Any emails that pertained to state business are fair game. If personal emails were sent on "official systems" so are they. Only purely personal from personal computers are exempt from the public eye. Same goes for any politician. IF a politician is stupid enough to post on public forums, like...

Government intervention is just as bad. Things like government backed sub-prime mortgages, government buyouts and stimulus packages do as much or more harm than the Fed. Government needs to be trimmed down and brought under control and the Fed needs to dry up and blow away. Along with the...

First off, there is no such race as "Hispanic". There are people who speak Spanish from many different countries, races and religions. It is NOT racial. What those who are here legally need to do is start standing up and help stop the illegal movement across our borders. Just as the...

That is why they do it. Makes it far easier to pass bad laws that way. Call things "mean" does the same thing.

We are 30,000 curb weight but single screw. We do have a locking diff. That was the only time we have had a problem. It was hard on the hands for sure.

I am lost but that is nothing new. Maybe we need to get a really big island somewhere, call it Pharmaland, have all the research done there, no national taxes. No army, no roads, no welfare to support. Just pure research without any government interference. Governments could set quality...

I know what was meant. I don't like the term "racial" to start with. I don't believe it is all about race, but, we do have a problem to be sure. I think the term "racial" in politics is just to make opposing ideas bad from the get go and no other reason.

We have had to lay our chains down in front of our tires in a truck stop lot, once. It was at the Pilot in Brooks, KY. Ice everywhere and 33. A fine sheet of water on an uneven ice sheet. Automatic chains would have been nice that day. My hands were numb and sore once I finally got moving and...

Yeah, I feel pretty good today, except for the truck stuff. :D

I understand, but there is a problem. There were not 12 million illegals from Poland or Italy. It is those who choose to ignore our laws that are causing the problems for those who do it right. Regardless of the country they come from, race or religion. There is not an easy answer. First the...

Off shore? You lost me. If it is off shore, how is it Canadian? :confused:

It costs a billion or more to bring a drug to market and can take decades. Just wondering out loud, I wish I had the answer. I don't like what we have now but everything else I have seen is really no better. It would seem to be if that system worked as good as some think that there would be...

Things will never recover as long as the Federal Reserve is allowed to exist and is protected by politicians. They line each others pockets for a living, at our expense.

I wonder how that 4% thing works out for them? I wonder if that is enough to cover costs, allow for profit and have enough for further research? Do Canadian pharma companies put out a lot of new drugs?

Yep, likely right.

As did all of my grandparents and some of my greatgrandparents. My mother and father were the first to be born U.S. citizens. Those who came here became Citizens, LEGALLY, as quickly as possible. They were Americans, free!!

Does early removal of patents allow for enough time to recover costs? What kind of pharma industry does Canada have of their own? I am not so much concerned with the quality in Canada, I am sure it is on par with down here. It is the production/research side I am more concerned with. The...

That is only ONE example. Both sides of the "dirt" are posted in here all the time. What amazes me is that people support scum from EITHER party. No standards any more. We should be ashamed.

The bureaucrat was "invented" so to speak by the career politician to do their bidding. The complacent people allow it to go on. That is how the Soviets controlled their population. A all powerful bureaucracy and terror. That is what is going to happen here.

It is a very thin line between "isolationism" and "interference" to be sure. Trade is the key to be sure but we need to insure a more level playing field. The rest of the world has some sort of protectionism. I don't condone that, I believe it inhibits innovation. I believe our main...
