Yeah Objectivism is what we really need now. More individualism and laissez faire capitalism. After all, aren't we all perfect and rational human beings who are never going to interfere with other people rights? And the few of us who would do it would be stoped by the government (not educated or...

A specific question that's somehow related to the candidates... what do you think of your health system? Would you like it to be more "European/Canadian" style? (welfare state style, the kind that increases taxes to provide a free high quality service), or the kind that I understand you have now?

And what do you guys think about this Ron Paul? Judging from the outside he doesn't seem so bad... http://www.salon.com/news/feature/2007/06/02/ron_paul/

I think a good solution to organize campaign financing would be to provide a certain amount of free air time (TV, radio, Internet is probably beyond this kind of control however, although some measures could try to restrict the amount of websites dedicated to each campaign) to each party and...

We have an election here next Sunday. It's for the Mayor of Buenos Aires. There are 3 main candidates with chances (the rest of the country's provinces will have just 2, one of each party when their election time comes however), and the amount of money they're throwing makes perfectly clear that...

Hahahaha... then I'll try to get my US visa and get there to vote for the guy/lady...

Someone above said that, even though Democracy is clearly the best we have at this point in human history, people don't seem to have trust on it. Argentineans feel in the exact same way. And we even had a brutal 6-year dictatorship that killed 30.000 people and launched us into a completely...

I'm from Argentina, and I'll try to give you an opinion on how things look from the outside like the first guy asked. I think it was Frank Zappa who said that the difference between your political parties is that Republicans drink CocaCola and Democrats PepsiCola, and that's representative of...

Look, if the guy confused Wasteland to be tabletop instead of videogame, and said that sandbox games were a rarity (but you say they weren't because there were 4 or 5 of them, which for some people could make them a rarity) is not that important for me. And they apologized for the mistakes in...

Not so crass from my point of view

I consider myself a Fallout fan. Played 1, 2 and Tactics several times. That being said, and with no intentiones whatsoever of starting a flame war, most of the fans of this game remind me of the Tolkien fans who could not enjoy the movies because "Faramir never took the hobbits to...

Glad you liked it, and I assumed the situation was pretty much the same in all Latin America, so thanks for confirming it Meneguzzi. I agree that companies should pay attention to regional realities if they don't want to loose customers to piracy.

Also, and this might only aplied to third world again, there are a thousand things I can't get unless I download them, music above all. The market is just too small for some artists to get edited here, and if the alternative exists, is between the imported CD (for a pirce that could mean having...

I'm the guy who wrote the Third World Pirate article. I think that the real issue with piracy is that the Internet has made available for millions what in the past was only available for a few. Who hasn't copied music tapes? But from the point of view of the music industry, you could only copy a...
