Why arent more people angry about this economy???????
Answers: 5 Views: 817 Rating: 1 Posted: 13 years ago

Why because it is the American way to rip off the US citizen. Why did G E who has over 270,000 employees world wide, who's assets are over $151 billion dollars and last year their net profit was over $5.1 billion dollars and not pay a penny in federal, or state taxes. Answer that question and you will have your answer to your question why are companies moving off shore. Because if they move their operations over seas, they don't have to pay any taxes at all and create more unemployment, but the big thing is they want all the money and not to pay any benefits or taxes or even their debts off and still file for bankruptcy. Is that the American way of doing business, in the old school no, but this is the new Global economy is going. To hell in a hand basket. So there is no surprise there, why companies move off shore, they threaten the US government to move their operations over seas or give them a tax break or not even pay their fair share of taxes. The companies out there make giant mistakes and costly mistakes as well and we the middle class or low income pay for their greed. That is the American way, have some one else pay your way in life. No one is responsible that way and no one person can be blamed. This is what you get when people just vote without seeing the real thing out there. They vote with their eyes closed and figure they would vote for the other person because of what the other party did not do. But wait the fun is about to bust again. The stock market is going to crash even harder this time then in 2008 and then you will think about why people vote for idiots. Hey if Donald Trump and Sara Palin can run for President and when your Republicans insist on Obama to prove his citizenship and his birth certificate when Sara Palin will not prove her education, says so much about "our" politicians. Hey look they are crooks, companies that leave this country should lose their assets and have them frozen and made to pay off all of their debts or else prosecute them. But you will never see that. So good luck trying to find out why companies move out of this country. Let these companies sell their crap over there and not allow their goods here. Maybe that will change things, but not until then.

No Child Left Behind Act
Answers: 2 Views: 612 Rating: 0 Posted: 13 years ago

The no child left behind does not mean every child in this country. Thank you Mr. Bush for passing this mistrust information. No child left behind is just for the wealthy and rich, which means that the rich kids will not be left behind and will get everything that is entitled to them. But for the poverty and low income families they are left behind and can not get anything. This country is really only for the rich to become richer, the middle class loses everything and the poor children who are homeless, well there goes your answer. How can this country allow children, innocent children live on the streets or at homeless shelters while the rich just keep taking and taking from our economy and are ruining our entire way of living. In this day and age with our recession or really depression the rich just keep getting richer and their kids profit on this, but the real people out there, families who had parents working hard lose their jobs, their savings, their retirements, the medical coverage and most importantly their homes, now lets see the rich go buy a homeless shelter and tell these innocent children why they live there and will not have any hope of the future. Is this a good proposition, no. Just for the rich and not for everyone else, so that is why our government is so screwed up and we just keep paying and bailing out the rich and losing our own funds. Nice way of doing business and it isn't getting any better.

CAN I DECLARE BANKRUPTCY FOR FREE
Answers: 3 Views: 850 Rating: 0 Posted: 13 years ago

Unfortunately, in today's world nothing is free. Most of the time if you go through a lawyer they will not take on the bankruptcy until you pay them in full. I went through it over 7 yrs ago and they did not do anything until I paid them off. But if you do it yourself, it will still cost you, for court costs and other costs. But if you have any credit card debt included in the bankruptcy you can not file for it until you pay off your credit cards. Thanks to George W. Bush Jr as president, he signed a law when he was in his first term that does not allow any individual who has credit card debt, you can not file bankruptcy, but large companies who have credit debt and still making money can claim bankruptcy and not pay off their debts. Funny how this country does things, a person can not claim bankruptcy with credit card debt, but a large company like AIG or Fanny Mae or companies like that can file bankruptcy and still receive large salaries and giant bonuses for failure. Shows what kind of a real country we all live in and wonder why we have the problems we have here.

meicinal marijuana
Answers: 3 Views: 877 Rating: 1 Posted: 13 years ago

Yes there is, but it has to do with your state you live in, if it is legal there for medical purposes. Any medical marijuana is good for you, just depends on how you take it, whether you smoke it or get it in a baked form, like cookies or brownies or some kind of eatable form. Have you checked with your doctor or discussed it with him or her? Then you will know which way to go.

The state of our economy
Answers: 3 Views: 1614 Rating: 1 Posted: 13 years ago

It is true the state of our economy was against women, but now I have heard from CNN and all other news stations that women are now the majority of the CEO's of the top 500 companies in the world. Things have changed. But no doubt about it our economy is in the crapper and not getting better. Gas is now over $3.56 a gallon over $105 a barrel. Just people getting even greedier and the people are suffering. This is the worst our economy has ever been even worse then the Great Depression, from what people who lived through the depression. This is worse and not getting better. On this Friday our government will shut down due to no budget thanks to the politicians arguing again. More people will be laid off, prices of everything you buy is going up at least by 3% percent. So that is where our economy is at.

How can the USA citizens get rid of these illegal immigrants?
Answers: 8 Views: 2560 Rating: 1 Posted: 13 years ago

Simple: Have the Feds do their job. I think they know what their job is, or I could be wrong. Show my how our Great Homeland Security Adviser is doing, terrible you got it. Our country does not want to stop Illegals from coming here, too much money involved. Simple as that, would make too much sense to stop it and our country has no sense at all, let alone any common sense or they are too good do them. That is what is wrong with this country and the way it is going will never get back to being the 'GOOD OLD USA".

Help me ? I need some advice....
Answers: 20 Views: 3177 Rating: 0 Posted: 13 years ago

Don't change yourself, If you like yourself then others will see it coming from you. You will have an light shinning from you. Don't be overly aggressive or assertive, be yourself that is what real people will like. Any others who think you need to change then they are not worth it at all. Believe me others will see it and except you for whom you are.
