Government - August 2007

We're building the George H. W. Bush aircraft carrier. Last time I checked we had ten of these things. Each of them carries 85 combat jets, helicopters, AWACs style planes and so on. The carrier costs 4.5 billion dollars and 160 million a year to operate. Every aircraft on it costs 35 million dollars and up. So let's not even bother with the math. It's obvious that one less carrier battle group would pay for a LOT of infrastructure.

We regularly receive mail for 5+ people who have our address (presumably from long long ago), but do not live here. About 30% of the incoming mail is addressed to these people and it's very annoying. How do we get the post office to stop spamming us with other peoples' crap??

I really don't know anything about what the CIA is but my uncle said it is a good job and a smart girl like me should consider it but I don't know anything about the CIA. I only know they are agents going around the world or in our country spying and doing several jobs under the supervision of the president. I want to know what EXACTLY do they do though and anyone be specific?

How much cost would be involved? Would it be constitutional? For Catholics it would mean their priests could only speak English. Our money would have to have Latin removed. Lawyers could no longer use Latin.

So much about terrorism. Either help Iraq change its financial status or leave. Violence is violence whether it is here or there.
The US has illegals and Spanish and Arabs are now a genuine
asset of the US . Give us your tired and poor. Well,we have them. Now lets educate and move on like we always have and stop the apathy of the American people. Houses cost to much and we have uneducated persons to fill our jobs as most of the baby boomers are attempting to retire. War may be good for some economies but it is strapping our interests internally.

The Dems. took control of the house stating how they really wanted to make a difference because the Reps. did not. After years of talking about going green and better fuel standards for cars, the Dems. don't even attempt to take on the issue. They tackled the issue the same way the Reps. did, they pushed it aside because it was too hot to debate. Didn't we elect these people specifically to debate and legislate these issues?
