Who would say it's the worst?

Mass producing vegetables and fruits may be "bad" but agriculture itself is what enable us as a race to stop being nomadic.

Some say that's a bad thing. And if you look at the things hunter-gatherer societies had/have, it can be hard to argue with them.

Aside from high mortality rates and low life expectancies, living as a Bushman certainly has its benefits...

Except that we only see the most successful hunter-gatherers. I have heard it said that farming came from failures at hunting and gathering.

Thank you.

Well the losers might say it is the worst invention ever... but the winners of history would disagree.

I'm not so sure about that. Both sides lose in a war. Often times, its been very hard to tell the true winner from the loser unless you are a leader.

stoopid comment

I would go with non alcoholic beer and decaf coffee...or maybe calculator digital watches. Those are pretty dumb too.

CDO's.

Zune.

But Girl Scout Cookies are delicious.

Yes, I used to love Sees candy.

We get snackers ... $15 for just over a pound of cheese filled pretzel sticks or pepperoni pizza snackers, $14 for a soy candle... etc.

Nothing wrong with CDO's. They are simply a way to arbitage interest rates. I think credit default swaps are worse, especially since you don't have to hold the security you are insuring against default. It is like a million people buying a life insurance policy on one individual that they don't even know. When that person dies, a million profit and the insurance provider would probably fail.

You're right, the way CDO's were managed (including credit default swaps, bogus ratings, etc) is far worse than simply the invention of the original objects.

So yeah, I'm changing my answer to, "credit default swaps".
