LOL, it's a bit different down under. Around 20 years ago in my state we had a politician who was supposed to be far right who won a safe seat (poorest area in the state) that had been left wing for over 50 years, partly because the previous left wing politician was a convicted child molester. The left wing government fixed her up big time and locked her up in jail several years later but unfortunately they had to release her after 11 weeks because the state Supreme court said the charges and conviction were contrived political BS. But the left wingers weren't satisfied with just locking up a so called right wing politician so they also locked up the states Chief Magistrate and it took 12 weeks before the state Supreme court said the charge was contrived political BS. Funny thing is the state paid the Chief Magistrate a million dollars compensation but wouldn't pay the politician a cent. This was all going on just after the states left wing lawyer Premier introduced clause 8 if the Imperial Bill of Rights 1688 into our state Constitution so that no sitting politician could be impeached outside of parliament and also introduced laws so that they couldn't be impeached inside state parliament either. This was all to protect one crooked left wing politician who, after he lost his seat, was later charged and convicted for receiving 300,000 dollars in corrupt payments. Gee did the left wing politicians really look after their corrupt mate. While he was supposed to lose his multi million dollar politician payout when he finished his sentence a later left wing government forgot to do the paperwork so he got the full multi million payout minus the $300,000 he received in corrupt payments. We used to be 10 years behind the US but now we're 10 years ahead.

It still performs all of its functions without a hitch, the only noticeable thing is the LCD display is a bit fainter.

I have a 1980's Canon F-44 Scientific Calculator that still works on the original batteries.

Maybe you should open up a thread about why the US is paranoid about Iran and why it wronged them over the years? How long before operation "Liberate Iran's Oil reserves"?

Maybe the USA can force another absolute monarch on them.

Don't worry about it MigL, as soon as they conscript the ultra orthodox into the IDF and force them to kill Palestinian children they will take out the bastard themselves. Hezbollah may put the children of the Palestinians onto the altar of Baal but the IDF completes the sacrifice.

You must also consider the subtle differences between 'do unto others as others do unto you' and 'do unto others as you would have others do unto you' with respect to the future, wild west or rule of the jungle otherwise.

You can't really answer your question without first answering what is the difference between a corrupt organisation and an organisation of corrupt individuals? crony capitalism an economic system characterized by close, mutually advantageous relationships between business leaders and government officials.

Too late, while vested interests control the US what's the difference?

All the sick bastards are ill wishing Trump.

The real funny thing about the posters on this site is that there's nobody who is sick enough to ill wish Biden after he caught Covid.

What, do you think I'm taking first prize from you?

Aren't you aware of the medieval Kennedy (Cennetig) royal Irish heritage?

The best place to start looking would probably be the reports made by the people who have to put out the fires.

You could also right click on the link and choose the first option.

Just out of interest, is there anybody here who voted for Trump previously and will be voting in November, who will actually change their vote due due to this?

LOL, I've heard that 50% of any population are below average no matter what you compare them on.

While we're on ratios, from the PLANCK and WMAP data.

As someone who seems to be unaware that the media is manipulative, you are.

You tell me. In Australia the current federal government has replaced the head of the Australian Broadcasting Commission with an ex NEWSCORP boss to ensure that their journalists are impartial. Note that the channel bringing this news (below) is just as impartial as the ABC and no different from the partisanship of US media. ABC CEO

Although biased polls might possibly influence the vote of some of those who aren't too bright. If the choice were between a guarantee of 'getting into heaven' or winning an election what do you think Trumps choice would be?

That's funny, I always got the impression that those 'deplorables' who vote for Trump thought the media stole the election through its biased poll 'figures'. But then again I did read an article today that related their opinions to mass psychosis/conspiracy theories.
