So many people are in debt because of medical bills. Doctors make so much money but treat those without a dime, perscribing this and ordering that. 20% to 40% of the average Americans paycheck is taken for healthcare yet we get reemed on deductibles and payouts. Healthcare is free in Canada, so whats our problem? My theory is the greedy healthcare corporations and doctors. What do you think?

You were wrong. But then, I guess it was just wishful thinking.

is it cos if your overheard in public you could be arrested for being a traitor,or are u scared incase of getting intimidated by the police and hveing made false allegation against you.after all it america thats the cause of several conflicts in the world and for backing corrupt governemnts in countries where they hve a lot of oil or mineral wealth.the people in those countires are suffering,they hve no say are opressed and poor.a good example was thier backing of the shah or iran(a dictator) president mr and mrs marcos of the phillipines who squandered the public money into u.s bank accounts,the saudis( a regime), the new mexican president you got into power by fraduant means backed by the u.s and many many more every in every continent.if a country has oil or mineral wealth the u.s has its greedy paws in thier politics and thier people are oppressed.so when americans say they hve done good in the world, like helping the poor..they don't look at the wealth they take from the poor.

In the next election for Presidential office, what would happen if nobody went to the polls to vote. Since our current President can not run again, how would this affect our government? Would the office of President be eliminated or would Congress just put someone in charge.

I think Bush doesnt care about democracy in iraq, because Saudi Arabia is a fascist country, there is no democracy in Saudi Arabia.(Religions: Muslim 100% !) They hate other religions, they help terrorists.

Why didnt he invade this fascist country?
oil...or......???

We need an initiative to ban abortions and we must do as much as we can for the unborn. We need to protect the unborn. Once their born though, they are on their own. Well, until they reach military age.

I understand from a National Geographic podcast that the people of North Korea are convinced by propoganda that they are a war with the USA. Obviously there cannot be any change of government if the people are convinced that their leader and the army are great heroes in the "conflict".

it seems alot of liberals are angry with what bush did. how did he harm you personally? from bush, I received a job with an engineering company in iraq that paid $300,000/year. I managed to pay off my $30,000 debt, and now I live in europe, where even now I pay less taxes than Americans. I figure I better not return, since the left will most likely be reelected. I dont want democrats like Realist and Mark to steal my money with their high taxes. My life was made better by bush, what about you?

Good news People of the USA!!! Great News!! The stock market is at an all time high. It will soon break 12000 because consumer/investor confidence is very high. Interest rates remain very low which means more and more average Americans can afford a home. Employment is approaching the highest levels in over 7 years.

Any one besides me want to rejoice? Probably not. Most folks these days can't stand good news!!

Hi, I've gotten mixed views about prepaid legal. So far, both sides of the fence are equal so I'd like to present this question one more time to those of you out there who know what prepaid is and have had experience with it, whether you've been an associate or you've had the service for yourself or have even heard about it thru others. Should I get involved in this company as an associate? I don't want to put anyone through any unwanted hardships if I offer this program to people. Thanks.

Many years ago I worked as a correctional officer in Louisiana and occasionally I was stopped for speeding (less than 10 miles over speed limit) and when the officer found out that I was a correctional officer I was advised to slow down and be careful. I now work as a correctional officer in North Carolina and although I have not been stopped for speeding here, I have been told by co-workers that correctional officers were not allowed any special considerations. What are the views of your department?
