We tell individuals that they would serve 80% of the maximum for strike one, double the max for strike two and 25 to life for three. Is this accurate?

Who should foot the bill? All whites, or just the ones that are descendents of slave owners? And should hispanics and asians always have thier taxes increased to pay the reparations?

Someone told me that they now require an actual HS Diploma and that a GED was no longer good enough. I am a veteran, and my 16 yo son is interested in the military.

I'm 21 and out on parole/probation at the moment after doing time for robbery. None of my family had been in trouble before so they took it badly and think I'm going to end up in prison for years. When I got out I wanted to go straight and get a job, take care of my kid, all the usual stuff but after having my first legal drink I got done for DUI and they are trying to charge me with other stuff to so I know I'm probably going back to jail for that and breaking my parole conditions. I'm out a month now but am back in court next week.

When I was trying to get a job they found out about my past and wouldn't hire me. I keep on getting stick and being called an ex-con, jailbird all that and I'm not being allowed forget that I've been in jail.

I feel like if you've made mistakes people think you can't change and won't give you a chance. You get more hassle from cops too who won't give you a break.

What is up with its inability to do what is right . Take Exxon who has received billions in tax credits over the years and still has not paid for the damage the Valdez did to the Alaskan coast line and fisheries . You think that would be simple to address . It is after all only about money who gets it and who does not . Is anyone besides me unhappy about the share you have been getting of the pie . I have more then most and still am upset about how things are run . If you notice I do little work and post often on answers . Retired at 42 with plenty of money . I still see that opportunity comes from taking advantage of others and to a greater extent the people by the government and this could change if we wanted it to . I am not a student and do not rely on anyone else for my living . I did not win a lottery or a big bet . Hard work and sound investments .
But inflation is driven up when property, wages ,and interest rates rise .
I was not as irresponsible as the government .

I look at questions through a humanitarian view and get booed for what I consider the truth. Just how many conservatives are in this section who are warmongering against liberalism? Really, who is more moralistic?

We been told that the terrorists attacked us on 911 because our polices in the Middleast and our blind support to Israel --and that Israel's slaughtering their children on daily basises with our weapons. Bside our continious block to all UN resolutions aganist Israel crimes.

We went to Iraq because it was major threat to israel and to disable Saddam from launching rockets towords Israel-----Sharon preasured and pushed hard for this war for months --even they gave us bad intel. to encourage us to go, and of course their bodies from our media helped too.
Now Israel is pushing harder than ever --samething towords Iran---and pictured iran's president as some nazi----as if the guy said 100 of times that he had nothing aganist jews and that he is aganist the Zionist regime in Israel and there is no more proof more than current 127000 jews that live in iran from 1000s of years.
So why do we have to pay with our blood for them----why we have to take on their enmies one by one ??

they employ if amnesty goes through? Same question applies for the construction industry as well. Or will they just revert back to sneaking in illegal immigrants once again? Of course wouldn't it be much easier to just do away with borders all together and establish a new type of government?

It is our first child and although he should be back by the time the baby arrives, he (and I) feels like he is missing it. I send him pictures of my growing belly and he has a sonogram picture with him. What else will make him feel involved and a part of it too? Also, do you think this will affect his relation with the baby?
