    Liberal economists, and politicians, say taxes don't matter. In reality, they do. Hard to start a conversation there. We are all engines of karma

    The root of the question here, IMO, is - what does it mean to live in a civilized society? We are all engines of karma

    My experience has been different. And, yes, you're right, those that live that lifestyle do think it's cool, and there's a sub-set of those people that genuinely cannot see another lifestyle. Those people are outside the bell curve, and thankfully so. We are all engines of karma

    I think you're right, re: "marriage". I'm not a Christian, but I can't sit here and say I don't have reservations about state sanctioned marriage wrto gays. Does this mean they'll be able to adopt kids? Yes, probably in legal terms. Is that a good thing? Ahck, makes me twitch. I look at parents I know, and think they shouldn't have been allowed to have kids. I look at some committed gays I know and think their adopted-kids would have incredible advantages in life because of the accomplished individuals their parents are. Then, there are other "gay-couples" that simply want to fuck anything that steps in front of them. Incredibly tricky stuff here. We are all engines of karma

    Having lived in San Francisco for 3 years, I have met a lot of gay people. One of my college friends was gay, and he's one of the few people I personally call a "genius". Outside of the Castro, a lot of gays are monogamous. To not allow them to pass on the wealth they have accumulated from a life time together isn't reasonable. We are all engines of karma

    But, it's ok on a "government owned wall"? We are all engines of karma

    Let me repeat myself. I did read the article. And I read your initial post even more times. And here's the whole problem right now with people living off the government. Nobody cares. You have skin in the game, or you don't. We are all engines of karma

    My point? You, and folks like you, don't work hard enough. Nor do you seem to take risks that merit accomplishing the American dream. How much money do you, or your family, get from the government? Let's be clear here. We are all engines of karma

    quade, and his ilk, don't get this. Probably because none of them have worked hard enough to earn it. But, I'm just guessing here... We are all engines of karma

    Even more pathetic. We are all engines of karma

    You have confirmed my impression of you. We are all engines of karma

    From a -0.3 "anomaly" to a +0.3 "anomaly" in 30 years. As others have written, within reasonable normal variation. We are all engines of karma

    Fair point, re: the court system. I wonder how many times Glass-Steagall was taken to court? We are all engines of karma

    From this article: http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories/U/US_IRS_HEALTH_CARE?SITE=AP&SECTION=HOME&TEMPLATE=DEFAULT&CTIME=2012-08-02-15-56-44 Is it reasonable to expect Congress to pass laws that are unambiguous? It's seem Democrats specialize in ambiguous laws, especially this administration. Talk about uncertainty for businesses! We are all engines of karma

    It was originally referred to as the "God Damn" particle, because of the difficulty in measuring it. Got shortened to God particle for the journalists. We are all engines of karma

    I would agree that it's definitely moved beyond climate science into that realm. We are all engines of karma
