MNU=X-Com... take this as you will. Blomkamp had a lucky shot at a rare Jackson production while hundreds of spec-scripts with similar "Sci-Fi" issues are gathering dust in a network of Hollywood studios "referencing" agents; Tomb Taider or Resident Evil (sounds familiar?) -- that was still a direct interpretation of the Mythos game X-Com. Refer to this woca thread if you don't believe the usual yearly cinema comp

Call it an Utopic dream or the idealistic hope of inclusive & fair societies, everyone should *EARN* a taxable income. And all legal incomes should be taxed.

[quote]Can someone explain to me how in a system that is financed by taxes, which less than half of people pay "everyone" would pay for everyone's health care?[/quote] Let's presume 100% of people pay their income taxes. Who's working & being cured when sick? Those who need it. That's the Canadian model of Universally available public option. Nowadays, the Corporate industries are aiming to i

CNN has an ongoing series on specific details in the evening news lately (probably devised from this )... stay tuned, the propaganda machines are on the loose. You could even pull exact & categorized figures from this interactive data search engine by WHO.

[quote who="Mumblefratz" reply="222" id="2346282"]Here's a con you can add to the list that came up in the other thread. The reason proponents support health care reform is so that they can sneak in legislation that will allow underage women to receive abortions without parental approval paid for by the taxpayer.

[quote who="Aroddo" reply="178" id="2345438"]This is not about arguments pro/con health care reform. It's about the possible motives the pro/con factions might have to either support or fight it.[/quote] Duh - com'on. To even think about starting or continuing arguments, anyone needs motive. Both of which ride on a two-way street, heading for collision. Picky, are you? Motive=Money. Simple enough?

Minor scouts are represented by such constructors, it's obvious that the activity can only lead to rapid resources gathering while you colony-rush instead along with/against opponents. That's not AI cheating, it's an indirect "reserved" supply of pre-owned starbases that Majors eventually pick off. Even if outside any body's ranges. [e digicons];P[/e]
