Politics & Government - 20 June 2006

Where can I find help to pay my my medical bill? I have had an accident,needed orthopedic surgury,and now I must pay.
I know that I am lucky to even get treatment (and very good treatment by the way)without to paying cash or having insurance,ect.
But the bill is extremely high. I think they must inflate the bill of people such as myself to offset the "losses" incured by treating medcaid/medicare (insured) patients...if you know anything about this topic,then will understand that.

I am not being cheap.I honesty dont have the money.
I had no choice in the matter.
If anyone knows of Government programs or agencies that can help please respond. Either to help me pay it , or to investigate the outrageously high costs.
Thank you.

Let me explain. I was approached to do an impromtou interview, (basically put on the spot), the person told me they were with a reputable magazine that I have worked for in the past. 2 weeks later I find out they were actually from a trashy magazine that I would NEVER speak to!! They just wrote what I told them and nothing was constrewed, but my publicist was pissed!! It's never good to talk to these magazines. Chances are they will use that interview for the next 6months and take what I said out of context eventually. Anyways, I guess I just want to know, can I sue them for fraud or something? My lawyer is on holidays and I don't want to be represented by anyone else, just want some advice. P.S, not looking for money here, I have plenty of my own. Just think they shouldn't be allowed to do this!!

It's not a matter of confidentiality, illegals do not have those rights. If schools were required to report children who did not have proper credentials, or whose parents could not provide proper credentials, this might discourage some illegals from crossing the border.

I'm illegal in American, killed 4 people, raped a child, robbed a liquor store, beat up an old lady, stole someone’s SS#, got caught with heroin, and was convicted of all these allegations.

Americans had the nerve to put me in jail with no TV or telephone, and they only feed me three square meals a day. I AM BEING ABUSED IN THIS MANNER WHICH IS DENYING ME MY BASIC HUMAN RIGHTS as a criminal.

PLEASE!

Will you call the ACLU and a Democrat on my behalf? I can only have 1 call a day, and I have to call my dealer.

They need the money-they did it before. Just a few thousand more areas near our line.

Would we want it?

For example, a judge orders someone to stand on their head for a week. What is the legal term for such an impossible order that can't be carried out?

What i beleive is that terrorism is not primarily aimed in inflicting a mass amt. of casualties. What the real focus is, is changing the minds of the American public. So what we call terrorism is indeed "Psychological warfare" How is that possible? Well, hijack some planes fly them into buildings and kill thousands of people with the goal of causing fear, confusion, and chaos. This does NOT work with the U.S. we do not demand change after an attack on the contrary we unite and demand action. What leads Americans to demand change is the war we wage against the terrorist and nations abroad. Americans want a fast and easy way out. When we take to long to accomplish a goal we begin to loose faith and confidence. This is what thrives the American public to demand a change. Terrorism IS a threat to the U.S. and its interest and it WILL continue to be a theat

I think we should make all moral laws based on the voters of each state and county it must be put on the ballot and voted for...not by lawyers in federal court...
for example:
gay marriage
death penalty
assisted suicide
abortion
etc...
let the people decide....

Most republicans are extremist and watch the chaos they have created on Fox news with a bucket of popcorn and a drink and they are actually enjoying the war deaths and wounded people. How Can I as a responsible liberal that loves America show republicans that FREEDOM is a Good thing and The Bill of Rights is a gift from our forefathers and change their extremist and anti american sentiment that they entertain?

I am an american woman born here freely, however i chose to have children with a man from Mexico, and due to this immigration debate, I have noticed when I am without my children, I am respected and treated differently than when they are with me. I have heard comments like "she is on their side" What is going on here? I never really noticed the ignorance until now.

I was watching the NBA tonight..only one European playing with the other players. Does this mean the NBA is racist against European Americans? It does look that way. I think the way to fix it would be to have some type of affirmative action against this racist system that will allow more Europeans play. Some will say that the majority (African Americans) are better players..I can't stand racist comments like that.
Wev are all the same, African American are NO better at basketball than Europeans..it's the same..so why the bias?
