Government (Politics & Government) - August 2006

NEW ORLEANS - Thieves hauled off $100,000 worth of heavy equipment that was being used to help build a Lower Ninth Ward memorial to the victims of Hurricane Katrina.

A Bobcat excavator and a Bobcat T300 Skid Steer Loader, both of which require trailers or flatbed trucks to transport, were removed from the site sometime between midnight and 6:30 a.m. Saturday, construction company officials said.

In the neighborhood that remains nearly pitch black at night almost a year after the levees failed, the equipment didn't last three days at the site.

Can you really blame them???? Almost a year and no fucin homes put up and some assholes are tryin to build a memorial for the dead people (no disrespect) and sayin fuc the ones that are alive, I would have stole the equipment too. Why the hell are they even building a memorial in a town where anyone that its "SUPPOSED" to be for isnt even there to see it because they are out of a home and jobs, what the fucs the purpose????

OK ready to get yelled at again!?

Should we get rid of or tighten the hell out of social services? I know there are some that need help and don't have a problem with it, but from what I have seen about 90% are just taking advantage of the system. I know this one lady that is recieving housing, food stamps, and several other forms of aid.
yet she works under the table making enough money to buy a 30 k dollar car put 6 k in rims on the thing and parties everynight.....

If Senator Hillary Clinton runs for presidential office in 2008, will you vote for her?? If not, why?

We need a change, bottom line. Love her or hate her, but it is time for a strong woman in office. Not because she is a woman, but because she is a smart woman and knows her stuff.......

How Much Power Do They Ultimately Want?

The leaders of the Neo-Conservative movement have established the "Project for a New American Century". The title and nature of this organization made up of some of the World's most powerful men seems to outline American dominance of the planet. What do these men ultimately want? Would they strive for as much as a one-world government controlled by Neo-Cons? How close are we to this already?

This is a question to see what various people think on the subject so please don't attack just answer honestly if you wish to share your thoughts on the matter. Thanks!

Canada has had free healthcare for ages now. Why not America? I find it shameful that someone should be sent home to die if they don't have the money to pay the surgeon with.
