    Lottery curse claims another victim

    About 10% of the people control about 90% of all the money in the world. If ALL the world's money was evenly distributed to all 6 Billion of us, in a short time, the money would flow back to that same 10% that used to control it. It's got nothing to do with anything but one's beliefs about...

    Is welfare pointless

    A "Bad Attitude" ?? As for your example, yea, she does have a bad attitude--- towards herself, which is a shame. We all carry self defeating beliefs to one degree or another.
