With the gradual decline of Communist governments in the world today, since the fall of the Soviet Union, do you think there might be another 'new' Communist government within the world soon? If so, what country do you think might be the 'next' new Communist government within the world, if probable?


I would think that the Himalayan country of Nepal might probably soon transition into a Communist government.

Remember 3 years ago? March of 2003. We were told by Bush and company the war will last about 8 months in Iraq and the oil over there will pay for the war. Also we were told the Iraqi people would love us to death. ( Open arms and open hearts) Well, Bush is somewhat correct. They have loved us to death 2,656 times. ( Hard to believe people believed what Bush was saying back in 2003 )

As far as I can tell, their business model relies on crawling the entire Internet, then downloading it to their servers and presenting that content within their websites, then linking to these sites.

So my question is: How is this legal? Some sites explicitly forbid crawling in their TOS.

Is it just that no one has sued yet?

recently relocating to the Central Florida area, during the move I lost my wallet.I have been to the DMV and turned away for lack of a birth cert. I have been turned away from the SS office to get a duplicate card for lack of a photo ID, I can't get a birth cert. with out a photo ID, I am in a vicious circle or a catch 22, with no help or word of advise from the above agencies, they all just look at me sympatheticaly, shaking their heads, and say.."I know, I know..."What can I do, where can I go? I need to get a job, and can not because of lack of identity.

I'll put this in a hypothetical way, since many will argue we don't have an economic draft, or that if we had a draft the rich would find a way out of it anyway.

Assuming an economic draft to be a deliberate system of economic manipulation to create a class of people who need to join the military to meet their economic needs, giving them few other options (except near total poverty)
And that with an actual draft (compulsory service) you could find a way to defeat the corruption so that everyone would be equally susceptible

Which is better/worse, an economic draft or a full-on mandatory draft?

New Labour, Liberal Democrat, Conservative, BNP, UKIP, Green, Monster Raving Loony Party, etc, etc?

I've voted Liberal Democrat and Green recently, but I don't really feel there's a party out there that truly represent my beliefs. Labour would have been the closest, although still a compromise, but I'm not voting for them again after Iraq, amongst other things.

So where do your allegiences lie?

I hear this over and over again, folks saying that we need to drop everything we're doing and catch the man: get out of Iraq to catch him. Get out of the Philippines to catch him. Get out of Malaysia and Indoniesia to catch him. Cease our operations worldwide to commit every ounce of our resources to catch the man.

Does it occur to anyone that al-Qaeda is much larger than some guy in a cave? Does anyone know how autonomous the whole operations is? Wouldn't it be a better use of resources to actually focus on the people carrying out operations, and the people financing the operations?

Yeah, it would be a nice morale boost to catch him, like landing on an aircraft carrier, but that won't do anything but incite the membership further, especially if he is killed and made a martyr. (He had a dozen bodyguards, all instructed to kill him if he is under threat of capture)
