  1. Self explanitory...
  2. But when you purchase an import vehicle, the money goes to that nations GDP. Granted, some of it might come back here in the form of salaries, industry, R&D. But it is still only a fraction. Also it isn't like the Big 3 are the only ones hurting. Toyota and Honda both posted losses. And they have both been bailed out by their respective governments before. Source: https://jalopnik.com/5114286/toyota-may-pos...oss-in-70-years What I think is really unfair is: That while American cars are allowed to be sold in Japan and some other Asian countries, they are given an Import tax that adds a very large cost to the vehicle. Talk about unfair. I am all for forcing parallel taxes. Japan charges an extra (lets say) 20% to buy an American car...we add a 20% tax to Japanese cars sold here. Now the public would never go for that, since that would be unfair...so why is it allowed in Japan? Hmm maybe because the Japanese industries like their monopoly. And US sheeple like their imports. Forcing our domestic automakers out of a large population where they should be allowed to sell cars. I imagine after China gets the hang on producing cars they will do the same thing, but only after expanding into our market, of course.
  3. Same book; different chapters. Oh yea and people...we tend to fuck up the most simple and well meaning of things.
  4. Congress also approved their own raise. Now the lowest making member of congress makes a lowly 170k or so.
  5. Wohoo potato pancakes!!!
  6. I vote put these guys in regular federal prison. Let good ole US of A convicts take care of it. I bet those guys wouldn't last a week.
  7. What changes would have solved that? I am guessing its the prop diameter?
  8. But it can't vary the pitch of the props enough to make up for that?

    For those of you who use USAA and are computer inclined...I have busting my head against a wall here. Every time I try to use the Deposit@Home feature now it will scan the check in gray scale. USAA wont accept it that way. I don't know what has changed, about 3 months ago everything worked fine. Same computer, same scanner/printer, same everything. I moved and reset up my computer and now it's jacked up. I reset my scanner profiles and made sure that are all on color. But still scans as gray scale. Printer is a HP PSC 2210. Anyone had this problem? Or a cure? I got the envelops to snail mail USAA checks, but it still want to see if I can fix this. Thanks!

    I've talked to alot of law enforcement officers that said they wouldn't enforce a ban. Most because they didn't believe in it, and a couple because they figured they would get killed in the process.

    Email sent. Ya that one too Boom. This was a civilian class though, so just NTSB reports. Nothing military related, except for the picture of the BONE sitting on its ass when the CG went way wrong.

    They only had a standard M1A there, no scout squads. I definitly liked it, just pricey at that store. I'll probably buy one with a composite stock from an online dealer when I decide to "pull the trigger".

    Damn... That Spit...wow! Saw and heard (more importantly) one at Oshkosh one year. Amazing!!! Oh yea, Hawk looks nice too!
  16. StoleIt replied to VL-16's topic in Squadron Bar
    I am actually going tomorrow to look at a standard Springfield M1A tomorrow. I will see if they have any of the Scout Squad's there.
  17. Okay I'll lay off on the Jailbait:
  18. Didn't know Saudi Arabia had a formidable Navy. But with all that oil money...they could probably rent the US 8th Fleet for a couple years.
  19. That sounds a lot like an episode of "Whale Watchers" or whatever. Where they flipped one of those first time they tried launching it. Hippies aren't sailors.
  20. I am really happy that uniform got canned. Look at the officer...the pocket is so high up that his ribbon rack takes up majority of the room. He barely has space for wings...let alone if he was jump qualified or had an addition badge. Then his wings would be under his epaulette. And the AF doesn't need to waste more money on stupid uniform changes, more importantly.

    Damn! Caught...I was gonna send you this if you were silly enough to pay: Figured you'd never know the difference.
