When I was a kid in school I had to read books by Maya Angelou like "I know why the caged bird sings," and other black culture books. Can someone be arrested for forcing me to do this?

I thought they were all encompassing of people who refuse to designate themselves to either of the 2 main parties...it's startting to look like they're not moderates or unaffilates at all. It was a good idea for a while, now it's the "other GOP"

I hired a number of east European peasants to work for me. I've now been told that at £2.00 an hour, I'm paying them below something called the minimum wage. What should this matter to my peasants?

i received a citation this morning.

it says if you or your attorney do not file a written answer with the clerk who issued this citation within 20 days...a default judgement may be taken against you.

i went to the district clerk's office to submit the written answer and when i asked what they wanted me to write they said they could not offer any advice and i would have to speak with a lawyer.

this collection agency is very crooked and i have the necessary paperwork to fight this coming shortly.

i'm not hiring a lawyer....can anyone tell me what a" written answer" is?

Well, I have came to quite a predicament here in my life, and am just confused on what exactly I want to do.

All my life I have been a sheltered child, not really being able to get out and do things on my own. Now that I am almost 18, and graduating soon. I feel as if I want to join the marines and put myself to the test, learn more of what I am truly capable of.

I feel like I may be going into it being ignorant of what the Marines are and what I will get in life from it. Nothing ever really sparked my attention of getting any degree in college, I mean, I'm not going to be a smart ivy league collegiate and not even sure on what I want to learn. I feel like I'd just be wasting my time.

State distribution of healthcare for the needy is one of the worst things about our CURRENT system.

The local clinics for things like HIV, Eldercare and Drug Treatment (the ones that provide for lower incomes) are run so haphazardly because of lack of training and funds always being cut.

It is unfair and immoral to:
a) blame Universal Health Insurance for something that is a result of the current system.

b) to blame the faults of funding cuts on the clinics that have been abandoned.

Also - What is the logic in saying that dying people should go out and get a job? Isn't that overly simplistic?

Do people really think that their great grandmother or a 12 yearold crack cocaine addict are capable of working to pay off medical expenses when they are ill?

I was just wondering because many of my friends have 2 or more dwi's and can not drive drunk that often when we go out anymore. Because I haven't gotten any, I usually have to drive. I need some pointers so that I do not do any of these signs so that the cops won't pull me over.

I just got my hair done, all blond on top & dark brown under neath. My boss said I have to talk to him about my job & my new hair style b/c he does not like it. I think that he is going to try to get me to change it or treaten me with my job, CAN HE DO THAT??? If he can not then I WILL NOT CHANGE it back. I am a grown woman & don't feel the need to have permission to color my hair.

it is not pink, blue or any other crazy color. It is not sticking up like a mowhawk or anything crazy like that. He is just old school & does not like the change.

I'm assuming that after the primary, which is the last election I am ineligible for, my voter registration will be processed. Is this true? Additionally, the first election I am eligible for is the presidential election, at which time I will be living in Washington, DC for college. How do I reflect this change so that I can vote in DC? Do I have to reregister?
