Full Disclosure Game 1 is done.
I have emailed a copy of the press to all players involved in the game that emailed me their press. If anyone else on this site is interested in a copy of the 370 page pdf file, you can email me at [email protected] and I will send it out. I will wait 2 weeks or so to send the copies out since the players that played get first-dibs on viewing the material.

Armed bystander stops ongoing murder
Since so many shootings are getting their own threads lately, I thought I'd post on this person's life being (hopefully) saved by a concealed handgun owner.

The BASIC American Question
Are you better off today than when Obama took office ? Are you a college grad moving BACK HOME instead of into your first place because you haven't a job?

What government handouts did I get? Obamacare got implemented after I turned 26, jackass.

"When I was a kid, I had *exactly* one job before I was offered a job with insurance......when Republicans were President."

So who was hiring in 2008-2009 under Bush?

Angel....you had job offers and turned then down? You are a ducking idiot....a liberal piece of shot willing to mooch off the system because you didn't- get what you want in your FIRST job.offer. What a fucking awhile you.are. I have now lost ALL respect for you. Sad....you are too stupid and arrogant to understand this....too fucking arrogant to sweep a.floor and work your way UP tithe dream.job, right bitch? Feel free to recount my quote from months.ago In which I predicted this behavior in you, bitch.

Yes I am better off and I fully believe Obama is the best option at this point in time. I am a fiscal conservative and unequivocally think the republicans have not done much at all to help the economy but a hell of a lot to hurt it under Bush. Krellin...not sure what your point was, but it was poorly presented and your counter arguments have frankly been inane. Obama is not perfect but he's a better option than anything I've seen from the other party.

Seeing as this is not the first time you've lost all respect for me, I think I'll be OK. I didn't accept the jobs because 1) they weren't interesting and 2) I simply wouldn't be as good as someone qualified in that field. Isn't it better to leave that job for someone who wanted it?

I worked through college, so I saved enough money to go a bit longer without s job. I'm not s burden on the state or my parents, so what exactly is the problem?

Am I better off than I was four years ago?

If Obamacare holds, yes, that'd help me be able t stay on my parents' plan until 24 or 26 (I forget which) and let me hopefully go to grad school rather than need to get a full-time job with health benefits at that age (which considering the medications I need and doctors I see, yeah, it helps I don't have to foot that for another few years.)

In terms of the economy--

Couldn't get a job four years ago...got one a couple years ago and lost it...tutored now for a while (until some bitch got my professor in trouble over the whole thing, so he's got his own problems and there's my business gone) and now that's gone...

So--I've gained and lost nothing over Obama, really.

Be honest, everyone:

DO YOU think Obama/Romney would make a difference in our economy 2013-16?
(I don't, maybe a negligible difference, but I think it's forces outside their control, largely.)
If you say yes...
Please--tell me why WITHOUT bashing the other guy/party, just tel me why you think Obama/Romney can/will have a positive impact on the economy '13-16.

As such...I'm not voting on the economy, krellin.

I'm voting on the social issues and other matters of policy, and where they'd like to spend/cut spending/tax, etc., but not the economy outright.

As such...

Am I better than I was 4 years ago?

In some ways yes, in some ways no...but enough good social change has been allowed for (or would be allowed for) in Obama's vision rather than Romney's that, well, I'll vote Blue again unless Romney somehow walks on water himself.

(I will say that's a slight deterrent in itself, to be honest, not that Romney's religious--we can't have politicians that aren't in this country, it seems--but that he's a Mormon, and I really do dislike Mormonism...now, if I liked what he had to say, I'd still vote for him, and just forget the fact the man believes the Garden of Eden was in Missouri and that the Native Americans were the Jews of the Bible instead of me--WHAT?!--but as I don't like hardly any of his social policies, any of his views, he's insulted allies ALREADY, and I don't think he can fix the economy...his belief in that strongly anti-LGBT faith and allegiance to its Church is just one more reason I won't be voting for him this Fall, it seems.)
abgemacht (1076 D(G))
03 Sep 12 UTC
No I didn't. The jobs were offered to me by people I knew who have small businesses. I didn't waste their time at all.
abgemacht (1076 D(G))
03 Sep 12 UTC
Yes it is free. I pay all the copays and since my sister is still on his plan, it costs him an insignificant amount to keep me on as well. I've already checked all this before going back on their plan.

"Being on Daddy's insurance IS NOT FREE ASSHOLE"

...Oh, krellin's going to hate my post...

It isn't, krellin, I agree--but I can't pay for it AND go to grad school.

Not all of us are as rich as Mitt, after all...

Hopefully, when I have a good lawyer or political or professorial job, I'll be able to pay my Dad back for not just those few extra years of health insurance, but, you know, the rest of my life he's helped fund.

But first--gotta go to school, and for that, I need to be able to AFFORD IT without choosing between Classes or Seizure Medication.

Angel - ADULTS thRu are selfrelianttake jobs outside their ideal ALL THE TIME. It is about being self.reliant and working towards a goal, not demanding perfection from the start.

You are not.qualified.do Michigan.anything, moron...you're a college grad with NO real.world experience! Despite liberals telling you how special you are, you ARE NOT.

"It is about being self.reliant and working towards a goal, not demanding perfection from the start."

Didn't you just attack me for having jobs with no insurance? And now you attack abgemacht for waiting for better offers? What alcohol do you drink that makes you this incoherent and enraged 24/7?
abgemacht (1076 D(G))
03 Sep 12 UTC
Actually I have a lot of experience. I've taken 3 internships and I worked in grad school. I've presented my work at conferences and I'm published. My work has directly impacted the field I plan to work in. I'm sorry you think anyone who doesn't work at Company Inc doesn't contribute to society.

There INTERNSHIPS!!!!! Oh my!!!!! Abge is SO smart....nobody has.ever had an internship!!! He is ready to be CEO!! Abge, you are so smart!!!
abgemacht (1076 D(G))
03 Sep 12 UTC
Um...I never said I want to be CEO. I said I want a job in my field. I studied for 2 years to work with semiconductors; I dont sent to take a job doing architecture. I'm not good at it and it isn't fun.
krellin (80 DX)
03 Sep 12 UTC
Angel, I had internships too. Then I graduated and got a REAL job. Internshipsare.jokes, abge hats why they are "real" projects turned over.to college pukes. My internships had meaning, to _ evaluated and contained warranty costs and safety issues. Very important stuff...and easy enough for an engineering intern, you arrogant asshole.
krellin (80 DX)
03 Sep 12 UTC
Angel....real men take a job when offered, and then work to find a better job. Liberal birches.live with mommy and systems mooch off government and.parents.until they get what they want. You are.a.spoiled.little bitch.
abgemacht (1076 D(G))
03 Sep 12 UTC
Krellin, do you realize that our conversations are always the same:
1) I say something
2). You ignore what I say, claim I said something else, and get angry at me

I didn't say I changed the world with my internships, I just said I had them
abgemacht (1076 D(G))
03 Sep 12 UTC
Again, I don't live with my parents, nor do I mooch of the government.

Why should I take a job I know I can't do as well as someone else when other people need the jobs? How does it help the company to accept a job and then immediately start looking for something else?

"*Blank* Fundamentalism," "The Media," and Other Double Standards
When it's MSNBC/CNN/the BBC/ABC, etc, it's "The Media," always "out to get" the Right and praise the Left--but then, when it's FOX, it's "Fair and Balanced."
When it's "Atheist Fundamentalism" (someone who holds this view, please, tell me what you mean by it) it's to be stopped--but make them Christian Fundamentalists, and suddenly, apologists crop up everywhere...why the double standard?
