    Obama tried to apologize to Japan for Hiroshima

    The issue here isn't even the bombing. The issue is that Japan has already apologized for their Imperialist government. They've gotten over it; Japan and the U.S. are allies and it's water under the bridge. This would be like present-day Germany apologizing to Israel for the holocaust. It's a...

    We are the 53%!

    These people seem to have all made horrible decisions and are somehow proud that they manage to pay income tax when they are treated like slaves and can barely survive...they should be taking advantage of the deficit while they can.

    It would be best if the legal tender status of the dollar were repealed.

    Of course the value of the dollar is an illusion. Everyone realizes that when they try shrooms. The important thing is that most people don't realize that, which gives it a very real value. I actually agree with you on the point that central banking is a failure (at least, I think you...

    It would be best if the legal tender status of the dollar were repealed.

    Look up store of value, unit of account, and medium of exchange to understand why paper money exists.

    What happend to Due Process?

    Didn't this panel of people essentially comprise a quick and speedy trial? They had all the evidence they needed. Al-Awlaki was a self-professed terrorist and a global threat. He sentenced himself to death. Under the protective principle of extraterritorial jurisdiction, the killing is authorized.

    Bernanke says U.S. economy close to faltering

    Bernanke needs to shut the hell up and stop messing up any chance of recovery with his press releases.

    If China is our enemy...

    China is communist in name only. They use the idea of socialism to unite their people, but it's really a controlled capitalist society.

    Worst time spent in a game.

    Black & White 2. It was like they scooped the brains out of the AI and replaced them with ice cream. All the good things about the first game were gone. And Peter Molyneux is such an asshole - he promised so many awesome things and even SHOWED them in previews, but they just weren't there.

    Misleading thread title. You should reverse "church" and "jail."

    Another day, another female teacher accused of having sex with a student

    Idk where you guys grew up, but where I'm from people weren't having sex til 17-18. A lot of my college friends didn't lose the v-card til around 18. And I'm not talking about just geeky engineers - some of them are hot chicks. I have a pretty attractive friend who's 21 and a virgin.

    School suspends kid for voicing opinion in opposition to homosexuality

    I'd be pretty annoyed if I had to look at a photo of two dudes kissing in class too. It's just not relevant. I don't have anything against gay people - I just hate how a lot of them try to show off the gayness. Nobody wants to see a straight couple making out in public either. Well, most people...

    New Forbes 400 richest has some good news...

    Marxism and socialism are excuses for those who aren't willing to use their brains. Marx barely worked his whole life, and he made a living off the profits of capitalism.
