We should be treated as such and not treated as if we are different because we are not. Why is it that there is such an un-even distrubution of wealth? Everyone should be paid the same because not everyone has equal oppertunities to succeed. Some people were born in poverty and have very little chance of getting out of the cycle. Instead of paying some selfish person extra money when we know he is going to use his money to buy a bunch of useless crap and isn't going to help those less fortunate than him, we should give an equal amount to everyone. Why would people spend years in college for a career they aren't passionate about because of the money? I doubt few people would do that, so they wouldn't mind sharing the wealth with everyone else, such that everyone else is, in our standards, middle-class.

My supervisor came up with this one last week after going to a funeral and noticing how many people in their early to mid sixties were buried in the graveyard.

Anyways, here's her theory:
In order to solve the problem of the baby boomers going on social security and not having enough workers paying in, the government, instead of raising taxes or cutting benefits, is going to start killing people off as they enter their retirement years. This is why so many politicians are pushing for universal health care. They're going to use the experimental drug programs and government managed health care to kill people off.

No I'm not really serious about this. I was just wondering if anyone else had heard this. Either way I thought it would be a fun conspiracy to spread. Any thoughts? Any real (or not) information that we can use to expand this would be appreciated. Mostly I just want to see if my supervisor really did invent a new conspiracy theory or if someone beat her to it.

Considering her record she seems to waffle as much as flip-flop Kerry.
-Denouncing Walmart as evil. Yet she was the First Woman board member for Walmart (1898-1992)
-From 1982 to 1992 she chaired the Arkansas Educational Standards Committee and during this time period Arkansas went from being ranked in the mid 30's to being #49 in the Nation.
-She voted to Go to war with Iraq but want's to pull out and surrender before anythings finished.
-She' already stated she wants to raise Taxes.

Why would anyone vote for her? Seriously!!!

He has some HUGE changes he is proposing, but even if you agree with him 100%, do Ron Paul supporters really believe he can get all this approved in Congress?

Wouldn't this be a basis for termination?

You can also discuss situations where you know of someone else who has done this.

I enlisted into the army's delayed entry program about three months ago. After training like crazy, losing twenty pounds, and giving my final goodbyes to family, i returned to M.E.P.S to ship out on October 25th (the date on the contract). I was sent home because my recruiters never performed a P.T. test with me, which is required to go to the reception battalion. I was also told by my recruiters that i woudn't need a debit card or checks and that an account and routing number would suffice. This turned out to be false which is another reason i was sent home. I called my recruiter from M.E.P.S and he said there would be someone at the recruiter station back home that would run my P.T. test for me and no one was there when i showed up at the agreed time and place. Now, my recruiter wont take my phone calls. My question is, where do i stand with my contract? Is it still valid? How long before i can begin a new contract with a different branch? Am i in trouble since i never shipped?

"In June, a fourth grade class from Portland Maine's East End Community School issued a dire climate report: "Global warming is a huge pending global disaster" read the elementary school kids' report according to an article in the Portland Press Herald on June 14, 2007. Remember, these are fourth graders issuing a dire global warming report. (LINK)

And this agenda of indoctrination and fear aimed at children is having an impact.

Nine year old Alyssa Luz-Ricca was quoted in the Washington Post on April 16, 2007 as saying:

"I worry about [global warming] because I don't want to die." (LINK)

The same article explained: "Psychologists say they're seeing an increasing number of young patients preoccupied by a climactic Armageddon." "

2 out of every 10 girls and 1 out every 10 boys are sexualy abused by the end of their 13th year. Only 41% of child sexual abuse is reported each year. 1/3 of women in prison was abuse sexualy as a child. Who ever gets aroused by little children are sick perves that deserve to die.

Can a county attorney be sued for using wrong judgement on accepting a case with there was no basis too it. There will be a jury trial at the end of this month with a pretty sure outcome of not guilty. I want to sue for all my legal fees, time off from work, false arrest, and pain and suffering. Does anyone know of any state where this has happened in? This whole judicial system is a racket. They false arrest people, set them up with lawyers that cost a arm and leg. So if you are proven innocent you have to pay through a nose for a attorney or if you are found guilty, you have court cost and all sorts of fees. Any advice would be appreciated.

i have moved further into being liberal thanks to all the opposition i see that is the opposite of wwjd

the hateful remarks, lame excuses, total evasion of the question with relevant content have made me see the far right for what they really are

the more thumbs down i get, i realize that i must be doing something right

i do think a part of that is that i have a female avatar
the male avatars don't get beaten up as badly

i guess the far-right hates women too

what is ur experience?
