Or you can pickup at the bar and have a chance of being a daddy 9 months later, in which case it will cost you 18 years of your disposable income.

Take your pick.

Flint is a virgin because he thinks sex is bad for you.

Honestly, your risk of catching a deadly STD from a medium to high range escort/prostitute is negligible. Your chance for catching AIDS, for example, is 1 in 1000 if you use a condom. Without a condom it's 1 in 100. What you want to be worried about is catching something that will make your life miserable, like genital warts or herpes. You can take shots to prevent the riskier strains of HPV, and well the best you can do for herpes is not have sex when there's a break out. The problem is that that's not very reliable, since some people have asymptomatic herpes or a break out is about to occur. But still, your chance of contracting herpes is 3 in 100 if you use a condom.

Btw Flint has been married before, and unless he had a sexless marriage I doubt he's a virgin.

Also, what can the Governor General do if he/she is pissed at the Prime Minister, and by pissed I mean devoted to bring him/her down?

Question.

If you are conservative on economic issues but liberal on how people live their lives, does that make you a liberal or a conservative?

I own a sword! And it's sharp.

Acolyte,

Fair enough. But I am honestly skeptical that it could ever work. One reason is that coercive power tends to get abused, if you know what I mean.

Good to know you're above water and doing okay . When you have kids, please remember to have at least three. The world needs an increase in intelligent people!

So where do you work? I'm guessing some sort of biological work?

Skoe,

No, it's essential to an optimally productive and minimally expensive social organization. It's just not valued enough, because we're sadly moving toward a "nanny state."

My view, though, is that present government regulation changed the incentives of CEOs to being short-sighted hoarders. So in a sense, government regulation caused it, and now we need more regulation... It's like a web that creates more problems as it increases in complexity as you try to patch it up.

<Social Security should be privatized and we should put more emphasis on reducing the national debt and bring fiscal responsibility back to government. I have no problem with helping people when their down for a "short" period of time, I do have a problem with supporting people for years upon years.>

Agreed. I have no problem helping people who fell down for a while, but a lot of people abuse the system. But as we tried to patch up those abuses, we created a huge bureaucracy that substantially increased the cost.

Acolyte,

Hehe. I'm disillusioned that hiring paramilitary groups for protection could lead to a lot of competition (war) and coercion.

So how's life and the wifey? Any babies yet?

The elite don't pay taxes, or it's an insignificant part of their income.

And really, a flat tax of 20% or so would probably close the loop holes that elites are able to use in order to avoid taxes, and it would alleviate the burden on the rest of us who are easily paying 50% of our taxes. We could then use that income to purchase our own health care services etc.

Yes, thank you.

That and a sizable number of them never heard of planned parenthood (or any other means of getting tested).

Xeno,

I do not share your experiences. I think your social life is limited or you're engaging in wishful thinking, or both.

Any how, it's time for America to get passed Federalism. I don't see myself as a Minnesotan, rather as an American.

ahahaha. I thought State's rights were by now reduced to only a formality, and by now the federal government was able to successfully centralize control. Looks like those Southerners need another beating, well in the future. In the mean time, the federal government needs some sane people in it and Obama out of office. We can beat up the South again later.

I'm an anti-Federalist. I am in favor of America as a unitarian nation-state, where states are nothing more than administrative divisions.
