They do not have to adopt the Brithish or German culture because they won't stay here fro all their life.
Well, I wish you good luck in attempts to get them leave, no sarcasm here. For me it seems more likely that native population consider migration to eastern europe as the only option to save their lives from a barbaric cult of salafi.

Eastern European countries such as Bulgaria, Poland and Romania are also part of the European Union, and very soon they will be forced to accept millions of Muslim immigrants. Outside the European Union, the number of Muslims are increasing in countries such as Russia, Serbia and Macedonia. There is only one white country which is free from Muslim immigrants - Belarus.

I don't think this scenario will happen.
It's obvious than more than half countries in EU don't want Muslim refugees.
Germany can't win in this situation and will have to accept reality.
I think that maybe some small number of Muslim refugees will be allowed in EU and this will be all.
Also, this people don't want to go to e. Europe.
Their desire is to go to Germany, UK or Sweden.
Please note that Russia, Serbia, Bosnia, Macedonia etc., have a lot refugees because of their history, not because of current crisis with immigrants.

The article below does a good visual comparison of the initial stages of the destruction of Ukraine an Brazil:

Destabilizing Brazil: Impeachment of Dilma Rousseff – Scary Parallels with Ukraine
https://futuristrendcast.wordpress.com/2016/04/19/destabilizing-brazil-impeachment-of-dilma-rousseff-scary-parallels-with-ukraine/



I read little bit about this issue a few months ago and I really feel that Dilma Rousseff made great mistake and should go voluntary, without waiting for official Impeachment procedure.
Because of her corruption Brazil lost chance to become top political and economy power in the world.
Still, I don't think you can compare Brazil and Ukraine.
Ukraine is completely different case because of their historical and political ties with Russia and big Russian minorities in Ukraine.

9403  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Will Bitcoin survive world war III? on: April 22, 2016, 03:13:40 PM
I have doubt for WW3 in 10 years. If technology and internet survives after devastation of nuclear war maybe BTC can survive...
If ww3 breaks out then biggest question is if humen will survive ? Bitcoin no doubt has stable future but on other side i am hopeful there will never be any ww3 since all people of the world are very good and wise and reject such ideas.




I'm sure that after each war, even World war, someone will survive (in some deep caves Smiley ) but I'm not sure that Internet will survive complete disaster of the planet earth, and that survivors will care about it or Bitcoin.
I feel that you are very idealistic if you believe that we will not have another World war because people are very good.
please weak up!
We had WW I and WW II and also WW III (Cold war) but reason why WW III didn't become ''hot'' war is very simple: ''No guarantee for victory''.
WW IV is also possible with terrorist like ISIS and if this happen, please believe me, nobody will care any more about any bitcoin.
9404  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Which country does NOT use Bitcoin? on: April 22, 2016, 03:07:24 PM
North Korea has only 600 allowed people which uses internet there, and all working for intelligence for the government. Normal users there don't have access to internet, thats why normal people don't use bitcoin in North Korea, it looks to me like a land forgotten by time.
Really those statistics make me wonder how the world goes there ? In my country 90% of users are using internet already. Anyways why are they not allowed, can someone please promote BTC there ?

If you will know about reality in N. Korea, how brutal this regime is, you will not ask this question.
They are completely isolated from outside world, no communication, relationship, nothing...

Even this 600 people who are allowed to use Internet for the moment, they use it in order to protect their country and find info which they can use.
no way they can freely communicate with outside world or even trade with Bitcoin.
For such things they could be killed or send to prison, whole family.
Good news is that probably N. Korea is only such country in the world and I'm sure in every other country in the world, there are some people who can use Bitcoin without problem Smiley


9405  Other / Politics & Society / Re: MUSLIMS ARE NOT TERRORISTS AND TERRORISTS ARE NOT MUSLIMS on: April 20, 2016, 03:25:59 PM
I agree with this statement.
Nobody is bad because of his religion, race, nationality, sex etc.
We are good or bad persons based on our character and personality, not because I'm Christian and you are Muslim.
Unfortunately, after each terrorist attack people forget it and start to accuse all Muslims or even Islam for the evil deeds of a few people.
It's not right attitude and thinking.
We should do better and show tolerance and acceptance to loyal Muslims in our local communities.
If we don't do this, more Muslims will feel isolated and unwanted in their European countries and this may help further radicalization of young Muslims in Europe.

Stephen hawkings, a russian billionaire, and Mark Zukkenburg have teamed up to launch an extraterrestrial project. Thoughts and info?

It's really funny that some people have so much wealth and money and don't know how to spend this funds better than on something useless for all humankind.
They may wait 100 or 1000 years to receive answer from aliens on some very fare planet but most people need help and support right now.
I don't know it's this funny or stupid news, or both.
But, I guess, it's better even to spend money in this way than for wars or weapons.



