    Rand Paul Filibusters Brennan Nomination

    Yea my respect for mcvain has been plummeting for years now. What Rand Paul did was great imo. He asked a simple question and got a bullshit answer, so he used whatever leverage he could and through sheer attrition, beat the answer out of the admin. He scored a whole bunch of points in my...

    Unemployment numbers- The ugly truth

    While that's true ricter, clubber lang is right. The participation rate continues to drop. And before you say it's because of the boomers retiring, I think denner was correct and you were not (last time we had this argument). A little stat straight from the BLS, is that the participation rate...

    Is F-35 going to be scrapped? Pilots say can't see out of cockpit

    Despite cost sharing it is still pretty damn expensive (maybe not relative to the raptor), and if we can't afford it ourselves then maybe we should put the program on hold until we can. My major gripe is sharing state of the art tech with other nations.

    Is F-35 going to be scrapped? Pilots say can't see out of cockpit

    I thought the F-18 replaced the F-14 and has been significantly upgraded since it was initially developed, and I believe the F-22 was designed to be the successor to the F-15 and F-16. Anyway, I still don't see the point of building advanced hardware and sharing it with others, it defeats...

    Is F-35 going to be scrapped? Pilots say can't see out of cockpit

    I didn't even read the article, but I always wondered what the point of the F-35 was anyway. I know they say it was to fill multiple roles and at a lower cost than the Raptor, but I also read somewhere that it isn't as capable. And I believe this was developed by and for the service of...

    Why does the market LOVE Obama?

    Good post Max. I'll bet most people don't give a flying fuck that the market is up as they probably have little, if any, money invested. The overall economy is clearly worse off than it was last time we got here. The market is up because there is NO WHERE else to get a decent return. So...

    Harvard Economist: Legalizing Drugs Suits Ideal of American Freedom

    Completely agree with this. Drug use would probably go up, because people who were scared of doing something illegal but wanted to try them, would. But most people who are prone to addiction.. already are addicted. I don't know about you older dudes, but my generation is full of druggies. I...

    Welcome to socialism! Greece downgraded from developed to emerging market economy.

    Lol the West did invent time travel. It's called.. socialism. Socialism: A throwback system of govt where life for the majority of citizens sucks more. Notably ruled by an 'elite' class that abides by a different set of rules than that of it's slaves, err.. subjects.

    Should he be banned for spamming ?

    This thread is full of lulz.. don't let it die. FC, the same 'guy' who rabidly defends gay marriage and calls the right intolerant for not supporting it.. wants to censor people he doesn't agree with. Talk about intolerance, not to mention HYPOCRISY. What a douche. I would definitely pay...

    20 Most miserable cities to live in, anyone see a pattern?

    Didn't I just say I support the right of a labor force to unionize. I just don't support these corrupt, power-hungry unions that exist right now. It's identical to my feelings on the federal government, I know it's necessary and I don't despise the fed govt.. just what it's become.

    20 Most miserable cities to live in, anyone see a pattern?

    I'm not trying to come across as religious about it, I simply see it as better in every way. I think it is fair for an employer to cut an employee whenever they determine it necessary. An employee who has had a steady job for 25 years should have his expenses pretty well taken care of. That...

    20 Most miserable cities to live in, anyone see a pattern?

    While I agree in theory, and wish this were the way it worked.. it really isn't the market which solely determines compensation anymore. I think you'll agree that legislation, taxation, and regulation all help to make the free market, not so free. Also, they have the (hopefully) unintended...

    20 Most miserable cities to live in, anyone see a pattern?

    ^ That isn't corporate raiding. And let's go over what employment is. A producer of goods or services (aka an employer) often needs help providing said goods or services to consumers. To fill this necessity they offer jobs to potential employees. This job is essentially a contract...

    The failure of liberalism can be summed up in 1 quote from Obama.

    No she isn't, we're paying for her kids, and she's living off the money. If we don't have to support her with our taxes then fine, have as many as you want. And yes I know some people actually need the money, but there is no excuse for this women having 20 kids when she can't support 1, or...

    Not surprisingly, you missed the point of the post. It wasn't about the kids but the parents.

    The failure of liberalism can be summed up in 1 quote from Obama.

    There is no perfect set of rules or laws that will keep everyone from dying, and we are ALL going to die anyway. In the meantime you should live as YOU see fit and not have a group of fallible people who think otherwise making decisions that effect your life, for you. The question itself...

    Like I said some of this shit IS actually being considered, but W didn't blow up the WTC. That didn't stop irrational pussies like yourself from crying about it and spewing it as if it were fact.
