    What if in 100 years, robots can do all the work.

    The question is...how intelligent will the robots be? Will they be able to self maintain themselves? if something goes wrong with 1 robot, will the other robots know and try to fix it? If they are that smart, then they might be able to program themselves and learn from their environment...

    Some thoughts for the USD bears.

    First off...forget M1/M3. You cant trust any of those stats. The fed is the one that gives us this information and we all know how far we can trust the fed, right? Also remember there were a ton of real estate professionals out there in 2005-06 telling everyone that said housing was going...

    I should go to the pentagon and tell them that I'll get the gas to the troops for $300 bucks per gallon! A gas tanker holds about 9k gallons. I will ship the gas tanker(which costs about $120k) to pakistan which with shipping rates being as low as they are would not cost more than 10-20k...

    Do you Beleive in God ?

    McCain presses Obama to pardon black boxer

    As if the president doesnt have more important things to do besides pardon dead people for crimes they committed in the past. There is nobody alive today who was old enough to get pissed off at this story when it happened that they feel they should need "closure"

    Colorado Balloon Boy Named Head of GOP

    No...he would definately be a democrat. Thats because the kid was hiding in his favorite hiding spot while this was happening. McCain doesnt hide, yet Obama hides alot.

    Poll: Majority Of America Opposes Obama's Health Care Reform Bill 54% - 35%!!!

    Quit being all anti-socialist. If you dont want free healthcare, bailouts for corporations, and other goodies like that, maybe you all should move to a democratic country that is ruled by the people, for the people.

    Iraq says 85,000 violently killed, 2004-2008

    Wow...85k violently killed in Iraq in those 4 years. They just barely beat the United states as only about 68,000 people were murdered here in those same 4 years. So I guess the USA is still SLIGHTLY safer than Iraq. http://www.deathpenaltyinfo.org/murder-rates-1996-2008
