I had a work related injury, I went on disability, I was suppose to receive 60% of my pay but THEY admitted it was an error on their end which resulted in 100% pay for me. I don't have that money anymore (paid off bills, medical, rent, etc..) So other than losing my job, what are the repercussions if I refuse to pay OR just can't pay??
Serious answers please. Thank you

I am confused:

I thought we we were looking for bin laden after 9/11. Then war with afganistan and taliban. Then we were looking for weapons of mass destruction. (found none) Then for Sadam and his sons. After that a top ten list of Iraq people we never heard of or cannot pronounce. It seems we are going to Iran next. Why can't we help the middle east settle down instead of providing it with more weapons? In the end we are all global citizens. Meanwhile people from all sides are dieing.

in 2003, yes 3 years ago I had signed up for an AOL trial account for 2 months, when I attempted to cancel this account, the representative that I spoke to offered me a free month (to help me reconsider about canceling), and when I called to cancel that month the representative offered me 1 free month, then when I called to cancel that, the representative offered me 2 free months, and I finally got tired of it and canceled it.

Now 3 years later, I get bill from a collection agency saying that I owe 95.60 for 4 months of service (the free term, so if they charge me they had lied, and false advertised to me), and are threating to put a negative mark on my credit for it. Anyway, after dealing with AOL they told me they had some technical problems with billing in 2003, but I'm still responsible for the money, even though they don't have my 3 year old records, and will HAVE to send away for them which they might be able to do. I told them to do this.

Now...who do I talk to to file a lawsuit?

One of the things I have learned in my life is that getting angry, raising your voice, shouting obscenities, name calling, and being too emotional only hurts the individual acting this way. No one is going to change anyone’s mind using the tactics just mentioned. If you approach someone in a civil, calm, and respectful manner, the individual will more than likely listen to you. If not, then THEY have a problem. Rants and raves automatically throw up a wall. This goes for both legals and illegals.

Therefore, if we discuss things void of emotion, we are more likely to listen to the other point of view.

Can we agree to be civil here? You know, THAT is a sign of maturity and stability.

If the majority of the voters want something to be done, shouldn't elected officials do it? Assuming it is a legal undertaking.
Why do elected officials do the bidding of vocal minorities and not the silent majorities?

This is not a trick question. If you think about it, can you identify a defining feature? Or sets of features?

If you have can you A: tell me about the experience. B: Tell me how it made you feel (you can skip this one) C: Tell me how it made you feel towards the type of people who profiled you. and D: tell me if you told others about the experience and if you did what did you say?. If you'd feel more comfortable you could e-mail me at glenfort@hotmail.com. This is for a paper on racial profiling.

Note: Case your wondering if you've seen this before, this is the second time I've posted this question. I'm trying to get some new answers.

Do you really think that any business will eat the cost of an increased minimum wage?
Or do you not understand that those costs will be passed on to the consumer (that would be you)?
Are you ready to pay more for a Big Mac, groceries, gas?
