How many questions do we need today about the downgrade of the US credit rating?

Is it right for people to just copy others ideas so they can get the points for posting questions?

Do something about duplicate questions

Now that this has been bumped, I have another thought. If SH had an IGNORE list feature and dropped the blocking, they could merge threads without concern for who is blocked. Rather than have to vet every question, I think it would be practical to simply do a cursory culling of obviously redundant topics, missing some maybe but improving things significantly. I suppose none of this really works without removing the points chase that has become SH recently.

The paid staff shouldn't get paid for "appropriating" other folks questions. ;-)

Some have people blocked and others do not so you get to answer the other if blocked by the other !!!

I consider that legitimate duplication. Thanks.

I am so tired of deleting the same question over and over again.
