Heh, hate to break it to you, but even what you have there contradicts itself. For instance, chocolate is good? Good is subjective, what may be good to you can not be good to someone else, or if you bring in all the other factors, such as how bad chocolate is without other things added, then people could disagree entirely with your statement.
A lot of that is good though. I'll comment on it some more later. |

Let it first be known that I hate MACs. Now let me say that yes it was a good idea, from a business standpoint. I would have done it, and so would most other good businesses.
But I still hate macs, too simple, too many apples, too few games. |

Read the rest of my post. Perhaps not too many, but msot definitaly too many people that don't know what they're voting for. For them it's like seeing a collection of snakes, they can pick one up, or they can not. Assume for the scenario and sake of discussion that they know nothing about how to identify poisonous snakes. If they are smart, they'll leave them all alone. But if they choose to pick one up, it could be poisonous, or it could not be. These guys are picking up snakes when they vote. Then there are the intelligent people, who can pick up whatever snake they want without getting killed, because they know what snakes are poisonous.
The intelligent people are quite clearly those who know what they're voting for, the people who pick up snakes without know what they are are those who vote without knowing about who they vote for. And Logos, other than why I'm chosing knowledge as an ideal, what did I not adress in your post? Why knowledge is an ideal I think is adressed in my above paragraphs. Simply put, for them to vote is them picking up a poisonous snake. |

I really hate to put an end to that train of thought, but getting into ollege isn't that expensive.
Take my brother. He got a summer job, worked every day for several hours, and paid for college for the next semester, while adding funding to domething more expensive which I don't feel like going into. So, if someone can get two college terms in one summer, or perhaps being more fair just one college term in a summer, they can go to college. Just work for a few years, you'll have funding, and go get your major. But that's not really the topic at hand, I honestly think that the benefits in the military make it a perfectly decent job to go into, if you really want to. the reason a lot of people chose other carreer options is not because they're rich with more opportunities, it's so that they don't get shot in their carreer. Yes, I did make an ad hominem mistake Logos, appeal to fear if I'm not mistaken. |

Logos, I think that you don't understand me. All I'm saying is that if they vote, all they have to know is what they are voting for. Allow me to say this again, they must, if they follow my idea, must know what they are voting for.
The line is, as I said, 80% of about, say, twenty questions. The questions will ask about tax plans, plans for the current war(if one is going on), policy on more sensitive topics like abortion or same sex marriage, and various things like that. Look at the snake example to see why. Think metaphorically, and tell me why those people should pick up a nsake if they know nothing about it. |

No, that's just one ad hominem attack. Abusive to be more precise. I, like you and everyone else, know what these things are.
Anyone, college isn't the main subject, so I'll move on. I find that from a moral prespective it is bad. However, many people have different ideas about morals, so its hard to debate whether or not it is moral to force someone to join the army. But from a political prespective, whoever succeeds in getting the bill passed, is going to have destroyed his carreer. Most americans don't want the draft reinstated. |

"heh, how fitting" Desin said. "I think that before we start anything, yuo should be aware that these bombs are fitted with many types of traps, including pressure sensors if you even try to move it, and some non electronic ways to spring it if you don't cooperate. You see, as the moment, we have fitted it so that ectricity is the only reason it hasn't detonated. We also have heat detectors in case anything touches it, tuned to the one thousandth degree, and of course, some of our agents are watching over each bomb.
"Now that that's settled, there ware some terms I want discussed. You are of course to surrender all Marinae property to the E'shyum. Doing so will have us pay you a large sum, and give you the property and support to live very comfortably for the rest of your life, along with ten of any of your associates, all of whom would require a personal interview given by me or one of my associates. "Second, I want all of your shards handed over and registered under the E'shyum papers. Any of your soldiers will be allowed to retire, though it will be highly advised for them to transfer over to our military. We will place them in their own platoons so that prejudice does not spread. "Thirdly, dinner would be nice, it was a long flight, and I'm somewhat hungry. Any poison or something to knock me out would of course detonate all of the nuclear bombs." |

Brad removed his glothes, put them on his lap, and took a bite of the steak. A bit well done for his taste, but it was fine.
"Sadly, you aren't that lucky." He said, "we simply noted that this war was getting tiresome. If you did not exist't he chances of us allying with the Suvoj would greatly increase. In other words, if you ceased to exist, there would be peace. Granted, we can hardly ally with you, and even if we would, you would be unwilling to listen to our terms. "We have no actual hostilities towards you or your people, and in fact if you met the standards, then this world would all be one happy place. However, you do not, and so we are going to bring you under the E'shyum banner. What would you say? Is this war finally ready to be over? Are you finally ready to stop waring with us and to live out the rest of your life with what you have earned? Or are you too overcome with a lust for power and glory?" |

People may take that class in high school, but they can easily forget it. Like me with chemistry, I forgot some of it when I took it last year.
Second, the snake is a valid arguement. I think that unless you can combat it, then I already won this arguement. Give one reason why that person should pick up the snakes if he has no idea about it, and assuming there are no other factors involved. My definition of knowledge is how much you knwo this empirical data. You would be tested on how much empirical data you have stored in your brain. Combat the snakes or I'm going to stop replying to your posts. |

ooc: If your men find any bombs, post as they do it, I have a few suprises for the bombs which I'd rather play out.

