I thought it would pass, because the majority seems to be brainwashed to not mind porking the hated minority in the rear.

Did you know 90% of the tax money was allotted to expenses that have nothing to do with smoking? Most was earmarked as gift money for the big hospital corporations. They play on the hatred of the gullible masses for their personal gains. They thought they could get us to exploit the unpopular smoker minority lynch-mob-style because hell, I'M not the one paying these taxes, so who cares? Screw the other guy!

Thankfully, yesterday we found that Californians have at least some vestige of conscience and clear sight left, and it may take more than sugar-coated demagoguery for the corporations to swindle money out of us. But with propaganda getting slicker and sleazier every day, how long will the rejection last?

Smokers have already become the catch-all whipping boy in several other states. Such an easy, outnumbered group to exploit for profit.

what are my options? I have gon to the bank twice and they say to check every few days to see if this guy has the amount in his account since they can't tell me how much he has in there, I don't want to cash it until they say he has the full amount, what else can I do? I don't want to contact him, since i have already done that, and he hasn't called back, and I don't want to push him then he can terminate the check. what do i do? thank you.

You know how a pub can "bar" you? Well is it possible for a worker in a restaurant to tell a customer this without requiring legal backup? I know an ASBO would work but the owners of the restaurant don't want to go down any route which would involve the police.

Is there actually anything in the law books which supports what pubs do? Any link to relevant UK laws would be great.

Background info is basically that an ex-girlfriend of one of the staff is threatening to kill the ex (but doesn't have a knife on her) and also enters areas where no customers are allowed. There are plenty of witnesses but the managers are worried about police due to other issues, mainly involving the nationality of eh ex and some people in the business. Also there are no security recordings, although this may be my next suggestion.

Thanks :)

Franklin hired ABC Roofing, Inc. to install a new tar and gravel roof on his duplex. Using a kettle and pumping device parked in a driveway next to the duplex, the roofing crew transported hot tar to the roof. When the gravel truck arrived, the crew moved the kettle and pumping device to make room for the truck. After the gravel was deposited on the roof, crew members realized they needed 50 more gallons of tar to complete the job. The foreman then directed employee Bob to carry 10 five-gallon buckets of hot tar up a ladder to the roof. While performing this task, Bob fell off the ladder and was burned by hot tar.



Bob sought workers' compensation benefits for his injuries. He also sued Franklin, the owner of the duplex, alleging two theories of recovery: that Franklin had been negligent in selecting ABC as a roofer; and that, because of the inherent danger of working with hot tar, Franklin should, under the doctrine of peculiar risk, be liable for injuries to Bob that resulted from ABC's negligence.

I sent an Autopsy Report, Medical Records, ans a Toxicoligy Report to an Attorney. His firm reviewed them and He told me that they viewed it as Suspicious, but wanted to let another Attorney outside their Firm to look at them and give his opinion. well the other Attorney said he was also suspicious so they sent them to a Medical Doctor for Review. My question is why won't he tell me anything more, is it that he's being Thorough or is he in over his head?

Has anyone gone through an adoption hearing for their own child?
My husband's mother of his child and her husband are trying to adopt the child. My husband keeps in touch with her by phone and visits every once in a while ( we live in NJ and she in Colorado) and sends her gifts but they led the child to believe that her stepfather is the real father. There will be a trial for this, if my husband shows upa nd is fighting to not give her up for adoption can he lose, I mean doesn't he have to agree to it.
Just a side note, my husband has a clean record and has no problems that they could bring up like alcohol or drug, etc. He has 2 children with me and a mental health professional has even evaluated him and said he was fit (the court required both parents to do an evaluation or parenting class). The only thing they could use against him is that he hadn't visited in two years, he called and sent gifts but he was financially unable to travel (it costs over $1200 for flight, hotel ,car)

I'd like to know how one would go about adding charities and politicians to the "do not call" registry. Having just survived about 50 unwelcome and unwanted calls over the last two weeks, I'm fed up. If you truly know how we'd go about it (try to get it added as referendum, start a campaign with the Senate, whatever), please speak up!

income tax became law in 1913, when the sixteenth amendment was enacted. It violates parts of the constitution and the declaration of independance, both of which claim that freedom means that we should be able to keep all of the fruits of our labor or earnings.
