but, we have to learn (just as every other country) where our blessings actually came from and look to God again. otherwise, they will simply vanish as they already are day to day. i take comfort that 'if the worst happens' it will all lead to the best. Christ's return. maybe He's showing us that we are all at fault and we all need a better way.
Ummm.....pianistimo, they're puppets....As for you Rim....BOO HISS BOO! You have a government that lies, and a President that is overly fond of cheese burgers!Rebute that Henrah
over half your population is overweight and a great deal are morbidly obese, yet across an ocean, millions are starving to death everyday.
would i rather make war or love with mizz xtina, HARD choice
Why do you hate fat people? Being thin doesn't make you better than anyone elso, so shut it.
I think those puppets look creepy and I don't like the idea of a whole movie with cheap puppets as the characters. I think I remember seeing previews from that movie. I don't plan on wasting time on it.Team America sounds kind of dorky.The idea of hyping up America policing the world is interesting. I think the US is stabilizing a lot of the world. Generally doing good. I don't think the US always has business everywhere, but I think it can easily get dragged into things.South Park creators... might be ok.Put the F back in freedom? Huh? Where was the F before? Was it Reedom? Where did the F go? That keeps the S alive in Stupid.

Shall I?You do realize that the film spoofs liberals, not conservatives. Seeing as how Hollywood actors join up with Kim Jong Il...(this should be more than apparent to anyone who's seen South Park)

yeah but being fat shortens your life in many ways.
I'm ignoring you steve.
I don't hate fat people, I hate consummerism which goes hand in hand with obesity, and I correct my percentage, I read in TIME that it's actually 2/3 are overwieght of obese.The problem with obesity is thatA) it kills them andB)They don't need to eat that much andC)what about the rest of the world, something stupid like 90% of our ressources are being used bu north America (I'm lumped in there too) andwe certainly don't contain the bulk of it although Japan, China and Inida are likely close behind.I'm ignoring you steve.
Sorry, our goverment doesnt lie.

Ah mean you can only use "the strongest military in the world" so many times before people become de-sensitized. And to call him both retarded and silly- shame on you. Making fun of the mentally handicapped. But why's a retard your president?Cause in a America, we dont fu---ing descriminated And intelligence is relative anyway. To many people Einstein was a genius. To meh, he's just a regular old guy Quote from: musik_man on May 17, 2006, 03:17:42 PM90% wow Common sense should've told you that was false. The USA's GDP is ~10 trillion.

Resources are stolen.
What he found was that not only is edible food discarded that could feed people who need it, but the rate of loss, even partially corrected, could save US consumers and manufacturers tens of billions of dollars each year. Jones says these losses also can be framed in terms of environmental degradation and national security. Jones' research evolved from and builds on earlier work done at the University of Arizona. Archaeologists there began measuring garbage in the 1970s to see what was being thrown away and discovered that people were not fully aware of what they were using and discarding. Those earlier studies evolved into more sophisticated research using contemporary archaeology and ethnography to understand not only the path food travels from farms and orchards to landfills, but also the culture and psychology behind the process. The fact that the US is a wasteful nation is not necessarily news, of course. The country has long has been chastised for its wilful consumption of the world's resources, and many aspects of the country's culture encapsulate what environmentalists disparagingly refer to as today's "throw-away society."
We're dicks! We're reckless, arrogant, stupid dicks.And the Film Actors Guild are pussies.Kim Jong Il is an ***.Pussies don't like dicks because pussies get fucked by dicks. But dicks also *** assholes. Assholes that just want to *** on everything. Pussies may think they can deal with assholes their way. But the only thing that can *** a *** is a dick, with some balls. The problem with dicks is they *** too much or *** when it isn't appropriate. And it takes a pussy to show them that. But sometimes pussies can be so full of *** that they become assholes themselves. Because pussies are a inch and half away from assholes. I don't know much about this crazy crazy world, but I do know this. If you don't let us *** this *** we're going to have our dicks and pussies all covered in ***.
lol, I was trying to give you more things to rebute He's not as dumb or retarded as the media makes him out to be, or else he wouldn't have ever made it as far as an election campaign.Unless it's the American dream that allows a burger loving stupid texan to become the most made-fun-of President ever Again, just to rebute please.If anything, I applaud George Double-yah for keeping his tether, and not going nukie-wukie on anyone that rips the piss out of him. In fact, I'd shake his hand for openly and publicly allowing a looky-likey to say a proper presidential speech whilst G.W.B takes the piss out of himself. But I'd probably get shot before I even get on the grass...HenrahP.S. I hope he gets another term, we need this kind of humour. I just hope that if he does, someone takes over his decisions and he just becomes a target of humiliation... though that might lead to depression, and I don't want to see a huge fat George Double-yah comfort eating on cheese burgers for the rest of his life.
Anyone who thinks this movie is intelligent in any way, shape or form probably has an IQ of about 60, or is no older than 12.

