Please choose only one--even if you're "conflicted", try to select your top answer. Please also share "why" you would live in the city that you chose. (To make this more interesting, please do not select the place that you are already living.)

I keep seeing post after post, here, where "rich people" are denegrated. I also see it in TV ads, in bad novels, in the newsaper (especially the NY Times), and just about every other place you can thnk of. I'm ready to open a jar of peanut butter and have a pop-up flag tell me that "the rich" want the working stiffs of America under the heels of their boots.

AND YET....everyone here dreams of being a millionaire.

Can anyone offer an explanation, however bizarre? Thank you so much. I'll be quiet, now.

I am a letter carrier at the post office and have a friend at the gas station on my route . He is from Pakistan , we get along very well and have become good friends. Race , religion or politics have never entered our conversations.
I am not a very religious person but I believe as long as you are honest and never hurt anyone out of malice you are truly a good person.

I ain't knockin' bad grammar. I use punctuation marks incorrectly---a lot---a whole lot; especially, the semi-colon. I use the word cain't around my friends, I've probably said it around language arts buffs.

It's a tough challenge for young people to excel at English, when they get accused of trying to be proper. Could the use of good grammar at work just be considered a "survival tool?"

I mean, if good communication skills are needed (to at least be in the running for a job) how can that be considered as "selling out" when one knows that friends will not pay the bills for them for "keepin' it real?"

My friend whom I work with's ex boyfriend will not leave her alone, but he lives 2 houses down from her. The reason she left is because he started drinking and pushing her around when he was drunk. I am trying to convince her to get a restraining order before something bad happens. She is holding back because she doesnt think the police will give her one being that he lives 100 feet away.

no one teaches it anymore, everyone says the government should plan our retirement for us(social security), the government should decide how much our boss gives us (minimum wage),the gov. should feed us and clothe us and buy our hurricane insurance for us("poor katrina victims"), whatever happened to personal responsibility?

It seems like a lot of kids are obsessed with drinking (and weed/smoking/drugs but thats another topic). Why. I've drank with my friends on many occassions (15 plus-intoxicated mayb 12 of those times), and I'm sorry but I don't enjoy it at all. The sickness, the taste of the many choices of alchol, the best part is the slight buzz after your first 2 drinks but thats not even that great. I view drinking as a waste of time, and many people do it (and I know it sounds cliche) to look cool. I understand that some people do it when they're older to socialize and thats cool, but i'm talking as a way of life it's dumb and foolish and immature. But what I wanted to ask is, if I don't drink in college or for the rest of my life (I'm beginning to consider this option) is that a big deal? Will I regret it. I think watching a baseball game is fun, I think playing flag football with your friends is fun, I think drinking is not fun. Am I wrong.

For instance, Just_Me's says in a question of hers that one day she's 17...2 1/2 months later there's another question by her stating she's 19 and that her kids like 2 1/2 y/o when she said she might be pregnant like 2 weeks ago. Nothing more.

You are in one room. They are in another. You have no way to communicate with them. You both have a box with a button. You have one hour to choose. The first one to push the button leads to the peaceful death of the other. If neither of you pushes the button you both die. What do you do?

Please include your location in your answer to put it into context.

Do you have plans, or have you thought about making plans, for what to do in the event of a nuclear war, or at least a nuclear bomb going off? Do you have a shelter or do you know where you will use as a shelter? Have you discussed it with your family? Is there a specific plan in your community if you live in a high risk area?

I know the cold war is over and it's all far fetched, but I have often thought about what I would do and where I would go (besides probably dying), and I'm just wondering if any one else has considered their plans.
