    Because love takes time, and money is time in this society. Takes a lot of money to have friends, and most men are actually to poor to afford friends. That's included in the price …

    Renting out the market one could say. And therein lies the problem.

    Meg Whitman almost bought the Governorship of California because somebody wrote an auction program. First mover.

    That's funny, because Canonical's business model is based on anti-social behavior.

    The police, and common culture, protect capital above all else. This is a capitalist society first and foremost. The status quo, the police state, and the corporation are all prote…

    Culture can be, but should not be thought of as shared values. The more accurate way to think of it is shared delusions. Their is nothing in "values" that is actually truth, just e…

    Simply a kinder, gentler power structure. Not anything the US government hasn't pretended to be working toward for years. All it is is treating citizens as "one of your own" instea…

    That's why we're not arguing. Art is like fun, I know it when I see it.

    An person who pays others to create their work can be called a lot of things, but artist is not one of them.

    Definitely the cutting edge of Government thinking. Seriously. The message is "you can change nothing".

    So nothing's changed, the status quo remains the most important thing. Shocking. As to why, politics and the love of power. Nothing new.

    You misunderstand the point.

    It is if the market wouldn't exist without people being forced to work at night. The difference seems to be very hard to understand.

    But to think people decide to work because either they want things or because the mass media convinces them too is really missing the point of the issue. Maybe that's why you or I …

    That's not his point. He's saying people buy pizza at night because they are unnecessarily working at night. Selling pizza at night shouldn't be necessary because its an artificial…

    People only have trouble finding others to honestly help them when they can't honestly share the rewards of the work. Slaves will always rebel in any way possible.

    That's true, but I draw the line at people creating a higher life form, and that's what it would take to replace programmers.

    Finally some damn sense on this topic. The whole "programmers will be automated away" is just a scare tactic to slow down the automation of what can be automated. People scared and…

    In a capitalist, caste system society this phenomenon is known as "freedom".

    There is a fundamental problem with the goals of the governments education system and the goals(or point) of the enterprise. They appose each other because at a fundamental layer t…

    Ignorance is bliss. Nothing new. The more extreme edge is the protective power of delusion.
