Politics & Government - 13 December 2007

I have never done this nor would I but I was just curious as to what happens. What sort of trouble would a person be facing when they park illegally in one of these spots and gets towed?

In my opinion, a coporation is essentially the government excusing a business owner of legal and financial responsibility for the actions of their business. It is essentially Governmental insurance.

I can understand why the government would want to offer the ability to incorporate --- to spur people to creat business that employ it's people --- but shouldn't the government demand certain things in return for this golden dome of protection?

Things I'd like to see:

1) limits to how much an employee of a corporation can make. Not hard limits like "10 M annually" but multipliers, like no more than 300x your lowest paid employee or 15 x your lowest paid contractor.

So Walmart who's lowest paid employee makes say $8 an hour = ~16K a year, could only play their top execs 4.8M a year. If the top execs want a raise, they have to pay their working stiffs more.

2) No more than 30% of your hired or contracted workforce can be foreign.

Opinions?

If you parked your car in a business parking lot and it happened to get stolen, is it the city or business that is responsible for that lot?

*Didn't happen to me, just had a dispute with the wife on who's land that would belong to. I say it's the business fault for not having proper surveillance and she says that its a city claim.

Not sure you can google this one or if the U.S. Treasury will make this information availiable! What the private Federal reserve has in stock is only a portion and not part of this Question!

REPUBLICANS ONLY -- For laughs only...

Your worst nightmare came true...

Hillary Clinton was elected President.
Barack Obama is Vice President.
Barney Frank is Secretary of Defense...

How many of you who CLAIMED they would leave the country or blow their brains out would ACTUALLY do it?

(Hey, think about it...you lived through 8 years of Clinton, and the Dems through 8 years of Bush...doesn't that prove we are a resilient people?)

Like Lou Dobbs? I know plenty of racist Anglo males who claim they don't like illegal immigrants from Mexico, and hate Mexican males (even the legal ones). But they date and marry Mexican women? Isn't that a contradiction?

Abu Dabi buys minority controlling stake in Citibank.
Im talking about Countries (not foreigners) buying major US companies (not US Bonds).
Foreign countries that are not exactly for the best interests of the USA and have policies towards minorities and women that are not legal in the United States.

Looks like companies aren't taxed enough if they have 70 million left over to give one executive officer while Americans are losing their homes.

to keep them alive. The cost is approx 86,000. per year to keep them alive. If you want to keep them alive , then you would pay higher taxes. The ones who are for the death penalty would not have to pay.

Didn't she even ask if it was tough enough?

2007-12-13 03:45:18 · 14 answers · asked by Anonymous in Politics

correct? I mean, she wants to tax tax tax those who already pay more taxes than anyone (the wealthy) and redistribute money for the "victims" in this society. Am I correct on this, or can someone please ~ without insult ~ set me straight?