That movie was the dumbest movie I've ever seen in a theater. I actually got my money back. It's for 14 year old boys who will probably eventually drop out of high school. They think a 20 second vomit scene, cursing ever 4 seconds, a 2 minute puppet sex scene and mocking the most stupidly obvious/basic political controversies at the most stupidly obvious/basic levels is "witty" and "satirical".Anyone who thinks this movie is intelligent in any way, shape or form probably has an IQ of about 60, or is no older than 12.
Has he eaten a lot of cheeseburgers?
I'm 17, and supposedly have an IQ of 140 - though I think it's actually 130 odd - and I love that movie! I think it is highly intelligent, though probably creating it's own cliche at the same time by conforming to the stupidity of American movies to make it easier on American viewers. That d*ck, pussies and a**holes speech is class, and will go down in history! It has such a deep connotation, and yet is also funny because it is telling the truth about our own genitals. A**holes really do cover everything in sh*t Anyway, my point is: Matt and Trey are both very smart, and know the true act behind government, and like to express it in many hilarious ways. They thought of an ingenious way of expressing their feelings towards many actors and actresses of today, inventing the idea of a Film Actors Guild. Now that's smart!And Soliloquy, you have a very normal sense of humour (or lack of maybe) if you don't find the continuous vomiting funny. It's the over exaggeration that makes me laugh so hard, and that's what's so great about having a British sense of humour
It's by Tim Hartford an economist.
Dear Tim,Imagine that a poor farmer can make £1 a day and his child £5 a day from begging.The farmer uses this extra cash to educate the child who goes to university and creates mega-corp with a turnover of $4.2Billion, and to buy a big piece of land and a tractor so he then makes £50 a day employing £1 farmers and £3M a year selling the yield to his son's business. The people who will be £1 a day farmers are those who read your letter in the economist.p.s did you get £1 a day for writing it? Buy a pig with it and start farming otherwise everyone will be doing it.
Why would corporations pay more money to independent farmers than they pay to their contracted farmers?Do corporations even buy from independent farmers?
Sure, so your argument makes not sense. Who 'controls' the market price?
Yes, and the market is dominated by corporations. So the corporations influence the prices.I mean, those people deserve to get more money for their products. But they do not get any more because of the way the market works.
And let's not forget the state support for western farmers. Those influence the market as well.A friend of me works for Cargill and she wants to quit her job because Cargill is so bad it makes her feel guilty. And this when she isn't even in the section of the company that has anything to do with the stealing of resources.
I played Ultima Online, a game which has many people to focus entirely on craft and trade, and the markets are all flawed and screwed up. I though you were an economist, though I do not know why. Surely all of them are flawed. I do not know the details of FFXI but I can't imagine how this program can be both a game and a realistic market model.I never said corporations decide on a price. I only said that the market works in such a way it is possible to limit the amount of money payed to third world farmers. Why don't they get payed more?

Why don't they get payed more?I expected that you would find the indefensible. But as long as they exist we cannot talk about capitalism and markets won't work properly in the capitalist way. It is like defending communism while ignoring the atrocities it seemed to inflict because these are not a part of the strict communist ideology. Communism proposes a strong state. The stronger a state the more the violence. Same with capitalism. If you defend capitalism you also need to consider the unwanted side effects.
In the game I played gold is the currency. Gold is added by killing monsters. Monsters spawn out of nothing every once in a while. This means that over time the economy will inflate itself out of existance. And this is what happened. Gold now is worth 40 times less when compared with the game economy a year after the game started. At least this is what people that still play have told me.
