Doesn't work in the mass market. Otherwise, everyone would buy books and ignore most other forms of entertainment. You can get many hours of enjoyment from the collected works of ens, purchased second hand at a very reasonable price. And yet people go to the cinema in record numbers.

On an individual level, it may make sense. You have X number of dollars to spend, and choose to get some measure of bang for the buck by buying a video game instead of going out on the town. But for the mass consumer market, the outrage doesn't come on a dollar/hour basis, it's only when you increase ticket prices for that cinema by $2 or increase the game price by $10.

Americas spend money on crazy things, some very high priced with little value, across the board. Better?
 
North Americans don't produce anything worth while, they just consume.

They produce a ton of extremely high quality goods, both in Canada and the United States, just not much in the way off food products that I can think of.
 
I haven't brought Horizons yet. Somehow this translates to "refusing to buy it".

I'm actually waiting until next payday.

I'm in a similar position, i too ,apparently, am refusing to buy the LEP, luckily my Missus has bought it for me as a Birthday Present, she doesn't even have an account! Expect the FTSE and Dow Jones to be thrown into turmoil by this confusion according to the OP... :D
 
Might make a passable whisky, if distilled right and anyway, the original maker was born in Germany.

A bitter, yes please, mines a pint, a UK pint, better value.

I'll take one of those Imperial pints I had when in London. Just like in the universe of ED, The US of A is one of the largest exporters of semiconductors.
 
One thing that may be of interest to everyone is that today's price of FD share has hardly moved either up or down...so much for the idea that the announcement of Horizons has had much effect of FD stock at this point.

You all also might want to remember the cardinal rule of the Elite Forums: The success of ED at any given point in time is inversely proportional to the level of pure lunacy floating around on the Elite forums LOLOLOL

And now it turns into a bicker between two countries.. I'm out, this community bums me out

I am an American, and I love the Britts. I would say they love Americans also, just not the ones that are pathetic and go around saying we are #1. But this can be said about any country and their populace. Generalizing an entire country based off what we see on TV is one thing, but idiots are idiots. They come from every country. Some places just seem to have a higher concentration of them at any given moment, and sorry to say, my country is one of them. Here's to hoping that changes in the future.
 
...and now beer!

Blech. I'll take a cold lemonade.

Edit- Actually, I have a question that I've wondered about. For those that like beer (or other alcohol), was it something that you always liked, or did it take a while of it tasting bad before you started to enjoy it? I can't stand the flavour, so I just avoid it. Not really intending to start, but I've wondered if it's entirely an acquired taste or some people just like it to start with.

I strongly disagree
