Economies ranging from the United States to Cuba have been termed mixed economies.
No country in the world is 100% capitalist. Get that out of your head, we're one of the "most capitalist" countries in the whole world.
It's not sedition or dislike I care about, it's getting the facts straight. Oh, and I sorry that I didn't see Jack's post earlier I would have deleted it:

1. @Ice: It was Deli and Loki batting about the 'r' word. I didn't say anyone was.
2. 18+ should mean 18+. Not 6+, or 9+, but 18+. It's rated so for a reason.

edit: also what's with all the little kids packing heat nowadays anyways lol I keep hearing about kids killing each other in the bad parts of town
I'm pretty such people have the MOST empathy and common sense when there's a World War going on lol. Kinda paradoxal though isn't it? I mean... besides for the enemy side, people really band together and revert to a less conformed state when times are bad.
Maybe we should hurry up in our plans to: "Take over the world, pastry style!"
Re: Supreme Court Evaluating Game Sales to Minors
If there's a war out there, Ice, then we should just send all those kids who're "strapped" to take care of them for us.

The number of times I've walked into game to see 10 year olds trying to buy Halo, or the 7 year old who doesn't want The Sims, but does want Fallout 3, and whose parents are willing to let him. That ought to be punishable. As far as I know, the ratings are legally binding, so criminal proceedings aren't out the question...
Yes, But do you actually notice, its also the game makers fault, Have you seen a single game advert without it being 15? The last game I saw that is +7 is back in 2006.
Also, Look at this game closely:
As you see, They released a violent game, which is now 15, while the rating was pending.
Re: Supreme Court Evaluating Game Sales to Minors
It's not just video games that are released like that. Adverts & trailers used to have warnings about flash photography for epileptics, now they don't. Here in the UK, they claimed they wouldn't put on alcohol adverts during the day, yet I see them all the time. But as long as people aren't smoking, crime will drop..(!)
The world has changed. If God really existed, he would repeat the whole 'wash it away' thing... expect maybe just forget starting over.

Re: Supreme Court Evaluating Game Sales to Minors
Didn't they used to advertise smoking in the 1930/60's?
Re: Supreme Court Evaluating Game Sales to Minors
Well we've learned quite a lot more on the dangers of smoking since then. Also, the game bully is rated 13+ here in America, and it is one of my fav. PS2 games. It isn't violent in the slightest. Nobody dies and the comedy is just silly pranks.

Yes, But it encouranges kids to bully, yet, I noticed, No One dies, But people get seriously hurt, And yet the easter eggs would yet scare little children, with the werewolf in forest at night, Yet I dont see how making a rocket launcher and blowing someones face off is a prank. But, I love the food fights.
Btw, Anyone noticed that they've quit on Rayman game's, Crash Bandicoot, Simpson's, Sims, Lego, Guitar heros turned 15 and Ratchet and clank? They've all gone into serious games now, All that kids can play is Fifa 09 or Spiderwick chronicles, and I'm sure thats not really fun, So, they want modern warfare 2, What ever happened to Serious sam?
And also, kids, can just download an 18 game demo, like left 4 dead 2, or batman arkham asylum without any trouble.

Re: Supreme Court Evaluating Game Sales to Minors
wtf are you talking about there is no werewolf in Bully and no easter eggs. And there is no rocket launcher just a potato and firecracker launcher. And that type of sh*t doesn't even hurt people that bad. If anything, that game builds character. And the police/authorities spawn 5 feet away from you when you punch somebody anyways. And all the pranks in that game are completely silly and nonviolent. "Ohh... the dog shitted in the paper bag and we put the bag in front of the teacher's lounge." I've done funnier things than that in high school. But everything else in that game is funny as hell though haha.

Re: Supreme Court Evaluating Game Sales to Minors
ok so dude... the first video was complete bullshit. there is a werewolf "mask" but no werewolf. The person who made the video is a complete idiot that probably speaks English as a 5rd language or something. As for the rockets, I meant that there aren't any "violent" rockets in the game. Launching bottles and potatoes at people isn't violent. Play the game. Really. Nobody gives a sh*t about those types of things. What parents should be worried about are the reasons listed on the first page of the topic. Bad parenting, financial troubles, society: they are all more important than punching people in videogames. There is no werewolf, just a mask. I remember that game clearly I was just playing it from start last week.
