If you keep bringing up politics, then I have to keep challenging you on it. 'People like Buffet' pay lower income tax rates because their income is generally based on capital gains. This is not the same kind of an income as that of a bus driver, for these reasons: 1) A bus driver's income is consistent from year to year. A person who lives on capital gains, does not have a stable income. Frequently, years go by when he loses money. 2) Capital gains is not indexed for inflation. So, say there is a 7.2% inflation rate. If a piece of capital is held for ten years, and if it doubles in value over those ten years, then there is no increase in wealth over the increase created from the inflation rate. Yet, if the capital is sold, then it will incur a 15% tax rate on the difference in value from the purchase price and the sale price. So, in effect, the capital will be sold for the same price as that for which it was paid, and yet the owner will still pay a 15% tax on the difference in price. This is an effective loss, for which the owner is taxed. The two forms of income cannot be compared, and yet people still want to try. Sometimes, people will say that some of the wealthiest people pay no taxes, but what they are referring to is the special case that occurs when some people actually lose money over the course of a year. The US government has never had a wealth tax, and if wealth is lost during a year, then no tax is owed. The wealthiest Americans will frequently lose wealth during bad years, and pay no income tax. This is correct and expected. Buffet does not pay lower taxes. Rather, his tax rate cannot be compared to other forms of income in an honest fashion. Craig

You say this with such hutzpah and authority as if this analogy were really appropriate. You analogy is faulty and I reject it. It does not even follow basic logical reasoning at all. Just to be clear, Income Redistribution is NOT a subset of Communism, as you claim with your analogy. NO. Income Redistribution is Communism and vice-versa.. Only those who would like to soften the horror of communism would claim so, which goes back to my original contention.

I can onl assume that those on the left don't contribute nearly as much as those on the right to your rightous just nobel cause.

This necessity is imposed by our technology, in manufacturing and farming. We will soon need much more redistribution, to nearly everyone: I've been wondering about the role of technological change and the accompanying affects on the labor market and the general welfare of society. With the apparently increasing churn in job tenure, it will no doubt be more and more difficult for many to get a solid foot in the middle class as things currently stand in a country like the US. This is not just bad for those out of work but also for society. Having people loiter around, unable to find work, or in menial positions that do not lead anywhere, does no one any good. If one accepts this premise, there seems to be a choice between a less flexible labor market, on one hand, and a stronger social safety net, on the other (or perhaps both). I don't think a less flexible labor market is the way to go in a technologically advanced society. So I find the Scandanavian approach to the safety net a very interesting one. I even take a little bit of gleeful pleasure in the fact that conservatives in the US deride this general line of thinking as European (with all due respect to the self-identified conservatives on this list). I say increasing churn, but perhaps this is mistaken, in historical terms. Eric

It's my suspicion that with ensuing advancements of technology, automation and robotics, traditional capitalism as it is currently practiced will have to evolve... perhaps radically. I personally suspect that capitalism will eventually have to incorporate a number of socialistic concepts into its fundamental core, particularly things like universal health care. Capitalism, in turn, will have to improve on many of these socialistic rights. I think most capitalistic societies will eventually come around to a realization that what used to be considered privileged benefits that only the rich and well off could afford should be perceived as universal rights that are to be bestowed on all of its citizens. Such benefits would include unemployment compensation that, if warranted, simultaneously incorporates free job re-training. Eventually, free advanced eduction should become another inevitable universal right as well. However, I think such benefits will only be possible through the continued advances of technology, automation and robotics.

A Funny thing always happens in discussions about communism and its associated philosophies, like Socialism, Social Justice, Social Security and Income Redistribution, Income Equality and the like. Advocates of such a philosphy always couch their arguments in apologetic, deceptive and covert terms to make the philosophy appeal to more people. Such is the attempt of Harry below. He attempts to call Income Redistribution as NOTHING like this. (Communism). Well, in fact, Income Redistribution is a quintessential philosophy in communism. Every day people recognize it as such, while communist advocates deny it all day long hoping their readers are gullible. Why do communists adherrents do this? The answer is simple. Communistic philosophies are so repulsive and incompatible to human nature that ALL people naturally recoil from it. The only way communism is imposed on people is thru deception and force. Has there ever been a people or country under communist rule that would not want to free itself from it. Peter Gluck is a perfect example of how free thinking people always despise communism. And his is an example of billions more. Communism is a discredited and retrograde philosophy. And its tenets are always oppressive and unfair that people normally balk from it. No free thinking person would naturally cleave to communism. Yet, we have our resident moron and lazy bum from Wisconsin wanting to implement Income Redistribution so that he may have some discretionary income. Notice what he said: a modern economy cannot flourish unless the middle class can secure sufficient discretionary income in which to purchase goods and services that in-turn are mostly created by the working class. In other words, he wants money he did not work for so that he can spend it on stuff he does not need (discretionary). I don't know about you, but I call that LAZY. Well, I have news for the LAZY bum in Wisconsin. This modern society of America HAS flourished without income redistribution. In fact, it is now floundering because lazy bums like you have this entitlement mentality that you need money for discretionary spending. Unblelievable how you can say this with a straight face and pretend you are not a communist. There is nothing more abhorent in this world than liars, communists, socialist, liberals and lazy bums. And you my friend are all of these.

