Situation in Strait of Hormuz coming to a boil

That's what it seems at first, but if this war lasts even a few years, it won't seem that way anymore.

I say he should already have in advance a plan for the war, and send his kids to Canada.

I hope that day never comes. A complete machine has no moral code and an entire robotic military would have no ties to a countries populace(a military with no ties to a populace, will not flinch if it is ordered against that populace). It would essentially give the govermentan an entirly loyal military, and leave the common man with no power. Plus there is the terminator scenario which i'm sure most people don't want.

Nope. Unless they drafted me, I'd never enlist. I'm too selfish.

Correction, you are too human.

Dieing for an administration that doesn't give a flying fuck about you is the stupidest idea concievable.

That's the point, isn't it. William T. Sherman "I think I know what military fame is: to be killed on the field of battle and have your name misspelled in the newspapers."

and thats how I want to go out, with my name misspelled on the newspapers.

Come on guys, sometimes when you play a 5 year old in Monopoly your supposed to let him win. So we might as well give Iran this one chance to act big and tough before their economy implodes like the USSR times a million.

I don't let him win, I crush him into a little bulp and make him no who is the god king of Monopoly and then he learns his place in life.

Iran economy Implode, no way there going to be the next economic super power....oh and Cyrus the great is back from the dead and Iran Just conquered Athens.

Fun Fact: Monopoly was made by a socialist to criticize capitalism.

(it was intended to illustrate the negative aspects of concentrating land in private monopolies).

I always try to cite anti-monopoly laws when I start loosing in Monopoly. It works surprisingly ineffectively.

Monopoly is fun.
More than once, I gained a huge amount of terrictories and money and then buy one terrictory from the weakest player and then sell all of my terictories to him for one dollar. Then I exit the game, having just *****ed over the other players or at least helping the losing one.

I never win. I just get unlucky. I always give out loans to people with no money though. They tend to go bankrupt before they can pay me back though.

Fun Fact: I always win in Monopoly. And Georgism is not the same as socialism. In the eyes of Henry George, capital was an extension of labor (or labour is you prefer), he says that the gains both rise and fall together, in oppisition to land rents. To a Georgists, it is land, not capital, that is the root of exploitation. In some sense the goals are similar, but the theory and methods are different.

Fun fact: Henry George predicted if Karl Marx's ideas where tried the most likely result that would come up would be dictatorship. and also I am the god of Monopoly.

Hmm... loaning out money to people who can't pay back... sounds familiar...
