And yet, here you are. And "boring" is relative. To some it is *.
Not every one. But the KGB were masters at convincing their useful idiots to rally against technological progress in the West. It was a strategy that long outlived them; generations after the KGB and the USSR went belly up, their evil children continue to spawn more evil children. The commies were successful in ways the Nazis could have only *dreamed* of.
This reflects on society’s willingness to pay for prisons to “warehouse”’the poorest members of society.
That means it's awesome.
No, just those whose beliefs are the products of communism. Since nothing *but* evil comes from communism, that part follows, but not all those who disagree with me are evil or communist. Some are simply wrong.
I'm actually a fan of historical ironies: if the former Spanish French and Portuguese colonies in Africa, India and South America had not become independent they would now be part of the European Union, while there are Eastern European countries willing to wage costly wars of independence in order to join the European Union. Who are they running from? At the other extreme is England, which has been forced to leave the European Union to avoid becoming a German colony. The devil is in the details.
That's essentially the plot of the 1959 French film The Magnificent Tramp, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Archimède_le_clochard, so color me skeptical.
Waiting for hubby to come home from work? Could be a scene from a Tarantino movie...
Size is not important if you know how to use the weapon with discipline.
Could be. There are of course at least two ways that could go:
Uhhh... the US government would be *all* *over* regulating such things. Bureau of Land Management and Department of Agriculture nitpick the hell out of agriculture and mining *now.* If Americans started colonizing efforts - say, colonizing the vast empty stretches of Britain - you can rest assured the US FedGuv would instantly produce a Department of Colonization.
Cyrano Jones was an independent asteroid prospector. Elder Sisko owned a restaurant. Cassidy Yates owned a tramp freighter. Everyone who could, did business with the Ferengi, because the Ferengi, since they were capitalists, got things *done.* And it seems everyone outside of the major urban areas packs heat. Most of the "point of view" seems to come specifically from Picard, and he is in many ways your stereotypical clueless and arrogant limosine liberal... preaching the virtues of not seeking wealth while owning a vast French vineyard complete with a bunch of actual servants. Relying on Picard to explain the reality of life in the UFP is kinda like relying on a Hollywood celebrity to do so. Which makes sense, given who writes him.
The failure of the totalitarian and Communists projects is not in its evils, as such things is determined by the will of the leadership. The failure of those projects is in the inability to process complex information to adapt to fast paced modern economies.
Well, hell, son, the original series was *spectacularly* American. Kirk was religious to some degree, while Picard claimed that humanity had become universally atheist (a ridiculous assertion, but one that a limo-lib like him can be readily believed to believe); Kirk was a Big Big Fan of Abe Lincoln and had memorized the Declaration of Independence; he lied to carry a sidearm and he didn't mind other people doing likewise (his yeoman even using a phaser to warm up his coffee); he was proudly masculine and loved him some hot babes of every nationality/species; he loved rules *and* he loved breaking them. He was an iconic American for the time, and I'd say for all time.
Being a monopolist doesn't rule out being a capitalist.
"Even" the US?
'Even' as in 'Even the USA, that paragon of capitalist states'.
Apparently this makes sense to you, but it comes across as gibberish to me.

There.
Who's hijacking it? I am *fantastically* on topic, arguing some engineering dreams and why many haven't come true. You're going on about tennis rather than engaging. I've not seen you come up with theories why dreams have failed, just mostly complaining that people have opinions you don't like.
Unlike in Marx predictions, Tepco didn’t get the monopoly by growing and outcompeting other companies, it was just given to them. We had similar structures in Germany and the EDF in France (surly better in terms of safety) is another example of socialistic structures in western nations. The main target for those companies was never to be very efficient to be competitive, but to offer as much well payed jobs as possible for ex-politicians and their allied. Another purpose of those energe supply monsters was money transfer and financing, the French government transferred their depts to EDF, so that their budget looked better than it was. The RWE (ab large, traditional very coal orientated electricity supplier in western Germany) sold electricity for high prices to pay of their shareholder, sounds like capitalism, right? Truth is, those shareholders were mainly towns and the country of NRW which were ruled by the socialist…Being a monopolist doesn't rule out being a capitalist.
Antitrust legislation is needed to undo/prevent cartels, monopolies and price-fixing.
Even the USA has antitrust legislation.Antitrust Laws: What They Are, How They Work, Major Examples
Antitrust laws apply to virtually all industries and to every level of business, including manufacturing, transportation, distribution, and marketing.www.investopedia.com
I can't recall writing that. Ever.
