It's GDP per Capita is higher than All former Eastern Block Countries including the Big Boy Russia, and China. A literacy rte of over 90% and a Life expectancy of 76. The US is 78. So do you find humor when mexico complains about being a poor country, when it is obvious it is much better off than many other Latin American nations and many other nations across the globe.

Some notorious/infamous prisoners have been granted press interviews, write books from within prison, and have movies and books made about them?
Do they get monetary gain from these deals?

I have been watching several police shows which show segments on bait cars and how they catch so called car thieves. My issue is this: for the most part they always show minorities stealing these cars and very rarely show these cars in a non minority areas. Are the police perpetuating a certain stigma/ stereotype that causes the media to take advantage of? Right is right and wrong is wrong. But is the portrayal of such actions equal or fair for that matter?

I am very sympathetic towards REALrape victims. It is a horrible crime & demands swift and equal justice no matter what a person's race. I can't help but be mystified, however, at the Duke Lacrosse rape case. In Durham's efforts to not look in ANY way racist, they rushed forward to prosecute these white boys. They didn't want to appear not to believe this black girl even after irrefutible DNA evidence cleared the lacrosse players. Then, it was the prosecutor, the city government, the state who ALL took a hit legally & in the media. That prosecutor certainly made horrible mistakes but this one case will ruin his entire life. Those boys, although exonerated, will have the word "rape" attached to them for the rest of their lives. Their families drug through the mud. And for what? Why is NO ONE, not the media, and suprisingly, not even the boys...focusing on prosecuting the GIRL who obviously LIED?! Can we as a society afford to allow anyone to yell rape & get away with it?

The Right can't ask the PRESS or the LEFT to do this because they'd say the Conservatives were manipulating the Iraqis!
Even though I've offered this suggestion many times in YA neither the Press, the Presidential canidates, nor the YA liberals have picked up on it. Being upset at Bush seems more important than offering up solutions.

THIS IS NOT A POLITICAL QUESTION!!! I do not want to know your opinion on immigration. Just FACTS and law. I am not indicating any opinion in this question.
I just want to know the specific law about coming across the border without documentation. Walking in without permission. Is that a crime? When people say "illegal immigrants", what exactly is illegal? Which specific law states the appropriate and inappropriate method of entering this country, and what are the penalties for breaking such law(s)?

Who else is excited about the new law? I am a non-smoker and I think its about time that we are protected. Even though places were previously divided into non-smoking and smoking, you were still breathing in the toxic chemicals. I am glad that smoking is not allowed in resturants now. I take pride in my health.

Especially if you do not know all of the facts? They attacked George W. Bush's military record and the results turned out to be false! Then of course John Kerry was attacked with the swift boat ads. Why? Can we not do better than this? I mean Any man or woman who has served bravely in the military deserves some credit! John Kerry was a Vietnam vet! He has seen more combat than most of us may never see! And I don't know the entire detail on the "phony soldier" deal. But I am cautious when it comes to questioning someone's military record! I think if someone is gonna make such accusations; they better have the ammunition to back up their claim! If not, then its just gonna prove that neither the media, nor politicians can be trusted! This is the behavior you would expect to see from school children! Not grown men!

According to this article (http://www.toptechnews.com/story.xhtml?story_id=0110010E6SH4);
Jammie Thomas, a 30-year-old Minnesota mother accused of piracy by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), has to pay them $220,000 in damages.
I was wondering how just an independant person like that could pay that sort of. I mean RIAA was asking for up to 3.9 MILLION dollars. How does that work? If the damages were that amount... would this woman have to go to prison? Because I'm pretty sure you couldn't take out a loan for $3.9 million dollars and pay it off.

...that they don't want to see the poor not receiving any Healthcare help before their wealthier middle class citizens do...as the reason...why Bush vetoed the recent change Congress tried to make for healthcare to help the people of this country?...And that a republican representative said with a smile...that they jus don't want the poor neglected...and that if THEY wanted too...healthcare could be passed today...CAN you IMAGINE who these people are with a statement like that?Isn't it sad that they would deny anyone and then divide them into groups as they make U.S. an excuse not to focus on this countries needs?
ESPECIALLY SAD when they enjoy all the best healthcare for their families?
