I hate walfare. I think that its not fair that we have to pay taxes for all of these people that can work but don't want to. I understand if someone is in a bad situation but all these "shines" (lol :) ) take advantage! Agree not not? Correct me if I'm wrong.

Is him saying that he wants to provide healthacre just for poor kids really a reason that other other children rich, middle class or poor shoudl be provided healthcare?

http://www.cnn.com/2007/POLITICS/10/03/bush.veto/index.html#cnnSTCVideo
Bush exercised the veto at 10 a.m. ET before leaving the White House for a trip to Lancaster, Pennsylvania, to discuss the federal budget and taxes.

Speaking in Pennsylvania, Bush said he vetoed the bill because it was a step toward "federalizing" medicine and inappropriately expanded the program beyond its focus on helping poor children.

"I believe in private medicine, not the federal government running the health care system. I do want Republicans and Democrats to come together to support a bill that focuses on the poorer children," the president said, adding the government's policy should be to help people find private insurance. Watch Bush explain his veto »

Democrats quickly took to the floors of the Senate and House of Representatives to condemn the veto of the bill that received bipartisan support.

"I think that this is probably the most inexplicable veto in the history

I was born in Japan but I retained by CHINESE citizenship. My parents had worker's visa in Japan then we moved to Canada, where we got our green cards. After that we moved to the US and got the US green cards.

Now I'm a senior in high school and I'm wondering about getting a US citizenship. Should I? What are the pros and cons? Any sources you can recommend or people I can discuss this with?

Crowd swipes dying man's groceries

MESA, Ariz., Oct. 3 (UPI) -- The sight of an old man being hit by a truck in Arizona touched off a feeding frenzy among witnesses who allegedly stole the dying victim's groceries.

Not only were the man's groceries taken, but the only person who tried to help him also had his own bags taken.

Mesa police told KPHO-TV in nearby Phoenix that the scavengers could face theft charges if they are eventually tracked down.

The elderly victim was waiting for a bus Tuesday night when a pickup truck swerved off the road and plowed into the stop. The man was sent flying as were his bags of groceries.

As the truck sped off with a white plastic bag flapping on its grill, witnesses began grabbing whatever scattered food they could get their hands on. Boro Mitrovich, who was himself nearly struck, said he ran to help the man and had his bag disappear as well.

"One minute it was on the ground, the next minute it was gone," Mitrovich told KPHO.

A COUPLE OF EXAMPLES:

I post evidence proving the vast majority of scientific organizations engaged in climatic, geologic, and meteorologic research support man made global warming.

They say oh, they're all blatantly lying and doing it for the money OR they say that these people are part of the socialist conspiracy to destroy capitalism.

I post evidence in the form of real GDP, inflation adjusted median income, tax revenue, poverty rates, etc, showing the economy growing at a faster rate under keynesians then supply siders.

Cons say, oh well I don't trust statistics. I don't believe anything from the Department of Treasury, Census, Bureau of Economic Analyses, or even Whitehouse.org because they're all controlled by liberals and cannot be trusted.

I have saved actual posts by cons saying this. I will bring them up if needed.

I live in Kentucky. I make $80,000 a year and my two children have health insurance. But, I was thinking that it would be so cool if y'all would pool your money together and pay for little Suzie and Johnnie's health insurance. I mean - it's for the children . . . the little children!