This golden era of keynesian redistribution saw highest prosperity increasing economic growth in history, because almost all of the economic growth went for the middle class. And where else it could even go, if the marginal tax rate for rich was 90%? Then there came Ronald Reagan that wanted to cut the taxes of rich, and the middle class of America is now dying. 90% of americans must be really lazy as their annual incomes has not increased even for one dollar during the past 30 years!

RE: [Vo]:Designer of 3-D Printable Gun Has His 3-D Printer Seized
From David: It has long been my belief that the government uses inflation to pay off the debts that are incurred. This is a great way to take away assets from those who hold them in the form of cash equivalents. The recent actions of the FED will result in dangerous inflation so now is a good time to borrow as much as you can at low fixed rates for the longest period possible. I saw a reference that suggested that a 30 year home mortgage rate is 3.36%; what a deal. I am in agreement... However, I suspect governments have no choice left in their arsenal but to eventually print up extra greenbacks and start another uncomfortable cycle of higher-than-normal inflation. It is the only way I know how governments can rebalance their books and pay off the previous administration's predilections to instigate expensive and unnecessary wars. If the rich and powerful refuse to pay taxes, inflation is the only practical economic method left that I know of on how governments can redistribute wealth back to the needy which has been systematically sapped by the rich and powerful. The horribly bad thing about inflation is that it takes a terrible toll on individuals with fixed income incomes, like retirees and the disabled. Hopefully the government can compensate them. The rich and powerful will of course rail against such policies and point out how it will ravage the bank accounts of the poor and their meager. The rich and powerful will do their best to frighten the bejesus out of everyone especially the poor, which the Tea Party seems to be doing quite well these days. But what most of the rich and powerful are not saying, and what they are really scared about is the fact that it's their OWN damned money, their OWN power base, that they are really worried about losing. However, they are rich. They are still powerful. They can afford it. They just don't want to afford it, not if they can help it. The problem is that the poor can't afford it, unless the government compensates them. But for government to compensate the poor, the rich and powerful will have to realize the fact that it's their own wealth that is being reduced - and they won't stand for it, not if they can help it. It's a vicious cycle. Hopefully, an administration with enough guts will prevail and help redistribute the nation's wealth back to a more economically healthy levels. The current levels. the current economic distribution is horribly out of skew. BTW, home mortgages are now at all time lows: 2.75% I've personally never experienced rates this low in my life. I've heard they may stay this low for possibly another year or so. This is the time to refinance.

hello Jojo, This Guardian article answers on behalf of me to you. You will probably just ignore this article, because it does not fit on your ideology, but still I would appreciate if you would take a look at it. Things are not always as rosy as they are meant to be. It is extremely rare that the richest are hard working entrepreneurs who are creating valuable innovations out of their irreplaceable mind. *Mitt Romney and the myth of self-created millionaires* *The parasitical ultra-rich often deny the role of others in the acquisition of their wealth – and even seek to punish them for it* http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/2012/sep/24/mitt-romney-self-creation-myth No, almost all the very richests are financial speculators who are utilizing loopholes in legislation often by avoiding regulations recycling dirty money through offshore islands. Therefore they are more like criminals, because their contribution does not add value to the society, but is almost always destructive. E.g. Gina gathered huge profit from Australian housing bubble and the ones who paid her profit were common hard working Australian house owners, whom you classified as gluttonous, rebellious and lazy people. I am personally huge fan on Elon Musk, who is the living proof that single person can make the difference. However Elon is extremely rare example of the classical hero of capitalism. There are just not too many of those on the Forbes billionaire list who are also the chief designers of the best rocket ever built, i.e. Falcon 9, that is to be launched for the first commercial operation at this Sunday. I apologize about the political nature of this message, but I would guess that due to elections they should be tolerated if they are not leading into flooding the mailing list. —jouni On 3 October 2012 05:42, Jojo Jaro jth...@hotmail.com wrote: ** This idea that poverty is the root cause of criminality is at best naive and at worst moronic.

