Politics & Government - 19 November 2006

I’ve noticed more and more people opposed to the war daily.*

I’ve noticed more and more people who think abortion should not be legal.*

I’ve noticed more people fighting against illegal immigration then ever before.*

I’m not “A+” in politics. I know what’s going on--but to a certain degree. There seem to be a lot more people on Y!A and just general encounters who know more then me--which is great.

Passion is great--but why do people complain but not change? Why do people who have ideas not present them? What was it about Vietnam that finally pushed people over the edge? What is it about the movements going on in the 60s that people don’t feel today? I don’t think it’s a lack of passion but I can’t quite pin-point it. What do you think?

*or vise versa--they are just examples

Say there's a draft, and the army needs more soldiers. Can you volunteer to join the navy?

At least here in Canada, we end up having several choices as a leader...any party can form and try to get seats in our government. (leader of the party with the most seats gets to be prime minister) I always vote NDP, which is the third largest party in Canada.
Why do american people only get TWO choices? How democratic is that?

I have not recieved my deposit back from my landlord, it has been over 30 days (I believe california law is 21 days).

I made several attempts to get in touch with the landlord, I was succesful once, and she said I would get it within the week, it has now been another couple weeks, and none of my calls or messages have been answered or returned.

I have all the reciepts for the rent and deposit, and since she didnt send me a itemized statement for why she kept the deposit I guess if I go to small claims court that is no defense for her. The apartment was actually in better condition when I left, then when I moved in.

So my question is do I go to my local civil court and file a lawsuit? I have never been through this before any answers/advice would be appreciated.

BTW I live in Central, Ca

when you receive a corrective action form from work and it says terminated on oct26,2006 but you still worked for 5 days then after 5 days you get put on suspension pending an investigation then you are fired on the 2nd keep in mind you arent seeing this corrective action form till after you have been fired so you only know about the suspension and then being terminated so when the employer sends you your terminated papers it has you as being terminated long before you were put on suspension how does that work?

When a government makes it more attractive to ride in the wagon than pull it, those pulling get frustrated and discouraged, while the wagon load gets heavier.

"There will never be a free and enlightened State until the State comes to recognize the individual as a higher and independent power, from which all its own power and authority are derived, and treats him accordingly."
- Henry David Thoreau, "Civil Disobedience" (1849)

golden rule defination is like where the meaning of words in a statute if strictly applied would lead to an absurd result and there is an alternative interpretation which avoids the absurdity, the courts are entitled to choose that latter and assume that parliament did not intend the absurdity.

I think it's a great idea as long as the families of the President and Congress go first. We'd hardly ever go to war if that were the case.
