I think when half the world is starving it is obscene the amount of money paid to Footballers, Actors etc for just doing their jobs.
My answer to world poverty would be that everyone in the world, that is in paid employment, has to give 1 weeks wages to charity every year.
While my salary would mean not a very large donation I am sure the contributions of many celebrities, sportsmen, actors etc. would be substantial enough to make a huge difference in the fight against hunger & starvation in the world.
What do you think?
Would everyone contribute?

I have a large family of Hispanic illegals living across the street. There are about 5 adults and 7 children there everyday, and on weekends the number triples. Their cars line the streets and they sit out in their front yard, drinking and partying all weekend. My property values are dropping with each passing day!

This question is for the righteous right, the doctor Phil wanna be.Do you lie to your children and tell them Santa Claus exist? I think its a bad practice reaaly..

Most people tell their Kids that Santa Claus exist , little people make the toys and also help fabricate them..



The truth is sanata claus is a bif commercial plot and a very expensive one on the back of working parents whom are trying to make the ends meet. Some even goes as to put the bills on credit cards Corporation makes enormous profits during holidays..

The truth is tha the little people making the toys are usually kids working for a dollar a day, being exploited like an animal or slave so the Wal-mart owne can make profit..

The elves are the kids mothers who barely win enough money to buy a meal..

At one point of time the kid grow and realize that he had been lied to all his life and that now iit is ok to lie..

Do you lie about Santa Claus?

I t seems like Boulder has great ideals, and the USA federal government has made choices that unreconscilably different from these. wouldn't it be better to withdraw support and form an independant state?

When I was seventeen I signed up for the national guard. It was what I wanted to do but family and friends influenced me to drop out. I went online and found a site that gave a sample letter on how to get discharged from the army as a conscientious objector. I sent it in even before leaving for bootcamp and they discharged me immediately. Now I'm 22 and I want to reenlist for all the right reasons but this RE-4 code is preventing me from serving. How can I change it? Who do I have to write to change my conscientious objector status?

Documents Expose Sept. 11 Fraud
Report: Thefts Not Prosecuted After Government Discovered FBI Misdeeds


(Page 2 of 2)
NEW YORK, June 16, 2006

The disaster specialist was proud to dispatch replacement boots from the Long Island warehouse of a company paid by the government to manage rescue supplies donated by Americans. Then came the moment that crushed Christopherson's faith.

His employer dispatched trucks to the warehouse and loaded hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of donated bottled water, clothes, tools and generators to be moved to Minnesota in a plot to sell some for profit, according to government records and interviews.

The government also didn't prosecute any of its employees for taking souvenirs, claiming it lacked a policy prohibiting such thefts.

Ultimately, the FBI donated the stolen goods found at KEI's warehouse to the Salvation Army.

Joe Friedberg, a lawyer who represented a KEI executive, dismissed the Sept. 11 thefts as "much ado about not

Why is it hard for people to understand the difference between killing and murder.

I just had a retard email me through Yahoo Questions and told me that George Bush really is a mass murderer because he has ordered airstrikes that have killed "thousands" of innocent civillians.

Well, this is war, we're trying to root out insurgents. I believe the President is acting in good faith when he orders airstrikes that those killed will be insurgents or other enemy combatants. I highly doubt he has the intent to murder civilians.

In particular, representing Chinese. I am fluent in Mandarin. My Chinese friends have urged me to consider immigration law. I have been doing taxes for years and am thinking about switching. What groundwork or basics should one follow? Does one need to live/work in a huge city? Is there any money in it?

Sincere advice appreciated, thanks.
