    So get this /tg/

    A few weeks back me and a few friends were at the block of orange in california playing a big team game of 40k at the games workshop there.

    Our friend jon was playing his nurgle and about a couple turns in a couple of guys came into the store(who we found out later were plain clothed cops), pulled him aside, and then after a few minutes of talking they took off and we didn't see him again. We decided to pack up the game after that, we put his stuff away in his case and left it under the table.
    >> !3GqYIJ3Obs 05/26/09(Tue)00:03 No.4663103
    The next day when we went to the store all of his stuff was gone from inside of the store. And his car was no longer in the parking lot. The staff claimed to know nothing about anything that happend.

    Well after a few weeks of not seeing jon, I decided to look him up on google. And my result was this page.

    Allegedly our friend jon had strangled his girlfriend to death, slept on it, and then went to games-workshop in the morning for a game of 40k.

    This is not a troll post, or anything else. Simply one 40k player saying goodbye to a member of the community.

    He was a good nurgle player. And shall be missed

    Well, since he was your friend, I would say that it would've been safer to take his army home with you to give back to him later, rather than just leaving it in the store. As it turned out, you probably could've ended up keeping the army that way.

    He was building a emperors children army, he used a lot of greenstuff on his nurgle to make them look plaguey, he was sculpting 6pack abs on all of the emperors children.

    I still have some of his stuff, but he still has some of mine. He was in debt for the while before he was taken away so he was selling off his armies for pretty cheap.

    If we did this then that'd raise the question of banning Satanic imagery from movies, art, literature, and anything else protected by the first amendment of the US constitution. But the thing is. Games Workshop is based in England which do NOT have to abide by American decree. Though they do not have the 1st amendment as we do to protect them from this sort of thing. I think that is satanic imagery should be banned in games then it should be banned from the fucking bible too. as that's the most influential work of fiction on the market today. /rant

    No, it implies that right-wing extremists want people with combat experience, and that of the millions of people who have served in the military, they can probably find one or two that are sympathetic to their cause, and a good way to ferret out people who want to be domestic terrorists would be to watch for groups that are approaching veterans.

    Well the article only says he's accused, and that he hasn't even been arraigned yet. Fuck, maybe the girlfriend was cheating on him and the other guy killed her, I dunno.

    It just seems weird to me that an obviously guilty person would just go with the police instead of trying to run or at least die a free man. It wasn't even like they had him surrounded, it was a couple of officers who came down to the store. He probably could have made it to his car and at least taken them on a nice high-speed chase before slamming his car into a concrete wall.

    The ratio I heard was that about one-third are functionally or truly illiterate, another third only read by necessity (street signs, bills, etc), and the final third are "easily" literate. Of that final third, only a third of THEM read for leisure or have much skill at interpretation. Semantics, for example.

    The report was commissioned by the Bush administration, and is apparently on a regular schedule. The DHS and intel agencies redo these threat analyses constantly, but only chunk out a "press friendly" report when requested.

    The statement was really a no-brainer, too. Of COURSE extremists want to recruit military experience. DUH!

    The report on left-wing groups within the US didn't include similar warnings, despite being prepared and released during the Bush Administration. Why? Political considerations, or because the American Left *at the moment* doesn't tend towards bomb-throwing? Better informed pundits than 4chan have and will go around in circles on that one, so I'm not going to bother...

    "Wait, Communists?" I hear you ask. "What about China?"

    China has fingers all over, but calling them "Leftists" is a stretch. China is that way because that's what China does. It isn't recent, nor specific to the Mao Dynasty.

    Now, on one hand it could just be that you're one of those people who keep hearing bullshit about Palin and then repeating it whether it's true or not because you're an ass. However, it's possible that you're just mistaken here. See, the position of the GoP and most conservatives is, to grab a quote from that same article, "abstinence until marriage is the only safe way to avoid pregnancy and disease" and it is, if you look at it from a 100% guarantee point of view. The only way to avoid pregnancy and STIs with a 100% success rate is to not have sex.

