (your post) and what the miscreants do and say in the real world.[/quote] I would modify your statement for myself to say "between thinking process AND what they say" versus what they do. But of course since most always say what they think, it may be redundant. And I have no use for either party.
[quote who="Savyg" reply="18" id="3324346"]It's more hover in the corner and move up or down, but I can't edit posts anymore [/quote] I will give that a try.
[quote who="Uvah" reply="16" id="3324326"]If you explain that it isn't working properly I'm sure she'll understand and her legal expertise is quite an asset in that regard. Hope it all works out for you. [/quote] I like your thinking! :-)
[quote who="Daiwa" reply="15" id="3324315"] despite sharing 4 sequential letters.[/quote] I know. My error.
[quote who="Xan" reply="20" id="3324299"]Disagree. [/quote] [quote who="Mmrnmhrm" reply="19" id="3324297"]If she was trying to get that kind of attention as Angie gallant she wouldn't do her dirty work under pseudonyms.[/quote] Xan and Mmrnmhrm - my response was poorly worded. She (Jane doe) does not want to be known. She wants her blog to get more exposure. So by mentioning her troll name, people go (the rubber neck syndrome) see what it is all about.</p
[quote who="starkers" reply="1" id="3323759"]IF I were going to steal a phone, it woudn't be an Apple one.[/quote] You do not steal phones. ;-) I saw the same article as Dr JBHL - and the story goes that they can get up to $300 for one! I find that hard to believe, but I guess they know where there is a sucker that will buy a used HOT phone for that amount.
[quote who="GirlFriendTess" reply="8" id="3323955"]Now if we gather the critters in a bowl next to a fire and I am starving to death, maybe I could find a personal use for them[/quote] With the exception of mosquitoes (no meat), all creatures serve a purpose - with the right preparation and cooking. ;-)
[quote who="GirlFriendTess" reply="10" id="3323967"] It never ceases to amaze me when one side of an argument feels enlightened enough to explain in detail the thought process of the opposition. [/quote] It never ceases to amaze me how much of their supposed knowledge is really just talking points with no substance either.
After my bad experience with the Surface, I will wait on the Windows Phone. I like the Android. I use to be a pure Windows Guy for the simple reason of flexibility. I am afraid Windows is moving to the closed shop approach which is going to kill it in my eye.
[quote]We all agree that when power is concentrated in the hands of a few, our freedoms are inevitably curtailed. [/quote] That goes for the government as well. While I agree with the premise, I do not agree with the solution. Indeed, the biggest threat to freedom is not business, but government.
