Politics & Government - 17 October 2006

Question for the rich and/or conservatives: under a liberal government, is it better to be a slave of liberals by letting them tax the hell out of you, make you feel guilty for being rich, punish you for being rich, spending your own money, claiming to have worked for your money, and having a different opinion, OR is it better to sacrifice patriotism and leave the oppressive taxation and anti-success mentality of a liberal government and move to another country with less taxes? whats there to be patriotic about if the country HATES you for being successful and/or having a different opinion?

Why is it that girls carelessly having sex without protection is what causes abortion?

Why is it that we have known more about where babies come from than in all of human history and no matterr how much you tell people to put a bag on it, take their birth control pills right, and show them where their genitals and reproductive organs are located, they still can't get it through their heads that the consequences are pregnancy and STD's?

How many more decades of Birth Contol promotion and STD awareness will finally bring down the abortion rate significantly?

And if it's true that about a million abortions happen every year, it's also true that they are having sex unprotected from contracting STD's.
Women who get abortions are more likely to have STD's and therefore, spread STD's.
Abortion is nothing people should be advocating.
It encourages an unhealthy life for everyone.

Why have so many Americans eagerly given up on their democratic freedoms?

The Bush Administration has consistently written in new laws and amendments to abolish your freedoms, yet people still support them. Your right to protections under habeas corpus have been destroyed. You can be wiretapped and tortured and kept in prison forever without trial. Voting machines are rigged so that elections can be handed over to whomever bought the machines.

Some people allow operatives and sympathizers on this board to convince that all of this is OK. Don't they know that all the Administration has to do is to implement these laws and your freedoms will be over in 2007? Why are people going on with their lives as if none of this isn't happening?

Potential solution to North Korea Nuke issue What do you think?

My understanding is that N.K. was dissappointed with test results ,so will test again. My suggestion is to coordinate the drop of a decent size nuke on their test site, with their testing.Giving the impression that they blew themselves up.It will also make them happy too as they will believe their test results vastly exceeded their expectations.

If a landlord negligently allows a 3rd party to enter my rental and property is stolen, who do I sue?

When a tenant rents a property, part of what they are purchasing is an expectation of a reasonable degree of privacy. Even the landlord himself must give reasonable notice to enter the premises. In this case, my landlord granted access to my rental to a third party and much of my personal belongings were stolen. Do I sue the landlord or the thief?

Life In The UK Test..What would happen if we were to complain?

When my hubby went for the test the first time, we were early(so we waited in the coffee shop until the appointed time) but he waited around 45 mins or more for the test to start. The 2nd time we were late by just a few mins after being caught in traffic but they sent him away because he was late. I assumed that the first occasion was just a one off so i told him not to say anything but he just went for the test again, he was on time and again they started the test around 45 mins late. He hasnt passed yet and im unsure it would be a good idea to complain in case it affects his citizenship application. I dont think its right and maybe most people wouldnt say anything so as not to make trouble but im angry, i dont think they should have refused to let him sit the test the 2nd time. What do you think?

is affirmative action racist?

who agrees that affirmative action is reverse racism? if a law is made to require a business to hire on the basis of the color of one's skin, is that not discrimination? if you want to accuse me of using the race card, just look at democrats. is it right that a black doctor who was educated at the Somalian Medical Institute gets a job at John Hopkins instead of a white guy who was educated at Emory or Mount Sinai JUST because of a discrimination law?

What has changed in the Democrats in Congress since 1994?

Besides the obvious of not holding a majority after having done so for close to 50 years.

With 80% of the Dems that were in the Senate still being there today, what has changed with their policies that had them voted out in 1994?

Do they still stand for raising taxes?
Do they still want to take away the 2nd amendment?
Do they still have a socialist agenda?
Are they still seeking to take the means of production away from the people as in healthcare?
Sounds like nothing has changed.

They say they are for choice.
Will they give us the choice on where to send our children to school?
Will they give us the choice on how to invest our OWN retirement savings?
It doesn't look like they are for choice.

As far as I can tell NOTHING HAS CHANGED WITH THE DEMOCRATS IN CONGRESS SINCE THEY LOST. Why would we want to give them POWER again?

For the party of change they sure seem to stay the same.
