But he did that 10 years before the US invaded Iraq in the second gulf war! And we were still there 10 years later because he never lived up to the cease-fire agreement. No invasion of Kuwait and we never show up. ... and this is where it comes full circle back WWII. Hitler rebuilt the German Army ...

Crazy thought.

How about rather than messing about experimenting with how best to put money back into the economy we try not taking it out of the economy in the first place.

We are never going to get significant military help from any of the Euros save Britain. So it is really pointless to care what they think. I agree completely. However, my original post was really meant to express concern, not over what everyone else thinks of us, but over our own growing anti-ameri...

Will I get labeled as unpatriotic if I say that the above propaganda won't convince anyone to stop bashing the US? If the Europeans know their history, they know that we didn't enter WWII until there was an eminent threat to us in the form of an attack on US soil. We weren't fighting their war, we ...

I think anyone who questions how we fight our war should first remember how we fought their war: They can go here in Belgium: http://www.abmc.gov/images/ar5.jpg Or here in England: http://www.abmc.gov/images/bk5.jpg Or here in Luxembourg: http://www.abmc.gov/images/lx1w.jpg Or here North Africa: htt...

US Bashing

Why does it seem to be so popular to say that the U.S. is behind the rest of the developed world, specifically Europe. There seems to be a general belief that the U.S. is not up to snuff. Specifically, Socialistic government seems to be admired while the traditional US ideas of Liberty from Governme...

We currently have about 200 experiments running. Not to mention 50 states in America. The more government takes and redistributes the more sluggish the economies. Growth rates in Europe which is more redistributionist than America runs about 1% to 1.5% lower than America. The jobless rate has also ...

Re: Cheap Anti-Matter?

Not that this is a net power solution itself, but I wonder about potential synergies. E.g., http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antimatter_catalyzed_nuclear_pulse_propulsion ? Am I getting this right. Put some nuclear material next to this antimatter source and BIG BOOM! That easy? That is a profoundly sc...

Seedload. That's an amazingly right-brained speculation. As somebody who is almost retardedly left-brained, I can assure you. The notion that everyone you disagree with must be irrational is as irrational as the assumption that we can fix everything. The discussions here used to be science-based. T...

I find it so interesting how our climate is so similar to our economy. I find it so compelling how our reactions to climate cycles are so similar to our reactions to economic cycles. If the economy shows a sign of weakness, some people panic, assume we did something wrong to make it happen, and atte...

Not only will people be able to buy their own, but eventually people will be considered to be entitled to have their own regardless of how much they make. Financial Institutions, both semi-private and private, will be strong-armed into lending money to everyone and anyone because of the perceived BF...
