Politics & Government - 21 September 2007

I work for a chinese food place and they pay me $6 under the counter, there are bugs and cockroaches everywhere and they have been found in the food. I have a feeling the people working in the kitchen are here in the U.S. illegally and they get paid $1 an hour!! We're not allowd to claim our tips they go to the cooks, and if we do they accuse us of stealing. The minimum wage in NH is $6.50, as of september first and we're not seeing anything of it (my co-worker and i). We're giving our 2 weeks tomorrow but want to tell the police about these horrid conditions we've been working in. Is there any way we could get in trouble for working under the table, we're both minors and scared of the out come. Thanks for reading.

I do my best to help the pro war people. Everytime I see a car with "I support he troops" decal "OR" a "I support President Bush" decal. I walk up to them and say a big thank you for the support. Then I request them to sign up their adult children for the military and go to Iraq and fight. The smile of the war supporter turns into a look of drinking lemon juice. Why do the nice pro war people turn against me? I served. Why can't they?

I served on a superior court civil jury trial last year, for most of october.

I just got summoned for jury duty for a criminal trial. I thought if you served on a superior court trial, you had two years before you were called again? But no, they denied my request for deferral.

Should I say one of my good pals is the chief of police (true)? Or just go and see what happens?? I'm in California, btw. What's the law? maybe someone at the court is mistaken.

The President spoke up against it. The Senate censured it. But Move On members did not apologize for the slam against General Petraous and his Iraq Report. Do you think the Liberal organization went too far? If so, why didn't the President and the Senate censure the Swift Boat Ads. Both Ads concern military personnel. If John Kerry's reputation less important than that of General Petraous? Or should these hateful Ads be banned altogether?

my children were abducted/kidnapped by State Officials, nobody in our system wants to correct the matter I've been
all the way to the top (Mr. Bush ) himself with documented
proof. Lawyers, Judges (State/Federal ) congressmen, Sen
ators, Representatives, State and Federal prosecutors, the
FBI. Proof of the crimes out in front of their faces and they
all claim it was a mistake. It's a mistake on their part but one
of us civilians commit the same act, it's a crime. sounds like
a double-standard of law or bosshog politics. laws intended
to protect the people are ignored. Reason I know this is I am
a 24-year self motivated studier of law, and I'm not wrong. one
lawyer has already agreed, but no action of correcting the wrong, no justice

Outsourcing to poorer countries for their cheap labor.Which has also closed many of their smaller companies.Here is a quote
FTA can hinder the growth of local firms and reduce their ability to compete or survive against large foreign firms, and this can result in the end in less competition. “Thus it would be prudent for developing countries to be cautious and not to rush into North-South bilateral or regional FTAs,” concludes UNCTAD

Do you agree with this quote?

Dr. King for example wanted us to be equal, treated the same with the same oppurtunities and not only that but he wanted us to unite and to get along.

Malcolm X and Huey Newton were a little more extreme in their approach but they still faught for problems that were really there.

Al and Jesse make a mochery of the whole civil rights movement and everything these revolutionaries of the past stood for.


I thought the whole point of civil rights is to being the people together, not keep tearing them apart but maybe I'm wrong?

I know theres alot of people that hate it but why? Listen to my story i was brought here when i was 2 illegaly and didnt know untill i was about 15-16. Ive studied here and worked here all my life. Im still illegal but go to college and have paid my taxes since i was 18 now im 21. Why dont people suppourt it. Ive heard people say that it grants us free college? wtf its a lie all it does is give us the right to do something with the degree we have earned. Its not my fault i was brought here when i was 2 and i do blame my parents!! Blaming them is not going to give me legal status here. I wish i could have entered legally here but i didnt have that choice. Most people who qualify for the dream act are in the same case as i am. We are all high school graduates and attending or waiting to attend college. We cant really plan our future because what do we do after we earn a degree?? We cant use it at a company. Dream act does have an age limit of 30. You need a h.s. diploma to qualify.

Since Blackwater runs OPFOR tactics to createchaos in Iraq. And now we caught them red handed. Will you continue to stand by Bush and give $3 billion a week to Halliburton, Blackwater, Lockheed,etc. etc. etc. ?

I mean really folks (and that includes you republicans) lets face it.....this guy has made America the both the most feared and the biggest laughing stock of any nation. When I say most feared I don't mean in a good way...we are feared because our leader is incompetant to lead a world power. I am holding my breath till January 2009 and honestly I don't have a preference republican or democrat....lets just get this bufoon off the world stage and fast!
