(I am african american, it just happens that both my mom and dad are light skinned) we use it so much, and i for one am appalled for i think that any african american person today is too good to be called the n-word, because im sure no person wants to be a slave and i have never used the word in my life

What "achievable" steps can we as puertorricans take in order to improve our economy, and overall social wellbeing?
Our current governor tried to pay our international debt, yet due to partisan motives within our Senate and House of Reps., he failed to get such proposal passed. For such a small island, we've always had a horribly bloated and inefficient government, and every "positive" development have come by becoming even more indebted to other nations and banks. As a society, we are extremely collectivist in our views of each other, and therefore, consistently incite one another to maintain an "us vs. them" attitude. I don't agree with becoming annexed to the US, I disagree with the central economic planning of socialism that the PIP promotes, and I think our current political structure, as established in the "E.L.A." Constitution, is outdated, limiting, and counterproductive in nature. How do you think we should proceed in order to fix our country's mess?

This is America. If you have money, no one is going to force you to give up your choices of insurance and doctors. It's just to help those that have nothing be able to get some care so that they don't end up at the ER every time they need help, which ends up costing taxpayers much more in the end.
Isn't prevention cheaper than cures? Or do you have absolutely no sympathy for the poor who can't afford medical care?

In America, it is not right for self-employed people to not be able to afford health care. In America, will we ever realize all people need the ability to access health care? And do you think we will ever have a Universal Health Care Plan?

Unnecessary situations like the long period of power outages in Oklahoma last week could be easily mitigated. Auto deaths due to car/utility pole collisions could be reduced. Billions spent on annual tree-trimming could be used to pay for the burying of utilities. Why are we so backward on this?

I need to write an essay for my management class. I'd like to consider writing about how the government favors the poor more than the rich. Any info that could add more substance to my paper would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

My husband is 61yrs old and never lost a day's work in his life. I am almost 59 yrs. My husband has not a pension through his firm. Took out Private Pension which has literally 'went down the tubes' as have many others. His state pension forecast shows he should get approx. £200 per wk at 65 yrs. My state pension shows I should get just a little under £100 per week. We thought therefore this would be our joint income if he retired, plus a very small private pension. However, a friend who is usually knowlegeable in such matters actually laughed at us and said we will not recieve anything like this from the state and more likely to be something like £130 per wk between the 2 of us. I am now a bit worried with how we could survive on that. Is this correct?: Both of us have worked almost all our lives.

I am tired of this state screwing us over. The bosses of companies are some of worst pr88cks in the country, unemployment is 7.7 percent, trying to collect unemployment insurance is like risking a jail term if you forget to cross a "t" or dot an "i". They take away our jobs then they beat you while your down. Look Michigan, I want a job, and it's like your running away from me and making me chase you....! I have put in resumes, I have applied for a hundred jobs, I just graduated with a degree in web design, and still you cheat your citizens by outsourcing. What the hell is wrong with you Michigan???!!!! Why are you leaving us in the dirt????
