If the law decided to move age of consent to 21 in some states or nation wide in the USA?

WAIT! Don't say it's never going to happen. Just imagine that they did for now.. How would it affect society? How would it affect the people in the USA? But the people that had intercourse under 21 or their partner was over 21 annd they were under 21 will not have the law enforced on them, since they did that before the law became in effect.

Be as creative and logical as you can be! GO!

I'm a full-time employee for a regular company. I have just found out that a new position has been anounced an an existing employee has been promoted into that position. The job was not advertised (either informally or formally through the internal vacancy list). I wanted to apply for the position but couldn't as the position wasn't advertised. Is this legal in English Law?

Has it provided the public with a satisfactory means of obtaining redress in disputes with British newspapers and magazines, removing the need for any new laws to be brought in by the government to govern Press behavior? Or is it, as some critics say, a toothless watchdog?

Moved away, but has not informed the council (or anyone else due to being several thousand pounds in debt) My friend ensured that the council rent and council tax were paid six months in advance prior to the registered tennant leaving. She wants to inform the council that she is the tennant and is living there alone, however is concerned that as she is not british (lived here 18 months) she will be evicted from the property, despite the rent/council tax being up to date. Her main concern is that if she does not inform the council, that debt collectors could take her possesions believing that they belong to the registered tennant. does anyone know what will happen if she informs the council that she is living their alone (2 bedroom council house in Manchester) thanks.

I asked this question because of a big sting operation here in michigan where the cops are useing underage people to set up clerks of stores.
I have a friend that manages a gas station/conveinece store. One of his employees was set up and busted for selling to the cops under age kid. I don't know if the store still got fined, but my friend got his employee out of trouble by insisting that if they arrest his employee, than he is pressing charges on the underage kid for purchaseing and possesion of alcohol. Yep, it worked. Didn't matter that the underage person was part of a sting. By law, he was underage, purchased AND had possesion. Pretty smart of my friend I thought. Pass it on if you know any clerks.
