I'm not necessarily talking about pure hammer-and-sickle socialism. What I'm referring to is social democracy: Free universal health care, free child care, etc. Social democracy already exists in Europe and in several provinces in Canada. Do you think it could happen in the United States? Why or why not?

Thanks in advance.

I saw this article about the effect of an increased minimum wage in Arizona (state law, not the federal thing). SUPPOSEDLY, this article says that business owners are "claiming" that they are having to cut back on "jobs" expecially for high school "kids". I thought Raising minimum wage wouldn't of caused unemployment, so this article is lying right? Did the oil industry pay them off?

The Susan B. Anthony and the Sacajawea have been flops, basically. Now a new coin featuring presidents is about to be realeased. Is it the concept of a dollar coin, the design or (my personal choice) the size of the new coins? If it were significantly larger than the quarter, would it be accepted?

My husband lost his job 4 months ago and I have no idea what we can do. We've gone through our savings and our IRS return just to buy groceries and pay off our bills. I'm the only one working and it's not enough. I'm not even getting 40 hours a week. We have two children and it seems like we can't get ahead for anything. We have been trying everything in our power not to go on public assistance but now it's looking like we may have to. Is there anything we can do?