IC: "Yes, I am aware," Brad said. "And as it happens, we are hardly foreign forces. Your people would be run much the same way they are now, with lower taxes, less forced military involvement, and an increase in technological funding. I am tired of this war, I am sick of fighting day after day as you continue this tiresome crusade. "And don't even try using morals to justify your actions. All of the moral people have joined either the E'shyum or the Suvoj. Your people are those who lack morality, lack human decency, or were forced into serving you simply because that's where their land was. You were not rightfully chosen. But, perhaps you could have them vote. Get nuked, or go under our control." He took another bite of steak, and then tried the broccoli. "You do of course realize that we only have two hours to complete these negotiations before I destroy another city, correct?" (Last edited by Vulkar on 12-07-06 11:16 PM) (restricted) |

"Well," Brad said, "perhaps you can assist us. I told him that we will detonate the nukes unless he turns over his property to us. As a result, he and several other people will be given enough money to last the rest of their lives in a good enviroment, and will be allowed to live the rest of their lives in comfort. His soldiers would not be forced to fight in our army, but if they choose to serve, they will be placed int ehir own battalion, payment will increase by twenty five percent, and they will have have the funding for a full education when they want to retire.

"You being a third party, I must ask, would you choose to live a very comfortable life, or would you choose to be responsible for the death of millions of civillians?"

"Desin, Brad Desin." he said, "and the amount of deaths saved will far outnumbed the amount lost. You see, I doubt that any more than one bomb will actually need to be detonated, and that wouldn't even come out in the millions. If the Marinae actually listen to me, there will be no casulties, this war will be over, and we will at last have peace, at least in this portion of the world. I think that is would serve the people's interests greatly to listen to us, even if we didn't have the bombs."
|
He took another bit of steak, and put some hot sauce on his plate. "You can hardly call us immoral for wanting peace, can you? Especially when we would be saving numerous lives."

Harry responded to Holly first. "I do not plan to force anyone. Our leaders are elected, beliefs are not enforced, and there are many other good things. Jack himself palns to retire when the war is over." He paused as Alden spoke. his opinion on negotiating.
|
"You are a fool Alden." He said, "I have recorded every word you've said so far, and I think that this would be good to broadcast to all of your people. Your pride takes over what little intelligence exists in your brain, and as such, you could have doomed your people. I think that I don't even need to kill everyone, or anyone now that you've said that." He turned towards the door and paused, "Holly, this place is going to be sent up in flames once I'm clear, since you are not associated with any of us, our men are willing to give you a ride to wherever you want. He glanced at Alden, "Unless the fool would like to reconsider?"

"I've put plenty of thought into that." Brad said, "but if the only other solution is to fight again and again and again, killing more people than in this place, then I consider it worth it. Most of the people here aren't even civillians.
|
"If he will open up negotiations, I won't destroy anything. I don't impose on my hosts, so unless he wants to stay and discuss it, this is pointless." He looked at Alden. "I'd listen to her, even if you leave, destroying this place would tear your people apart, destroy the Marinae. I think that I've already won, not with the land I wanted, but I most certainly had victory. I'll give you until I am out of range to reonsider, Alden."

"Now I'm going to have to ask about education." Vulkar said, "I honestly have no idea if you are going to college yet or not, but if you are, tell us what you're taking, why you're taking it, and what your overalll degree is going to be in. If you're in highschool, tell us the same things, except in future tense." |

"Perhaps you should direct your attention to that man." Brad waved to Alden, "I have offered him a way to end this war to the satisfaction of all, and and throws it away. If I could, this war would be over. Were Alden a moral man, the E'shyum would merge under him. But alas, he concentrated on war. He cannot be trusted to take over without hurting this world."
|
He looked at Alden. "This war was created by you, every signle death will be on your hands. We used to try to negotiate with you, the only reason this did not end in my death I imgaine is because then everyone would be dead." He looked back at Holly, "if you can make him listen to reason, please do so, otherwise I shall take my leave." |
