Could it be that when the wealthy invest, the taxes on their gains really do help the economy and feed the government?

They don't care that they are damaging the U.S.. They only care about helping their home country.

Details: ok, for instance, you get BMG or some junk mail over and over again and it gets irritating right? So, what if one was to mail back some of the stuff they sent to you in the pre-paid envelope to them? Is that illegal? I mean, in a far fetched idea one could rationalize that it is a way they could re-use the material that you found useless and to mail it to someone else. ;o)

Is there any hope in finding a cure for diseases? Why would the drug companies want to cure an illness when there is no money in it? If we find cures for illnesses then the big phamaceutical companies that create drugs to ease our pain and help deal with the disease would go bankrupt. Finding cures for disease would greatly hurt our economy by eliminating the need for the multi billion dollar drug industry. Are people even working on finding cures? If there is no money in finding a cure and only money in creating drugs to help with the pain, etc. then do companies even fund the research to find a cure? What if a cure has been found but they won't tell us b/c it would ruin our economy? I ask these questions b/c I am so frustrated! My loved one may have Juvenile Rhematoid Arthritis and I feel so helpless. Are they ever going to find a cure? Is anyone even working on curing this or just alleviating the pain with drugs? I think we are all reing lied to.

As long as it does not break any laws over equal rights?

I have owned a business, a Pizza Place, and I turned down people before becasue of how they where dressed (baggy clothes or showing too much), or how they acted (gangster style.

Business SHOULD have the right to refuse service if they wish too, in order to keep the apperence of a nice place.

What do you think?

It is Kelli’s 17th Birthday party. During the party, Kelli has a few too many drinks. Don is at the party. He has lived next door to Kelli for years, they grew up together. Don recently has a new job at a car sale yard. He gets paid on a commission basis, but things have been a bit slow recently. Kelli, feeling very happy, talks to Don, telling him how much she likes the red ‘Xo3’ he has in the car sale. Don seizes the opportunity, he pulls out a standard purchase contract (which he just happens to have on him) and signs up Kelli to buy her new car on the spot.

The next morning Don turns up with Kelli’s ‘Xo3’. Kelli is not quite so happy this morning. She did not realise that Don had been serious and would never have signed the paper if she had known that. Kelli does not want to part with the money she has saved to go to University and so refuses the car.

Why is it bad for the US to want to deport illegals and not conform to their ideas, yet when mexico does it it seems to be ok. Just look at their policy on illegal immigration and their policy towards legal immigrants.

Most democracies today hold elections on the weekend or on a holiday. In the United States, the elections are on Tuesday and are not a holiday. How would this system bias voting, and how is that bias similar to that found in Roman voting?

I need help with my World Studies assignment. I would really appreciate your help. Thanks!

Mexico deports poor Guatemalans, Salvadorans, Hondurans who just want to work hard and help their poor families. They deport more people than the US! But the racist Mexicans will not give them legal status.

The poor Central Americans sneak across the Mexican border so they can do the jobs that the fat lazy Mexicans won't do, like clean their houses, cook their food and take care of their babies.

It is WAY more common for people to have servants in Mexico than in the US. Even middle class women in Mexico are too lazy to clean their own houses.

Mexicans are racist against their southern neighbors because they are dark-skinned indians. Racism against Indians in Mexico is very widespread. Mexicans will not admit that they are immigrants too, they descended from the Spaniards and continue to exploit the poor indians. Mexico even stole land from Guatemala. Mexico is rich in comparison to Central America, why can't they share? Why are Mexicans so racist?

Why cant America ever win a war outright?. They could not win Vietnam so pulled out and didnt achieve anything of any worth and ended up looking humiliated and dejected. In World War 2 they could not stop the Japanese so nuked them, being the easy option i wonder what America would do if a nation nuked America for not behaving?. In every circumstance America has never really finished a war as its incapable. And now they are mired in two wars and without any possibility of pullout in sight, humiliation yet again for America.

When will they realise nobody is ever going to surrender to US foreign policy and dictation. I would just love to see them pick a fight with Russia and that would be the end of the US as we know it. But they wont because they only pick on small fry and then still lose. So what chance do they have with Russia. They will be in Iraq for years now dying for no reason but Israel demands and Middle Eastern influence. Tell the dead Americans that, who's war is it?

I really want people to stop saying that our military is all volunteer because it is bogus. Our brave men and women go our there and do their duty, and our politicians need to stop shafting them. Stand beside the people who stood beside you Mr. Bush. Stop screwing around! Bring them home.
