Theirs some new laws going in to effect soon. However, some of them arent really fixing to many things. So what are some laws that should be passed that make sense?.

A partner or ex-partner and Domestic Violence kills more women than cancer (of a certain age bracket).

This is a shokcing statistic, what also surprises me is projects to address domestic abuse still sit largely in criminal justice arenas and there is little, if any preventative support work undertaken. (Meaning people wait until a serious crime has been committed before they can access projects such as IDAP)

Does this surprise you?

(sources IDAP - Integrated Domestic Abuse Programme, based on the Deluth model, The National Probation Service)

For that matter, why don't most people own passports, especially Americans? I believe only 20% of US citizens for example own passports. I seems like a document you would definitely want to have just in case you have the need or have the opportunity to travel. I'd say its definitely the most important easily gained document next to ones drivers license, yet nobody ever seems to bother actually acquiring one.

Methanphetamine is a problem in this country. Parents seen the effect it has had on our children, and thats when our country chose to start something that they would cause this country to begin it's downfall. From this "war" they stopped making ephedrine in all of the United States. The only place that still makes the stuff is Mexico and Canada. Now the Canadians are peaceful people, and I really cant see them trying to flood our country with this drug that was created to help with our sinuses, such as Sudafed. Now our other neighbor I mentioned just so happens to be one that everyone knows is corrupted clear down to the officals. Money can get you out of jail, your enemies eliminated, and all the power you can afford. Now what resulted from this was the samething happening in our "land of the free, and home of the brave". Starting with the people over at customs getting a paycheck on the side for allowing certain cars to just be passed by without even a second glance.

My partner is on minimum wage, we have a baby son and I'm not working due to childcare issues.

We really need some help - we are struggling so badly for money (we have £2 left to last the week on!), we need to buy things for the baby and also my partner is desperately trying to find a way to pay for his training expenses so he can hopefully get out of min wage work and into something better paid.

We're not eligible for the limited help the Government offer - its all for single mums and the unemployed. We can't get a Career Development loan as we have a poor credit rating. The ILA is only £100 for someone who is working (even if low paid) and his training costs would be £500.

I feel ashamed to be reduced to this - I am educated but have never found my degree helped me get a job and we are getting desperate.

Which charities might be prepared to help a young couple (not a single mum) who are working and not scrounging but are just not being given a break?

The success of Asian Americans as a group has occurred despite severe discrimination in the previous century, such as, prior to the 1950s, being stereotyped as cheap, uneducated laborers. In the late 1800s and early 1900s, many Americans feared that the western part of the US would be overrun by the "Yellow Peril," prompting initiatives to reduce immigration from Asia, and during World War II thousands of ethnic Japanese citizens were held in "internment camps" in the USA

Constituting only 4% of the U.S. population in 2000, Asian Americans have exceeded 15 to 20% of some of America's most prestigious private universities including the Ivy League, Stanford University, MIT, Johns Hopkins, Carnegie Mellon, etc

As of 2000, about 44% of Asian Americans ages 25 or above held a bachelor's degree or higher , as compared to 24% of the whole population

The troops continue to donate more to Ron Paul than any other Republican. However, this quarter, he beat all of his rivals combined. Do the Neo-Cons and the Ron Paul haters support the troops? Afterall, it is pretty clear who our troops want to be their Commander-in-Chief.
