Paypal froze my account after a month of doing business. They said I was in violation of their terms of use policies (I sell/produce adult bdsm videos)regarding Mature Content, which is not allowed. However, I searched PayPal shops and found at least one shop that sells adult videos and a few that cater to fetishwear (like adult baby/sissy clothing, etc). They froze my account and said I cannot get my money for 180 days. How can this be legal? There was no fraud involved or anything like that. What can I do to get my money?

Ronnie Biggs and others of his ilk...when they become ill in prison why is it that we should show any compassion or pity for these people?..Did they show any when they were fit and healthy and going about their illegal business?
Why do we make folk hero's of this scum!

GOP gave us tax cuts which helps
GOP now will claim the economy is great with Stock Market breaking the 12000 barrier.
BUT
What impact has inflation had on everything that a Middle Class American buys?
Gasoline, Health Insurance costs and coverage, Groceries are a majority of outgoing expenses in our households. How does the increase in these prices compare to what we are saving with the GOP tax cuts? Why doesn't anyone address this?

And what about exporting jobs overseas? If these big companies take away our jobs , how do they expect us to buy their products?

If companies pay low wages to illegal immigrants and refuse to pay competitive wages to legal citizens, how do they expect us to buy their products?

Do you think it is worth an individuals time to be passionate about Politics & Government in this day and age. There is a ever increasing level of detachment between the vote eligible public and the government of Britain which doesn't appear to be closing.

How could we let the voters know that Politics is still relevant to them and that they should be more involved?

The U.S military and C.G have the most medals of any western country. In commonwealth country's you only get medals for deployments, bravery or long or (extremely) distinguished service. while in the u.s navy people seem to get a couple of medals a year. A Vice admiral in the Australian Navy may have three ribbon bars (rows) of medals on his tunic. While a U.S admiral cant even stand up straight because the medals are dragging him down. Im not being malicious or anything.
But for all the u.s soldiers out there, do they really mean anything?

Margaret Beckett, Britain's Foreign Minister, admits the Iraq invasion may be viewed as a disaster by historians. Eminent historians argue Iraqis would be better off under Saddam. 655,000 Iraqis dead, 2798 US servicemen killed and more than 20,000 wounded; 119 British soldiers killed, 4,000 evacuated from Iraq as either wounded or sick. Each of these figures means a family traumatised by the sight of a loved one mutilated or grief stricken by death.

There appears to be no way out. If we abandon the Iraqis the country will descend into a fully blown civil war with Sunni muslims fighting Shia's, with the Kruds battling for autonomy, with former Baathists seeking to restore the status quo when Saddam ran the country, and terrorists from around the world stirring up the flames of conflict.

Was the invasion a horrendous mistake?
