I don't need or want an explanation. I'm just doing a survey for a school project. Please answer with a simple "for", "against", or "neutral".

Are you for or against gay marriage?

Thank you.

Was it love? Sex? Attaining some lofty goal? Realizing something? Something else?

Following the murder by two youths of a 31 year old City Laywer in London for a mobile phone and a travel card an academic in Glamorgan University has concluded street crimes occur because their perpetrators enjoy hurting people rather than a need for money.

To be honest anyone whos walked past a group of town centre chavs on a Saturday could have told him that; but why do youths/teens in the UK enjoy acting like absolute a-holes? Ive never encountered it in any other country.

if not can you comment on some or all of the following:

-we have very effective means of killing ourselfs (nuclear, biological etc) and have come very close to doing so at least twice (Cuba and Pakistan)

-We don't really care about our planet (global warming, deforestation etc) -

We are very intolerant of others (religious extremisms, racism etc

I personally have seen a few homeless people around my way, which aren't that messed up in the head. I would offer one of them a new start in a 3rd world country. The airfare might cost around $700, with the remaining money that person can live for $50-$100 a month in that country. I would arrange for that person a place to stay and help them find a job. Being an english speaking american, they will have an easier time finding a job, compared to the locals. He/she would start a new life, and make a pretty good salary according to that countries standard. It'll help them to regain their confidence as a working individual. (I know it'll probably be hard to convince a homeless person to go to another country, but it's an idea :p) What's yours?

i live in a developing country that has been in an incessant civil war. Due to the goverment's priorities being focused on the war, the state of poverty has begun to increase. From what i see, i see that there are more old and frail people on the roads and it aches me to see them because they are obviously too weak to care for themselves.
whenever possible i buy them some food or give them some money. i have realised that due to inflation it is pretty useless giving them spare change, so i give them a considerable amount in order to buy atleast one meal.
I just don't understand how people have become so selfish and materialistic that they don't realise that there are so many poor people suffering. People waste so much of money on useless things and i must say i too am not a saint. i come from a very well off family but my parents have taught me to care for the less fortunate as well.
what can we do? what can YOU do? please, let's try and make a difference
thank you in adv

Yesterday me my cousin and her boyfriend (who is black) took the train downtown. I sat a few seats from them while my cousin and her boyfriend sat together talking. People on the train were looking at them and getting mad, some were even mumbling insults. I mean why.

I asked a question about Oprah earlier and just got a bunch of non awnsers, just insults telling me off for hateing on Oprah. The question wasnt about how much she gives, it was really about the fact that she has such an excess of wealth that could be helping others a lot more. Ted Turner gave one third of his wealth to the united nations, he still had 2 billion dollars for himself, so its not like its hard to give huge sums away when you have huge sums left. So why do so many say she worked hard etc and deserves it etc. Coal miners work hard and so do nurses, come on be real. The question was about those with extreme wealth because they have the power to really change the world. Dont you think they should if they can?

There were 30 senior students soon to graduate. They were all at the office tour of KPMG, a CPA Firm who was going to conduct interviews of the 30 students. Part of the interview process was to see how each of the 30 students interacted wth each other during a 10 minute break. There were 25 whites, 3 asians, 2 hispanics. The cliche was there, as you can see in University lunch rooms where people are segregated by "color" I, being chinese "initiated" to meet the other candidates (white), but never was the case where, a white person, came up to me, to meet me voluntarily for no other purpose than to socialize. This I notice throughout my life, whitie will not come up just to socialize, but only if you can offer them something! When USA government wants its citizens to intergrate, only color people are doing the work to "mix", whitie just stand there trying to fend off the mixing.

We live in age of overload, an excess of all kinds of information that serves many purposes, some good, some not so good and most self serving at best.

Knowing this, do you feel the current Age of Media offers little of actual substance?
