  1. What is Democracy? A boy is asked at school as his homework.


    So the little boy goes to his dad and asks, "What is democracy?"

    Dad says, "Well son, let me try to explain it this way: I'm the breadwinner of the family, so let's call me capitalist. Your Mom spends the money, so we'll call her the Government. Nanny is working at home for money, she's the worker class. We're here to spend that money to take care of you, the people. And your baby brother in bed, the future."

    So the little boy goes off to bed and later hears his baby brother crying, he gets up to check on him and finds that he severely soiled his diaper. So the boy goes to his parents' room and finds his mother sound asleep. Not wanting to wake her, he goes to the nanny's room. Finding the door locked, he peeps in the keyhole and sees his father in bed with the nanny. He gives up and goes back to bed.

    The next morning, the little boy goes to school. When teacher askes if anyone got the answer to the homework he raises hand,

     

    "Democracy is, while Capitalists are screwing the Working Class, the Government is sound asleep, the People are being ignored and the Future is in deep trouble."

  2. Why do people have to keep hijacking threads with arguments on a non related subject.  It just hides the good information and leads to new topics having to be started. 

    Can those arguing about AGI/TI etc go and start another thread and leave this to making a will-NOT about tax returns.

    To go back to my original post as to whether the BBC streaming sites were working. I'm pretty sure it's my computer problem. Why? In a flash of inspiration I sorted out my old laptop and and could get easyview even though it's buffering. So it means a trip to the computer shop as I can't sort it. Without a VPN I've never had a problem up till now and I suspect I've interfered with things I shouldn't have. Thanks for all the suggestions.

    My screenshot at Post 7 above was taken yesterday at 1800(ish) local Thai time without VPN!

    Any idea why I can't get it and a tip as to how I can?

    Maybe try clearing cache/browsing history.  Could also try deleting the Cookies for those sites and re-accepting if required.
