Government - November 2007

I am doing an assignment where I have to create a social pyrimid that represents the wealth, social classes, and rankings of american social classes based on the famous capitalist pyramid below:

http://seregaborzov.files.wordpress.com/2007/02/pyramid_of_capitalist_system.png

(if this doesnt work, just type in capitalist pyrimid in google)
I need to have creative little sayings like "we work for you, we eat for you" etc and come up with classes more detailed than just poor middle and high, something like beggars, artists, workers, entrepreuners, etc.
If i only had 5-6 different classes to describe everybody in america as, which ones should i use?

IF more people get sick...the more likely they are to vote for Hillary, cause they would have to engage in America's healthcare.

the people on the panel are no more intelligent or knowledgeable than the audience, they put up their hand and are chosen to be lucky enough to ask zippy a question. it's like a poor example of democracy at work.

I know this sounds like an easy "Yes" answer, but poker is definitely a different kind of gambling than roulette, craps, or playing the lottery. Poker takes skill unlike casino-type games. Should online poker be illegal just like those other online gambling games, or should poker be an exemption since it is a game of skill.

In the last 20+ years our elected officials have become less and less concerned and aware of what it is to live an average life, and we are supposed to think they will do something for us. Our education system is broke, our tax system is broke, homeland security is an oxymoron, and during elections these are issues that never get fixed, and now infra structure issues from neglect here at home, while we wage war on countries that haven't attacked us, and we can't find 1 guy, OBL, in 7 years. Why don't we give them all the boot this time and next time until they notice? This is our money they are wasting!

I haven't found the source for this one but considering the press over the past few years this may just be correct.

What group do these people belong to?
In the last year ---
36 have been accused of spousal abuse.
7 have been arrested for fraud.
19 have been accused of writing bad checks.
117 have directly or indirectly bankrupted at least 2 businesses.
3 have done time for assault.
71, repeat 71 cannot get a credit card due to bad credit.
14 have been arrested on drug-related charges.
8 have been arrested for shoplifting.
21 currently are defendants in lawsuits.
And 84 have been arrested for drunk driving.

Can you guess which organization this is? NBA, NFL, WWF?
No they are not members of these groups.
It's the 535 members of the United States Congress.

The same group of Idiots that crank out hundreds of new laws each year designed to keep the rest of us in line.

It's not just Democrats or Republicans-- It's both of them!

J P Morgan and Paul Warburg worked for the Rothchilds whom at the time controled the majority of wealth and all the banking in Europe. They wanted the Federal reserve so as to be able to collect the interest on the money they printed for the USG and lent out to the Central Bank. In todays world are the Rothchilds still in control or has their power been diluted to several or more groups whom struggle with one another in order to get the power to get their agends satisified?

I say no. The president has very little power when it comes to abortion. Abortion is allowed because of a supreme court decision about privacy. It says that state laws prohibiting abortion are unconstitutional. Thanks supreme court for letting states make up their own minds.

How do we end abortion? A constitutional amendment RIGHT BY GOD NOW STOP MAKING EXCUSES AND PUTTING IT OFF CONTACT CONGRESS RIGHT BY GOD NOW. Clear enough?

I heard TV news today that our ex-soldier Capt. Bana Singh who recaptured a chowky from Pakistan which is named after him as Bana Chowky and who is a recipient of Param Vir Chakra received a meagre Rs. 166/- as honorarium from J.& K. Govt. Compare this with Rs. 1 Crore prize to Yuvraj Singh for hitting six sixes in six minutes. I invite your comments.

Our school has been donating thousands of dollars raised by a Benefit Concert held each year. Every time we go to nominate our candidates for the coming year's recepient, our minds always seem to travel to the ones that need it most-for the past quite a few years, the recipieants have been cayses to help out Africans (Africa Project twice, Save Darfur Coalition, now Doctors Without Borders for Plumpynut malnourished aid).

Is it the faulty governments? Even so, how can that many countries-all in proximity-have one thing in common-chaos?
Fatal Epidemics here (Ebola Virus/HIV?AIDS), genocide there (Sudanese Janjaweed genocide).

Most of all, why isn't there anything being done by governments of the more privileged countries? (such as us, the US). Okay, so we've tried...but has anything really been done? Is Africa going to keep surviving on minute help from comparatively insignificant aid (such as school fundraisers and small volunteer groups)?
