Wow you took a pretty big leap there, I guess I missed all of those people that the ranchers were killing and oppressing by lettings some cows eat grass in the middle of the desert.
If access to firearms increases the crime rate, then why is it that the crime rate has actually gone down while gun ownership rates have gone up? The U.S is an outlier on so many statistics I don't see how you can possibly conclude that Gun ownership causes violent crime. Guns don't cause crime...
That's great that these liberal arts degrees can be used to enrich your life, but why on earth should the government be paying for you to enrich your life. The world would be far worse off with no science and business majors then it would with no liberal arts majors. Most people I know with...
So wait its only 91% the same? What a huge disparity this needs to be fixed now! At this point dose it really matter? There are plenty of issues that are specific to me too. Men are more likely to drop out of high school, and less likely to get a college degree. Don't we have other issues to...
So they are only blocking the Name from resolving on the ISP's DNS server right? Couldn't you just use a European or some other DNS server and get around all of the blocks? Whats keeping the pirate bay from just continuously changing their name to priatebay1.com priatebay2.com etc... Seems like...
I am generally conservative and I listen to conservative radio maybe 3-4hrs a week. I do it mostly because I drive alot and I dont always want to listen to music. I largely see it as entertainment and semi-interesting, I dont really sit in my car and agree with everything they say, its just...
The Fed let the economy continue to deflate and even raised interest rates heading into the great depression. I think the Fed made the best choice they could by dropping the interest rates in 2008, though their quantitative easing a few years later was pretty pointless.
I shoot corrosive all the time, it really is fine just clean out your gun right when you finish, Ive heard some people bring Windex to clean out their gun with when they finish shooting, they just spray it down the barrel.
I agree that its been a huge issue to let the government dip into SS for extra cash, but if we built a system that was run independently of the government and had are more diversified portfolio then we may have been able to actually get some of that surplus back. We do kind of need that surplus...
If the invested in AAA rated bonds from a variety of sources including some corporate and international bonds they would have been relatively safe from this mess. How are things better now, do you thing the federal government has another 2+ trillion to give back to SS?
There will at least be another day or two of this as things get sorted and the fears of a double dip either begin to reside. I don't think were in for another recession, sure we have low growth but its not negative, and even the downgrade is really not that big of deal, hell bond rates went down...
They should have been buying high rated bonds from a variety of sources, other countries, and even high rated corporate bonds. Maybe then there would be some hope of getting back the 2+ Trillion that is owed to the SS trust and maybe we would have been able to make a decent return. Instead we...
Yes us gen-xers are so well off, that's why the unemployment rate for people 20-24 is 15%, its almost 11% for fresh college graduates. Education costs have gone up 500% in the last 25 years. I certainly don't know anyone in my age group driving a European car or that owns a big house or hell...
One of my teachers was talking about how when he graduated college many of his friends took a year off to go travel. They never worried weather or not they would be able to find a job when they got back. Now most college graduates are lucky if they can find any thing at all. Its not that I think...

We already have huge amounts of largely un-skilled labor to pull from more isn't going to help us it just ends up screwing the lower class more. The one benefit it does bring is that its more people paying into SS smoothing out that population bubble.
how do you plan on living without a job? student loans? also I second Vegas. I dont think id want to spend a week in the wilderness alone, maybe if you have some good friends that will go with that's possible.
If the U.S collapses then everyone else is going to be in bad shape too, not only that but you probably couldn't go anywhere because any countries doing better then the U.S would close their doors pretty fast.
yeah its learned, my brother is gay and dosent sound anything like that, there are few guys at my work I know are gay too that dont sound anything like that, its really just a stereotype.
If you know how to use the gun and you plan on putting some practice into it then sure go ahead and get it. Just because you played CoD dosent mean you know shit about how to use a gun. I tend to prefer a full stock, a shorter barrel would be better for home defense. Keep in mind that if you...
The program is being ended according to plan, the problem was no obama canceled the constellation program that was supposed to replace it and the next moon mission that was suppose to take place in 2025. Now we have to beg for a ride from the Russians, how pathetic is that. America is a country...
My dad didnt get his CS degree until he was in his 40's, I had a guy in on of my undergrad classes that was in his 60s even. Id say go back part time and if shit happens a year or two down the road you can go full time and burn through the degree.
Well as far as the growth rates goes, there were alot of outside factors that are going to influence the numbers alot. For example Europe destroying itself twice in just a few years and handing us the manufacturing base for the entire planet. Also what do you define as being successful for a...
What is your undergrad/masters in? Why go to law school now if your kid is graduating now it seems a little late for that, There is probably something out there that would be more practical and probably more enjoyable for you to do.
