Title: The Debate Thread
Post by: freeziez on January 26, 2011, 02:52:31 PM
Basically, this thread will be (each day) debates on different topics.

The first one is simple-

DEBATE 1:

Which phone network is better- Verizon, AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile, Boost Mobile, or any other I don't feel like mentioning?

I'm on o2, simply because their adverts contain sean bean saying the line "Every year, these ducks embark on an incredible journey".

I have no idea what my carrier's name is. It's like T-Mobile or something. And what's O2 and Orange?

I do the AT&T. Verizon has better coverage, but CDMA can't do data and voice at the same time, so **** it!

My phone is the latest in the Smartphone line.. all those countless features and apps... but no service and incorrect bills..

Im not exaggerating either.. this site was created http://www.vodafail.com/ (http://www.vodafail.com/) and they are putting together a mass courtcase against vodafone..

I never use my phone as a phone. It's essentially my mobile internet/iPod/texting device.

New Debate:

Debate 2:

During the State of the Union Address last night, Mr. Obama mentioned some possible "uncalled-for" remarks, such as,


"Meanwhile, nations like China and India realized that with some changes of their own, they could compete in this new world."

"...for all the naysayers predicting our decline, America still has the largest, most prosperous economy in the world."

and

"This is our generation’s Sputnik moment."

Discuss. Were these necessary? Should he have said them better? What were the pros and cons of his choice of words? What went wrong?

most prosperous economy my a**. Gas prices are increasing,
Taking into account inflation, gas should be well over $5 a gallon.

stupid taxes going up,
Obama renewed the temporary tax cuts Bush put in place.

job lay-offs,
It is the goal of companies to make as much money as possible. What's one easy way to do that? Run the company with as few employees as possible.

healthcare, etc.
What does healthcare have to do with having a prosperous economy?

Because we all know taxes are pure evil...

The governments income is taxes. The government is in debt. To relieve debt, the government needs more income.

True, we ALSO need to reduce spending. Which is what Obama was saying when he argued for bi-partisan solutions.