Let's take a real life example. The United States has more felons and criminals on a per capita basis than any other country in the world, including such 4th world countries like the Philippines who are poverty stricken to the core.

About 95% of the criminality is due to unjust distribution of wealth. This is not that individual humans would resort into criminality if they fail to find job due to high unemployment rates, but because children are crown in the conditions where no children should be allowed to live. Best way to eliminate poverty is to set zero income level for each individuals into 1000-2000 dollars per month. This can be done quite easily by distributing income more justly. When there is no scarcity of the basic needs, there won't be breeding grounds for violent gangs and violent larger scale religions, because every child will get a proper and free education.
Re: [Vo]:Designer of 3-D Printable Gun Has His 3-D Printer Seized
there is truths and error in boths , even moderate, vision... I've read in the next convergence a much more rational analysis of how to organize free market, social protection, regulation, protectionism, currency manipulation. one basic of that author vision is that the best way to increase wealth is big growth to catchup rich high-tech countries. It is a question of infrastructure, but also of knowledge transfer, that need a good context, education technical infrastructure, governance, but als inclusiveness, feeling of justice, leading to supporting the temporary pain of structural change. the idea of convergence is that you need to make strong structural change in permanence. no recepi of sucess work for a decade. You shoul not protect the jobs, but you have to protect the people so they can adapt to the new jobs, with education. you have not to help them to stay in the old industry, but you can protect you industry, and the people, for a short time so they can adapt and so that the new jobs are created not too late from de destructions of old jobs... the basic of good attitude is not adapt roughly, without too much ideoloy, see how is does works, correct quicly, and accept imperfection, but refuse comfort and statu-quo... redistribution is needed, to allow a feeling of justic, but inequality will increase. however unlike in locked economy, the inequalities won't be because of cast or family history, but because of luck (right time, right place, some talent, and they will be temporary... What is the enemy of economy is economic rent, monopoly, and other comfort of the dominant actors... wealth can be accepted, but it should be on the edge, and poverty should be belended and temporary... but not comportable... just temporary, motivating,and the system shoul avoid to destroy active force, and help them to update their competences. it looks quite cold blooded but it is also humanist, since it helps all a populatio to live better, even if everybody, even the rich, have his butt kicked some times. kicked, not blasted. this book is interesting.

Since Jojo is now on my filter list this moron is fortunate to avoid being subjected to most of his take on philanthropy, except that is when he is copied. Granted, I must confess the fact that I was secretly hoping to bate Jojo into responding to some of my so-called radical opinions. ... and he did. Occasionally, Jojo is very predictable. IMHO, Jojo's philosophy is better expressed within the context of following script: * LADY: Many thousands only want the common necessities of life. LADY 2: Hundreds and thousands are in want of common comfort, Sir. SCROOGE: Are there no prisons? LADIES: Oh, yes, plenty of prisons! SCROOGE: And the workhouses, have they all closed down? LADY: Oh no, they have not. I wish I could say they had. SCROOGE: I was afraid from what you said that something had occured that would stop them in their useful work. I am glad to hear it is not so. LADY: Oh, but sir, realizing that neither the prisons nor the workhouses can provide any Christian cheer to either mind or body, we are trying to raise some money to buy the poor a little meat, and drink, and means of keeping warm at this so very special time of year, they are most in need. How much shall we put you down for, Sir? SCROOGE: Nothing. LADY: Oh! Sir, you wish to remain anonymous? SCROOGE: Ladies, since you ask me what I wish...I do not make myself Merry at Christmas, and I cannot afford to make idle people merry. If they are poor, I have to support the prisons and the workhouses from my taxes. They cost enough. And those who are poor must go there. LADY 2: Well, you can't go there. Many would rather die. SCROOGE: If they would rather die, they had better do it, and reduce the surplus population.

