    Is Copyright Infringement Morally Equivalent to Stealing?

    I wouldn't say it's "stealing" because you're not taking something away. A CD costs $14.67 USD after taxes at Best Buy. That's more than I make in an hour so I'm not buying it if I have a house to pay for! Linkin Park & their label didn't get their money. I download the songs on high speed...

    News China more popular than U.S. overseas

    Yeah I believe it. Logically thinking, USA probably isn't at the top of the world's favorite countries list.

    Haven't we made Iraq a democracy? Isn't that one of the nice accomplishements of this little war? Well it looks like some people aren't standing down... You said it right there about what people : "insurgent group shooting back at you". Who would these be people be firing at if Saddam were...

    News Uh-Oh, are the politicans fibbing again(RE:Iraq)?

    If we weren't there would there be many "insurgents" to kill? How many of these disproportianate amount that we slaughtered needed to be slaughtered? How many rose up agains America because they were there rather than because they had an inveterate animosity towards USA AND would have attacked...

    News Uh-Oh, are the politicans fibbing again(RE:Iraq)?

    Would a terrorist say "you know, I'm in a democracy. Screw the bomb, I'm throwing it away. I'm going to college!" Right! The government type could change but the PEOPLE there in the region won't...

    News Uh-Oh, are the politicans fibbing again(RE:Iraq)?

    What does the war on terror have to do with democracy? I have heard people talk about communism saying "it sounds good on paper but it doesn't work in real life" Not to compare democracy to communism but the idea "a democratic society won't have terrorists/as many terrorists" is still...

    News Uh-Oh, are the politicans fibbing again(RE:Iraq)?

    We're not going to change their minds. What I meant was why make it easy? I want to be a millionaire but I'm not likely winning the lottery. It's like we handed the terrorists the ticket to make it easy to realize their ambitions.

    News Uh-Oh, are the politicans fibbing again(RE:Iraq)?

    If these are indeed "terrorist" attacks that have already taken more than 1700 American lives then the terrorists have already claimed more than half the toll from 9/11. So even if we prevent any more attacks on the magnitude of 9/11, we are still giving them a bountiful and endless supply of...

    News Uh-Oh, are the politicans fibbing again(RE:Iraq)?

    Hooray for the war! Let's give the terrorists some targets! Before it used to be they would have to save up, sneak into U.S.A, get pilot licenses, etc. and go through all this hassle. Now there's a buffet right here at home! The war on terror is a great idea. Let's give them homefield advantage...

    Using monkeys as workers on an industrial scale - ethical questions

    I can't think of an animal that isn't sentient. You're right. Sadistically torturing them for fun is immoral.

    There are so many tools for parents these days.

    Yes I'm so lame I must reply to my own post. Just had one more thought: If you have cable or satellite, there is an option for cut or uncut. The cable networks still make the programming, and still censor it. There are just two versions. When you sign up for service you get to pick based on your...

    There are so many tools for parents these days.

    There are so many tools for parents these days. The cable boxes have parental controls. The satellite boxes have parental controls. There are v-chips built into the T.Vs. There is an excellent rating system. Why then must EVERYBODY suffer. I'm not a kid and I have no kids. I lOVE hip-hop but I...

    News Media & Politics: Examining the Relationship

    :smile: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! :smile: I don't recall asking you to look up THAT definition. But you're right; I didn't proofread my post very well. That's one too many n's. I must therefore be completely wrong about everything. Don't worry because I can overlook your grammatical errors; I...

    News Media & Politics: Examining the Relationship

    I will admit we don't know everything because the government does hide stuff. It's their job and there is classified information so there must be something else I just can't imagine what it is not being a government official and neither can the media so it's really a tough question!
