I'd like to know if chimps suffer from similar health issues as humans... Do they get diabetes from the high sugar consumption? Do they get hardening of arteries and liver failure from alcohol consumption?

Yes, exactly. Best Buy got Napster because they bought Roxio - the CD-Burning software company. LOL. "Roxio Toastt". Roxio was the first vulture to pick the bones of the original Napster, buying branding assets when the feds shut it down.

Doesn't ANYBODY but me remember that "Napster" was actually RealNetworks? You know, the old Real.com that was the Internet's first scale, commercial streamer? Real became Rhapsody for several years. Rhapsody had no name recognition, so they bought the Napster name from it's owners... BEST BUY.

There is no "liberal indoctrination", it jsut appears that way because conservative consider anything counter to their myopic view liberal.

In order to have a meritocracy, all people must have the same start. SOme oney, same education opportunities.
Of course, there is no real definition to meritocracy either.

Remember, the term 'meritocracy' was created as a pejoratively.

IT also relies on whos merit? Bezos is a billionaire, but it was from him, it was his workers. Should the people who created his site, the engineers the built it for him have the real merit?
