"The principle is the same. The concept of dictatorship is not necessarily bad, the problem is how it's implemented. In any case many countries think they have a democracy, but they don't." - Felipe Contreras

"That's why I write documents by hand on HTML, or even better, Tex. This way I don't loose time trying to fix every single detail, and they still look awesome and well organized :)" - Felipe Contreras

"Here, have all my upvotes. Doesn't matter how I convey my arguments, if they support a controversial opinion, they get down-voted immediately. I wonder if anybody has ever changed their minds in the history of reddit." - Felipe Contreras

"> I think when you link to naturalnews, you automatically lose. I noticed you went for the second link, so even if you won't admit you're retarded, at least you've corrected your ignorance. Maybe you'll come around eventually. Learn how to discuss: http://www.paulgraham.com/disagre... When you resort to name-calling, you already lost. This is the lowest form of discussion, but since your argument have no merit whatsoever, I guess that's the only thing you can do. You said I should Google it, and now you don't like the results I found. Well, go complain with mother nature. That's the way things are, and you haven't provided **a single piece of evidence** that shows otherwise. You are just name-calling an throwing bullshit in the air." - Felipe Contreras

"> No, you can google it. It's there and you know it. Just google [plant based plastics]. That's all you had to do. If you're too ignorant to hold an opinion about a subject, it's not my job to get you up to speed. Right. Well, here's the second result: http://www.physorg.com/news... > The Pitt team found that while biopolymers are the more eco-friendly material, traditional plastics can be less environmentally taxing to produce. Exactly like I said, so your theory is debunked." - Felipe Contreras

"> Starcraft? This is the real world son... The real world is also constrained by resources, and you can't do much without infrastructure." - Felipe Contreras

"> http://www.2wplastic.com/corn-pe... That doesn't even mention how much corn and energy was needed to produce this pen. And remember, corn is subsidized in the U.S., and it's produced with oil based fertilizers, and oil based pesticides. So you need oil to produce that pen." - Felipe Contreras

"> No the evidence is there. Where? Where is the link? > It's right there if you care to look. It's there for anyone still reading this thread, and it's there for you. [citation needed] is a desperate cry for the ignorant. I don't give a shit if you choose to remain ignorant. I'd honestly rather you remain stupid. If you started looking up stuff, you might be more than a fly I have to swat. Desperate and silly attempts to avoid the fact that you don't have any evidence. If it's so easy to find, you could just google it, and provide a link. Why don't you do that instead of replying the same bullshit over and over again? That's right, because you know you would not find it." - Felipe Contreras

"Is anybody else bothered by the physical integrity of that axe? Looks to me it would break rather easily." - Felipe Contreras

">> Where's the evidence? > As I said, it's practically common knowledge. Your choice to remain willfully ignorant is not my problem. So you don't have any evidence, thus your belief on this merely wishful thinking." - Felipe Contreras

"> It's not like plant-based plastics are some theoretical substance. Seven years ago, I saw pens made of corn at Wal-Mart. Where's the evidence? > If you know what he's talking about, then why the need to cite his source? I don't know what he is talking about, I am assuming that is the case. There's a reason all those materials are built based on petroleum. It took millions of years to condense the organic compounds, you can't just take some plants and do the same from one day to the next. You would need a massive amount of organic materials, and energy, to do something remotely similar. That's my guess." - Felipe Contreras
