    is an election the best indicator of all?

    I wonder if an election can be an indicator of peoples future desire/outlook. I think most people feel like the republican party looks out for the businesses and rich. I also think most feel the democrats look out for the poor and less fortunate. So if a democrat wins does that mean...

    A question about the poverty level.

    Do any of you know people, like I do, whose income puts them below the poverty level? I am thinking of those that are happy with their income. It is one thing to earn 10k a year and try to keep up with the Jones'. And another thing entirely to earn that 10k and be content with fishing...

    Lets compare obama to another famous black man

    I just had a couple thoughts. Maybe you guys can add something. I live in MS. Lots of rednecks LOTS down here. Even more black people. So one could assume that racial tension is high. Well thats just not the case. I do hear a good bit of racial jokes but thats about as far as it...

    Red State Socialism

    That BS is one of the main reasons I hate statistics. Lets completely leave out the lack of big business in states like MS. A real comparison would be total taxes from business vs individuals per state then compared to federal money spent in those states for social programs.

    From Abraham Lincoln, Famous Democrat

    Dave, I have to say that mayors most certainly can prevent poverty in their cities. Together with city councils they have power over taxes, building codes and a host of other sources to bring jobs into their cities. Most times a poverty rate is over 20% JOBS are the number one issue.

    Should Everyone Be Allowed To Vote?

    oktiri come on man you know that not all parasites are in symbiotic relationsships with their host. I really didnt peg you for a fact bender. And I shouldn't even get started on teachers and most other low salary goverment employee's. The more we talk about so many issues the easier it...

    Indiana in Play

    Iceman it is very interesting to watch people stick a pin in you, and see that your opinion of yourself doesn't deflate one bit. Twice in this thread you have accused people of something and then when they came back and faced down your accusations you didn't even mention it, except to rant...

    You can cut the desperation with a knife...

    He was obviously refering to farrakhan. Just cant say it out loud or all hell would break out. Politics aside, I freaking hate reporters. The saying should be changed from those who can do and those who can't teach, to teach or report.

    VW shares halve as Porsche eases short squeeze

    I might not understand exactly what went on in this deal. If however GS did get shafted it is funny in a sick twisted southpark like way, that a german company NW really stuck it to a Jewish company GS. Wiki says Mr. Goldman was a german Jew who came to the US in the 1890's. I know its...

    Obama Birth Certificate Issue Goes to Hawaii Supreme Court

    bio, If you have time and want to play along Imagine in this debate you had to argue the other side. If you do not want to here its cool. I am just curious how it would go if you and some of the other guys switched sides of the argument. I can't figure out why when S. Obama was just...

    The biggest social impact of the financial crisis

    oktiri, can you elaborate? I was thinking just the other day. That it is interesting how recently women have gone back to seeking "manly men". The manly look and personality has really been coming on strong, as opposed to the "metro" look that has been popular for years now. It is...

    this isnt political but you guys are smart (darwin)

    oktiri just to be clear I fully believe in natural selection. I just fail to see how it was such a big deal. People have know for eons that the strong survive. That is why the spartans threw ou the weak at birth. People have known for eons that traits are passed on from parent to...

    your opinions on inequalities

    poy I understand your line of thinking but I do not agree(al the time) I am sure you are right and many people are making money off the backs of the poor. however it is a marxist view that the profits of the capitalist are stolen from the labor of the worker. I happen to think that I...

    this isnt political but you guys are smart (darwin)

    I am going to start by saying that I only remember the basics of Darwin's theory of evolution. (something about green peas lol) Anyhow my question/point is, does anyone else want to thank Mr. Darwin for stating the obvious? People had been breeding animals long before he started his work...

    The Real Obama on Wealth Redistribution

    zorro, I agree most decisions are made based on what is best for the individual. However most decisions are no more important (individually) than what to have for dinner on up to, maybe, where to build a house. When choosing the leader of the free world, or even when deciding wether or...
