How am I benefiting from these people though? I don't do reach arounds. I vote on what I like. If my ratings were so inflated (using your theory) then why do I get low rated sites too? Are you saying upvoters never caught sight of those? Or maybe, there are some other people on this website that vote without this bias. I'm not saying that the FPA is responsible for every comment downvote. I'm not saying they are responsible for all immaturity on ytmnd. I am just saying that they are one contributing factor.

I don't remember inflatable black dildos in either show. But I did see the episode of fragglerock where they ran out of anal lube.

that way in about 8-10 years when we gas rise to $10.00 a gallon and a value meal at BK cost about $38.00 because of inflation, and the minimum wage becomes 20 an hour and no company can afford it so everyone is getting laid off, those guys would be the smart ones and still be filthy rich in european money. I'm moving.

He very clearly said that the federal reserve should be shut down. How do you elect someone to a board that does not exist? So, you get nothing.

The Fed would just lower the federal funds rate to 0% and print massive amounts of federal reserve notes, throwing the economy into a massive expansionary boost so that its members would gain re-election... leaving the subsequent hyperinflation and economic stagnation to another administration.

The monster appeared in Manhattan to look for a mate... Just as Hud postulated, the spidery things wanted to "make him their queen." At the end, when the monster was above Hud in Central Park, its 'air sacs' inflated on the side of its head, just as many birds and reptiles do as a mating ritual. Upon its observation that it had Hud's attention, a sign of aquiescence to mating, it 'nipped' him, just as dolphins do. Unfortunately, Hud's body just didn't live up to the monster's expectations.

like FatherMcKenzie who only downvotes with one account. I used to think deleting is the best thing, but punishing them by taking away their voting rights is just as good. Plus if it turns out to be a sibling or roommate, then it's possible to reverse the punishment. Something you can't do by deleting the account. How many times did Wingerding get caught not only upvoting his own sites with 20 alts, but downvoting other sites in the U&C to keep his ratings inflated? Nothing happened to him so he kept

Saturation would be an issue. How about a concept that YTMND hosts a competition monthly, bimonthly or trimonthly, where every site meeting a minimal view/vote count all get tallied up, they all get knocked down to a top 5 or 3 in the end, & after the final one is chosen, all the mods write a review for each site. I think that'd have a good balance of democracy, while still reducing inflation. LOL, inflation...

You are correct about government spending. 100%. But I don't think I can really agree with you about inflation. You ought to take into consideration that there is the officially reported number, and that there is something more important, namely, the relative prices of commodities, imported goods and foreign currencies in relation to the dollar. You should also remember that the government has a vested interest in presenting the inflation rate as favorable, because they are held accountable.

to all the people above... our situation surrounding inflation is the best it has ever been. The Fed is doing great keeping the inflation rate at a managable level so that there is less unanticipated inflation and investors can feel safe putting their money into stocks and bank accounts. What we need to worry about now is the budget deficit... the US is going bankrupt.

Also, when inflation goes up, things become more expensive. This is not even investment banker level knowledge, more like 7th grade level knowledge. Various financial publications have reported the value of the dollar going down and the price of gasoline going up.

Wrong civiliansam. If the Feds did not bail out banks, the banks would make more careful decisions, rather than be careless with credit, which is what gets them into trouble in the first place. If banks go under, it is their stupid faults. Bailing the banks out increases the money supply, which is the cause of inflation. Any financial publication could tell you this.

"I thought life was about being pretty, not about being authentic. Why don't you people love me? Everyone else says I'm pretty!" Yes, you are Paris Hilton, and you are a superficial whore. Nobody loves you, they just rated the stuff you stole highly. Get a personality, bro, quit stealing other people's stuff in order to inflate your ego. If you are content with yourself, then you won't have to whore yourself out to feel good about yourself.

The fact that this has so many views, on top of a good rating, is astounding. The Golden Gun was a f*cking pistol, this picture is stupid and the only redeeming quality is the music; even that aspect doesn't warrant a good rating. Take this overly inflated sh*t off of the top viewed.

Freakin' inflation. At this rate, in 50 years 599 US dollars might be a little over 599 pesos. (In the 1950s, a glass bottle of Coca Cola was 5 cents, compared to prices closer to 125 cents now)

"All I have said is that you're making ridiculous statements and pointing out their ridiculousness." Oh, you mean like how millions of people have died from genocide and mass starvation in communist countries? Or the fact that their economies collapsed from too much spending and inflation? Oh no, those are not relevant points at all.How about the fact that China is currently enjoying its greatest periods of economic growth after adopting more and more capitalism and free trade? I suppose you would call that a 'ridiculous' point as well.
