  • This is not new technology. Flare guns for marine use which shoot a 12 gauge flare have been available for decades. Remember what Biden said about 12 gauge. If you shoot someone with a flare gun it is much worse than bullets. The flare just burns inside of you and you can’t put it out. A metal fire is the worst type of fire, just ask the Navy who almost lost a aluminum destroyer in the Gulf. With a bit of plastic and a 3 in one mill drill center you could machine your own copy of that flare gun. You do not need to go on the internet to find these items, just your local marine store.

  • All I want to see is how are they getting paid. This is all a follow the money trail

  • The last sentence said it all. Information technology and manufacturing can’t find qualified employees. I am sure Twinkies was one company in that survey. Now with the new immigration bill being worked on, all the employees you need will be available. The part of interest is the High skill part or staple an green card to your diploma. No, it’s all about reducing wages. Obama is only part of the problem, the republicans who really want to be democrats (i call them democrats light) are the second half of the problem.

  • This is what Hitler wanted when he was in power also but it was human. Blond ****, blue yes…..

  • When I saw hat the person decrying the report was federal funded my first thought was. I guess he must come up with negativity on the report and reap more funding. While I don’t know what was tested, I have little respect for computer programs that predict anything. I don’t believe in global warming as man made. I still can’t explain the year of no summer or while the 11 century was so warm that grape grew in England and GREENLAND (discovered and founded by the Vikings) was so green .

  • The immigration bill that includes More H1b visa’s is a sad day for America. It has destroyed the STEM professions as a career. It forces most professionals out by age 40, using the excuse that their skills are not up to date. Stem professions have seen the lowest average pay increases over 10 years of any professional. I just hope when people look back years from now when most new products come from overseas that recognize that it was the elite in Washington DC who made the choice. They did it in hope of campaign funds while using poor education as a cover. All STEM work will then originate from the halls of congress. This deal is done by the REPUB u CRATES. I tell engineering students to move on to other fields like Finance and learn how to cook books like done in other third world countries. I say that because that is where the US is heading. Thank you Republicans and Democrats, liberal and conservative. It’s about the money.

  • I wish NBC would remove some of the violent television series shows it presents. I don’t have cable so I don’t see their cable shows. I do get their off the air programming when the weather is right and so much is violence. Lately all I watch is ME, Antenna, and RTV where the violence is benign. This includes BATMAN, Lost in Space and others which I watch with my four year old daughter.

  • I would assume that Paul’s views would reflect his fathers. He was raised with Libertarian beliefs. I do not hold that against him. Reading the comments, I don’t think people remember the immigration history of the US. While the statue has engraved at its base “Bring me your tired, your Poor” that was not the case. We only accepted skilled, educated, healthy people. Today’s immigration is more forgiving but still requires the same. Today’s we train immigrants who in many cases transfer the technology they learn here back to their native country. I believe we are being hollowed out as a nation by this transfer. Then we have illegal immigrants who come here to make money as manual labors for their families at home (foreign country). While they may reduce the cost of farming, house construction, and yard upkeep, they have a significant cost to society. I also support reducing the military, I believe that China and Russia have more to lose in a middle east blow up than we do.

  • This is not news for me. I am a small business owner and I dropped out of the GOP in 2000. In the late 1990′s the GOP couldn’t do enough for big business. Congressional records show comments by GOP congressmen saying “that’s where the money is”, remember “K” street. That is why I spent time firing GOP members “Santorum”. How is it that Lowes and Home Depot sell China product and ignore US product of better quality and lower price. Se ABC news on that subject. Both parties have at grown Washington at the expense of the Middle Class and Small business. Now big business supports a minimum income “tax payers payout” so they can continue the ponzi scheme. Big business through Hedge funds has become the 1904 “Trusts” of the current times. Obama has not pushed us any further left than Republicans would have had they controlled the economy. Currently both parties support “staple a green card to your diploma” which I believe will ship more technology and manufacturing out of the country. H1B’s, work visa’a that big companies get that suppress wages
    and their costs that small business can’t get. All this under the premise that “American are not smart enough, lazy or do not have the current skills. All you get from Republicans is Democrat ideas ‘the lite version’. Many business can’t even be started because your supplies are overseas. Think steel, electronic components, machinery.
