I've been kicked off of two answers for speaking my mind, as well as the truth about Islam. Apperently it offended someone. So what? I thought we lived in a free country.

War is an economical process in which high technology products are produced without the need of a market for them as they are produced to be destroyed. The best aspect of the process is that such production is financed by funds of the People, that considers themselves benefited by the process, and therefore accepts it without reservations.

Besides, the process develops technologies might can be later sold with good profits to the same society that financed their development.

Therefore, battle activities are a promoter of the development of Humanity and their Global Technical Enterprises.

Are their benefits larger than their destructive aspects? Or is Humanity in a process of diminishing welfare?

Wow the president really was a divider!

They have all mostly all voted for the Iraq war
They have all continued to fund the war and refuse to bring the troops home
They have all voted to strip us of our constitutional rights with laws like the Patriot Act, and the John Warner Defense Authorization Act
They have pretty much allowed the president to spy on citizens
They have mostly agreed that we should torture
They have pretty much all agreed that we should not impeach or even censure the (p)resident and vice (p)resident
They all pretty much agree that black box voting is perfectly acceptable
They have all pretty much agreed that campaign finance fraud and cronyism is perfectly acceptable
They have all pretty much agreed that all of our jobs should go to China and that China can export poisonous goods Americans

My husband is in the US Army Special Forces and spent 8 month in Afghanistan, last year. He came back to the US april 2007, and started again his training and jumping exercices
(he's an Airborne). After a jump in august, he seriously injured his back. The army just send him to a chiropractor for 2 month,
no X-Ray taken, nothing! Mid-September, he could barely walk, and finally the army send him for X-Ray, and the doctor found out that his back was broken!! He was supposed to be deployed to Afghanistan again mid-October, but was denied due to his injury. Now, his team deployed and he's staying at the Fort. We decided to start the medical discharge process since he's not able to do any PT (physical training), or deployement etc...He talked to his doctor about this and been told that basically he couldnt begin the proccess until after he healed and then go through a 3 month rehab after that. Does anyone know if this is accurate? Why wait till he's healed? Any advices what to do? Thx

First of all, income inequality has kept growing since the 1960s. It has accelerated under Bush. A higher Gini coefficient means more inequality.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gini_coefficient
http://www.census.gov/hhes/www/income/histinc/h04.html

Two, the poverty rate has climbed from 11.3% in 2000 to 12.3% in 2006. Previously, the poverty rate had gone down every year but the first under Clinton.
http://www.census.gov/hhes/www/poverty/histpov/hstpov2.html

Three, inflation adjusted median household income is still lower then it was in 2000. It went from $49,163 (down for four years to $47,323 ) to $48,201 in 2006.
http://www.census.gov/hhes/www/income/histinc/h06ar.html

The lowest one fifth saw their inflation adjusted income drop from $20,981 in 2000 to $20,035 in 2006. The top one fifth saw their inflation adjusted income rise from $170,026 to $174,012.

Let's say you are in a flat with some one you have just met in a club, you're both very drunk and have been flirting all night long and they have invited you up for 'coffee'. They excuse themselves to go and slip into 'something a little more comfortable' and return wearing something which makes you take a big gulp. You go in for the kill and kiss them passionately; they are kissing you back...... your hands wander and they murmur something while breathing heavily and appearing to enjoy. The evening goes its course and you wake in the morning to find the police there and your one night stand claiming they don't remember consenting but are sure they would have said 'no' at some point.

A husband is lying in bed feeling in the mood and tries it on with his wife, she refuses but he persists until she eventually sighs and snaps"oh go on if you must!", so he does.

A girlfriend is orally pleasing her fella, he decides he wants more than that and escalates things, after she says she.....

do it as well. and we all know that it has gone on since the beginning of time. During bush's 00 and 04 campaigns. he stacked his q&a sessions entirely. not even allowing people with an opposing view. There is even a memorandum that has been released showing exactly the extent that he went to to keep them out of the arenas or town hall meetings. And even expelled disinters illegally during rallies while president.

I've been researching on this topic and I've been trying to find out some "resolutions" made. But all I could find was that some of the provisions expired or were voted to expire.

A friend was hired on a job. She went for training today to manage a cash advance store, when she got there to train the store was a wreck. I mean nasty wreck, dirty floors, spider webs, filthy bathroom, fridge with food that was left in it. As soon as she walked in the door the owner said well start cleaning. The girl has a history of executive manangement and that's why she took the job. She said she did a lil sweeping but felft very uncomfortable. One of the regional managers went to get supplies and told her to get a bucket and mop the floor. She told the RM that she was not comfortable cleaning the store since it was sooooo nasty. The RM told her if she didn't want to help clean then she could leave. Well she left. The owner himselft stated the store smelt like Sh**. Now the RM dismissed her... can she do anything about that?? I told her she prob. could because if you are coming to be "Trained" and your made to particpate in that, has to be something wrong with that.

My SDI ends in 2 weeks. My boss continued to pay me for 3 weeks after I became ill. I did not ask for this. I explained to her that I did not need the money since I was applying for disability benefits and I am fortunate enough to have an emergency savings account to support myself. Now she wants me to return to work when she's ready since she has to figure out MY schedule after 10 years of service (I have always worked an 8 hr shift 5 days a week) AND the schedule of a “temp” she wants to keep, and my 2 co-workers. I know by staying home an additional 3 weeks it would stop any kind of payback to her which makes since. Can any of this jeopardize my employment? What are my rights?

I live in NY and for over 30 years I have used my middle and last names on every contract and piece of paper I have signed (even got my passport and non-driver's I.D. issued that way). After all this time I want to change my S.S. card so that my name matches the name I've been using for the past three decades because my new job won't list, pay or issue insurance cards as middle/last, but as first/last because that's what's on my S.S. card (my other jobs had no problem using my middle/last). The S.S. office tells me I have to get a court order switching my first/middle names before they can change my card information. Isn't my given middle name also my legal name? It's not like the name I'm asking them to list on the card is one that I picked out of a book because I liked it better than the name I was given. Help, anyone? Thanks.
