Actually most often middle income wages go up in relationship to the minimum wage, so it's all a wash. That's why I say the whole minimum wage thing is a farce. Nobody ends up ahead, we all just pay more. Look at the fantastic wages offeredby the big corps. that opereate in New York or Boston. $150,00 looks pretty nice on paper,but the cost of living in those cities is so high, they have to pay that much so their employees can afford to live there. A comparable job in Michigan might only pay 80,000, but the cost of living is less, so in the end it's a wash. Government messing with a market economy only adds undo regulations, red tape, and cost to doing business which in turn gets past on to you the consumer. Want to make a real difference in peoples take home pay? Get rid of the bloody payrole taxes. I could afford to pay much higher wages if I didn't have to match social security, medicare...ect. And I would pay maore to retain my better employees. I'd even like to afford to include some form of health insurance for some of my employees, but as the tax code is currently written, I can't afford to. :(

The articles author mistakenly uses the word "Jew" in the place of "Israeli."

'The task is very complex because both Arabs and Jews are Semitic peoples. But according to the report, the Israelis have succeeded in isolating particular characteristics of certain Arabs, "particularly the Iraqi people."'
Seem like the 'Israelis' who have developed or are developing this weapon don't give two shits about their 'Iraqi Jewish' citizens (Baylim Jews). Such a weapon will not be effective for Israel.... It is not a homogenous society.

You people dont seem to get it.

You can talk smack about the science, even though None of you likely has the training or degrees to back it up, but what can you say about the existance of these programs???

Nothing!!

They exist, the govts of the world are researching and building them, and you guys are debating the science. Asinine. I'll let you fellas get back to whacking yourselves off.

OK, you just pretty much proved how immature you are with this post here, this is typical internet balls, I wonder if you would come across as "macho" if I was in the room with you? Not that it matters, you have ZERO proof that genetic bombs exist, but you just talk smack instead of admit that it's all rumor at this point. Typical, at least I have the balls to admit when I'm wrong, or am going on unverified reports.Too bad you don't. :?

I have, at least, provided documented evidence of my argument. All you have is pure speculation, and wishful thinking.

You have provided ZERO proof that this is a hoax or impossibility.

I would most certainly address you in this way in person, anyone who knows me, knows I have no problem telling it like it is, and when published work is in your face, and you STILL deny the existance of something, you still deny its existance.

maybe now you'll shut up with your "I dont believe anything that I dont like" clap-trap.

We can do this forever. Like I said, there is no proof that any of it works yet. There are people on both sides of this making all kinds of claims. So it's a useless battle we have going, and on that line i'll just say you won whoo hoo! Happy birthday! you just ended a thread started about little racist girls with your angry, opinionated, and 100% certain conviction that we humans are indeed so different that we can kill each other off based on skin color.even though it's all theory as of today... are you happy?

BTW a guy on the net tried telling me that Depache Mode started Industrial music, and offered up internet news stories as proof. If you know anything about industrial music, you know how stupid that is, but the internet is where he got his information.... :roll:

Another reason why real, meaningful, debate is useless online, and another reason to just say,
"Hey computo, I respect that you are trying to bring information to the table, and so am I, and it's just not working, this internet forum thing puts too much weight into the simplest of differences of opinion, and it takes far too long to get to an understanding, so I'm bowing out."

Good night! :)

Well I thought this thing would have died after a week of vacation and no interenet access. :(

at work developing code that will allow our software to predict the future, but we don’t
anticipate having this available until at least the next major release.

Ok, so your rebuttal is three COMPLETELY random internet sites??

And I thought I was the conspiracy guy.

Please, you are going to have to do MUCH MUCH better than those pathetic sites.

Something more along the lines of MS news, like oh, BBC, the UN, or the Village Voice. Sorry guy, three nutjob sites dont exactly hold ANY water to the BBC or other mainstream news.

I am not sure any news source is more credible then the next now days. :(

bro, what does that article have to do with anything?

So, we hold MS journalists to a standard, but not bloggers??

Like I said, I don't think we are arguing the same thing, so it's pointless. I don't disagree that these programs exist, I just think it's a waste of time and resources. The science of it is bullshit IMO.
Also, what exactly led you to think I HAVE to come up with three random sites? Why are you inclined to think that the loudest voice is the voice of reason? What is it exactly about large corporate media institutions that makes you think their reporting is somehow closer to the truth than other sources?
This is all about rational thinking to me, you can worry about ethnic bombs if you want to, but the truth of the matter is it's pretty much impossible to come up with a bomb or disease that affects only white people, that you can spread out into a population and leave only the asians etc... It's just not possible. You personally might believe that to be possible, and obviously a lot of politicians are throwing money at research to come up with something, but it doesn't mean they will be successful. That large corporate media outlets are printing these stories, and finding people to pump up the fear isn't surprising either. What this means is that some scientists will come up with some research that looks promising, and get nice fat paychecks.
Anyway, I'm going to enjoy Friday, and I harbor no harsh feeling about any of this, it's just internet blather.
