    German unions are way stronger than Brit ones. Could it be that the German govt protected their industry while Maggie was decimating it at home?

    The Brit car industry was dead long before China became an industrialized outsourcing nation. Try again.

    Exactly the opposite. I want a Thai massage from a beefy, middle-aged, well experienced masseuse. I find oil massage a waste of time.

    Again you reveal yourself. There are no dumb questions, only people who think they know it all...

    This is even funnier since philosophy has been a discipline for well over 2000 years.

    No, I am not a philosophy PhD, but I do understand that greater minds than yours or mine have pondered deeply the entirety of the human condition and only a fool would not endeavour to understand what has come before them, and only a total fool would call them "knuckleheads".

    I'd take your advise but I have absolutely no idea what you are on about. Defining the terms used in a debate is just standard procedure. The only one typing useless quips would be you. Or is it just that you are at a loss to define your usage of "laws" in the context of this discussion?

    What does this have to do with your post that bars would be a good idea now? My response was to visible restrictions to entry, not invisible ones.

    Yes, it very much is. The Capitol building is, theoretically, the greatest shrine to democracy in the world - the people's building. Barring the windows and defending it like a fort would be quite the statement about the state of US democracy.

    Hmmm. Has he filed an appeal with the courts? Otherwise just another bloviating attorney

    Do realize how strange this sounds? Every single person, in every single country in the world, incarcerated for any crime has "at one stage behaved politely and peacefully". What does that prove? Didley. The point of an investigation is to determine in there was a crime, not to determine if there was politeness.

    Alcohol was not my issue (cocaine). What I find fascinating about this thread is not one poster has acknowledged that recovery from addiction, by whatever method, is often deeply personal and rarely directly transferable. Even following a somewhat ridge program like AA, everyone's path to recovery is unique to them.

    I don't believe in driving on the right side of the road, I do not believe red means stop. I don't not believe that I cannot punch you in the face if I disagree with you. Why in God's name is the state forcing me to do these things I do not believe in?

    Dems? There's a reason it was given to *ucker. And that's not to protect Dem ???? Every "dem" I know wants all the footage available to the public. Why does it have to be filtered thru *ucker?

    Nong pea mai. I know one. Nickname because born on new years. Not so odd.

    No. Y'all are not the only colonial power trying to hang on to a distant past. I dislike all colonial remnants irrespective of country.
  17. mikebike
    Canada. You got anything?
  18. mikebike
    Totally do not understand this reply. If you are referring to China projecting soft power, please let me know the offshore properties they have kept for hundreds of years.

    Indigenous? But, does nationality really matter? It is a remnant of a colonial past which should be enough to let it go ya silly empirist.
  20. mikebike
    Because the empire-building era is well and past and hanging on to the remnants of far-flung colonial possessions for profit now seems slimy and robs indigenous and local residents of a means of wealth creation.

    Some posters on this thread could benefit in some philosophy 101...
  22. mikebike
    Your are gonna have to give us your definition of "laws" before we can even discuss this.
  23. mikebike
    I own several condos in several countries. Methinks it is you that does not get the peculiarities of condo ownership.
  24. mikebike
    Yes. The world changes. Deal with it or be a dinosaur, like the ladies say, "up to you" ????

    Do you naively think this is something new or are you aware that the powerful have controlled media since it's inception?
