“Total fail: "Then more profits mean more employee pay"
No it doesn't. See the final quarter of the 20th century. Profits were sky high and wages were stagnant. If you get rid of employer based insurance then employers will pay more taxes. They currently get a tax break for offering insurance.”

“That one's easy. It's because of network effects. Network effects give a first entrant advantage in markets like operating systems. The way it works is Microsoft is first in, software makers make software for their OS, consumers want the OS that has the most software options, more consumers buy Microsoft OS, so more software makers make Microsoft OS software. Once they get this first entrant advantage, it's big trouble for any competitor to grab a foothold. And if they do.. they are bought out by Microsoft or Oracle or whoever the monopolist is.”

“These guys are the greatest asset we have as Democrats. Re-election is in the bag if this is our opposition. On the other hand death threats to the President are up 400%. Lets hope they fail at that, like they fail at everything besides destroying our government's finances and occupying foreign nations for no good reason. That sounds more like what Hitler's done than anything Obama has tried.”

“There are prolife Dems and prochoice conservatives. I know many conservatives who don't believe government should get involved in making decisions between mothers, children and their doctor. This murderer should be condemned regardless of political affiliation, but he wasn't necessarily a liberal. Anyone trying to score cheap points on this one should be ashamed of themselves. It could even turn out that this guy was a fellow Lifer and shot one of his own.”

“Please stop trying to use logic to defend what is just political expediency. IF what's in the photos is so damaging it would put our troops at risk WE MUST PROSECUTE those that ordered torture. No ifs ands or butts. Because the order of torture has resulted in American servicemen being killed and it puts them at risk now and into the future. If the crime is so bad it must be hidden, it also must be prosecuted.”

“That figure is not possible. A typical grow site in the Sierras is fed by a one-inch poly tube. That will support about 3,000 plants. The flow varies according to the supply tube length and net elevation drop but if we figure about 20 gallons per minute, that would give about 9.6 gallons per plant per day. This figure is definitely on the high side. They probably get much less. Some sites with less than two thousand plants are hand watered. These are usually tended by one or two growers. I suspect the writer of the article was told "1.5" gallons, not "15."”

“It depends on the humidity. On very dry days it naturally takes more water. They teke in water through there roots and leaves. On a humid day 75% and higher they require much less water. I use only natural fertilizers (cow and chicken manure). Never use chemical fertilizer or any insect repellant. So they don't have to effect the environment. Haven't paid for weed in years.”

“Outdoor plants apparently have thirsty and extensive root systems. I could believe 15 gallons of water per day for a large, well-tended plant at the most prolific part of the season.”