These discussions about the rich are starting to sound like generals in WW2, prepared to fight the previous war. I have not read a single commentator talk about the future problem of being rich: first, as to stocks, the markets are highly correlated - even more so than in the '08 crash. Second, cash held has to be denominated in some nation's currency - which is a big problem since few if any of them can come close to balancing their budgets. Third, gold and silver may plunge along with everything else in a deflationary crash. In summary, if you're at the top of the pyramid, it might be well to consider the many layers that support your position above it all. Instead of the Biblical, 'every man with his own vine and fig tree', I hope we end up with free energy and Santa Claus machines for all.

You will probably just ignore this article, because it does not fit on your ideology, but still I would appreciate if you would take a look at it. Things are not always as rosy as they are meant to be. It is extremely rare that the richest are hard working entrepreneurs who are creating valuable innovations out of their irreplaceable mind.

Therefore they are more like criminals, because their contribution does not add value to the society, but is almost always destructive. E.g. Gina gathered huge profit from Australian housing bubble and the ones who paid her profit were common hard working Australian house owners, whom you classified as gluttonous, rebellious and lazy people. I am personally huge fan on Elon Musk, who is the living proof that single person can make the difference. However Elon is extremely rare example of the classical hero of capitalism.

Re: [Vo]:Designer of 3-D Printable Gun Has His 3-D Printer Seized
Some clarification is needed... Your use of the term Coherent is haphazard at best. I'd also have to say that it's 'you' who are barely coherent. I can also safely assume that you haven't made use of those two glands (called eyes) located just above your nose to either side. If in your relatively short life you had ever spent any amount of time looking up into the night sky, you would at least have an idea of what I am talking about, as to *Other* Craft up in Space that emit Light and/or reflect it. IF you had conditioned or trained your eyes to be as keen or sharp as mine, you would be able to distinguish the relative speeds altitudes of all the Air or Jet planes from *that* which operates up in space independently of our space-junk and/or debris in the many thousands, of pieces or chunks, plus, various other Countries orbiting spacecraft, space-station, satellites, etc. etc.. So, everything I've seen over the many years, along with what I'm quite confident are numerous original authentic genuine first-hand eyewitness accounts or encounters of numerous people in all walks-of-life who have seen these craft and/or its occupants, simply put, cannot be mistaken for anything other than what it is. It comes down to a relatively simple matter of our perception abilities, and what we tend to accept as normal according to our conventional standard of thinking, understanding, wisdom, so on so forth. Even-tho the people who have witnessed these craft or occupants will typically tend to be regarded by most deceptive misleading manipulative people that are unreliable, mistaken, untrained, or whathaveyou, the hard fact remains that these encounters have occurred, are occurring, and likely will occur (as required... because you know, that word gets out, and it has a direct or indirect influence in society). The subject of UFO's (as in advanced civilizations spacecraft or technology) comes down to simple matter of a *reality* that is more real and/or capable than we are able to rationalise, at this point in time. This *other* matter will require if not demand a whole complete new approach on our part as to how energy, propulsion *being* can be all integrated highly compatably into one powerfully efficient system which can operate in a whole complete highly siphisticated capacity, 'second to none'. Most assuredly, this highly developed system/process is enabling *them* to be up there, in the absolute or without fail. The fact is that whenever one, or a few of us are confronted with these vehicles and it's occupants, it can tend to frighten the you-know-what out of us, and/or have a very profound impact, which can actually have a very real effect on society that undergoes an adjustment of a sort that is barely even recognized or acknowledged in any way. So, there you have my comments (coherency included) and if you can't understand it, then I would say the trouble lies with you and/or your ability to come to terms with a far more capable enduring mode of being and/or existence that is most certainly at least several, if not 10's 100's of millions and/or billions of years ahead of us (as in, this biologically dependent human mode of being, limited or confined essentially only to this earthbound existence). And, I also need to correct some miswording in my comment that... We are *Their* bread butter (what makes the world go round) and *They* are Ours. I would have to say that this is a fact that simply will not be fully known by this civilization until we and our whole way-of-life is long-since obsolete. I think it might helps to think of it in-terms of Progress Here you go; Now just look at the amount of time that has transpired that lead up to our current human being, from all the way from the time of

