Great talk. Covers a lot of very important key areas.

It is utterly ridiculous that so many people just do not care about this, and to be honest this is what concerns AND scares me about the future of humanity. To understand and to give a flying f*ck about these topics you must be knowledgeable and fairly smart (and also realize that your government AND others are NOT your friend--if you ever give someone power they MUST be held accountable and have a regulatory process--though these people "can" be your friend, but only when they truly are used by the people and not the government, lackeys, elected officials, and other idiots that make cronyism look like a mild and easily dealt with issue compared to this stuff...). This is an education system and social system problem (at least in the U.S.; we simply just DO NOT care about these topics very much even though we will regret it), and it is hard to fix since in many cases the "fix" must go through the same government that has a stranglehold on their populace and wishes it to remain this way...

People simply do not understand why we talk about this (or they "fall asleep" because it's "too boring", etc...), along with this they also don't care about science and other issues that require your brain to actually do work. So all issues that deal with complex areas of technology and/or science are now up for "dibs" by the highest bidders AND also governments. Both are scary, for many reasons...especially when you have a populace that really and truly does not understand that they are being used in so many different areas of their lives (which is true even now, and it will only become far, far worse).

So, I'm always happy to see these talks, but they will not truly succeed in any of their efforts until they make the "masses" aware of the issues and concerned of the issues.

I also appreciated his quote about the economic viability of slavery, used as a metaphor for the the moral use of torture and whether torture should ever be used to get, anything--I fully agree with this sentiment. Both, are always wrong.

Good talk. Though it is sad there are so very little ways to respond to the threats that some of these issues can represent, that they showed and talked about.

I call dibs on the first cherry flavored nitrogen snow cone!

"NO! You idiot! I've almost got those fat-assed tourists in the truck thinking they'll be safe out here. FUCKING CHILL!"

"Oh. Cool. I'll look all non-chalant. I call dibs on the plus sized bitch in the sun hat."

I call dibs on having this kid on my team when the Zombie Apocalypse happens!

DIbs ! I just couldnt wait.

Whoa, geek level high! I am awfully impressed.

I think your wife may have something to say about calling dibs on her, too.

Lets get this right up front.

If that's the way it's going to be, then when this double is done, I've got dibs.

Owl: Hmmm. I can see THAT guy in the back row has no chance with that woman.
Moth flops down to the ground.
Owl: Oooohhh... what have we here?
Owl runs toward blind, dying moth.
Owl, looking around: Hey! Anyone call dibs on this? Anyone? Hey? Last chance!
Owl pounce!
Owl: What? You wanted that moth? Where'd it go? I don't see it. You see where it went? How about you check back over there?
Owl waits.

Obamacare makes them less likely to hire people. What was keeping them from hiring people prior to Obamacare?

And why is that Rmoney is associated with coming into companies, gutting the workforce and abandoning it to die under it's crushing debt and he's now supposed to be a job creator? He is known for increasing profits. Increasing profits does not mean more jobs. In fact it usually means shipping jobs overseas so they can increase their margins and maintain the past price.


It's like some magical code they speak in where everything sounds like what you want to hear but means something entirely different to people who have lots of wealth. Namely, what he says means I get richer while everyone forms a nice human stair case to the top....never mind the guys at the bottom of the crush who are starving for air due to the press of bodies. The guys Im walking on are pretty damn lucky and they know it...they get first dibs on the less profitable ventures I ignore.

Dibs on the 'stache at the bottom left! =oD
