Well, if we're not following torrent sites we're unlikely to notice when they are shut down. In a similar vein, I never noticed when The Silk Road closed. I never knew of either of these places.RetroRomper wrote:Apparently everyone missed this...
Following doctor's instructions and taking the proper drugs?Seriously, how did Tdarcos outlive my hard earned ratio?
Given the general rise in expenses and fall in the typical standard of living, the future ain't what it used to be.

A Republic is a form of Democracy.
Lets be clear, it isn't a direct democracy (and besides Switzerland those don't really exist,) but it is accepted as one just as much as say, the Parliamentary system.
Note: The US is actually a form of Mixed Democracy - propositions in many states are voted on directly (which includes tax increases among others) and Governorship / City Councils are a straight popular vote (as opposed to the Presidency which is based on the Electoral College.)

Now guess who said that.
