I decided today that I was going to go to a website that illegally post movies online and take 1 of the movies and add up the number of views to figure out how much it is taking out of our economy.. The movie I chose was Alvin and the Chipmunks: Chip-Wrecked that movie as of tonight when I looked had a total of 69,713 views. If we were to multiply that by $8.50 the price of a movie ticket these days our economy would be losing $592,560.50 now that is just with lost movie ticket prices but this movie is on DVD now and I am not sure how many of those views were after it came out on DVD so I am going to add $200,000 to that total as a rough estimated guess at what out losses were... So the new Grand Total as of today is $792,560.50 as our loss that could have been helping our Economy instead these websites are giving them away free and making money from ad companies selling ads on their sites... Well I got bored so I decided to take the number viewed from that one number and do an guess that I know will be a lot smaller than what it would be in reality on this website there are 146,067 movie choices so I multiplied that number with the 69,713 views from the Chipmunks movie knowing that some of these movies have a lot more views and some probably less and came up with 10,182,786,771 views of movies now this does not count any movies that was downloaded and put on DVD and sold that way... This right here with the life of this website has cost the Economy $86,553,534,553.50. That is a lot of money now these are just estimated numbers and again I only used $8.50 the price of a movie ticket in my area to come up with that cost.. This does not include any DVD sales that were missed out on because of this mass theft... We complain that the Economy is messed up but that is because we allow theft like this to be done... If this continues that number may be doubled before the end of the year....

South Carolina and the Confederate Flag Problem
The South Carolina State House still flying that damn Confederate Flag |
The biggest issue with South Carolina is that it will not remove the Confederate Flag from the State House.. They should be forced to remove this flag as it is showing that the state still believes that it is part of a nation which does not exist... We all know that South Carolina will withdraw itself from the United States of America the question is when... There are still policy makers in this state that wish to do so and if they had the backing would try... I believe that this states keeps this flag flying because they know that one-day they will try again to pull away from America, and they already have there country flag which still fly's at the State Capitol... It should be illegal by federal law that any US state be aloud to fly such flags without having a US Flag on a single pole... This law would not include single people but just state governments... The only flags a state government should be flying at there state capitol are their State flag and the United States flag no others...