Inequality is a fundamental law of Nature, all you can do socially is minor adjustments at the extremes, but it is not easy to act wisely. Hi Peter, Some personal thoughts on the matter... One of my favorite films is Dr. Zhivago. A masterpiece. I first saw the film when I was about 13 years old while we were living down in San Salvador, El Salvador. El Salvador is one of the smaller Central American countries situated north of Nicaragua. Back then, during the mid 1960s, it was estimated that 90% of the country's land was owned by 14 families. The illiteracy rate was hovering somewhere between 60% and 80%. As a young teenager, I must confess the fact my first viewing of the film... well, much of what transpired went completely over my head. Fortunately, subsequent viewings brought the harsh lessons that transpired into better focus. I realize that when some radical like me talks about redistribution of wealth, many perceive the phrase as possessing many negative connotations. It is even perceived as an evil un-godly, un-Christian act by a few conservatives of the fundamentalist sort. However, from what I could see, from what I experienced, any country that maintains a clear and horribly lopsided distribution of wealth system within its borders strikes me as a far more evil state of affairs than our often flawed and clumsy attempts at redistributing wealth. As hypocritical as it might seem for me to say this, I am not in favor of uniform redistribution of wealth. That would be impossible, particularly since equality means different things to different people. IOW, it is a highly subjective state of affairs. I am, however, in favor of more redistribution of wealth than what we currently practice within the USA. How much more redistribution of wealth is necessary, of course, a highly debatable matter. That's what our elected officials (and all of the kings subjects) will have to iron out - and no doubt with great difficulty. Nevertheless, in my view it is necessary... it is inevitable, because it strikes me as a terrible waste of a nation's limited resources (both natural and human) to live in a country where a single individual might feel it is their god given right to own at least two Cadillacs when at the same time there are too many who are scrounging to pay bus fair to get to their low-wage paying jobs flipping burgers at McDonalds or operating a cash register at WallMart.

Now please, whatever you do, DON'T try to tell me that the Great Annointed Messiah of a Wannabe Dictator is a Mathematical Genius, because he knows exactly how to con, swindle, bribe, coerce, corrupt, and threaten every gullible naive weak minded fool and/or tax payer, and ALL for the chance to watch this Countries first truly fraud fake illegal illegitimate imposter as he travels about the world on his holy fundraising tour, golfing, shopping, anti sentiment speeches that generally denounce America because it's people haven't given everything away to all the low life slime that tends infest the planet. Heres what we currently have misoccupying Our illfaded White House (illegally). BO (the monkey genius posing as a man) is King because he has been granted dominion over all Human Beings by Allah The Almighty Dallah, and/or Mahominid the greatest Virgin keeper or Molester to ever walk among animals. First, we all must remember that our great illegitimate leader while spending millions of taxpayer dollars to keep all his records sealed, while being a strong proponent for everyone that runs for the Presidency should reveal theirs (lets see, double standard apply here, or how about pure hypocracy). Now then, lets consider where BO comes from - a part of Africa close to where Mogabi The Thugly Ruler confiscated everything from the Whities and ousted them, of which all went to hell and now have to import everything(sounds promising!). Now, at about the age of 6, BO traveled to Indonesia to learn about the stoned age teachings of muzzleheaded brotherhood and shria law and/or how to partake in the destruction of the modern civilized world. Then at the age of 11 it was off to Hawai to obtain his forged birth certificate so he could infiltrate America and become friendly with some easily influenced gullible fools so he could begin on his road to success. Lets see now what exacttly we have misoccupying the Illfaded White House, an anti American who essentially despises rules regulations laws anything that a civilized truly free intelligent human being does, and/or Our way of life. Once here BO then attended (?) Law School, essentially, to use it against the people of this country. He partook in all the things that regular good old black folks do, and he also got in thick with a White terrorist named Bill Airhead (BO's idol), and Rev. Wrong, and all the more respected leders that seem to take naturally to hating this Country, (mainly (because We The People are not truly of the Animal Kingdom). Now then, BO obtained a Senator Seat (because of his lust for power) and was well on his way to weaseling his way into the Political System. He was already a great Communist, uh, rather I mean, Community Organizer and so naturally his next move was to run for the Presidency, where of course he could turn this Country into his own personal zoo. So now, we've had almost 4 wonderful years of total complete BS, and, who in their right mind wouldn't want 4 more years of it? Now, you really shouldn't even consider voting for Romney, because he simply has too much trouble with numbers, and God knows that if you have trouble with numbers, then yuo're likely not going to get away with corruption and/or as easily being corrupted, and that simply will cause BO and his gullible followers alot of problems. Now here's my solution to the problem first, austerity measures and/or reduce the amount of benefits package/pension plans for all Politicians, Government or State Employees (you know, career politicians, and/or absolute power corrupts absolutely) and do thorough background checks on terrorists seeking power and/or attempting to coerce and/or indoctrinate as many citizens of this Country as possible who will unwittingly sign-up to participate in (their demise) celebrating their independence. And BTW, whenever I inadvertently or haphazardly look at and/or hear BO, I have to force myself to remember that I should always be kind to

