I am in neutral position, but just wonder the reasons why people want the A suicide to be allowed. Except 1. get rid of agony of patients and 2. save the money on keeping them alive. Thank you for your opinion.

The rich companies are content to lock people into a cycle that is difficult to escape, racking up too much debt that they can't pay off, and shelling out a large portion of their income on interest payments. Don't get me started about criminal late payment fees.
This is good for the finance sector, but is it good for the economy as a whole? When consumers actually buy less because they have less money left over, then we are actually selling fewer consumer goods, aren't we? Is it really good to have a few powerful people in control of the money while the lower class sinks into economic turmoil?

When answering me, try to think of my reasoning not as that of a "communist", but in the same sense as Japan, for example, where they seem to think that it's good for everyone to be fairly financially sound so that everyone can participate in the economy and there aren't a lot of poor people dragging the economy as a down....

Answer this to the best of your abilities. I just thought that this question should be asked because this just might be the answer to peace that this world has been looking for. Maybe not. Either way, it was definately an easy answer for me. Let's see how easy an answer it is for you. Have fun and don't fear any critism, tell the truth and I'll agree to agree or disagree, but to never scorn what you have to say.

if they weren't jealous, why would their being conceited even get to them? if you don't really think they've got a reason to be conceited, or they aren't really all that, then why would you even care in the first place?

it seems like whenever i'm happy and enjoying life, there's always someone acting mean or trying to bring me down, but if i'm down and hating life and depressed and miserable, then that's when people are the nicest and seem to talk less about me negatively. why is this?

I noticed that most toys geared to girls are very superficial. Bratz is just something that inflames me everytime I see them. So are these toys trying to ingrain in our young females that should only focus on raising babies and looking good for their man?

zimbabwe failed not because of egalitarianism & justice, but lack of - the zimbabwe thing was merely a transfer from one small group to another small group - not an increase of justice or equality

and naturally the inexperienced [and more interested in spending up large with their new booty] could not do as well as the experienced & settled plunderers

but if the land had been divided fairly, the agric. production would have increased and the violence would have decreased

compare japan, reformed by general macarthur, going from defeated and firebombed nation to top nation in 50 years - or scandinavian countries, egalitarian and low violence [and highest capital formation - it makes sense that saving is going to be highest [and moneylending cheapest] where everyone can save]

zimbabwe is more like the middle east, extreme wealth/poverty, and naturally therefore extreme conflict/social unrest costs [50% of GNP]
