There's a billion people in Idaho?

Warning, dry joke explanation below. My funny dry explanations somehow aren't funny.
Saying that a billion dollars of the US stimpak was allocated to Idaho in exchange for 150 jobs and asking for division implies that the money would have been better spent by just dividing it amongst the jobless "benefactors." An even billion, of course, was chosen to give the easter egg result that DB found.
[/explainingthejoke]


I thought that the point of how Amerika runs was that when things don't work, they die and better companies feast on the remains. Where does giving the dying player a government Super Stimpak fit in? Use enough, the game's not even worth playing. Might as well be communism, the very definition of failure!

EDIT: Replaced socialism with communism. It was right the first time, but I'd rather keep the post theme intact than be factual.

i also find it funny how he likes people like Van Jones who is a communist, the communications czar looks to Chairman Mao,
also, one of his czars, i forget his name, but he supports the idea that an animal has the right to an attorney, stupid!
i mean for the love of god, we shot a damn missile at the moon, i understand trying to find ice and water n stuff, but, aren't they sending astronauts back up there in 3 years anyway?

FOR THE LOVE OF GOD PEOPLE, THEY GAVE 5.4 million (not sure of the exact ammount) to observe the sex lives of college girls............really?, so in essance you have a lot of money to a group of perverts.

i fail to see the point anymore, obama and his whole administration is just spending money like it's never-ending.

oh, don't get me started on the whole green energy thing, okay, here is the thing, it would take 33 years for their even to be a slight difference,
in 33 years, the way we are going now, ONE DEGREE
ONE FREAKING DEGREE, 

okay, so if 33=1, and al gore's film says like 90 or 100, lewts to the math,

33x100

ya know what that equals?

3,300 years!

NONE OF US WILL BE AROUND THEN.

EDIT: YES YES YES AND THE MOST VIEWS TOO, just happened, I LOVE THAT TOPIC. Why i am getting excited for having the topic with the most views and replies in a forum, I don't know, but I am happy ^.^

Actually, the temperature hasn't risen at all. The highest temperatures of the century were in the 1930s, and a cooling trend is beginning. Interesting, isn't it?

Envirotrend debate= Oreo's topic. This is for stimpak discussion.

On that note, I wonder how many jobs could be opened if a somewhat natural disaster hit a very dense city. Not enough, I assume. Economically though, I'd think that the new jobs and forced innovation would outweigh the relocation and rebuilding costs. Better investment than handouts anyways.

No. Stop. We get vandals like you on Wikipedia. To evade the final warning, you made two relevant posts that were intended to convince us that you weren't such a troll after all. It worked, for a minute. Now you're back to making random posts. If this was Wikipedia, you'd already be indef'd. I'm not convinced we need to give you a third chance if you're going to abuse it.

I'm not convinced either. As Shakespeare said in The Shakespeare Code, "Banished like a tinker's cuss, I say to thee Expelliarmus!"

What, so your saying socialism is a bad way to go? I may not like the extremes of socialism, but I think that a leftist government is a good thing.

No, it was a Fallout 3 joke and communism is the best punchline for it.

I'm actually very left-wing IRL. Even though Jack Layton is crazy, that's why I vote for the NDP (the Liberals are actually centre-wing, for the confused.)
