For me its, vladimir putin for now. who is your powerful politicians?

Vladimir Putin is a powerful politician since he had lift up Russia from being drowned in debt and placed it up on the pedestal of the economy. Without Putin Russia would probably be like Greece right now. But second to him I consider Rodrigo Duterte as a powerful politician since he is also the ASEAN president. Duterte had make a big impact on the world and is on the hotspot by the UN.
Lol. Sorry but you have the psychology of a weak man who needs a leader. Both leaders whom you mentioned are dictators. Putin has not only plundered Russia but also undermined its economy. Russians began to live worse it's a fact, and the fact that you do not acknowledge and speak the opposite view says that you are a victim of propaganda.

Still feeling butt hurt because the Russians kicked your asses in Donbass? It doesn't matter whether these two rulers are dictators or not. Putin stopped the looting of Russian national resources by the oligarchs. Duterte ended the drug menace in the Philippines. Both have done more to the people than any other elected leader.

the president sure is doing some nice cleaning in his country. He may be misunderstood at time (mostly by media) because of his vulgar way of speaking but his vision for his country is good Smiley

No one cares about the language as long as he does the job properly. His popularity ratings are sky high, and only a few corrupt politicians and the drug kingpins are complaining against him. And he should ignore the media. Let them bark.

If existing another weapon from guns, we must have a guns in homes. In this times with terrorism and evil... Im sad that in Poland we dont have a right to have a simple gun for selfdefense, im sad when Im looking in fb for my friends in UK or D in crowd of engry people who have only claims and ofen brute power Sad
In England people are allowed to have weapons. They lost this right and now probably really regret it. I think this is a good example of the fact that the public should not trust government and to always defend their rights.
Regret it?!

Maybe they don't regret having a murder rate several times lower than the US...

If the United Kingdom has the same demographics as that of the United States, then the murder rate in the UK will be several times higher than that in the US. Already crime rates in the immigrant infested cities such as London and Birmingham are starting to approach the rates in the US.
19384  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Where would society be without the internet? on: July 03, 2017, 03:14:41 AM
I would say the crime rate/ rape rate and totally rates of everything would've been 10 times of the current rates, population of earth would be 12 billions people, pretty much people would have so much of spare time and that's not good. and you are forgetting something here, things like internet and bitcoin are inevitable to exist. if you want to know how would it be without anything just look at history and the times before them ever existed.
Society without internet? look at the years before internet, how was the situation before it?

Whatever the religious nuts say, the accessibility to porn has gone a long way in curbing the rates of rape and other forms of sexual abuse. And it is just one of the millions of advantages in having internet. Without the internet, we will be going back to the stone age.

Tricks cops use to make you think they are good.

WATCH: Hero Cop Stops a Knife Attack With Love & A Hug -- NOT Violence

Totally ridiculous. So the media is saying that if someone charges at a police officer with a knife or a sword, then rather than shooting the attacker, the cop must stay there and hug him. If I am a cop, I am not going to do this. Best of luck to anyone who would attempt this.

You need to start saving energy
And use it at a minimum

Energy should not be wasted, but it should be used when there is a need. But still, I am against the expansion of thermal power plants. They create a lot of pollution, and every year a lot of people die as a result of this pollution. IMO, thermal power plants must be replaced with either hydro-electric plants, or nuclear power plants.
19387  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Save the planet or not on: July 03, 2017, 01:57:56 AM
saving planet is very important and if we do not save it, we will have no place to live. People are talking about moving to other planets but with the technology we have today, I doubt that we can move out this planet in the next 100 years

I would say we are 1,000 years away from settling in some other planet (or in the outer space). It is not easy. There are no planets with all the peculiarities of our earth. If you go to Mars, then you have to deal with a lot of issues, such as high radiation, low gravity.etc. Other exoplanets are many hundreds of light years away. Travelling to them is not practical.
19388  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Russia can lose the Mundial 2018 on: July 03, 2017, 01:54:41 AM
The Americans and the Brits are upset because they lost the hosting rights to Russia and Qatar. The bidding for World Cup hosting was always a corrupt process, and it makes no sense to conduct the football world cup in the United States, where not too many people watch the sport.
Now probably again from Russia and Qatar will host the world Cup 2018. Blockade of Qatar and the corruption scandal could trigger the transfer of competitions in a more dignified country. I hope that it will.

Yeah.. keep dreaming. The United Kingdom lost the hosting vote to Russia for the 2018 world cup, and the United States lost the bidding to Qatar for the 2022 world cup. Now these two sore losers are teaming up to overturn the voting results.

And they have nothing to hate. He who fears, he hates, and so in order to Muslims are higher in spirit.

People are afraid of the Muslims and that is one of the reasons why they hate them. But you need to ask the question from where this hate originates. Countries where there is no Muslim population (such as Belarus and Moldova) has seen no terrorist attacks till now.
19390  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Impact of drinking alcohol. on: July 03, 2017, 01:48:01 AM
It seems that the state of more mini-developing countries are beginning to more actively contribute to alcoholic intoxication of their citizens, and this seems to me to be done so that people do not observe or react to what is happening around them. If a person is drunk then Freedom of speech is not needed.

