I don't know how accurate those prices are. I know how some companies like to inflate prices when they get a government contract.





There's a certain metaphorical poetry to the Occupy Wall Street movement damaging the city's bathrooms and sewage systems with unprecedented amounts of filth and poop.

And that while a bit gross and costly, the city repairs it in a few days and goes on uninterrupted as if it never existed.

    Liberals who bemoan discrimination, intolerance, restraint of Constitutional freedoms, and promotion of hatred toward various abberant minorities, have absolutely no problem with discriminating against, being intolerant of, restricting Constitutional freedoms of, and directing hate-filled scapegoat rhetoric against conservatives.

    EXACTLY what they accuse Republicans/conservatives of doing, is EXACTLY what liberals/Democrats do themselves, to those who oppose their beliefs.
