Minimum wage increasing to $9 an hour won't help a single thing, unless price freezes all across the US were to be instituted. It's about profit margins. Profit margins say that all in all, no matter what the minimum wage is, the cost of goods will increase at an equal or slightly higher factor...

Confidence is a matter of perspective, and is subjective. As it stands, I personally don't think it is only confidence that people look for, but rather, that particular quality, or even parts of that quality, in parity with something else. A person who is confident, yet lacks a skill or trait...

I for one am getting tired of bleeding hearts as well as persons who don't think things through, or who don't even live in America suggesting what is best for it's people. If you live in America? Great. Don't worry about what I do, so long as it doesn't harm you and yours. If you don't? Bugger...

Technically you are still on the same server. However, unless you are in a group with your guild, or any of your other friends, interacting with them is a toss-up. You can wind up gather resources on a pve server, even though you are pvp. It's all incredibly screwed. I agree Aeshi. However...

As it is, I am not an avid fan of WoW. I have told the people I socialize with that the reason I quit WoW was because it turned into Facebook with a video game UI. Add to that the removal of challenge and you have a formula for failure in my book. It would seem however, and I am estimating...