Yep, only if all the other people would spend their money on similar projects too. Unfortunately there are people who spend on weapons more than on food, North Korea for example, and if you don't want to be conquered by them you should invest in weapons too.

Yes, it's sad reality that we have to spend so much money on weapons when so many people in Africa don't have enough food to eat and starving.
But, if we can't avoid it because of countries like N. Korea and Isis terrorist organization, at least we don't need to spend money on such stupid and very expensive things like searching alien life.
9407  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: It looks like the community is supporting Bitcoin on: April 20, 2016, 03:02:15 PM
Anything on Yahoo news is not taken seriously by the tech enthusiast but it does get the spotlight on bitcoin for the people who have it set to their homepage.
It is publicity so you know it is agreed that it is here to stay and enough of the "is it dead yet?" comments when it comes to it's longevity.  Wink

It's true, they also have their own opinions and agenda.
But, still, yahoo website is very popular and any news about bitcoin is good news for us because people will read it and maybe become curious.
Finally, we, bitcoin users, creating future of bitcoin, not media or somebody else.

kako se dobije viši rang? broj postova ili?
Rang ti se povecava kao resultat postova na dan sto ti dodje na aktivitet. Aktivtet se podesava svaka dva tjedna, znaci maksimalno skoci 14 (ako si svaki dan u ta dva tjedna pisao post)...

Ali isto mozes dobiti ban ako postujes off-topic, kao u ovom slucaju...  Cheesy


Zapravo, ne moraš pisati svaki dan, možeš čak napisati 14 postova u istom danu, i idućih 13 dana ništa, i rank će ti opet skočiti za 14 Smiley
Dakle, nisi svaki dan vezan uz ovaj forum, piši kad ti odgovara a bitno je, ako želiš što brže napredovati po forum ranku, da u svakom periodu od 14 dana napišeš minimalno 14 postova.
i naravno, nemoj spamat Smiley

You don't have to use Google you know.

You can use Mozilla Firefox for a browser instead of Chrome.

You can use yahoo mail or microsoft mail instead of Gmail.

You can use DuckDuckGo as a search engine instead of the Google search engine. For those who don't know, DuckDuckGo doesn't track you. Here's the link:

https://duckduckgo.com/

I don't think that all this steps helps much.
It seems everybody spying on people this days Smiley
USA Government, Russia, CIA, FBI, Google etc.
Do you really think that Microsoft don't spy us?
Or that government agencies can't spy us if we use Firefox or Opera?
It's useless, we can't protect our privacy anymore.
''big brother'' is everywhere. Literally.
9411  Other / Off-topic / Re: Earning a living with bitcoin? on: April 18, 2016, 03:56:26 PM
Of course you can earn a living with Bitcoin but you will have to invest allot of money into it to make enough money back so you can pay your bills. So for the average it is not possible because we cannot invest that much money in to it. 

It's true.
You need money to make money Smiley
Many people trying different HYIP and Scams on Internet, investing 10, 20, 50 $ but even if they are lucky to earn, čet's say 1-2 % per day, how much this can help them financially?
Almost nothing.
It's the same with bitcoin.
most people trying to earn bitcoin through faucets or signature campaigns but in this way nobody can become reach.
Even buying Bitcoin can't help unless someone can invest a few thousands dollars!
Most of us will be happy if BTC value increase at least 100-200 % in a year or so, because this will help us to make some small profit but again not something what can really change our financial situation.
Again, You need money to make money Smiley
9412  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin can disappear? on: April 18, 2016, 03:47:53 PM
Bitcoin can disappear?
And if bitcoin is a scam, what will happen in world?
People will panic?

I think that you are overreacting Smiley
Bitcoin will never disappear, it can just become less significant if some other virtual currency becomes more popular.
Bitcoin is not scam but can become failure like everything else in human history.
People will panic?
Which people? Do you really think that much people using BTC?
We are not yet mainstream and most people never heard about Bitcoin yet.
9413  Other / Off-topic / Re: Poll: Which religion is the best religion? on: April 17, 2016, 02:32:57 PM
I think this topic is not debatable... because for all we know they are many wars,issues and casualties that were caused by religion. What matters most is how we help in others base on a belief on a kind hearted ways.

You are right.
I posted the same above but it seems people here like to compare things we can't compare.
It's the same like asking ''which God'' is better God?
Or which people are better people?
In my life I meet many good catholic, protestants,orthodox, Muslims and also many very bad  catholic, protestants,orthodox, Muslims etc.
So, why some of them are good people and some are bad people?
Because of their religion, sex, nationality, race, education...?
Or because of their character?
So, if any religion help me or someone else to become better person, with more love and understanding toward others, than this religion will be the best for me.

