Lets talk about the economy, such as, where is all the money going and why?

I personally think, that Las Vegas needs to rethink about thier doings. Hundreds of Billions of dollars get sucked into the place, causing more troubles than anything else. They really need to start giving back.

I also blame the CEOs of major companies, they are the most greedy group of people out there. In fact, when the FBI went to talk to a certain CEO about money fraud, the found that he committed suicide. He has spent millions of dollars for himself, not to mention millions was shiped over seas. The money that went over seas can't be recovered.

In general though, the rich and powerful, are the ones messing up the economy. Even if somebody is not even involved in thier company, they still manage to suck some money out of them.

Seriously, the people who look down there noses to look at us, need a harsh lesson.

The economy would get back up if there were some more damn jobs. And they don't even need to be created, much as Congress would like you to believe. There's plenty of job opportunities, so long as you give the opportunities to Americans. Too many jobs have been outsourced. This country doesn't make anything anymore. We used to have plenty of different industries, like textiles and steel and the like. But now its all overseas.

If those jobs came back, there'd be people clamoring all over them. And in turn, America starts putting out things people can buy. And when people buy them, money starts circulating. And suddenly, you have a working economy again.

It really isn't that simple. Outsourcing jobs that don't provide enough money for basic survival doesn't make that big a difference. Thanks to globalization, unskilled labour in a post-industrial society such as we live in is far too expensive and legally, corporations have to do what will bring the most profit for it's shareholders. They have no responsibility to the community.

We don't have industries because we're a postindustrial society and the unskilled labour we have today are service sector jobs. They pay poorly. But things aren't going to go back to the way they were.

And it's not only about unskilled labors. From my point of view as a software developper, I also see skilled jobs getting sent to other countries because of lower wages, even if the staff in the foreign countries isn't as competent. One joke at the office used to say that our South American branch was staffed with people costing 5 times less, yet it took 5 of them to do the job as one person from our group. We did see eventually who got to keep his job...

Another problem is, there are companies out there that can and will, fire someone for not cutting thier hair within certain periods of time. Or laid off, for overdoing thier job.

Some companies can be quite picky on who they want to hire, despite if they have a diploma or not.

The oceans are one place that we've yet to really explore. Outer space is one thing, our seas is something else that I believe is worth checking into.

If someone were to make a movie based on the game of the first Castlevania, who do you think would make the best casting.

Now, I personally think that Randy Orton, from WWE. Would make an awesome Belmont.

Dracula, is a tough one. Considering he is still in his younger looking stage, so many candidates. Let me get back into that one later.

I think the better idea is not to make a Castlevania movie in the first place.

True to some degree, but this is more of a wishful thinking discussion. Even if the movie never is made, doesn't hurt to actually discuss it.

I can see Chuck Norris as Dracula, if Symphony of the Night were to be a movie.

Chuck Norris is to old to be a Belmont, sorry, but somebody had to say it.

Why not Christopher Lee? He's even played Count Dracula before, in other films.

And talk about an epic voice. Too bad he maybe too old to fight, although, they did have a double play his character Count Dooku in Star Wars during the lightsaber fights.

Dracula does not seem much for a speaking role in Castlevania, from what I've seen (read: not a lot) so if you ask me, whichever actor that masters Dracula's trademark wine glass throw should get the role.

Jim Carrey made an awesome vampire in one of his earlier movies called, Once Bitten.

He could make a cool Dracula. Queen Latifah would make an awesome Medusa.

A new discussion dwells forward...

What is your favorite card game? I am not talking about YuGiOh or battle card games. I am talking about vegas games, such as Texas Holdem', Black Jack and all that.

I myself prefer to play Black Jack, that is where my luck is.

I don't really play card games (or more like: I haven't played card games on a regular basis for years), so it's difficult for me to give you a solid answer. A classic in the family is something we call "31", but I have no clue if that's the actual name for the game or not...

This brings me back, though. We used to play cards at my grandmother's house every few weekends, usually for a large chunk of the evening. We haven't really done that ever since my grandfather became sick and passed away. He was the best of the group, despite his bad eyesight!

I am more of a chess player than a card player - strategy over luck there. But if I would have to pick one, it'd be Toepen [wikilink].

The new discussion shall be...

If you had a chance to travel over seas, where, why and what would you do.

I personally would go to Germany, alot of my family history dwells there.

If not there, Japan would be the next place to go. Mainly because of the woman. :P

Japan, a few places in the U.S. with a possible side-dish of Canada, Rio de Janeiro and Rome.

And if the bad hygene/war problems would get solved, China (with some Hong Kong as a bonus) and Jerusalem.

Rome should be easy enough to do, and me and some friends are already saving up and planning on a trip to Japan, tour a bit around, wander around Tokyo and Kyoto for a day or two. Some places in the U.S. I could also see myself visiting quite easily still, since I have been to the U.S. four times before, but that was prettymuch just visiting family.

Where: Vancouver, to see Canada coast-to-coast (maybe next year!); Europe/France, to see the old continent (maybe in two years!); Japan, to be completely surprised by a foreign country (maybe who-knows-when!)
Why: To see the world, of course!
What: I only have a rough idea about each place, so I'd only see for the "what" part as I'd be planning the trip. What would most likely influence this the most is who I'd be travelling with.
