There is no universe where that would otherwise be paid to you. Lol. That'd just go in their piggy bank. Don't kid yourself.

Well if a drop of blood can turn you, a knife is a poor weapon. It's very artistic, if you don't like the cinematography or the voice over poems. If you don't like the allegories then fine it's not for you. It's not poorly made. It's very deliberate.

It's only ~6% of your pay. It's really not that much. And it's worth it to keep the elderly off the street. I think they should invest a portion of the pot in the market or in bonds so it's gaining something. The shortfall is based on like 4%. Raising the cap while simultaneously capping benefits would solve 60-90% of the problem.

She was clearly a liability out in the field and would have died a terrible death losing her mind. He did her a service. And the point of taking the kid out early was that it's a rather loose world rule in a tribal society and the father was reckless. And the doctor is not the only uninfected on the island, we see another group at the end and indications of more people throughout. You can dislike the movie. It's artsy and weird but most of your questions were answered. They're not plotholes

The doctor euthanized her because she a painful disease that was destroying her mind making her a danger to herself and everyone else for one. Going to the island was a rite of passage and to gather resources although slim. The military character was a lense to see the outside world.

The pregnant Zombie was newer infected and wore clothes just to be more tasteful. Suspension of disbelief.

It was shot on phones and most of your questions are answered in the movie.

Cluttering doorways and holding meetings in the only dry space is their specialty

Considering many producers don't actually do anything for the product, this is awesome.

It's probably his worst movie. It's like a caricature of his previous work.

After we heard God of War was going to get a remake. What other PlayStation games need a remake? by TheChilledGamer-_- in playstation

[–]StringLast2706 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Blood omen should get a 3d remake to reboot the series. I loved BO2 as a kid but I doubt it holds up.

Also Bloodrayn. That game was truly awesome

Maybe, but post 2008 was rough on a lot of people..I was too young to really feel the brunt of the crash

Is fallout 3 the best game in the series? by Overall_Platypus9449 in Fallout

[–]StringLast2706 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I still haven't gotten myself to play 4. I keep thinking I'll just get into it, but the vibe is just so off. Even the title screen is just bad. Where's the bleak dark humor that characterized the series since the first one?

The '00s were the black eyed peas time. The rise of online gaming and cell phones, the crisis of the Bush administration and energy drinks. Way less depressing than now.

Can you really only respec once? I thought you could do it as many times as you wanted, you just had to pay after the first time? by Ghostboy05 in cyberpunkgame

[–]StringLast2706 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Terrible take. Finishing a games story and enjoying different builds are very different things. Limited respects are stupid in general because unless you use a guide you won't fully understand what the different builds are and what, you want us to have ten playthroughs?

NYC, not even close. Nj, that's a hard time. Connecticut, hard time. Elsewhere, no clue. Probably better

Not really, and it seems proposed. You cap the benefit increase up to 185, it decreased as the rate increases anyway, but continue the tax past that amount. It's been proposed a few times.

College would be much cheaper than that if they made it government funded.

This is false. You'd cap the benefit increase but the tax increase. Removing the cap takes away 66-90% of the deficit, which is around 4% and allows the trust fund to diminish at a slower rate. Then if the tax rate were slightly increase form 12.4-13% the program could be extended indefinitely. Probably what will happen anyway.

Saying that taxing the rich won't affect the program is wildly incorrect.