9414  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Why some countries are lucky and some appears to be less so on: April 17, 2016, 02:05:27 PM
What is your definition of luck and happiness?
If you like nature and life without stress and pressure, you will probably like life in Africa much more than in America or Europe.
If you prefer security, you will rather live in Scandinavia or Switzerland than America or France, uK etc.
If you wants to start some business than America is your choice Smiley
I guess each of us have own definition of happiness and luck.
Of course, I'm talking about politically stable countries, without wars, corruptions, with good educational and social system.
Why some countries can't provide such basic foundations for their citizens?
It's not easy to answer, because each country is unique.
Usually, political corruptions and civil wars are the main reasons why some countries don't provide to their people security and stability needed for good life. 

9415  Economy / Economics / Re: Could the US Dollar Collapse after April 19 2016? Can Bitcoin be the solution? on: April 17, 2016, 01:57:05 PM
The problem is the world is not ready for another world collapsing of fiat currencies. If the dollar goes down the toilet so do all the other currencies pegged to it. This means that we do need to prepare ourselves if this happens within the next 5-10 years or so. We are not ready although we do have alternatives there.

Yes, I agree with you.
American dollar is just to big and to important for world economy that this currency can collapse.
Look what happened with some big American banks during last big financial crisis, or with Greece recently.
They was to big and to important to fail.
Bitcoin as solution? Maybe for average people and only as second, alternative currency but in world market US Dollar will dominate world economy for a very long time.

9416  Other / Off-topic / Re: If i give you 10 BTC what will you do? on: April 17, 2016, 01:49:56 PM
LOL very good question Smiley
Better question will be why you will give 10 BTC to anybody?
Any way, if by some good luck or maybe mistake from your side, I ever receive 10 BTC I will invest part of this money in some business and rest keep in my wallet, and wait for price increase.
When this happen I will sell this funds.
9417  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Money and people on: April 16, 2016, 01:59:18 PM
Let's imagine the world, where government has all the money at the beginning and we need to decide how this money can be shared with people. Do we all need to be equal? Or should our salary depend on the work we do?

First, government can't create something from nothing, even money Smiley
In order that government can have money, first they have to collect it from the taxes.
In order to collect taxes, some people should earn money first.
In order that people can earn some money, jobs are needed.
There a no jobs without government regulations and no government regulations without government Smiley
So, everything is connected.
Government don't have absolute freedom to do whatever they wants with public money.
It's naive way of thinking.
They have to give salary to many workers in the government offices, army, public health industry etc.
They also have to pay for national loans, cover international cost for international organization as World bank, Unite Nations etc.
So it's impossible that government can share all money with people, even small amount of public money is difficult to share, because of so many different agendas and interests in society.
Yes, people should receive salary for their work but if they work in private area, they can't request government to give them salary.
It will be strange to do such thing.
9418  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Why are all women leaders so fucking terrible... on: April 16, 2016, 01:43:50 PM
So, you can continue with your statement and ask why black people are bad leaders, or leaders in Asia etc.
I think that you are wrong.
There are not good or bad man or woman leaders.
There are not good or bad black man leaders etc.
Sex, race, religion or nationality doesn't influence on leadership abilities but moral values and personal character.
Mrs. Thacher was one of the greatest politic leader in United Kingdom, in this century
It's the same for Indira Gandhi in India or Golda Meir in Israel etc.
So, don't judge people based on their sex, race or nationality but based on their character.


9419  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Newbies are not newbies indeed... on: April 16, 2016, 01:35:01 PM
So what are you trying to say here? The people that are marked as 'newbies' are not newbies? If so, then you're wrong. Additionally, there are a lot of users that are 'senior' and/or 'hero' members which I would mark as newbies. Just knowing what Bitcoin is and having a surface understanding of how it works does not make you a 'non-newbie'.

Very well said Smiley
In fact, when I first time heard about Bitcoin, friend suggest me right away to register account here and start to learn about bitcoin on this forum.
So, this forum really helped me a lot to understand bitcoin much better but still I can't say that I know everything.
I'm still learning so, in this case, I'm still newbie or student Smiley
9420  Economy / Speculation / Re: If bitcoin dropped to $1, what you do? on: April 16, 2016, 01:31:18 PM
Well, if such bad scenario ever happen, it will be really meaningless to sell something for 1 $ what I bought before for 300 $ or more Smiley
But, it sure that I will not wait that something like this ever happen to me.
If I see clear trend that Bitcoin loosing value and that some other virtual currency replacing Bitcoin, I will for sure sell part of my BTC and invest in this other virtual currency.
It's old saying: ''Never put all eggs in the same basket''. Smiley
