“but mommy, she called me stupid first!!”

100%

I think you’re confusing the definition of leftist sheep and liberal.

Firstly, thanks for your respectful reply.

I am not the president, nor am I an expert on the finer elements of government regulation as it relates to manufacturing. However, as an engineer, I work tightly with US based manufacturers (and some Chinese), and I know a bit about the process. Here are my thoughts.

Firstly,…

Actually I am a liberal open to new ideas.

I don’t support name-calling no matter where it comes from. But do you, and Kate Knibbs, really want to stoop down to that (or his) level?

Why? The robots need to be built, maintained, and controlled. Those are jobs for Americans. Furthermore, the factory owners are American, the factories are here, and the economics of manufacturing stays fully domestic. If I need something made, I would much rather drive an hour to a local plant, speak to a fellow…

There are alternatives to subjecting foreign workers to unsafe and low-paid work conditions:

Every manufacturing operation we give to china is an opportunity for them to improve their process and lower their costs. They have a monopoly on manufacturing and they enjoy all of the benefits that come with it.

Yes, lets dismiss something that we do not understand, having clearly done no research, without offering any explanation. That sounds pretty reasonable.

Personally, I’m doubtful that it has a sexual connotation (what a testament to how lewd we are!).

I clearly see that you’re a reasonable person who doesn’t fall into judgment, stereotypes, or prejudice often

Actually, this technology was present during the brutal 1650’s Carpathian destruction of various Romanian hamlets, although they used the blood of slaughtered children instead of creamy milk chocolate.

Another kneejerk reaction to Eugenics from Gizmodo...nothing new to see here

I agree. People have it hard enough as it is in their daily lives, and so often a person underestimates how a few casual words can have a negative impact on others. Hope you have a very happy New Year!

Sorry, perhaps I didn’t word that properly as I had no intention of calling you a snob personally, moreso the people who are openly critical of anyone who uses the modern alternative.

I bought into the turntable nostalgia having purchased one myself, and realized pretty quickly that it’s firmly in the same genre as craft beers, bean to bar chocolate, and anything else that maintains it’s popularity due to a vocal minority of snobs who express disdain for our modern, industrialized, “flavorless”…

I would definitely mount this 12 feet up on a very high wall. I think it elevates the art form when you have to go to the shed, get a ladder, position the ladder, climb to the top, and touch the wall in order to know what time it is.

I’m with you. If Hershey’s wasn’t in cahoots with the ADA we might have an edible product

Now you’ve crossed the line, buddy. Prepare to feel my cheesy wrath (wrap?)
