[quote who="Lord Xia" reply="8" id="3327540"] I wish I hadn't bought it. I should have known better, shit, I did know better. [/quote] Ouch, I'm sorry to hear that i was quite disappointed when i found out that the game was a wreck. While Tropico 4 doesnt replace sim city with all the DLC it's pretty fun.

The problem is that minimum wage hasn't been ADJUSTED to inflation. There are millions of Americans living BELOW the poverty line. Some of these individuals would love to go to school but cant afford to do so because of children and/or other reasons. We need to educate our population and ADJUSTING the minimum wage will help us in this endeavor. The problem is the minimum wage hurts smaller businesses i believe the minimum wage should be adju

One of the reasons why Ceresa is broken, even on small maps she can easily hit like a freight train. I think just scaling down most spells well do the trick but i think shard conversion being available to all factions also makes sense. And yes spell resistance could use a buff.

[quote who="psychoak" reply="2" id="3326815"] Would that be more or less make believe than the competing economic theory positing the federal government can continue spending 150% of it's revenue stream?[/quote] No, something more along the lines of Austerity.

There will never be equality but what we can do is continue investing in markets that produce high skill jobs and continue pushing kids through college. Even if this means allowing kids use government funds to ensure they receive that education.

[quote who="Hankers" reply="116" id="3326454"] I wouldn't use Wikipedia as a source of "evidence".[/quote] Unless you find a better way to cite sources over the internet, you have millions of waiting ears. I've provided evidence indicating that he was indeed Christian (at least in his mind, and the minds of millions of other Germans at the time, not to mention historians).

[quote who="Frogboy" reply="113" id="3326388"]You think it's ignorant to claim Hitler was an atheist when there is a considerable amount of evidence than he was? I don't think him being an atheist led to deaths. Besides which, Stalin and Mao were indisputably atheists. Humans like to believe in *something*. Fascism and Communism and other ideologies strike me as being no less religious than Christianity or Islam. Whether a person puts their faith in the state or a

[quote who="Lord Xia" reply="108" id="3326352"] That coming from some one who made the ignorant claim that Hitler was an atheist and made implications atheism was related to millions of deaths. And it's not an opinion based on just a 'few", it's world history. It's current history. &nb

As a strategy gamer I've come to accept that I play games in a NICHE market. I lOVE turn based strategy games with RPG elements (Like AoW and FE). I'm very excited for Legendary Heroes and i'm hoping you are considering a new galactic civilizations. SoSE is one of my favorite RTS games. I'm looking forward to a sequel if we ever get one. And i've been waiting a long time for a new homeworld game.

[quote who="Frogboy" reply="77" id="3326096"] Hitler and Stallin were atheists. [/quote] This is always a tough one to talk about. Hitler was not an atheist, common cultural misconception. Hitler was portrayed as an atheist because of the way he cracked down on many organized faiths and his nihilistic views. It was easy to accept an atheist that did what he did but a Christain would be alot for some to take in. Hitler premoted a type of Christanity that was free of it&

[quote who="Scoutdog" reply="72" id="3326049"] Quoting Nichtganz, reply 70Just because someone is Agnostic doesn't mean they're religious. There are agnostic atheists and agnostic theists. Agnostic atheists believe that divine creation is unlikely and most likely didn't occur but aren't going to go around tooting their horn about it because they believe in the burden of proof (Id est. the scientific process). Unfortunately in conservative America you run into predo

[quote who="Scoutdog" reply="68" id="3326028"] In general religious people tend to be more conservative. You strike me as pretty pure libertarian, which having been an anarchist myself through most of junior high (don't ask!), I can understand. I also suspect that the "left/right" section deals solely with social issues, while economic liberalism/conservatism is simply called "authoritarian/libertarian" on t
