I highly doubt that liberals will ever die out. I'm all for it to distinguish where liberalism, and where permissiveness. We have reached the point that when North Korea threatens the us, many Americans are afraid to fight. We constantly hear calls to solve peacefully the problem.

The construction of the wall is not an option. No wall will not stop people fleeing for a better life. It seems to me that on this money it is better to build the plant instead of the wall and let the Mexicans work there and receive a decent wage and benefit America.

Everything that could cause mass destruction with people, media, and all those kinds of stuff could be a threat, not just a person, but to people that lives innocently or maybe who are also guilty would feel that. The threat is not something to be taken lightly and I think Russia has the potential to be a threat.

The difference is that Russia has the potential to be a threat and the United States has proven itself to be a threat. The US is the only country which has used nukes against the civilian population. Also, they have invaded 70+ nations ever since the end of WW2.
And how many countries were invaded by Russians? All 70+ where the Americans fought on the other side fought the Russians. You are no better. Besides, if you watch it everywhere where USA wins people's lives become better, and where the defeated Russian people lived worse.

Russia has sent its army to a few nations, such as Afghanistan and North Korea. But it has never tried to invade another nation using its army. Also, it has never tried to topple democratically elected governments.
You contradict yourself. Unless Russia did not enter the occupation troops in Afghanistan? Besides, you forgot the occupation of Moldova,Georgia and Ukraine. Kaliningrad oblast is also an occupied territory.

In America this is not possible. You know why? Because Americans have a right to protect themselves using weapons. Any potential rapist knows that at any moment can get shot. In Europe, more stringent gun laws. Maybe the reason for this?
1065  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Renewable Energy on: May 07, 2017, 12:32:15 AM
I'm a huge fan of renewables. Basically the technology is hear to go 100% green. What's really missing are big government incentives to speed up the process. That's something that really makes me sad.

Agree. Giving bonuses to using them would somehow make up for the expense of installing them. And with more people installing them, more would enter into the business to fulfill the demand. And more people in the industry means more innovation to see who can make the best for the cheapest price.
Life without fossil fuel possible. Recently, it once again proved the Institute of electricity of Costa Rica (ICE), releasing a report, which stated that the country's electricity grid lasted 150 days on renewable energy. Half of these days occurred in the period from 16 June to 2 September. At this time, electricity was extracted with a variety of "green" energy sources.
According to the National center of energy control (CENCE), 80% of the electricity generated by hydropower, of 12.6% was generated by geothermal stations, and 7.6% have windmills and solar energy is brought only 0.01%.
And this is the second experiment in Costa Rica renewable energy. In 2015, the year the country endured them as much as 299 days. China, which is still jokingly referred to as "the world's factory", up to recent times has been the leader in the amount of emitted carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. But earlier the situation was the following: the growth of the economy and the percentage of carbon dioxide emissions were at the same level. Now China's economy is growing, but the volume of harmful emissions is not increased. The fact is that the country actively reduce the consumption of coal and invest in renewable energy. Last year, as reported by Bloomberg, the financial investment in this sector from China was 115 billion dollars, which exceeded the volume of investments in "green" energy in the U.S. and Europe combined.
Denmark, according to the official plan of the government, by 2050, should completely abandon the use of energy fuels. Now the country has about 40% of the energy obtained via wind. Denmark has a very long coast line, that allows the construction of many wind farms.

uniform shirt RSSIA (Russian Summer School of Institutional Analytics, the Russian summer school on institutional analysis).

Show me if such "Russian Summer School of Institutional Analytics" exist.

https://boscosport.ru/upload/iblock/a80/a8019c0ea417152ccb7fe27ae016bb78.mp4
RSSIA is the annual Russian Summer School on Institutional Analysis organized by the Center for Institutional Studies, National Research University Higher School of Economics (CInSt, HSE). This year there will be held the 11th RSSIA "The EU Practices for Young Researchers: Studying Economics of Institutional Development" (RSSIA 2017). It is aimed to focus on recent developments in NIE and possibilities and challenges of applied research in the institutional economics framework. Our goal is to disseminate the best practices of institutional change and effective institutional reforms to assure their successful application at the less developed markets and the economies in or immediately after the transition.
The Yegor Gaidar Foundation will provide several travel grants covering the ticket costs for the participants living in Russia but outside Moscow. Eligible participants will be able to apply for travel grants  as soon as their applications for RSSIA 2017 are accepted.