Nope, you confirmed that you're the Alien. Anyway, the Dinosauurs had no concept of being a Dinosaur, they just did the only thing they could, and by no fault of their own and/or an act of god, became extinct. Now, aren't you glad that you don't have worry about waking up in the morning and being chased by a pack of Velociraptors or T-Rex or all the other carnivores. Now, just think if only you had just one inkling of the remostest chance of having a clue about the future, and I would almost be willing to bet that you and many others would have done something about it while yuo could. The problem with the future of this biologically dependent human condition is that in 100 thousands years it will all but have been completely become obsolete. A real future or a more true pure trouble-free newfound mobility and/or technological based life will have begun by then, in that a real life In Space will be somewhat secure or viable. While it is quite difficult to reason or rationalise just how far back in time this human mode of being is, it nevertheless is all we can handle for the time being. The future at some point will be Mickey Mouse free, and consist-in nothing less than an absolute precise, efficient, second to none highly compatable instantaneous system, which could hardly be understood or realized by our current methods or standards. Judging by what I've seen (it's a given really, because my eyes and/or senses are significantly more acutely attuned and/or trained) it cannot be denied or disregarded that extremely highly or ungodly advanced civilizations clearly not only exist but are operating In Space. What is now become almost a joke to me is how we can only hope to point the finger at ourselves, until we and/or this severely lacking means of technology and/or mode of being has all but been replaced with something far more viable, capable, enduring A Perfected Independent Highly Complex Sophisticated State of Technological Being is currently operating this Earth and/or Star System, and likely, many similar, or not as far, or, further along, and/or all points between, thruout this galaxy and likely al the rest thruout the universe So, whether or not if you've ever bothered to look past the end of your nose to see the obvious in front of you, it's still quite unlikely you would have figured out your butt from a hole in the ground, while among the living dead. Not only has Supreme Technological Being left this ground-based restricted limited human being so very far behind and/or right where it is, but also enabling it to be, in that *They* are directly involved in every aspect facet of our being progress... such as life!. It'll help to think of it like this we're *their* bread butter, and they ares. The world us are an integral part of the ongoing process of the cycle of life, and altho we are rather hopelessly incapable and have a god awful long way to go before we can travel the stars w/o trouble or fail, we could get a jump on it and get up there sooner, rather than, maybe never... you never know what you can do, until you try! Yup, this confirms it. Stick to the alien/ancient civilizations. I prefer it muchly. Andy ;-) /HTML
Re: [Vo]:Designer of 3-D Printable Gun Has His 3-D Printer Seized
Now, how would you *know* that for sure?. I also think it's important to point out that it's more likely that its You, or Us, who are Alien. Everything that We don't know, in this vast universe, of which, is about everything there is, is Alien to Us. You need simply to forget the word Alien altogether, then and only then, will you make some real progress. We (as in human beings) live in very small world down here, and the highly advanced civilizations that are countless millions years ahead of us, can only naturally seem Alien to us. And prattling on as you call it, is all we do and/or will, until we're all long gone. I think I prefer it when you prattle on about alien civilizations. You are very slightly more coherent on that subject. I should know because I tend to use words that make me think that I am. Andy. /HTML

Romney will not increase taxes, not reduce military spending, not reduce social spending, not reduce entitlements, and, in the process, reduce the dept. Why would you vote for someone who cannot add? Smoke and mirrors never works. That's easy to do. Cancel the bonds held by the Federal reserve, received in exchange for printed money. ;) IOW simply declare the debt null and void, then print greenbacks again. Note that it's not so much the debt that is a problem, as the interest paid on the bonds. Because of this, when the Fed. came out with QE3 all they were really saying is we have decided to give ourselves billions of your dollars regularly, more of less indefinitely, while telling you that we are helping the economy. No wonder some observers have been wondering just how much good it will do. :) BTW does anyone know if bonds are redeemed when old Federal reserve notes are taken out of circulation?

