Jag...TA has unique tech trees for each race. If you want to get your feet wet with a familiar (DA/DL) tree play Terran (ugh). The wiki doesn't have a lot of TA info. The best (although time consuming) way is to us the ctrl+shift+r cheat in sandbox to view the tech trees and applicable structures.

[quote who="Daiwa" reply="204" id="2576000"] I used the term socialism in the generic sense when referring to the Soviet Union. Yes, I understand it was a Communist state.[/quote] The USSR was not a communist state. It was a dictatorship.

Perhaps it's only me. This bill has less to do with health care than it does politics. I'm on record in support of universal health care (100%)...but not in the manner presently crafted. Mumble, you may be correct...but I can't help think it's the camel's ass and not nose that has entered the tent. Rights, in my view, are protections from government not guarantees by the government.

Reply to Where does the US's obsession with the free market come from? in Everything Else GalCiv2 Forums

1099'ers are generally independent contractors subject to taxes paid by the payee, not the payor. Avoids payroll taxes (SS, workers comp, unemployment ~ 20%) to the payor. The point being contracting doesn't produce jobs in and of itself. That is not to say it doesn't have stress...most contractors grovel to both potential clients and banker...not to mention employees...who have only to grovel to a fucked up boss. psychoak...I don't always understand what you write,
