Where did it go?

Why is it is that when someone does something that negatively affects their lives, be it legally or financially, there is always someone or some organization there to say that it wasn't their fault?

It's not "her" fault that she has 5 kids and is on welfare...it's societies...we let her down...

it's not his fault that he deals crack...

It's not her fault that she breaks into peoples houses and takes what they own....

There is always an excuse.....

Where did personal responsibility go? Do you know how I can find him and get him back...or did he pack up and leave with common sense?

1. 30 year mortgages
2. Long term bonds?

If they really believe this, should the government ban these because the companies/people who hold them know that they will never get the maturation of their loan?

Is it the best idea? Why or why not? This is a question for my 10 year old's Social Studies project, just intended to get a sample of people's opinions. If it helps any, his project is about the use of walls throughout history and how they compare with this proposed fence. Thanks in advance!

I am so sick of being taxed and fined just to fill some rich polititians pockets! This Country is nothing but a big scam! They want all this money for doing nothing. I believe that the money I make should be mine to choose how it is spent, seeing how I am the only one working for it. I certainly dont want to put the money I work so hard for towards a new corvette for the cops to pull me over in just to give me another ticket and keep up the cycle. The only difference between me robbing you in a dark alley and uncle sam and all his taxes, fines, and fees is that uncle sam gets you every single time you touch your wallet! What do you think about what you just read?

There is no solution blah blah blah blah.....
I've got a solution - bring back capital punishment!! What rights do paedophiles, rapists, murders etc, have to be kept in 'luxury' in the prisons with T.V's, computers, etc
They obviously don't care about anybody so why should we have to pay to keep them in jail? Then those who commit lesser crimes will be put in jail, so HOPEFULLY this country will be safer again. Who agrees??

They said that higher temperatures would "continue for centuries" no matter how much humans control their pollution.

So what's the point?

If it is indeed man-made, and it is indeed "unstoppable", and there is nothing we can do to stop it, then what is the point of changing anything?

Thanks.