1067  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Hillary figured out how to Trump revenge for the defeat. on: May 06, 2017, 01:56:52 AM
Next week Hillary will publish on the establishment of a new political force that will resist policy Trump. She's already decided on by the Board of Directors and the financing of their political power.
Fighting back over what because she lost the election? She should give peace a space. Her power is in the media outside that she can stand with Trump in reality. If she fighting because of the masses in her country fine but if it is for her own interests just because of next election then bad.
I think it is resentment for the defeat in the elections. But who knows, maybe it really is better than Trump. In a major war I don't believe. Though Trump, at least Hillary will not risk open war with China and Russia, a war with North Korea I do not fear

Do not underestimate the dollar. If the world falls down then only gold can become dimensional materials. Bitcoin primarily depends on electricity and the Internet

No one is underestimating the US Dollar. Other currencies such as the Euro and the CNY have been trying to displace the USD as the currency of international trade for quite some time now. But they have failed miserably.
It seems to me that the Americans have nothing to do with bitcoin, but they may prevent the conversion of bitcoin into other currencies. This can significantly reduce the demand for it if it is not established free circulation of bitcoins.
1069  Other / Politics & Society / Elon Musk told what is "metro" for cars on: May 06, 2017, 01:30:43 AM
Despite some skepticism, it turned out, Elon Musk has decided to build underground tunnels for cars. For this we have created a company called "Boring Company", which recently got a huge drilling rig.
Last week Business Insider reported that Musk in February of this year, began to dig a small tunnel under the SpaceX facility in California to accommodate vehicles, which ultimately will be the basis of an underground transport network. However, on their own land, the founder of Tesla is free to do what you want, but in Los Angeles, where he is going to start digging an underground motorway, he will have to get permission. It is believed that Musk is planning to build under the city the whole underground network, which may include 30 levels of tunnels for cars and Hyperloop.
At the end of last week was released the first promotional video showing how the Tesla Model S's Parking the car on the Elevator platform, descends into the earth and leaves along the rail on the same platform, walking along a predetermined route at a speed of 200 km/h and then rises again to the surface.
The idea of traveling underground with a speed of 200 km/hour attractive as it relieves congestion and reduces travel time. But, say, a large-scale project such infrastructure, requiring huge investments, the government is unlikely to support, as they do not always have the money to repair ordinary roads. https://youtu.be/u5V_VzRrSBI

When and where were these taken?
Recently in the British Concord College, where children of Poroshenko, held a photo session on the eve of exams and graduation. Journalist Levko Stek noticed that one photo of Michael posing in a "stylish t-shirt Russia".
However, users have noticed that in the picture "eaten" by the letter "U" and suggested that, most likely, we are talking about a uniform shirt RSSIA (Russian Summer School of Institutional Analytics, the Russian summer school on institutional analysis).
Meanwhile, Stack argues that this t-shirt Bosco clothing Russian athletes.

I think that bitcoin is bit like anarcho-capitalist movement and I would not see any reasons why socialist like Le Pen would really like it(Yes they still can support some centralized adapt of blockchain technology). Still I would like to see Le Pen to be elected because I am anti multiculturalism and so. And after all she wont have much power over bitcoin.
It has no power. The election she will not win that's for sure. It can take you to Parliament many members, but it is only in the event that the investigation against her does not prove her guilt. Who knows, maybe she will run away to Russia and we've never hear.
1072  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Donetsk, Kharkov, Lugansk - way to Russia. on: May 05, 2017, 01:39:09 AM
Russia wants to seize Ukraine. Will not work. Even if the West refuses to help Ukraine, the Russian army simply did not have the strength for it. The entire might of the Russian army, the whole world saw in Syria. The carrier with the engine on the wood and falling aircraft.

Russian army is the second strongest army in the world, while their Ukrainian counterparts would struggle to get included in the top 100 list. If the Russians want, they can invade the whole of Ukraine in a day or two. Be happy that Putin is not in a mood for such an adventure.
You say that because I don't know the real situation in the Russian army. You just repeat the thesis that inspired you Putin TV. Poorly trained army armed with the old weapons does not scare anybody. Nothing you can't do against Ukraine.
In fact, it's true because they are practically starting from scratch to set up a new army in Ukraine and train them according to all world standards. Training and armament are very important, but the most important is motivation.
It is not only motivation. Ukraine is not small country and in Russian simply does not have the resources to control such a territory. Russia is a fake state. In addition to propaganda, Putin did not.
1073  Other / Politics & Society / Re: What going on in turkey right now? on: May 05, 2017, 01:30:29 AM
Today's news: Two major turkish channels, NTV and Star TV, are both fined over Victoria’s Secret show and facing a crackdown from Turkey’s television watchdog.

