I googled determinism. Your description doesn't match what I read. I don't particularly want to argue the merits of philosophy any more than Christianity. They are both the products of people pulling ideas out of their respective asses. Drugs are bad mkay? The great philosopher Mr Mackey said that. I will say that on its face determism as google defined it is indeed idiotic. Suicide by definition would disprove this bullshit. No free will huh?
Most unemployed Americans would love to work at just about any job that an American company needs filled. Unfortunately, they can't afford the plane ticket to China.
