Serious / Re: Is smoking/drinking/doing drugs while pregnant child abuse?« on: January 21, 2015, 11:40:48 PM »This.I would say so, yes. The child becomes much more likely to be fucked up for life and it's entirely the mother's fault for being irresponsible. It's not like...beating your kid senseless, but it's equally bad.I'd rather be beaten a bit too much than live with the effects of FAS. I'd say calling it "abuse" might be cutting it short. 4143
Serious / Re: Online voting - could it work?« on: January 21, 2015, 10:07:20 PM »We'd definitely see larger turnouts, but I seriously question the abilities of the government to maintain security and prevent fraudulent internet voting.Could they create their own program to download for voting and would that be any more secure? 4144

Serious / Re: Official Serious economic poll« on: January 21, 2015, 11:39:14 AM »What about an ancient community where, for example, the men go out and hunt and gather while women stay and make clothes and other things enough to fill the needs of every person.Wouldn't ancient civilizations that existed before money was created be closer to communism than capitalism?Those were barter economies (ex: four chicken eggs for a loaf of bread). Currency came about because a standard medium of exchange makes conducting business much easier for everyone. 4148

It only doesn't work if we switch straight to communism... we need a long transition period from capitalism to socialism to communism (this would take a century or two)...Even if you could make it work, there's nothing to suggest it'd be superior to capitalism. 4152

Serious / Re: Soldier Worship.« on: January 20, 2015, 12:16:50 AM »You seemed to imply that everyone itt criticizing Chris Kyle just hate all US soldiers, basically proving Door's point.Don't care what you think about the man, I can always respect him for protecting those soldiers he was overwatch for. That's not an easy job and a lot of brutal things happened over there the majority of people don't know about. But people will look for any reason to put down an US soldier nowadays, its the cool thing to do.Since when were we not allowed to criticize peoples' actions? 4155

I can't remember what my last ban was for. I just remember posting in a thread where a mod had made a joke and I made a slightly more offensive, way funnier joke and I was convinced he banned me because he was jealous.
