What do you think of this?

To tackle this problem, all I believe it requires is that people are 'verified' to have given correct registration information about themselves. This can surely be checked without infringing privacy rights?

Of course this would only apply to registration information, anything else is subject to the user's own choices.

For example, I am 23 years old. I'm fairly sure that under present conditions I could register with most websites as a teenager. This is inherently wrong, and I believe it should be impossible.

Also I see quite often that youngsters claim to be older, which can cause a lot of problems.

Just yesterday, I received 4 friend requests from users claiming to be between the ages of 20 and 24. I checked on the profiles, and it turned out to be one user, aged 13, promoting a 'live webcam' site. Of course, I was not impressed or amused in any way, and promptly rejected these friend requests

Congressman Jackson, a purported black belt, challenges a smaller man to a fight outside the chambers. So he is an classless bully just like his father.
So do demcrats like to pick on weaker, smaller, defenseless opponents.

Iraq is understandable... but Afghanistan? Even the former director of the CIA (who voiced his anti-Bush administration and anti-Iraq war feelings in an interview recently) is a proponent of this war. We went in to capture terrorists, and that's what we did. So why do I still hear people who think this war was wrong?

We all know that we have plenty of stuff, lots of stuff to fill our houses, garages and workspaces. But now that corporations have so much control over our lives and have socialy engineered our lives to become machines for consumption and our government for their own promotion, has the quality of our lives been sacrificed at the alter of materialism?

Do the Dems NOW have a NEW buzz word - INFRASTRUCTURE - to promote PROPER Federal spending, instead of their usual money wasting give-away projects?
Or do they STILL hate everything that really HELPS the U.S. economy?

Mr Bush has only one concern in this whole matter, he wants the "Guest Worker Program" that he promised the energy Industry. Mr. Bush is willing to sign any bill congress comes up with as long as it includes his guest worker program.
Already in Ky lawmakers are working toward changing a law that requires certified underground coalminers to be able to speak english. Coal mining is already a dangerous occupation and communication is essential to the health and safety of the miners.
Already in Mexico there are recruiters signing up young Mexican men to come work in Ky coal mines. The coal industry justifies this by saying that Appalachian men and women no longer have the same work ethics they once had. This may be true, they are no longer willing to kill themselve for the coal industry, They are no longer willing to practice unsafe methods to increase profits, they are no longer willing to go home empty handed after giving a lifetime to the coal industry..
We all know that undocumented workers are a problem but its a problem that can be resolved if Dems and Reps work together. Why not let cogress come up with a solution for those already here before we pass a law to bring more. If the "Guest Worker Program> has merit it can be brought up for debate at a later time. Us solve the current problem before we create another

If private insurance companies became non-profit, would they help to insure everyone at a reasonable rate? It seems like the insurance biz is a bit of a racket, anyway...

I was recently Pro-life.

But now I'm pro-choice.

Everybody has a choice. to live or to kill themselves. Babies are the same except they have no voice to say "kill Me". So I am here to protect their choice to live. Atleast until they can say kill me and mean it. Then it is their choice.

But until they are born, we must defend their choice to live. To see life out of the womb. Do you agree?
