We have been hearing a lot about 'civil war' recently in the news with regards to Iraq. I began to think there is nothing 'civil' about it. The words 'civil' and 'war' don't mix.

So what's your opinion on the label 'civil war' in general? Feel free to comment on Iraq too.

Am I the only taxpayer that has a problem with our government using taxes to pay for John Karr's 1st class airplane ticket home? He had roast duck and champagne for dinner. The tickets were $3,000 each and we paid for 5 for a total of $15,000. I dont fly first class why should we have to pay for him to fly 1st Class?

If I were a draftable age, I'd think about that.

I was almost drafted to go to Vietnan when I lost my S-2 student deferment as a freshman starting college on a full scholarship and Nixon changed the draft system into an involuntary draft system based on the order birthdates were randomly picked by a lottery method. Soon after we left Vietnam, the lottery system was abolished and the voluntary system put in place.

Please explain your answer and whether or not you are in the draftable age range which would be set by Presidential decree anywhere below 40 ie 39 to 18.

For example: Let's say I buy a new car. I will be taxed on the purchase price, taxed to put it on the road, taxed on the insurance, taxed on the servicing and (most highly) taxed on the fuel. After 3 years I'll be taxed on the MOT and any repairs in order to keep in on the road (the priveledge I am be taxed on). Oh and lets not forget, they tax us on the salary we are paid; so we have less money to pay the other taxes on everything else. Then Brown has the nerve to say if he cuts one tax 'Petrol' must go up; he's just bullying the country into having his own way.

Is the American governmental system influenced more by Locke or Hobbes? Does it appear to be changing? Explain your answer.

Do you think that it is right to try and legislate morality. Such as limits of free speech, gay marriage. And also, what laws do you view as a moral issue and not a legal one and what do you feel they should be?

The Philippines is really in bad condition right now... and its getting worse. The government is not in control...actually they're doing nothing good for the country . Personaly, I think its them who's messing up the country. The land where the rich becomes richer, and the poor suffers for life. Finish school, get a degree...you still aint getting no job. The government, politicians,law enforcers, justice...they're not in control. MONEY controls them! They're sick!!! Sometimes I think the Philippines can never recover on its own. I even think that the best way the Philippines can do is to let other countries like America to take over and control the country. Where's my pride as a filipino? Pride will take you nowhere, all I want is for my country to become a better place to live in. Lets face the truth,we filipinos cant run a country on our own...especially when your government leaders really suck! Like the ones we have right now. I really feel so bad for my country...please help.

What would you think about that? Would you want it to be called the United States or the United Kingdom? Do you think we will be more powerful or less powerful if we were to do it?
