In 1930, the Republican-controlled House of Representatives, in an effort to alleviate the effects of the... Anyone? Anyone?... the Great Depression, passed the... Anyone? Anyone? The tariff bill? The Hawley-Smoot Tariff Act? Which, anyone? Raised or lowered?... raised tariffs, in an effort to collect more revenue for the federal government. Did it work? Anyone? Anyone know the effects? It did not work, and the United States sank deeper into the Great Depression. Today we have a similar debate over this. Anyone know what this is? Class? Anyone? Anyone? Anyone seen this before? The Laffer Curve. Anyone know what this says? It says that at this point on the revenue curve, you will get exactly the same amount of revenue as at this point. This is very controversial. Does anyone know what Vice President Bush called this in 1980? Anyone? Something-d-o-o economics. "Voodoo" economics.

In 1972 a crack commando unit was sent to prison by a military court for a crime they didn't commit. These men promptly escaped from a maximum security stockade to the Los Angeles underground. Today, still wanted by the government, they survive as soldiers of fortune. If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire the A-Team.

Peace is a lie, there's only passion.
Through passion, I gain strength.
Through strength I gain power.
Through power, I gain victory.
Through victory, my chains are broken.

The Legendary Shark

I experienced an Event the other day and I need to tell you all about it because none of my RL friends will understand and mostly because I feel it important that I should teach you about what I learned from this Event even though (you claim) you have experienced a similar event it simply cannot be of the same high order of magnitude as the Event I experienced that quite laterally changed my life (yes, I said laterally on purpose to demonstrate that my whole perspective on life has changed thanks to this Event) and I'm now Chosen of God to tell you what the Event means and how it changed my outlook for the better and will also change yours and it's so simple the Lesson is that you just have to blah blah blah blah happiness blah blah positive energies blah blah waffle piffle blah Great Spirit wiffle blah blah cast into Hell for the rest of time.

Pfft. They did that in 'The Not-Too-Brightly-Lit-At-All Zone' in 1732. Somebody should sue somebody and I should be respected and revered for my wide-ranging and comprehensive knowledge of all sorts of pointless obscura.

How dare you! You probably just haven't watched films in the correct order.
