I signed up for Neopets Premium a while back. My account had got banned. I figured that they'd stop billing but they haven't. For about a year, they have been billing me $5 dollars a month. They won't let you contact them on their help page. How can I get them to stop?

America is alot more corrupt than other countries, good countries. Some of the news channels are only telling lies to americans about the Iraq war, it's propaganda, the whole "freedom thing" when will americans see this. 60% of americans are against the war, i wonder how many it would be if they all knew what's really going on.

The press plays a vital role in our democracy, shaping citizens’ understanding of social and political issues and functioning as gatekeepers through which issues, people, and events must pass. No matter what you care about — gun rights or abortion rights, the environment or economics — the media influence the perceptions of citizens and policymakers, affecting the policies that touch us all. Media must not be considered just another business: they are special institutions in our society. Information is the lifeblood of democracy — and when viewpoints are cut off and ideas cannot find an outlet, our democracy suffers.

Traditional media, telecommunications and cable are converging, all becoming firmly linked to the Internet. The ways we share information, the ways we receive information, and the ways this information is produced are all changing rapidly. In the halls of power — from corporate boardrooms to the corridors of the Capitol — policies are being rewritten to prepare for this new era.


Big Media, Big Cable and Big Telecom are some of the strongest and fiercest lobbies in Washington, and, indeed, across the country. One of the most profitable industries and one on which politicians depend to make their views heard, it is difficult to battle such clout. Media outlets unwilling to report on their parent company’s interests and broader issues of media reform put more obstacles in the way of public interest advocates.

BIG MEDIA has a huge effect on who wins presidential primaries. the major television news outlets are viewed by most americans, which gives them the power to manipulate the masses' opinions on candidates that would help them by relaxing laws on media ownership. They also have the power to essentially blacklist candidates who would be a threat to them by passing new laws that would be more in line with the constitution. So you can see how a candidate that values the constitution would be a major threat to them.

if Dr. Ron Paul got the amount of attention that Obama, hilary, edwards, romney, mccain & guiliani get, i am sure that he would win the election by an enormous number of votes. If the average american knew who he was, and what he is all about, he would be a huge threat to hillary's presidential campaign. Ron paul is EXTREMELY popular among the people that know who he is because he truly represents the american people, not the establishment. Ron Paul has a voting record in congress that demonstrates that he will not be pushed into voting for any unconstitutional legislation, such as the patriot act, or the real id act, or the torture bill. He is 1 of only 6 republicans that voted against the war. Ron Paul has also been named "the taxpayers best friend."

Many web sites and forums have had to shut down, due to the overwhelming number of people writing messages of support for Ron Paul. a MySpace page titled "Opinion Polling" posted the following note this week: "Temporarily shut down due to Ron Paul. will be back eventually." A source said that the page's owners shut it down because Paul supporters "invaded the place."

here is a website called techPresident.com that has an ongoing internet poll displayed on it.
http://techpresident.com/scrape_plot/myspace

the poll shows that Ron Paul is the top republican candidate among internet users.
Yet, the big media companies IGNORE Ron Paul on their 24 hour news networks. Every other story is about which celebrity is endorsing barak obama, or what color dress Hillary wore last week at a fundraiser. How did this happen? WHat can be done about it? i am thinking maybe the fairness doctrine should be applied to the big cable news networks, even though i am a libertan.



here is an article (which i used some quotes from) that explains this further:
(http://ronpaul.rescue-us.org/2007/03/02/ron-paul-support-on-the-internets-continues-to-get-noticed.aspx)
--------------------------




Rep. Ron Paul, R-Texas, who has explored a presidential run, doesn't register very high in the national polls featuring 2008 presidential candidates (1 percent, tops). But there's one place that he simply rules: the Internet.

Fans of the libertarian have stormed the Web -- in ways both good and bad -- to show their support. Over at TechPresident.com -- a Web site that tracks candidates' "friends" on the popular social networking site MySpace.com -- Paul is tops for Republicans, with 3,107 "friends" (Mitt Romney is second with 1,785).

But elsewhere, the voraciousness of Paul's supporters has sparked the ire of others. The Web site 2008HorseRace.com, which features an ongoing poll for candidates, issued this notice on Feb. 23: "Ron Paul has been suspended for two weeks because of repeated use of mob intimidation tactics and multiple threats made by Ron Paul supporters against racetrack operators, racetrack officials and racetrack sponsors." PajamasMedia.com removed Ron Paul from its presidential polls after it was discovered that someone had rigged the poll system in his favor. It has since implemented a rule that it will only include candidates polling at 1 percent or more in credible national news polls.

And a MySpace page titled "Opinion Polling" posted the following note this week: "Temporarily shut down due to Ron Paul will be back eventually." A source said that the page's owners shut it down because Paul supporters "invaded the place."

Paul's exploratory committee spokesman Kent Snyder thinks he knows why Paul's supporters are so gung-ho for their guy. "One of the reasons that Dr. Paul is getting a lot of cyber support is because he voted against regulating the Internet," Snyder told Yeas & Nays.

An Orange County newspaper article did a report on how many illegals are actually passport overstayers from Canada and Europe.
http://www.ocregister.com/ocregister/news/nationworld/article_1087193.php

Another showed how Canadians can illegally overstay and belend into the White population.

The Pro-Borders groups seem unconcerned when the illegal person is White and the border in question is Canada's 4,000-mile border.

How can we round up these overstayer illegals, deport them, and show eveyone that we are not targeting only Mexicans?

Does Bush think terrorists are stupid enough to place a bomb in their bag. Most bombs are attached to the body.
Also the subway has thousands of openings that terrorists can get thru with no detection. Does Bush think manning only the busy openings is going to stop a terrorist?

In the future are we headed towards a more socialist society, liberal democracy or republic, conservative? Is it changing? I have this gut instinct that we are becoming more liberal and one day we will be the most chill country in the world.

There are white Hispanics, black Hispanics, indian Hispanics, asian Hispanics, mulatto Hispanics, mestizo Hispanics, zambo Hispanics, etc.

White Hispanics hate all the other groups. Most Hispanics in the USA who entered legally are white Hispanics. Most of the illegals are indian, mestizo, mulatto, black or zambo Hispanics.

White Hispanics hate the other Hispanics even in their country of origin. That's why most legal Hispanics hate illegal Hispanics: they bring their racial hared from their countries.

I do. Bush killed over 75 million people and countless pets (see peta.org for details). He lied us into a war and tricked the democrats into agreeing with him. He invented a weather machine to kill registered democrat voters who were black in New Orleans. He's cooperating with the aliens to allow mind control. He withholds sex from Karl Rove unless he gives a continual blast of brilliant and evil schemes. Other neocons/nazis aside, Is his evil greater than all the good in the world?

I remember once in grade 10 history class, my teacher was talking to me about how immigrants are blamed sometimes. It's because when people who have been living in this country for a long time see other immigrants getting good jobs they get mad at immigrants. I wonder if any of you agree with this statement?
