I mean just look at the top 100 universities in the world. More than half of the universities there are American. Sure we have a lot of illiterate people but just think about it we have a population of 300+ million I mean do you think its easy to support 300+ million people and make sure all of them has a proper education? And also a big number of the modern technology that is being used today was invented by Americans or people in the United States.
i.e.
The Internet
The Airplane
Electricity
The Telephone
The Microwave (everyone uses this)
The Laser
The Minicomputer AKA Desktop computers
Space Program
Cervical Cancer Vaccine
etc.
These are just some of the inventions we have created that have benefited humanity in so many ways. So how the hell can we be called stupid when no one else even cam close to what we have achieved? I mean you can create all of this thru just dumb luck.

for the Bible to replace the US Constitution? Also, include any other reasons you can think of. I have a girl in my class who thinks that it would solve all the worlds problems....and there is one main reason i would never happen...if you get that i'll give the first person 10 points. But I would love to hear other reasons that it would not work.

I don't smoke or drink, and when I do drink is for just fun with a friend family! Drinking is more dangerous then smoking marijuana, but I don't understand why smoking it is illegal? That's stupid!

I heard that in the State of Ohio if you aren't old enough to legally drink (21) .. but you marry someone who is 21(or older) .. then you can legally drink in the State.
Is that true?

...government is going completely UNTRUTHFUL!!! She has stated to me personally that she does not know who to believe. Is this a world wide phenomenau??? Sounds a lot like the US of A! I personally vote for Ron Paul, because of his incredable HONESTY & 100% perfect voting record!!! All aside, has "politicking" now gone "global" to where one politician is a like to another, internationally??? If so, why???

how do I report someone who is self-employed and makes 100k per month but is only paying 10% of their income for tax return? They also only paid cash to all employees. How do I report this employer? What is the process? Do I need to testify if I am one of the employee?

With its trading surplus, China has expand its military to an extent far exceeding the needs for its self-defense. China has sold missiles to North Korea, Iran, and Venezuela. Do you know how many missiles are aiming at us?

Thus, please stop buying Chinese made products.

I want this permanent position hands down. It's job that instead of working 8-5, it's actually a going to be graveyard. I have a 2nd job that I work 2 nights a week during those hours and that extra money helps me to pay rent. I'm already in the process of being permanent but when I was told of my position I was told I'd be working days. How can I fairly and nicely discuss my situation with my big boss so that she understands that I want this position but need to change the hours a little.Should I quit my 2nd job and get something in the daytime? I need this job, it's secure, and it pays well. I just don't want them to think I'm not interested because I am very interested. Was telling one of the bosses. I told one of my bosses the situation, and that I just moved..so I need to keep the hours of my 2nd job, but I don't want them to think I'm not making them the priority. Please help me. I have to report tommorow.

murder is horrible and sometimes rape goes with it, yet rape alone(which also is an atrocious crime) does not seem as insidious as murder.

We were plaintiffs in a lawsuit and the case was settled. A portion of the monies were paid to us upfront. The second portion of the settlement was a Consent Judgment signed by the defendant whereby they also agreed by consent to pay a set sum of money every year for the next 7 years with interest. We are concerned whether or not the defendant will pay early next year or years thereafter. Is there any thing we can do to protect our future interests before they default or only after?

What measures can be taken, and when, once there is a consent judgment in our favor? We are currently tracking all their public information and they haven't left town and still have the same job, but don't know about financial assets. Should we be doing something now in advance of an expected default?