"the broadcasts of such a fashion show was actually proving damaging to the physical, psychological and moral development of children in Turkey", said the turkish Radio and Television Supreme Council.

In short, one by one, anything "west" related is banned. Simply as that!

Next step, internet limitation (?)
Wait on the street will be arrested and put in prison for criticizing Erdogan. When there was a coup had to think and support him. Now there will be more victims. What regardless of whether you are struggling with Erdogan or not.

Complete idiocy. You do not know why an earthquake occurs? God can't even do lighter tasks. God exists only in the mind, and shake the earth head is very problematic.
1075  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Crazy shit Bible says, crazy shit Christians say on: May 05, 2017, 01:17:23 AM
Bible is the assembled of many books in different culture ,tradition and different years, different prophets and apostles with different ideas and experiences, what written in the bible is the idea and wisdom of the writers.

Christians don't generally say anything like that. Actually, you are the first I have ever heard say this. Well, of course I didn't "hear" it. I read it in your post. But if you'd rather I heard it, I could read it out loud for you.

 Grin

Christians deny this because they do not want to go down in history and look at the facts. It's easier for them to simply believe in something incomprehensible that they just do not bother searching for the truth.

Actually, believing in Jesus salvation is the ONLY way to make it to Heaven.

Cool
LOL! If you do not believe in God and to work and save money for donations to the Church you can buy a ticket for a Falcon 9 and is guaranteed to go to heaven. God can hardly compete with commercial software.

During the election campaign, Trump did not hide the fact that he wants to dramatically increase the us military budget. I don't know where did the belief that Hillary is a war, and Trump world guy. Americans have been deceived.
1077  Other / Politics & Society / Re: The FBI called the largest threat to the Earth on: May 05, 2017, 01:05:12 AM

Sometimes you gotta "lose". Soon USA will learn how to lose.
Really? I don’t see the US losing any war anytime soon (not at least unless there’s some big nuclear war, in which case everybody loses).


The lose USA is going to experience won't be like a regular war where you kill and get killed.

It will be a financial one. Free hint for you: Gold.

If you think USA will stay king forever by printing FIAT then you must be high. Sooner or later bubbles will start popping and USD will be a dead currency. (it is already dead tbh, we are playing the extensions)
I have great hopes for bitcoin, but let's be realistic. Soon it will not happen. Besides, we still don't know how it will work in America when they feel a real threat from bitcoin.
Do not underestimate the dollar. If the world falls down then only gold can become dimensional materials. Bitcoin primarily depends on electricity and the Internet
The whole world is not falling. Somewhere Yes the electricity will be. I think that sooner or later will be released by cash gold bitcoin. This will be the beginning of the end of the dollar. The hegemony of the United States can not be eternal.

I do not pity the people of Venezuela. That they burned American flags and vote for Chavez, Maduro. They got what they wanted. For any action to respond. They didn't think about what people in all countries spend a lot of money to fill your car. They have gasoline cost cheaper than water.
1079  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Christianity is Poison on: May 05, 2017, 12:08:29 AM
Every religion is poison for the brain. Believers believe the words of religious leaders and are not able to analyze the words and actions. If the Patriarch goes to the Mercedes S class then how can you believe him about what the pursuit of luxury is a sin?

Scientists make up science theories. Some of these theories are evolution, relativity, big bang, and black hole. No body knows if these theories are factual or not. If they were factual, they would become science law, and not remain theories.

Some scientists and the media say that some of these theories are factual. But these theories are not known to be factual. We can tell that the theories are not factual, because they are science theories, not science laws.

When people believe and trust that these theories are factual, because they believe the scientists and media who are lying to them, this part of science has become religion for them. So, as you say, there is religion that is poison for the brain. It is science religion.

Cool
But you can't really believe that God molded man from clay? This is nonsense! The Bible is the first example in history of a hybrid war. Those who wrote it took the actual events and rewriting them in his own way. In the end, it turned out fiction but based on real events.

You've been thinking? Think again! The difference is that the US and Britain warned that they will use weapons, but Assad has already used. I'm not talking about the bombing of city blocks.
