Does anyone think England is arrogant for calling itself 'Great Britain'?

The stock market was created to give people the means of supporting things they believed in, and not through charity, but by mutual reward. For example, if you believed a new medical procedure could be helpful, you would invest. If it succeeded, not only would it make the world better, it would also make you wealthier. In that way, you help yourself and the world simultaneously. Unfortunately, like with all noble things, humanity has managed to deteriorate the stock market into something deplorable - another get-rich-quick casino scheme. People no longer invest because they believe in the product, but because they hope the investment will make them rich.

Sometimes, when you're watching the NFL, you think football people are not so stupid. Then, you watch a game of college football. Why does the NFL keep doing these dumb booth review things? Why not just send every play up to a booth of replay officials, and have them review every single play whatsoever as quickly as it can possibly be done, with one official per camera-angle, to ensure every single play is 100% accurate, and the determination is made as quickly as it can? Really, the reason instant replay takes so long, is because the teams have to watch the replay, decide if they want to challenge, throw the red flag, talk to the officials, then the official has to individually watch the replays from every little angle, and finally make a determination. Throughout the entire course of the game, not that many plays are questionable. If every case went upstairs to a hyper-efficient replay group, it would ensure every down is accurately officiated, and almost no game delays ever occur.
