Politics & Government - 4 March 2007

I just cant decide how trustworthy a country that provided 11(?) of the 9/11 hijackers is. I've heard/read/saw that they, the Saudi royal family, private investors, etc., own (invested in) over 7% of American bussinesses. If I'm wrong on that number then please excuse my ignorance. I just think this is a viable question. What do you (the smart guys you are), think would happen if all that money was pulled out? And if it's not "viable".......pretend it is, its just Yahoo answers....

Does the capitolist syestem just rename slavery to employment ?



I am talking about a heavily capitolist society - that creates hordes of poor and a few rich with a slim but grateful middle class that dare not get out of line .....


Have we gone from emerging from asiatic chaos to going back into it (the discription above to the extreme)

We all know the USA is the greatest, most powerful, and most free nation on Earth. What do you folks think more specifically are the reasons for its greatness, and for why no other country can even hope to compare to us????

I mean what's up with that. This guy wants to kill US soldiers, he is sympathetic with Iran and meets regularly and hides there too. Should we withdraw support to al-Maliki unless the Iraqis get rid of that wannabe Iranian traitor in their midst ?

Those cop movies where the cops dab cocaine on the tip of their tongues to see if it's real coke or not, I heard that they don't do that in real life. Is that true, if so, how do they tell if it's coke or not?

Capitolists create a class syestem where people are seen as a price tag and this defines thier worth in society - Similar to fuedalisim in that there are three distinct persons - The lower who does menial labour - replaceable and of no worth -(lifter of things) The middle of some worth useful to orginise the lower classes and report back to the upper The upper those who direct policy and reap huge rewards by useing others and creating needs and promoting mass consumerisim of the lower and middle
Facists the above but meaner a lot meaner

Socialists An attempt to equalise the worth of persons regaurdless of the economic power of the idividual. Putting more stock in the rights and need of the group as opposed to the individual. Attempts to limit the distance betwen the upper and lower groups power and economic life through syestemic governmental controls.

Communisim the above but with no difference and therefore no incentives except to crime .

It's now well established that George W. Bush never showed up for National Guard duty for a period of approximately one year, possibly more, in 1972-1973. Despite all the talk about "honor and dignity," President Bush has apparently flushed his down the toilet. President Bush went AWOL!! Cheney himself also received 5 deferments! Both of these men are “Chicken Hawks.”

We believe that if we choose a particular party to run the government, we would have made a difference. But what if the different parties are controlled by the same entity?

Sheeple People who refuse to accept the fact that the U.S. Government had their hand in the Terror Attacks of 911 are just plain ignorant. It's impossible for Jet fuel or Kerosene to melt iron...LOOK AT THE PERIODIC TABLE OF ELEMENTS. Also if the floors collapsed causing a chain reaction it would have taken well over 90 seconds for the buildings to come down. They came down at free fall speed....9 seconds. There is no logical argument here. Explosives were pre-planted in the building. Case closed! Some idiots will argue that the fires were raging hot inferno’s...however if that was the case then why were there people standing in the holes where the planes impacted waving for help? Their clothes weren’t even burnt. Here we are talking about the biggest crime scene in the history of the United States...and what did Guilani do?
He scooped up all the evidence and got rid of it as fast as he possibly could. Sent overseas to be recycled? I doubt it...my guess is they dumped it all in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean.

I have to write a bill for a government class. I have to write it as if I were Ralph Hall, a republican congressman representing the 4th district of texas. (very conservative.. though moderately democratic at the same time)Therefore, it has to be relevant to the district an dsomething that he would obviously agree with. I have to state where the funding would come from, the purpose of the bill, and general information as to why this is a good bill to pass.