    The problem, of course, is that not everybody is going to stick to abstinence. Due to this, kids need to learn about contaceptives. Palin supports this position. You seem to be confusing the position of "abstinence is the only 100% effective way of preventing pregnancy" as "abstinence is the only way of preventing pregnancy that should be taught in schools" which is not her position.

    >In recent years, parental support for real abstinence education has grown. Because of this, many traditional safe-sex programs now take to calling themselves "abstinence plus" or "abstinence-based" education. In reality, there is little abstinence training in "abstinence-based" education. Instead, these programs are thinly disguised efforts to promote condom use. The actual content of most "abstinence plus" curricula would be alarming to most parents. For example, such programs typically have condom use exercises in which middle school students practice unrolling condoms on cucumbers or dildoes.

    okay- so while being pro-contraception Palin is still staunchly supported by the very same organizations that make statements like these? 'kay sure, whhhhynot?

    It's a wonder why some perfectly logical people stumble on their own feet to try to defend an indefensible position- even if SP had, at one point, been a vocal advocate of contraceptive education in schools since the aug. 2008 nomination to GOP VP she has since veered right to pander to the same people that have support the above statement.

    It's not like she was buying votes though. It's policy to give proceeds from Alaskan oil to Alaskans. It's just one of their State things.

    But, in any case, here's the deal. To achieve social/class advancement you need money. The goal of a good government is to try and get as many people moving up as you can. So you try and get people off welfare, you expand the middle class and you try and turn the middle class into the wealthy.

    The two primary ways that people will do this is by investing in shares or creating a business. Impediments to this are the capital gains tax and property taxes. If property taxes are the main source of your government's revenue, they're liable to quite high and this WILL kill off small businesses.

    Small businesses are one of the largest providers of jobs in America. In small towns, this is even more pronounced. By lowering property taxes you enable more small businesses to survive and grow and encourage other people to create businesses as well. By doing this you can grow your town's economy.

    The government still needs revenue for roads, school, welfare and such, however. So, the taxes need to be applied somewhere else. Sales tax is good for this because it's distributed across your entire consumer base, which isn't just limited to your town's population meaning you can tax tourists and travellers. And sales tax is more of a nickle and dime system, it's small amounts of money by a lot of people over a decent period of time, so it isn't crippling. In addition, land owners and the wealthy will still be paying taxes because they will still need to be purchasing things.

    Economically, it just makes sense to me. Can you elaborate on your objections to it a little more for me?

    You're fucking retarded if you think that sales tax effects the rich and the poor equally.

    In a way, it does, in that everyone pays the same rate of sales tax on purchases. In another, more significant way, you're taking a much larger percentage of the incomes of the poor in taxes than you are from the rich.

    How much more a week do you think someone who makes $500,000 a year spends on groceries than someone who makes $25,000? The answer is not too fucking much.

    How much more per year does someone who makes 500K a year pay in property taxes than someone who makes 25K? The answer is "a lot."

    The net effect is you lower the tax burden on businesses and the upper class by increasing the tax burden on the lower class. This, by the by, also applies to "fair tax" Huckabee and other equally retarded people are always talking about.

    So, what you're saying is that it's not fair if everybody is paying the same amount of tax?

    I know it sounds nice and pretty to say "they have more, they should pay more" but this kind of philosophy will tax yourself into stagnation and ruin. Especially considering that the wealthy are already paying more in the form of income tax.

    Businesses with more money can afford to expand and hire more workers. This lowers your unemployment rate which gets people off welfare which lowers your government expenditure. This enables the government to then holistically lower taxes, or have more money to spend on infrastructure or education.

    You seem to be implying that Palin is some kind of monster for doing this, but if people were hurting and starving in the street she'd not have had such high approval ratings.

    You're right. Everyone should pay the same amount of taxes. Let's say $5000 a year. No matter what your income is. That's fair, right? Because everyone pays the same amount, and those that have more don't have to pay more.

    You sure are a classy fellow but I doubt you're even reading what I'm writing.