Re: [Vo]:Designer of 3-D Printable Gun Has His 3-D Printer Seized
It has long been my belief that the government uses inflation to pay off the debts that are incurred. This is a great way to take away assets from those who hold them in the form of cash equivalents. The recent actions of the FED will result in dangerous inflation so now is a good time to borrow as much as you can at low fixed rates for the longest period possible. I saw a reference that suggested that a 30 year home mortgage rate is 3.36%; what a deal.

Re: [Vo]:Designer of 3-D Printable Gun Has His 3-D Printer Seized
Because there is alot more to steal, and therefore great motivation to steal it. They come here from all around the globe to try to get their hand on this Countries wealth in one way or another. I mean, look what has slimed it's way into the ill-faded White House. The way I see it is, If you don't vote for Romney, then you empower a Dictator. You might as well stick a fork is us, cause were done IF this Illegal imposter fraud is allowed to walk all over us. Now, of course, this is what we get for being generous, compassionate, thoughtful, kind, and/or too giving Give'm an inch, and they'll take a mile. A fool and their money are soon departed. And my favorite, you don't know what you got, till its gone. To me, Obama in the White House can only mean that we the true people of this country and/or any other one, have a very valueable lesson to learn about Freedom. The only thing BO actually cares about is himself, and the legitimate true people of this Country are simply to be worked played by BO's thugly band of mental midget supporters until we are walked over like a stampede of animals. Anyone oppossing him, will have to be silenced and/or eliminated. So, everyone out there who has negative anti-sentiments or pure hatred for our means of government, democracy, establishment, judicial or political system, and everything else that was keeping the animals from taking over the zoo. While crony capitalism has lead to the current crony communism now falsely occupying the IL-faded White House, *We* must view it as a serious lesson to learn from, and make sure it doean't happen again. There are many currently walking among US that would like to get their grubby mitts on everything you own and/or would enjoy seeing this Country fail or be destroyed. That way, the Dictators thruout the world can once again begin implementation of their plans to militarily controll everyone thing. Obama *IS* nothing more than an illegal, and everything he has done since illegally obtaining the Presidency, is null, void, and needs to be thrown-out, with him. No matter how many umpteen times a minute, whenever you turn on a radio, Tv, or online, and see or hear Obama being referred to as The President, he ISN'T, CAN'T and NEVER will be. IF he is, then *We* the True Free People of this Country and/or the World will be no more. So please whatever you do in the final vote count of the upcoming election... DO NOT empower this wannabe Thug Of A Dictator, because it cannot work to anyones advantage, except BOs... and that IS the Mentality which We have enabled to literally walk right in this Country and seize controll of our lives... Fools!!! Sucka's!!! and don't forget to donate to your local humane society! Please, I would like to hear your explanation why the US has more criminals than the Philippines (on a per capita basis).

Re: [Vo]:Designer of 3-D Printable Gun Has His 3-D Printer Seized
How does one measure hard work? How much harder does Bill Gates work in comparison to someone who works two jobs at minimum wage? Do you seriously he imagine he works 100 times harder if his income is 100 times greater? Do you believe a man with backhoe works 100 times harder than a man with shovel?

Re: [Vo]:Designer of 3-D Printable Gun Has His 3-D Printer Seized
This is indeed a problem. Best 3D-printers can already produce jet engine grade components, although this technology is not yet available for the public. However it will be available some time in near future. Actually jet engine companies such as Rolls-royce does pursue 3D-printing not because it is cheaper, but because it promises lighter and higher quality components for the jet engines, because the metal alloy produced is almost without structural flaws that are inherent for the traditional metal manufacturing techniques. I would think that only way to combat this problem is to eliminate poverty from the society. About 95% of the criminality is due to unjust distribution of wealth.

When there is no scarcity of the basic needs, there won't be breeding grounds for violent gangs and violent larger scale religions, because every child will get a proper and free education. Therefore weapons of mass destruction that can be 3D-printed in near future, does not posses major thread for the security of the society. If we do not have injustice, then people do not have urge to print and use weapons of mass destruction. Of course there will be always some individual lunatics, but if there is no organised violence, there should not be too much problems that we cannot handle. I really mean weapons of mass destruction. Imagine 3D-printed fully working nuclear bomb that only requires after printing to add the plutonium that is stolen from the Russia, North Korea, Iran or Libya. Of course this just extreme. Almost any weapons that can be imagined can also be printed. And better yet, 3D-printing does allow completely new designs for the weapons that we cannot yet imagine! ―Jouni Ps.
