[quote] Comprehensive Reform demands NO preconditions: Immigration, racial, energy, financial, housing, medical, education, religious, S.S., Medicare and Medicaid to name a few … and how has all this been going? As far as I can see, this insanity IS what is preventing us from addressing the actual problems, go figure. I believe this unnecessary madness is intentional and politically driven for the un-expressed (?) purpose of promoting separation and segregation of the electorate to PRE

[quote]I guess there must be a reason you decided to talk about making mistakes because I didn’t. We are supposed to be talking about people here … no mistakes what? And since you are so adamant that this education is so vital to survival, what about the rest of our empirical data … you know the stuff not found between your covers? Or do you get to decide WHAT education is necessary or not too? There is no problem being human … just myriads of people who seem to HAV

Reply to What is the Truth? in US Domestic Stardock Forums

The real solution to our problem of being human is that people need to stop thinking that we have the responsibility to keep people from making mistakes. Mistakes are part of life and it's a form of education. When you take away this education you deprive people of valuable information that is key to their survival. (Metaphor)Once upon a time someone put their hands in fire and figured out that it burns and hurt their hand. Ever since people knew not to do this anymore because someone

Cool find but it's not exactly a give away if I can only install it once: "please do not register it again or reinstall it, otherwise the registered version would be turned into trial version." What if I I have to reinstall it for what ever reason? I will never understand why they do these kinds of tricks on people.

[quote]Seems we have disagreement on “Conspiracy Theories” here. I am sure it is just a matter of degree. But, if one is disposed to believe the expressed views of the Government and thus the mud-Stream Media, then a few assumptions are necessary. If one were blind, they would more or less have to believe that our worldly benevolent Government was populated by crusaders for the American People who were interested in forcing gifting whomever with the blessings of our conception of

Interesting story, now can you provide proof of these facts? Or am I suppose to take your word of this being fact? Sure I could search the Internet for proof but since you are the one claiming to "present" the facts, hows about presenting links to these facts while you're at it. Then maybe I can give a decent reply.

Reply to GOP … Business as usual in Politics Stardock Forums

Typical politics, I may lean Republican but honestly I don't expect politicians today to be what I wish they would be. I can only hope people continue to wake up and continue to push at those up there to eventually do what we think is best or we push them out and put someone we believe will. What we need to do is remember the stupidity they do now and hammer them when election time comes and teach them a lesson so those who replace them know what will happen to them too.

I heard a story on the radio the other day where there was a city where they were having a drought and the City officials asked the people to use less water to conserve and the people did. What happened was because the people were using less the City was making less on their utility bills and they did not like that. So they decided to raise the utility fee to make up for the difference in saving. Basically people were using less water but paying the same amount. As you stated, who was the gen
