Clueless idiots like Pamela and her views are why Chavez existed in the first place. There would be no need for a leader with an iron fist to nationalize industries to provide social support...if there are none of these "Pamela Sampson" who probably think that governments should be slaves to...

That is a huge understatement. He was voted in by his people with an overwhelming majority after decades of useless puppets that caters only to foreign corporation that pays the minimum, take all the resources out, monopolize key industries and leaves absolutely nothing for the citizens...

So sad, he was part of the group of South American leaders that kicked out the foreign corporate strangle hold in the continent that resulted in people not being able to afford water, and having to pay more than they should for oil and other natural resources that came from their own countries...

I vaguely remembered interviews of him saying he "had no problem killing" those people because they are "savages", and came somewhat close to saying that he enjoyed it. Disgusting. Better heroes are those front-line soldiers who came back to the US with broken limbs, those who came back with...

Like I JUST said in my post...nearly all of the successful "defense" are against house thieves/robbers who make themselves known far ahead of time. Police: Natomas man shoots, kills girlfriend he mistook for intruder | news10.net Cops: Woman kills husband, mistaking him for intruder - U.S...

Quoting NRA posters and talking points over and over doesn't make it a fact. What was not mentioned about Israel is that in general their rate of gun ownership is extremely low in comparison to a lot of countries. Quite a few countries in Europe has more guns per capita in comparison to Israel...

Per capita we have less gun crimes. Oh, and we have less crime of every other sort as well even though we are not armed to the teeth. And frankly the number of people dying in the US due to criminals having guns far outnumbers the number of people dying in Canada due to people not having guns...

We Canadians watch pretty much ALL the violent entertainment that comes out of the US and yet we don't have nearly as much problem with guns. In fact, a significant portion of our gun crimes are caused by smuggled guns from south of the border. There are times when I wish the continent could be...

Its nothing out of ordinary...politicians in the entire world does the same thing. There had been plenty of stories of pharmaceutical CEOs who took jobs in the American government then proceeded to pass laws that are beneficial for their industry...or to block any reforms that would hurt it...

Easiest explanation is that there's no evidence that there will be any benefit from foreign intervention other than being able to say that a dictator is dead and oil companies get richer. In Libya's case, all it did was that power was transferred from Gaddafi to the rebel, who have not shown...

It won't happen any time soon. China may want the yuan to be the world currency, but she doesn't want other to speculate and profit off the country in the progress. The last country to be in this position was Japan, and what happened was that the Yen was allowed to appreciate so fast (partly...

The most likely thing to happen is that the PQ would try to turn Quebec into another Hong Kong. Separation on its own wouldn't protect their French culture from diminishing because the place is surrounded on 3 sides by English speaking people....that is unless they turn into North Korea and...

Apple did change the way we use phones, and they deserved to be compensated for that. But that already happened for years, Apple now has over 60 billion in cash and is the biggest company in the world. The original intent of the patent system was to shield SMALL inventors who have brilliant...

Never mind what Obama did...we Canadians bailed out GM even more than the Americans considering the proportion of our economy/population. GM took our money and proceeded to close more plants in Canada after a year or so. !@#$%^ them.

It was obvious that Samsung was going to lose just by looking at how the trial proceeded. Pretty Much all of the crucial evidences that Samsung has were suppressed for dumb reasons like being a bit late (but new evidences being admitted is pretty usual in a trial) and by having a stupid 25...

Rumor is the least important thing to worry about. Those could easily be proven false, even though its supposed to be innocent until proven guilty to begin with. What's worse than that is the hijacking of the media by either foreign, corporate, or other interest groups that can put a negative...

US, Japan, Europe...They're all the same. All are in debt and need saving but only want people to buy their junk investments like government bonds, failing companies without significant values, properties with inflated prices, etc...then cry foul when the countries with money actually want to...

Deliberately crashing in cycling is actually worse compared to the badminton case because the athletes don't get a disadvantage for not crashing. The badminton "scandal" on the other hand was inevitable because of the horrible system that is set up to reward the loser and punish the winner...

Pretty amazing considering here in Canada (and probably in the US too) business classes in universities are literally teaching students that bonuses will ruin companies because workers would end up expecting it, or how if you don't pay bonuses after the first time workers will "lose morale" and...

Having some experience with the whole outsourcing business...what these small companies don't seem to understand is that Chinese manufacturers have business senses just like any other manufacturers. If you're a small company going to China chances are they will treat you as second priority...
