The whole things sounds vaguely Soviet to me. A show trial that various people have used to progress their careers. And I'm at a loss as to how society remaining vigilant about these sorts of abuses actually prevents them from happening.
The poor people in Texas have no real choice here though do they? I mean what are they going to do, elect a Democrat? Come on now.
I'm not sure they fail to realise that. I think they know their voters love that performative crap. Not achieving anything useful is part of the plan isn't it?
Disney paid a lot of money to get those laws passed. They're entitled to a return on their investment.
Brittania send me a pack of cd's in the 1990's for free. It was almost pretty cool, but then I'd click a link in an article and be prompted to insert disc 6 or whatever and have to wait 40 seconds or more for it to load. Everyone I showed it to said "Wow, that's neat. Oh, wait, no it's not".
It's a terrible thing that those are the two options Americans have for governing their country.
Well yes. This is America working as designed. Who are you going to elect that might change it?
If people can't make lots and lots of money from music, then no-one will ever make music, just like they didn't make music before copyright was invented by Sonny Bono.
When I read: "It is a sad day for our country and our democracy..." I thought to myself that democracies don't actually work like this.
Wow. That guy is hilarious isn't he? He seems to take pride in being wrong.
So what was Scientology selling? I might be in the market for a new cult.
The key thing to remember is, your very structure of government was created in the 18th century and hasn't been seriously reformed since. Riders are a terrible idea and should done away with. Lame duck sessions should not have survived the invention of the aeroplane.
I think those are the old rules. If I remember right Mariah has to lay siege to the Princesses' castle with at least one trebuchet for her claim to succeed.
I prefer to think of it as "Bucaneering" myself. Nothing in the article looked like particularly convincing reasons for Russia to not go ahead, if copyright infringement is actually one of their plans. Once the Ukrainians have finished with them they'll negotiate some sort of surrender in return for a whole lot of natural gas and oil I would imagine. Promising not to copy Spiderman DVD's will be Clause 37, Paragraph IVB.
You need to send me $40 in cash for your login to work.
Why stop there? Why not tear down the whole stupid 18th century mess that passes for government in the United States? Go on, you know you want to.
Does anyone think electing police officers is a good idea?
I'm a bit confused about the phrase "outside of goosing stock value". Isn't that the only point of these deals?
Always surprised by how someone so obviously into organized crime and vastly profiting from it got to be vice president. I would love to see some evidence of this.
