  1. Herp derp yourself. Setting ceilings for prices isn't the Gov't taking over the process entirely.
  2. Yeah, because everything else the Gov't has managed has done so well. Post Office, VA Hospitals, Obamacare...
  3. Guess you'll be able to gloat then.
  4. Don't Bring Me Down
  5. No Red Pandas here - only Commie Bears...
  6. Just remembered that I used to have a canned reply to anything I did that someone questioned me about (why did you do that?) - "I'm a guy, it's my job".
  7. I like what he's done for the economy & jobs, but considering nearly everything else, that's roughly akin to what they said about Mussolini with, "Well, he made the trains run on time". We do need some sort of change in immigration, not to forcefully exclude any group or person (unless warranted), but to keep track so that we know they haven't been taken advantage of because of being undocumented. I don't think we necessarily need to be part of the Paris accord, instead we should go beyond it & lead the world. I worry that, as far as the economy & jobs go, the Dems will get elected & "fix that". I don't see anyone so far in either party that I want to see as POTUS, but I have no idea who the Libertarians or Greens are this time around. I don't want the Gov't involved in healthcare beyond reigning in costs. Legally abolish the pricing menus used by hospitals & put extreme limits on what Big Pharma can charge for life saving meds. Gov't has never been any good at running businesses. Same goes for Insurance companies - a good deal of healthcare costs are inflated because if a procedure really costs $X, the insurance company comes along and says "we're only going to pay you $X - Y", so the healthcare provider boosts the cost to $X + Y to recover the difference.
  8. Jewish calendar has it as 5780.
  9. Yardbirds covered Muddy Waters, Chicago & Keith Emerson (Night Hawks soundtrack) covered the SDG version.
  10. So - you're saying...
  11. Article is 8 years old, but provides proof that the name was being used. It may have been "officially adopted" since.
  12. IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT YOU CHOSE! (in the voice of The Rock) There was no year 0.
  13. The decade doesn't end until 12/31/2020. There was no year 0, the first year was 1. (ignoring all that B.C.E./A.D. stuff)
  14. But are you the Chairman?
  15. Nope. Guess again.
