  • Don't believe me? This guy has an equation for population control: CO2 = People x Services Per Person x Energy Per Service x CO2 per Unit Energy.

    Search for ZNyo0Gu7064 in YouTube and see for yourself.

    I wonder what he means by "probably one of these number is going to have to get pretty near to Zero"? Especially when the screen changes to show people...

    Still think the vaccines are safe?

  • "formidable" definition: causing fear, dread, or apprehension. Why is eradication causing fear, dread, or apprehension?

    "fortitude" definition: strength of mind that enables a person to encounter danger or bear pain or adversity with courage. Why should countries deploying tools at their disposal cause you to have strength of mind that enables a person to encounter danger or bear pain or adversity with courage?

    Now try reading the same statement and replace the word "Polio" with "People".

  • "We are making this grant and asking you to raise your match by the middle of 2012 because we know that eradication won’t come overnight. We know that it’s formidable. We don’t know exactly when the last child will be affected but we do know that we have the vaccines to wipe it out. Countries do have the will to deploy the tools at their disposal and by your continued fortitude to see this effort through to the end we will eradicate Polio. Thank you." Bill Gates.

  • It's beyond me how 10 out of 62 can dislike this?

  • @rocknotes

    Hey rocknotes... Fuck you!

  • BETTER TO BURN U. S.UCK A.SS (USA) MONEY THAN TO TRANSFER IT TO OTHER CURRENCIES IF THE VALUE INCREASES FOR THAT...BECAUSE U. S.UCK INVESTED TRILLIONS TO SPY ON ME AND USE ALL MY LIFE TO PAY THEMSELVES IN THE MEDIA WHILE SETTING ME UP AND KILLING ME AND TORTURING ME AND KEEPING ME AT NOTHING IN LIFE FUCKED WITH EVERYDAY BY STUPID THEIVES THAT JUST LIE AND GOSSIP AND RUIN THE MENTALITY OF THE PLANET.

  • ASSHOLE STOLE ALL THE PREP WORK AND CLAIMED IT ALL.

  • Those who think immunization is for depopulation of third world countries should go and live there, so they will know first hand. These claims are also made by extremists in some of the third world countries. As long as we have idiots among us, we won't be able to solve the problems of our human race. Just get involved and fix it instead of making accusations. Oh, and try to donate some of your time and money as well for what you believe is the right kind of help! Talk is cheap!

  • It makes me sad to see some extremely ignorant individuals who think it is part of being intellectual and smart to question every good intention and good deeds. There arel over 1,000,000 Rotary members in 135 different countries. Rotarians are the community leaders who give their time, money and talent for world peace and understanding. There are a large number of student exchange, clean water and other programs. It hurts me to see some idiots question the integrity of good men and women.
