Despite my best efforts, the leading cause of death in my, without doubt, glorious nation is 'disappearance'(47.6%).

Which, frankly, is their own fault.

They should have known that, yes, they're allowed to have their own opinions.

As long as you agree with my opinions, I really don't care.

If they can't realise that, they are simply too stupid to live.

Yes, but do you WANT it to last for generations?

The older a car becomes, the more one will spend on the maintenance of said car.

After a while,a new car, will, in the long term, be cheaper than the old car.

Therefore you don't want a longlasting car, because it would cost more to build and in the end, more to maintain.

Nothing good can come from the people overpowering their leader. You don't see sheep telling the shepard what to do, so why should we?

A good shepherd, is so good at herding sheep, that the sheep don't even know they are being led...

Using the sheep's hopes and dreams, fears and anxieties; the sheepdogs, the threat of the circling wolves (whether there or not), the promise of greener pastures, good company, sex, a better life for their little lambs, and the threat of impending violence or death they are controlled and manipulated without many ever seeing the shepherd - They may question the shepherd's authority (or even existence), and even think they may demand things of the shepherd (who cannot hear/listen or acknowledge them), yet they all end up sheared, shawn, butchered and dead by the expert shepherd's manipulations and machinations...

What can one teach a housecat?

They get free food, free housing and get petted.

If they want, they sleep through the day.

Everybody wants to live like they do.

Few succeed.

The fact that they're capable of said feat proves they're more intelligent than the average human.

Why would I choose a human who studied economics as advisor?

Everyone knows that if you're actually intelligent, you don't study economics.

The intelligent become doctors, rocket scientists, engineers...

Not economists.

And yet you're telling me he's smarter than you are. I wonder...

Didn't Henry Ford die?

Such business practices are clearly detrimental to your health.

It had nothing to do with his business practices, just old age. Humanity does that, in case you haven't found that out...

Considering all this witch burning was based on piss-poor translations in the King James version of the Bible. Twenty-three different professions were lumped together under the label of witch, when it said "...Suffer not a witch to live...", it was referring to a woman who poisoned her husband. No of the other twenty-two professions were meant to be subject to that penalty. After all, King Solomon himself consulted with the "Witch of Endor', who was a Snake-Priestess...
