I'm not sure about the rest of you, but I will soon be part of the quote "500 million Americans who will most likely lose their jobs" this month, and I'm saving my words in case I can sell them to raise funds to buy food to eat. I'm part of that "impoverished group".....
Are you aware there are only about 304 million Americans? And if you divided the expected cost of the "stimulus package" amongst every man, woman, and child in the country, each one would receive about $2700?
Instead, though, when you DO lose your job, pop on down to the local family planning clinic and pick up your stimulus plan condoms. I mean, if you're going to be out of work you might as well have some fun in your spare time.
What was the topic of this thread again? Something about Hitler and a hot chick?

As I read the posts, I deduced that she is a "cool lady" and a decent person who was internettally assaulted by a 'chess-nazi'. not sure where some users got things a little bit "interpreted".
and I do have fun in my spare time.
I do know how many Americans the census places here, Some arithemetically challenged legislator said if something wasn't approved immediately, "500 million Americans will lose their jobs every month." or some such inanity. In trying to figure it out, my friends suggested that the 307 million Americans will be joined in the welfare lines by all the 193 million illegal immigrants, including the president's own aunt who seems to have little regard for American Immigration law. but what do I know anyway ???
having lots of difficulty with liberal arithmetic, but then there seems to be a lot of numerically challenged in his cabinet picks - and the congress/senate are no different, now it turns out frankel owes $50,000 bucks to the IRS too. That obviously qualifies him for a job governing our country. CHANGE has come to AmeriKa.
You have just earned yourself an immediate friending.
i agree with popinjay people shouldnt be so picky its not like we are playing for money or anything and besides i thought the point of this site was to have fun playing a game we all love

Three pages so far not of chess Nazis, but chessless Nazis. This is called a chess thread simply because the word chess has been inserted. I knew that RetGuvvie98 actually knew that there were not 500 million Americans losing jobs and he was leading to another point. The promiscuous use of the term Nazi trivializes it and causes insensitive usage. This thread trivializes chess and makes it much less likely that the "stimulus package" (sounds like a witch's accomplice) will include an earmark for chess.

RetGuvvie98, no, I did not think the bill produced by the Tax Cheat and Spend Party would have an allocation specifically for chess. There could be money for enrichment and after school programs, which include chess as one activity. I teach in various schools. They get money from parents, grants, and taxpayers. Some students are covered by "scholarships," meaning they are not charged for. I was hoping for an earmark for my proposed pilot take-off program. This is not intended for Al Qaeda pilots, who do not land, but for pilots such as the one who recently landed in the Hudson after losing his engines to geese. Al Qaeda would not hire him because he could not hit a building. I call the program "Duck, Duck, Goose." The ducks are not always the safe ones. For example, the airliner that was blown up over Scotland was brought down by Khaddafy Duck.

well, Greenlaser, I sincerely hope your grants come through and you get funded for teaching chess to kids. More kids need to learn chess early and stick with it. It teaches them accountability, steadiness, and responsibility, - - - characteristics that seem to be in short supply among many politicians of all types (not pointing at any specific party here - that was an "apolitical" point.)
There are few enough Chess coaches (like You) actually concerned about imparting chess knowledge to kids - most I've met are only interested in skimming as much money as possible from the market.
I know for certain that I cannot balance my household budget by borrowing money to increase my indebtedness to pay off debt. That doesn't work except in ponzi schemes - but this is enough 'off topic' chatter.
How do you know my household budgeting process?

uhhh .... Ret Ropes pawnzischeme back to the topic. chess nazis .... I was referring to my household budgeting process, not yours, and I was presuming about greenlaser's motivation to teach kids chess - that he does it to increase chess knowledge in his community. That he earns some minor stipend by doing it is a choice for him and for his students. but that is off topic,
back to the topic pawnzischeme. chess-nazis.
Perhaps ponzi/pawnzi is just a play on words?

I have not noticed any shortage of funding this year compared to earlier. Many school programs simply have parents paying. I do not need to be "skimming as much money as possible from the market," because I am retired and pensioned. I want to make the chess "pie" larger for everyone rather than get someone else's slice. That is how to think of the economy. Yes, politicians (no party noted) need to be elected over and over to have the same job. They will promise the voters someone else's slice. If they lose, they either get appointed jobs or work for businesses or other nations. To be more on the thread's topic, politicians often call their opponents terms such as Nazis.

Stimilus packags sounds kinky to me, does it come with one of those inflatable gals ?
Since "Nazi" came from the first two letters of the first two syllables of NAtionalsoZIalismus, the German word for National Socialist, I see no reason to make the stereotype of that to games. Whatever, since this forum is used for irony, I will try to come up with something else to say.
To use a better term, I think that simply "coward" will do the job.
