Admittedly, I held my breath because I myself am anti-big government (to avoid labels) and believe that while yes there are untrustworthy people in a society, it also includes the government itself and I don't believe long-winded bureaucracy can solve that. I believe that's what judges are for to go on the individual case at hand. However... This is actually something that I can understand and get behind. You will get no arguments for me on these topics. But concerning this ... I'm not entirely behind because this would be something that a business could actually pay for over time. I will explain my view using a real lifes friend situation. She got the short end of a child support stick, due to written law and her situation for years and how things turned out she ends up with a bill over $50,000 USD. the way the laws are there was no choice, someone who made minimum wage under $7 USD an hour, this is one heck of a blow. Years later she is down to just over $10,000 USD. Now I would expect a company to do the same if they couldn't afford something. When I go to the bank to borrow $20,000 USD, I am at their mercy and must do everything they ask and on time if they do in fact give me this loan. So too should the company beheld this way towards the people and the government they owe the fine to, with the people and the government dictating terms. For businesses, this is rarely true. CEOs stay in place, policies only change on the surface, noone learns a lesson, as well as they raise prices on goods and services so that they can still make a large profit for their board of investors and the upper management can still make 6 digit yearly incomes. In my one example using the coal ash spill, it goes even further when the state government got involved. The people had no voice in what happened, and the government okayed a price hike for those services to pay for it without the people's consent. To me that is a form of taxation without representation. The very thing that started the Boston tea party in the USA.

Calling 911 because you got trolled in a MMPORG

Nope. TUBM will have more than the square root of this year times the number of days in June.

Oops sorry. @OrdinaryKerman *Burps and runs away*

Explains a lot. That is priceless, but it simply falls back to the same rule I have known since 1998. Just because it's online doesn't mean it's true

@Just Jim This is just one I been thinking about today...

Mean looking engineering doggo to the rescue! Just repair this here, that there... VOILA! Next version!

Granted. Now you play the same stock KSP longing for days of undersea adventures, your imagination stagnates, and you become sad and depressed and so do others who enjoy your work I wish for a little bit of light in my life.

Not on these forums. TUBM never uses emojis

Post it. Post mates. Post office.

Not even close, LoL Noone likes smoking old dogs TUBM has 600-700 rep

Banned for wielding witticism incorrectly.

I agree. One of the biggest issues for the creation of these labels is how parents allow their children to do these things because children don't know any better and parents at least in my view from what I have seen, seem to be too lazy to teach them and do not want to give them care like we (humans) used to care for children. Children must be watched at all times. I guess on the flip side of that the modern world doesn't allow for parents to watch children all the time either since it takes two people working to survive in any comfort.

I never thought to view it in terms as large as this. I actually could see this, but to me it also then removes individual responsibility. I understand modern society at the end of the day probably does need to be told what to do and what not to do but that is because in my opinion, all sense of self-responsibility has gone out the window. If we as individuals used common sense and believed that we were responsible for our own actions, then the need for big government is gone. Pipe-dream at this point I suppose. And that brings up the excellent point you made of health care. I agree, the health costs incurred should have been covered regardless of who paid. But there in lies what I believe to be another issue. The fact that we should care, at least at some level, for one another and WANT our healthcare workers paid and happy. WANT to care for others injuries. To me it makes sense we do all of this because we are a social species and we NEED one another to contribute, help, and assist others.

Mega-posty post. Posting postests withthe mostests. Post

Is this per chance anything like this? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ark:_Survival_Evolved Or maybe even something as old as this? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Habitat_(video_game)

This all day long

Point taken. It may seem as if I am defending the company but I am not. I think of myself as trying to defend common sense. So as a supposition then, does it appear to you that maybe the lawyers and judges are at fault for such exorbitant amounts of money? Had the company paid her medical bills none of this would have come to pass then? Side Note: I knew this was the correct place to bring this up, even if there are opposing views the majority on this forum speak realistically and concisely with examples and it is appreciated. This is how knowledge is gained and new ways of thinking come to light, thanks to all.
