    That doesn't work in the US because of campaign contributions, politicians won't do somthing that dries up thier $$$. If it worked in the US Ken Lay would be behind bars and the victims of Enron reimbursed from LAY'S POCKET.

    Oh, you can beat me in economics but I can slaughter you in Biology.

      The Singaporean state has been in the pockets of corporations many times.

      I suck at science... give me a chem or bio lab or something, and you will have fire trucks showing at the scene.

        Or you might unleash a plauge while studying Mycobacterium turberculosis.

          I'll probably cause an explosion and end up being in the hospital for two weeks.

          No seriously, I was in Physics in 12th grade. I got a B... gah... just by luck because I studied for the final. Luckily I didn't take the IB course... the rest of my classes were in the B+/A range.

            that is so not a libertarian ideal. sounds more socialist. guarenteed success doesn't exist in libertarianism. maybe ur parents were idiots. or if u prefer, unlucky.

              My dad's brother is unlucky... his life has been tough.. he has been quite poor all his life. Never held a job for more than six months in the past. Finally a few years ago he got his act in order and got a job in geology or something like that, decent paying.

                  Two words: Iran-Contra.

                  But Carter was probably still worse.

                    Yes. Worst in the history of United States. I rated him two, but probably should've gived 3 instead, since there are worse leaders around...

                    However, my knowledge is biased towards foreign politics.

                    But Carter was probably still worse.
                    He came close.

                      I was pro-Reagan at the time, but you can't blame me. I was only a teen and it was the Cold War. USSR was only 350 km from my house.

                        We are all intelligent in our own fields, and I should of never have discriminated you for your age. You seem like a bright person. I have been thinking, can you accept the fact that I have strengths? I admit one thing here right now. I am terrible at math and science. The only math I do know is that of micro-economics but even the formulas I knew have faded from my memory. I am more acute with politics and international relations. Those are my areas of strength. That is all.
                        Sure, ok.

                          I'll give him a 4. all 4 of them for destroying the soviet union. He accomplished his goal. was that a good thing? that's a different question.

                                Don't get me started on what President Reagan refused to do during the emergence of the AIDS crisis . . . . . .