    The wealthy are already paying more than the non-wealthy, I made a point of this. I have no particular opinion for or against it. You seem to be a proponent of some kind of Robin Hood stick it to the rich mentality but property taxes aren't sticking it to the rich. The rich can easily pay their property taxes. Small businesses, however, cannot. Their ability to operate and grow will be slowed and their ability to survive will be threatened. This will harm your economy.

    In Palin's second term the people of Wasilla voted for an increase of the sale tax by .5% for the construction of a sports center. If this was such a grave injustice and such a threat to their lives, why did they vote for it?

    Honestly, I don't think you give a shit about the people of Wasilla and if the economic models they used worked or not. I think your objection here is that someone, somewhere did something that you are opposed to ideologically and damned if it worked or not.

    In addition, you have been needlessly aggressive. Instead of a calm, rational discussion you've just thrown down insults and emotion instead of polite, clearly laid out assertions of what you believe and why.

    Is there a reason that you're displaying such hostility?

    It depends on how deeply in debt the government is and what the state of the economy is like. I know you said you wouldn't agree with me, and that's cool, but I'm going to make my case and I'd like to hear your thoughts on it anyway.

    If you cut taxes people have more money in their pockets to spend and businesses have more money to hire people with. This is good because it works perpetually instead of being a one shot and it doesn't require any real government work so the chance of corruption and government fuck ups goes down. The best way to stimulate an economy is to cut taxes.

    Now, if your economy is damaged then you need to fix it. The Keynsian approach is to defecit spend on infrastructure to jump start the economy by getting the unemployed and giving them a source of income which will help the economy. Once the economy has been restored to a good working order they can be transitioned back into permanent work.

    So, if your economy is in the shit you do need to spend some cash. But one of the worst things you can do is to prop up failing businesses without reforming them because while you are saving people jobs you're just delaying future economic problems at a huge price. So that when shit hits the fan again in six to twenty-four months time, you're in the same position you were before, but now you're broke.

    You know why I'm hostile? we've had 30 years of "Tax cuts are the answer to everything" trickle-down voodoo economics that have lead us to the recession we're in today, and people are still running around going "herpadurp lower taxes."

    Trickle-down economics assumes that if you cut taxes on big business, they will use it to hire staff and expand. In the real world, they pay dividends to shareholders, the majority of shares being held by people who are already rich. And then we cut the capital gains tax on the dividends.

    And small businesses are a great thing to hide behind. "You can't raise the minimum wage, not paying workers enough money to live on is how small businesses stay open" "You can't raise taxes on individuals makes $250K a year, they could be small business owners."

    Every time the right wants to give a little more money to the rich, it's for small businesses. Which is bullshit. Almost every town in america already gives tax incentives to businesses, most of them quite substantial.

    That's it, it's the same voodoo economics bullshit Reagan and Thatcher were throwing around. And Keynsian economics was never the issue. It's supply-side economics, which is complete and total bullshit.

    The current economic problems don't have their foundations in Reaganomic, though. It comes from large businesses with unsustainable business models on the verge of bankruptcy, unwise lending by banks and acquisition and trading of debt as a commodity.

    Of the woes that can be placed at the feet of Reaganomics, this isn't one of them.

    I'm also not arguing against raising the minimum wage or for tax cuts for the wealthy only. In regards to minimum wage, you need to ensure that your consumer base has a spendable income to grow your economy. The more money that people have available to them the better off things are. I'm fine with the minimum wage being raised but you understand this has repurcussions, right? Once you raise the minimum wage the business owner will need to raise product prices to pay for it. If this happens holistically across every industry, then awesome your wage has increased, but it doesn't mean jackshit because coupled with the increased price of goods and services your purchasing power is the same as it was before.

    I don't like seeing people scraping by any more than you do but the problem isn't as easy as just raising wages. The solution is to live frugally, save money, get educated if you've not already, and get into an industry that isn't paying you minimum wage and once you're there, don't live beyond means while concurrently investing.

    To hark back to an earlier point though. If you want to increase people's standard of living and raising the minimum wage won't do that, how do you ensure that they have more money in their pockets?

    If you want a hint, it rhymes with Butt Faxes.
