    How can shrinking help an airline’s bottom line?

    First, it saves money.

    wow. the fact that this question needed to be asked shows the appalling state of today's business world.

    you mean they can't just keep expanding forever in order to turn a profit? Lol!

    This just makes me laugh. I mean, look at them! They're hilarious!

    It's no wonder they won, the other team probably couldn't stop laughing. It's like a whole bunch of Marcel Marseaults got together and had a few too many shots of Pernod.

    They should bring back "miniskirt police" and do an ice version just so Miki can play the starring role. They could redo the episode where the car goes up on 2 rims and plunks down just in front of the miniskirt policewoman (miki) creating a whoosh of air that lifts her... hmm, on ice that may not work so well. maybe a zamboni? hmm, have to think about this more.

    inkjet,

    no one in america is denied basic medical service.

    read my post, I never said that. Maybe I should have, but I didn't. I said that my dad got artificial hips for free in Canada, whereas my friend's dad couldn't in the States, despite being insured. Them's the facts. Now, my dad, who is 75 can live like a 55 year-old, and my friend's dad, who is 65, is living like a 85 year-old.

    If you think that giving everyone with bad hips or knees etc the ability to walk through a fairly simple (and by simple, I mean that it is performed frequently and with a high rate of success) is not basic medical service, I will continue to say that the American system is a joke. In Canada, this kind of operation is "basic." It is indicative of a far higher average level of care. And did I meantion it's free????

    Freedom fries, indeed!

    Teleprompter. If a system is built and maintained only to provide full service to a portion of the population, while holding the same services out of reach for those who cannot afford it, it is literally, a system for the rich, and therefore a joke, for the the average joe.

    It's the truth. His insurance says it's not necessary, and will not cover him. Taint no lie. And my dad did get them for free!!! free!!! let me say this again, it cost him...nothing!!!

    If you really have worked in American hospitals, and with many relatives in the same boat, if you're doctors that is, you're happy with the status quo. High salaries.

    That's the bottom line, isn't it? money. and making a buck, at the expense of people's well being. Sounds like the opposite of the hippocratic oath to me.

    The American system is a joke.

    The American health care system is the joke of the so-called first world nations. It's a system for the rich, only. My American co-workers marvel at the Japanese system, while their parents back home can't pay for their necessary care.

    My father in Canada had his hips replaced for free under Medicare. My American buddy's father needs the same, but can't get it, even after working his butt off for 50 years of his life. I should say working his hips joints off.

    The Republican mentality is cannibalizing America. They think everything is a competition, and even health care should be restricted to only those who can afford it. That's the only way they feel happy: to have something others don't.

    my guess is that eventually all youtube videos will start with a 10 second (unskippable) ad spot.

    what a sad commentary of the quality of posts and or posters here. it's almost like this was a setup to see who would take the bait and jump in with an over-the-top slam of a bunch of old guys waiting for something.

    Seriously. Slams for not smiling, or wearing a hat backwards before sticking a camera up to your eye, or being in a group, or even the mere fact of being old?

    Jaw-dropping pathetic.

    Cheney's trying to deflect his legacy. He's still resposible for Iraq, and he wants everyone to forget about it.

    There's been this idea around for a long time that investing in stocks is too risky, too. It's definitely a different perception.

    In reality, though, entrepreneurship has always been a small scale thing. Mom and Pop shops abound, including restaurants, hairdressers etc, to a far greater extent than they do in the west. I just think there's less of the Anglo-Saxon expansionist mentality too. maybe that idea of keeping social cohesion plays part of it.

    i dunno.

    It's not that Japanese companies do badly overall, the big ones at least, it's that there is so much potential for the entrepreneurial secto that is wasted through lack of support and lack of confidence. Imagine if they were equal to their American counterparts in the global arena in both of these respects. It's kind of a scary thought.

    I kind of like the idea. It's a cool way to study pandemics, without an actual virus. Seems like everybody here has a bad case of knee-jerkitis.

    Everybody, chillax. You're not going to feel a thing. heh heh heh

    What a train wreck. Sell more pick-ups in Jersey City, they say. And they wonder why they're getting killed by the Japanese.
