Because that's what shareholders only care about. Not that I agree with that. I think it's a very bad practice, one that put short term profits over overall, lifetime profits (not necessarily monetary). Short sighted, decadent.

Alright my little Racist Troll. ... Questions Answered! Now get back under your bridge!
If i were a troll, I'd claim "Mission Accomplished". Now, if you're finished your ravings, let's get to the point.
So you admit that your government reacts badly to terrorism, even that your country created much of the reason for them to exist (bombing the shit out of a country tends to negative responses, you know. I doubt they're just jealous of your freedoms), and you still blame the towelheads?
We knee jerk react to everything. Not sure why, but we do.
Maybe this have something to do with it. Placing blame on others for your actions.
"No thanks. I'd rather my country use its power to do some good in the world" "It's quite easy to say, "just stay out of the fight". Easy, and cowardly...."
It's a nice sentiment, but as I said, your country seems to completely lack the political and religional understanding of these people, yet you're so eager to jump in and "make order" in an area your govt previously destabilized itself. As it is, I doubt your government's sincerity and benignness on helping these people out, and hence would prefer if you just stayed the fuck out of it.
Or you could - for once - stay out of other people's business and try not to police the world. Because your country apparently doesn't have the knowledge and understanding of the situation, moral and ethical standing or authority to do so.
Yes yes, I'm busted, I add nothing to the conversation. Not. I won't elaborate on why laughing out someone and using sarcasm isn't trolling.
I called you out on your childish blaming of terrorists for your own governments actions, and your failure to act against it. It seems it went straight over your head.
Careful, your racism is showing.. very trollish. My fine disregard of "political correctness" is what shows. Because, you know, driving home a point is more important in a conversation (for me, at least) than speaking nicely about everyone.
You seem a little jealous. Oh, don't worry, my shitty little country's government resembles more to a democracy than yours. I gave up all desire to come to yours a long time ago (mainly because you becoming a police state, fuckin' crazy IP laws and waging war on every poor sod on this plane)
Ad hominems not aside, you are a fucking troll. Keep repeating it. Maybe someone will believe you someday. Ad hominems aside - from your side. Like this one: "if your comments are any indication of your intellect".
So, will you finally address the points I raised about your comment, or continue to whine about fictional creatures? Namely: - Why do you think terrorists have the sophistication to influence a big government (intentionally) like yours? - Why do you think it's not the other way around, and your govt using said groups as an excuse to do what they already doing? - Why do you think it's someone else's duty to keep your government in check?
Basically for the orthodox this planet is theirs by right because God gave them this planet. All the rest of humanity are sinners and usurpers.
And the real problem is that these fundamentalist idiots are no better than (I'd say they're much worse) the fundamentalist idiots in the middle east beheading people, all the while giving bad name and fuel to hate groups against their own religion.
Fundamentalist jews believe in Mein Kampf II (living space, supreme race, enslaving or exterminating everybody else etc), and they have the means to do much more damage than a few towelheads with worn down weapons.
Hitler were a fuckin idiot for trying to do what AJ suggest: punish an entire group of people for the actions of a few extremist.
They have used terror to manipulate our Government Indeed you implied. /s
What you really imply is that cave monkeys with 60 y/o AK-s somehow manipulate hundreds of USG officials to try to crush your precious democracy into a blend of police state and corporate oligarchy. It's the other way around. You let corporations pressure your government into unnecessary, never ending wars for profit, then blame the poor idiots who raise against you and use them as an excuse to further their agenda - for more profit.
Good, because if your comments are any indication of your intellect, I would prefer you just kept your mouth shut and didn't waste our time. "our time" how many of you are there? You shouldn't skip your pills, MPD is no joke.
Ad hominems aside, please show me a trollish or unintelligent comment.
NSA, TSA, Stop and Frisk, Militarization of our police, secret courts and countless loss of our civil liberties all in the name of terrorism
Ahhhahahahaha "they destroying our way of life", cmon you big pussy, you really want to blame everything on The Tehrorists?! Tehrorism (TM) is an excuse from your government to do all the things the above lettersoup orgs do, and you and your people letting them do it.
I'll refrain quoting you founding fathers about who will destroy the US and who deserves liberty and should keep the govt in check.
The blame rests with the cowards using human shields
Says the one who's military using drones to bomb innocent people, because it's too much hassle to get your asses over there and kill them personally.
Tell you what, let's have an invading enemy, technologically far superior, with wastly more resources and soldiers, on your own territory, and then talk about bravery and tactics. If you expect them to 'come out and fight like a man', then you're a greater idiot then they are.
I have my doubts about the innocence of any of the guests at Gitmo.
So, your opinion and doubt is now enough to prison someone for life - just as well we should chop the guys head off. It's nice to see you're not one ounce better than the idiots at ISIL.
If I had my way, we'd inoculate them with ebola and send them back home.
Then why do you get so worked up when others have their way and blow up two an almost empty towers?
What could go wrong when businessmen sitting in comfortable corporate board chairs determine what wars should be fought against whom?
What could go wrong when said businessmen support heavily armed "local law enforcement" to stifle civil disorder in case the plebs disagree with above decided wars?
You know something is wrong with the system when lawyers ('necessary bad', an overhead on other people's business) on their own without actual clients.
It's like seeing accountants working for themselves - no plausible reason to be feasible.
Technically it's a condition on a government granted monopoly.
What Bayer and other companies would like to forget is that copying is an ability, not a right (and certainly not theft).
The limitation on copying is granted by the government (and ultimately by the society it represents.. no, don't laugh :D) on the premises that it'll serve society in some way (by giving the thing up into the public domain after a certain time).
Governments certainly have the right, to put further conditions on giving this monopoly, like compulsive licensing, when society decides that it is worth more than what it requires normally.
When the government constantly goes on about how people need to be afraid, how it's only by giving up their rights that the government can 'protect' them? That's a win for terrorists and terrorism.
This is literally terrorism by the government. Instilling fear for political motives (regardless of the non-foreign nature of it). Throw in the self-invented plots and red flag ops. as physical violence, and it matches the Wikipedia definition of 'Terrorism'
It's a wonder they do not get dizzy from all that spinning.
Lanes should not exist period.
An electricity company do not decide if you should use your purchased electricity to watch TV, vacuum clean ("normal lane") or use induction welders ("fast lane") as long as you pay for the electricity. The same applies to ISP: as long as you pay for x bandwidth, they do not get a say in what you're use that for.
