Educated/erudite citizens know the law is rotten to the core with not one redeeming feature. That's not to say all people working in the law are rotten but a good many are damaged in one way or another. The populous see the law as some sor

'Compulsory schooling is, at least in theory, for the students' own good.' Rubbish. Schooling is for the good of society. Schooling != Education. Nothing in school benefits the student. Everything is about preparing the student for the

The US is going to be in a world of hurt. With Europe not far behind in the pain stakes. As always the countries with the most open markets will recover first. Un-fettered markets are not the end solution but they are far better than the

Because time and time again people with a formal education in computer science have turned out to be useless in the commercial arena. Let's face facts most programming is not rocket science and could easily be automated. The reason it has

The freedom to develop code I want to in the manner I wish to. Enough of the usual crappy corporate tools/procedures/apathy. To be judged on what I produce not how many hours I'm in the office. Rewards equal to my contribution, this is whe

How do you reduce weight? Reduce your intake or increase your metabolism. How do you keep weight off? Understand there is no short cuts. Basically, follow a steady diet that maintains your weight. In short cut out manufactured foods e.g.

Great minds etc. I was also looking at ERP after working in the field for a number of years. I was planning on coming from a very different angle. Hosting a very configurable system that required little or no manual intervention. Aiming

I grew up in the UK and now live in the US. In both countries a college education has gone from being something of value to waste of time due to lowering of standards. Leaving no child behind will probably destroy what little respect anybo

There are more crimes committed than the police can ever keep up with. So they prioritize crimes of varying types. Why have they prioritised ticketing members of the public on the freeways for minor speed offenses? The freeways are the s

by ajmoir 19y ago
If you are happy with the posted speed limits and see the police as only law enforcement then nothing I have to say will make a difference.

Arguable how? To my mind they are nothing but revenue generation. A visible speed trap is far more defensible. Not vague warnings but highly visible specific identification. Even better put these speed traps where they are most likely to
