The problem is cost, which electronic voting solves to some degree.

I think the takeaway is that IQ is not comparable between individuals, but is comparable between points in time of one individual.

Sure, and now everyone knows to shred documents more thoroughly than Enron did. Although I agree. A company should be managed such that moral transgressions that happen in lower le…

Thanks, fixed. Learned a new thing today.

To what end? Xi Jinping can just wait until the next president to negotiate away the tariffs. The public certainly hates them. Right or left, I don't see how anyone can see these s…

Arbitration keeps the court system less full. It has a purpose that everyone ignores. How about solving the underlying problem that brought about arbitration: courts being saddled …

I'm saying this more in regard to the current crop of candidates because it's more obvious and egregious that there are some running for President right now that are doing it for a…

The only problem with elections right now is Citizens United. Does anyone honestly believe that the Democratic nominees on the left are all running because they think they can win?…

Books are low-margin. They're not profitable enough to sell on their own most of the time.

4chan doesn't exist to make a profit though. It only needs to get enough money to keep the lights on.

There's no way that parent drinking behavior isn't a strong indicator too.

Drats! We were so close!

Which is totally reasonable. You can't follow two sets of laws at once.

"Social justice" doesn't mean anything. It's, at best, a metaphor. Those words don't mean anything apart from the movement because otherwise, there would be a social government and…

Yes, let's all downvote the best representation of the prevailing opposing opinion. Wouldn't wanna have a balanced argument about this now.

If no one fights off the Somali pirates, then no one can sail their shipping boats through those passages, and the US turns a net profit by fending off the Somali pirates because n…

I'm not saying America doesn't do any racketeering. I am saying that they get the job done though, and the job sucks.

The implicit argument is that it takes 10 years to do this. Is that how it works in reality? If it was a month, no one would care.

Let's be clear. Being the world's military titan is not a desirable job. Someone has to fend off the Somali pirates, but it's not glamorous and everyone benefits equally from it (a…
