I personally believe that there are thousands of orphans in the world that if a couple, gay or straight, wants to adopt them and care for them, why is it a big deal? Is it not better having overcrowded orphanages?

paying taxes is against the US constitution and it is illegal.
if paying tax was legal, it would be against the constitution and illegal.

so my question: why are you illegal. paying taxes is a crime. there is no law, and it is against the constitution.

if you have paid taxes in your US life, you are guilty and you are a criminal...

if you are a responsible US citizen, you must obey to the US constitution and ST0P paying taxes.

so i have these cousins and they're like 4 or 5 years older than me as is my older brother, but when they used to come and visit a few years ago i obviously was pretty annoying and wanted to hang out with them all the time. but now that i'm 15 and they're like 19, i feel like we can share the same feelings and hang out without me being annoying. i wanna show them that i'm totally not that little girl anymore, and that over the visit, they're gonna start wanting to hang out with me more than eachother (especially my girl cousin who just turned 19 cause she's awesome).

do it. Me personally I think they are possed by the devil. Whe God is agianst murder, why would these wretched parents murder their children in cold blood and say God made it do it. What a pathetic come back. And these are so called chrisitans. So if there is any real chrisitans out there how do you feel about it. It makes me sick. I just heard from a friend that this christian was going to pray to God to kill him. Just becasue he is wiccan. What a joke. I am a christian who is looking up and going up in my walk.I have had 2 abortions and that was before I became a christian and God did not tell me to do it. It was my decission. I just wished these people would stop proclaiming to be christians, they give us a bad name.

I'm single, no kids, and 38 years old. The cut off age is 40. I have a debt (school loans and credit cards) totalling to about $20,000. I'm currently making less than 25 grand a year and it's not cutting it. These agents start at $35 g's a year. Just curious about what the good folks of America thought.

I'm a nursing student and I work at a hospital close to my home. Lately I've been having trouble getting into work on time (or sometimes at all). My boss just called me to go into her office and requested that I bring a union rep with me. I think they're going to fire me..

Do I qualify for unemployment? I've been working there part time for 2.5 years. at the moment I'm working as a student extern at another hospital for the summer so it's a temporary position. Would this interfere with collecting? what about school? I go to school part time (but full time hours) and won't be able to look for another job.. would this affect my ability to collect?
i'm so scared because I can't afford to not have a job and I can't afford to work during school....
btw - I live and work in new jersey.

I wear 11's and I can almost never find dress shoes that fit - when I do it's a very very limited selection and they are usually ugly or painful. I have no problem finding casual shoes in 11's (particularly tennis shoes), but I struggle so much with dress shoes. Does anybody have advice on stores which carry AFFORDABLE shoes in larger sizes? (I live in a big city so name anything and hopefully we'll have it!)
