The green party only exists because the GOP keeps giving them money. The only time anyone ever hears a damn word out of them, is when they're showing up to split the Dem vote for the GOP.

Down right idiotic. I'm all for some better gun control, but this is just a stupid idea.

If Texas wants to put a bounty on women, we should be able to put a bounty on guns. It'd be a lot more effective too.

Stop hosting them and set up a permanent Olympic village in Greece with international funding. Standardized facilities and courses.

It would be impossible to build today by any means. Not because of any technological problem. Physically it could be done rather quickly, as others have posited. The problem is that you could never combine the political and economic will to complete it.

It's the same reason it would be easier to colonize Mars than to fix climate change. There's a half dozen robots on Mars that will do whatever you tell them. On Earth, there's 7 billion assholes who think they have a better idea of what to do.

You're not working against inflation, you're working against the 7 billion other people who want your food, shelter and luxuries.

The problem isn't the value of your currency, it's your lack of bargaining power in the face of competition and entrenched interests.

If I remember right the cable only runs for a fraction of that distance. The missile goes up long enough to let the operator see and lock the target, then goes to self guidance for the rest of the trip.

I'm betting garbage trucks actually end up being first. A half dozen trucks per human monitor sitting back at the station, with two guys in a pickup to run out to any problems.

There are no good guys in the middle east. Only civilians that are angry about being shit on.

Don't bother, if they can't leave a message, you didn't want to talk to them.
