I've always liked the way it's done in Starship Troopers (the excellent book, not that piece-of-shit movie). Anyone who pays taxes is allowed to live here and take advantage of the benefits that taxpayers are allowed to have, regardless of where they came from. If you want to get in, you come in on...

That's easy enough to fix. Make it so that any company that is in trouble, the stockholders become responsible. If company X goes bankrupt, then stockholders have to pay the balance per share. If company X violates laws that lead to a jail sentence being required, then that time is split up amoung ...

The real key to the unemployment problem is rampant capitalism. Take away all the shitty rules and laws that are needlesly stifling our industries, and unemployment would not be a problem. Finding enough workers and everyone having huge salaries would be the problem. Inflation is ugly, but can be c...

Well, the federal government certainly has acted within the realm of the constitution I strongly disagree with this statement. The thing is, only the federal government is in charge of telling the federal government if it's following the rules or not. That's no good, IMO. If the states were doing m...

Not just vampires, but Lesbian Vampires! Others have given a detailed review better than I can, so I'll keep it general: bad sound quality, bad video quality, bad editing, bad choreography, bad directing, bad acting, bad story, bad script. I liked it! Here's the real breakdown: 30% trying to be a b...

I quite like that one, GORDON. Hey, I haven't heard the Ewok theory. What's your Ewok theory? Well, since you asked... An Exercise in Xenophysiology Resolved: The sexual organs of Ewoks are on the upper rear portion of their heads. Evidence: Minimal and spurious, but somehow disturbingly compelling...

I've got the long-term memory of a fruit fly, so rereading and rewatching things is almost like the first time for me each time. I don't have a library of DVDs, though, cause I couldn't pick which one's to buy. That's the main reason I subscribed to Netflix, that's my DVD library. Someone else keep...