This is a ridiculous logic. I have been to a lot many of the third world countries, and people who are addicted to alcohol are only around 2% to 3% at the max. The governments get a lot of revenues from the sale of alcohol, and that is the reason why they encourage its sale. They are not interested in keeping the citizens in a zombie state by making them alcoholics.
19391  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Your opinion on recreational drug use on: July 03, 2017, 01:46:21 AM
Addiction treatment is not a disease. Drug addiction is not treated with medicines! Moreover, most drugs now contain narcotic substances. That is why in recent years the number of pharmacy drug addicts has increased - codeine, tramadol, "screw", "crocodile" and many other narcotic substances can be obtained simply by making a purchase in a pharmacy

Yeah.. the pharma cartels are making a lot of profit in the sale of drugs which contains opioids. Actually that is one of the reasons why these companies are against the legalization of marijuana. If the government legalize marijuana, then no one will purchase these harmful and super-expensive opioids. And BTW, "Krokodil" is not a legal drug which can be obtained from the pharmacies. It is illegal everywhere.
19392  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Vaccinated vs. Unvaccinated: Guess who is Sicker? on: July 03, 2017, 01:40:28 AM
It is very difficult to debate with people who believe that the vaccination effect can be compared with the placebo effect.Doctors stopped Mongo epidemics through vaccination. It is strange that the descendants of the survivors now want to trigger a new epidemic.

Look at what is happening in countries such as Afghanistan and Pakistan. In some of the villages there, the clergy has banned vaccination saying that it is unislamic. This has resulted in the recurrence of epidemics such as polio and diphtheria.

Therefore , can we conclude that vaccines ( even with mercury) is better than having none?

Let me explain. Without the vaccines, you will have polio, smallpox, measles, anthrax, diphtheria.etc. With vaccines, there will be a 0.00001% higher chance of autism. Which one you'll chose? If you ask me, then I'll chose the latter option.

Rather than a brave martyr, the suicide was just a fool, duped by clever words of liars.

Islam has succeeded in brainwashing its followers to an extent that they are ready to give up their lives for the extermination of the infidels. Islam doesn't care about its followers. Even if a few die in the wars, it doesn't matter. The most important thing is the expansion of the religion.
19394  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Why do people like Trump? on: July 03, 2017, 01:36:36 AM
Yes OR No And STATE Why
Not all people like trump there are still people hate trumps whether in US, but also in other  counties too.
Anywhere in the  world haters was always there but still there is a people supported trump's system.
It seems to me that no one except the Russian no longer support Trump. I hope we learn the truth about Trump ties with the Russians. There is no smoke without fire. All the evidence suggests that Trump the best the agent of the Kremlin in history.

ROFLMAO.... Trump's approval rating is currently at around 45%. This approval rating came from the United States, and not from Russia. That said, I can see why you Ukrainians are so upset about it.
19395  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How much risk in bitcoin investement ? on: July 02, 2017, 04:47:25 AM
An investment will certainly have a risk, the greater the investment we plant it will be the greater the risk that we will get, and usually every big risk will result in a big advantage too

No investment is 100% risk-free. Even your bank savings accounts can't be considered as 100% safe, as seen from the Cyprus haircut. But what you have told is true. The bigger the risk, the bigger is the chance of getting high returns.
19396  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: [BREAKING NEWS]: Japan Ends 8% Consumption Tax On Bitcoin Today on: July 02, 2017, 04:43:35 AM
From various bitcoin exchange, 100k shops could accept bitcoin this year thanks to 3rd party bitcoin payment service and now japan ends 8% consumption tax. Japan soon will be the most friendly country towards bitcoin in Asia and could have more adoption rate than America or Europe.

Positive news from Japan has taken the exchange rates from $1,000 per coin to $2,500 per coin, and this happened despite the setback on Bitcoin ETF from the United States SEC. Imagine what can happen, if the other nations also start supporting Bitcoin.
19397  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Russia is the most aggressive country on: July 02, 2017, 04:39:50 AM
People like to hate on Russia. It's fashionable these days.

America is the most aggressive country in the world. It started about 250 years ago when people came to this continent and slaughtered the natives who were here. Theft by force. We're not talking about annexing 10% of a country that was already 5% of the size of our current country. We are talking about 3.5 million square miles being taken by force over the course of many years by people who abandoned their own country because they didn't want to pay taxes.

And since then, a decade hasn't gone by when we were not fighting somebody.

The current campaign of Russophobia is a tactic to divert attention from the major issues such as ISIS and growing federal debt. More than two dozen nations (including Japan, Iraq, Afghanistan, Germany, and Saudi Arabia) are currently under American military occupation. And they are still thick enough to accuse the Russians of aggression.
19398  Other / Politics & Society / Re: A beautiful disaster for the Philippines on: July 02, 2017, 04:36:15 AM
This is the biggest chance for the Philippines to improve. I really thought before that there is no hope for this country but now, everything has changed. trust me, I am from Mindanao, I know him. He is the last hope of the Philippines, Let us stand with him in all his decisions.

Reminds me of Putin. He became the president of Russia, when that country was in deep turmoil. During the last 18 years, Putin has almost singlehandedly restored the super-power status of Russia. Here, Duterte is also singlehandedly eradicating crime and drug addiction in the Philippines, despite the overwhelming odds against him.
19399  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Burger King to Accept ... on: July 02, 2017, 04:31:08 AM
Are they going to mandate all their branches around the world to start accepting bitcoin or they would stay in russia for now? Tho i am excited for this because i am a burger king fan i am kinda afraid to pay more in fees than the burger that i've paid

Just checked with a Russian friend yesterday, and he told me that the Burger King employees in Vernadskogo Avenue have no idea about Bitcoins or the news that BK is going to accept BTC. As usual, it looks like the Coin Telegraph is churning out fake news in order to increase the readership.
19400  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Trump announced a full-scale sale of energy resources of the United States. on: July 02, 2017, 04:27:22 AM
Trump did the right thing, I guess. By selling the coal resources, he is bringing more revenue to the federal treasury and in the end it will benefit states such as West Virginia by improving the employment rate. And what is wrong in mining coal and exporting it, if countries like China and North Korea can do the same in their jurisdictions?
