I love the idea of making field-moves be natural traits for Pokemon based on species.

Just because a person describes themselves as a libertarian doesn't mean that they can't like other ideas as well. I'm allowed to like the idea of a fair meritocracy with regards to the education system, and I am allowed to do so while still considering myself to generally libertarian. Pragmatic application of any…
You're right. Big business doesn't want one. Because it'd be more fair than the current system we have in place.
Where do you live where the majority of people can afford college? The majority of people don't even go to college at all.
Meh. There are crazy people in any group. I just don't think it's fair to let the crazies taint the image of the group at-large, at least when there is so much to agree with in the ideology. Basically everyone holds at least some libertarian ideals, especially when we're talking about young people.
The government made it happen, but they made it happen by enabling the private industry to do the right thing and provide a fair wage for their employees without the government directly being the agent of change. The People get their fair wage, whatever that might be, rather than having the State [try to] do it [and…
Ok, well I'm libertarian. Do you disagree that effective, good unions could do a better job of getting fair wages for workers than the government?
Yeah, well, you're overlooking that a LOT of people in the US decide against college/university not because they don't want it or can't handle that level of academia, but because they cannot afford it. Most people just cannot afford college. Full stop. That's just all there is to it. Many people skip post-secondary…
I don't even see how unions are themselves considered anti-capitalistic. If they can spring up in a free market (and they can), then I'd say they're an integral option for social change in a capitalistic economy.
Why the vitriol against libertarians in particular, especially when the article never even mentions it? Allowing the free market to develop its own unions that could establish fair wages makes more sense to me than counting on the clueless government to create and enforce minimum wage laws. The article says that…
They've touched on this a few times. Beauty and the Beast, Hunchback of Notre Dame, Lilo and Stitch. An argument could be made that a lot of Disney movies acknowledge that beauty is not always good and that good is not always beautiful.
I had never considered that reading of Lilo. I love that movie and I like your interpretation of it.
It's universal, but it always amounts for a small subset of the population. For example, there are far more Hispanic people than there are people with Down's syndrome. It's also a lot easier to hit the mark of ethnic diversity without being offensive.
Yeah, that movie has a lot of really awful morals. They were aiming for "Follow your dreams!" and ended up with stuff like "Change yourself for your man!" and "You don't need to talk to attract a man!" and "It doesn't matter if she won't say a word, go on and kiss that girl!"
I could see a blind princess making for a compelling story. Not so much on the other things.
I agree completely, but with one caveat. I can't see Disney putting a princess in a wheel chair. If they're going a physical disability, I think they'd be more likely to go with something that makes her more bad-ass rather than more helpless. Like Hiccup's leg in How to Train Your Dragon or the Fullmetal Alchemist's…
WAHWAHWAHWAHWAH BOO HOO
I think that's kind of irrelevant in this era of online gaming, isn't it? Just trade online.
Regular milk actually is sweet. It doesn't have added sweetness, but it is sweet. Almond milk needs added sweetness to be as sweet.
I've found the different brands vary wildly.
