    I thought we weren't allowed to sell iPods containing songs where the songs are anything but incidental (to be deleted on receipt!) and are not party to the value in any way.

    @Hello Mister Walrus: Why doesn't it matter?


    How much I make matters when it comes to how much I pay into the system. The more I make, the bigger the chunk I pay.


    I think it's definitely a load of crap that we're paying ANY frivolous expenses for former presidents when they're freezing current employee pay rates.

    They get a salary (which is already outrageously high) while in office...


    Paying for security? I can understand that. But phone bills and cable? That's just downright absurd.

    I think failing CEO's making tens of millions in salary, then getting as much or more in severance packages is several orders of magnitude more absurd...

    @lausley: What exactly is a war criminal? Could you define that?


    Because, really when it comes to international law I cannot think of any way in which a war is actually "legal". Seeing as outside of the civil type (which isn't civil at all) it involves invading another sovereign country.

    Well at least I see him out in public attempting to help with his charities and foundations and such. Some of that money could actually be international calls. It's guys like Bush Sr and the other presidents we are still paying for that sit in their cabins for most of the day that piss me off.
