I live among and around many people from Mexico. I've never asked them if they were legal or not. I simply know that they work extremely hard. I've seen them have babies and pay the hospitals in cash. I watch their children grow and their parents sacrifice, working day and night to ensure their children's future. They are workers of every sort and merchants to each other. Most of us wouldn't buy the goods they sell in their little markets. I also grew up with them on the border and saw exactly the same thing. I've worked along side them from dawn till dusk and defended our freedom and theirs in service to our country. We all came from somewhere else.
Question:
Would you not agree that from an economic standpoint we'd be better suited to quit farming out our jobs to foriegn countries than to block the Mexicans from entering ours? Would you not agree its a much more productive use of our resources?

I narrowed it down between naval intelligence and air force intell.
Which do you think would be a better choice? Does the navy deal stricty with the navy and air force strictly with the air? And also which one do you is more technical and is known for their intelligence departments? I would appreciate any answers. Thanks.

I have a friend who goes to college at FAU. She rents an apartment with two other girls. One of the girls was told to move out by the other two a few weeks ago. Now there is another girl who is going to be taking her spot. Well the girl who is supposed to be moving out should have been out by the 1st of the month. Now the girl who is taking her place has her stuff in the living room and has been waiting for over a week for her room. The girl has already recieved her security deposit back and should have been moved out a while ago. They called the police b.c they wanted to move her stuff out and the police said that it would be considered Breaking and entering. Is that right? the girls name is not on the lease anymore and the new girls is and he stuff is in her room, which she refuses to get out. What should she do about this situation? Please ask for additional details if need be. The sum of the story is this girl should have been moved out two weeks ago and she refuses to?

When you buy shares in a retirement account, you purchase at the current market value of that fund. When you go to sell, you sell at the current market value at that time. If the selling price is higher than the purchase price, you make a profit. If the selling price is a lot higher than the purchase price, you make more of a profit. Do you control the purchase or selling price of the funds?

So why do people blame the oil companies for high prices when they don't set the price? It's the same basic principle. They buy the crude oil at the current market price, then sell it at what the current price is at the time they sell it. If the price at the time they sell is higher than the price at the time they purchase it, they make a profit.

Hillary Clinton is leading the polls among black voters. I think that black people are skeptical about Obama because they believe he has no chance at winning because the fact that he is black. It also appears that Hillary has much more support from the African American community than Obama. What are your thoughts?

Note: I know we shouldn't determine who we will support based on their gender or ethnicity.

Q: Why do Iraq Veterans Against the War call for the immediate withdrawal from Iraq?
A: There are several reasons why immediate withdrawal is the critical first step toward solving the problems in Iraq.
The reasons and rationale given for the invasion were fraudulent.

Go to this website http://www.ivaw.org/faq and read why these veterans of the Iraq War are against it and want our troops to come home. So no more of you neo-cons who ask "are you there" "did you serve". These people really were there and did serve.

I filed a police report against someone for trying to run me over with her car (she saw me out with my ex and she's fatally attracted to him). She found out I filed the report and has now told her lawyer that I falsely accused her, that I am a drug dealer (and I am certainly not, but she uses drugs) and she says her lawyer is going to write my boss (who is an attorney!) and tell him that I deal drugs, etc. I don't know whether to tell my boss, to go to the police again, or what to do? Help! I know, I know, this is a mess!

All based in Texas -
A manager lets his team leave early (say noon when the work day ends at 5 pm) and wants to pay everyone for working the full day. The team consists of a mix of both exempt and nonexempt employees. Is this against the law? Which ones? What is the risk or exposure of setting a precedence? What are the business ramifications (legally, financially, etc.)?
