I don't believe in "achieving" as the be all and end all life. Money is important, very important when you don't some basics and flexibilities in your life. Great & fame may not be the goal of many. I met kids from prep schools, they were self-confident, some obnoxiously so. Their family have...

What are you complaining about when you get food stamps and free school in a relatively free country? Being poor is the 3rd world is another story, no food stamps, no foster home, no social welfare. Nothing. There is something worse than poverty: Irresponsible wicked abusive parents. I had...

Many spirited girls are labeled ADHD, girls too spirited education that allows for more time (MUCH MORE TIME) exploring ones personal aptitudes and interests. In general, schools train students to become a cog in the wheel for the big industrial/military complex, this has been so since the...

This extra federal aid is beyond what unemployment insurance insured for. It is a tax funded problem, but it is NOT available to the once self-employed.

American government charity doesn't begin at home. Billions are used to buy influence overseas. There is no help for the desperate here - unless you fit neatly into some special categories of the red tape. And when a person become homeless, the city forbids them from sleeping in their cars...

Talk about obstacles to work: Here in California, even a security guard job paying min wage requires a few hundred dollars in training and permit fees. Ridiculous.

http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2010/dec/10/wikileaks-vatican-child-sex-abuse-investigation Pope wants child sex abuse covered up, not investigated. Now I realized the holy man is a crook like any other politician. Problem is that he pretends to be holy and many believe him.

You are assuming that every freelancer knows the every details of the workaround for the crazy laws. Most of my friends who were also IT contractors simply have 6 months living expense or more set side in case of prolonged down time. 6 months is about the amount of regular unemployment benefits...

November deficit highest on record. Extending benefits indefinitely is bad. What is worse is the hundreds billions of bailout & give away to big banks and big business. Government bailed out the big guys with tax money, small business and little people trampled even more under the weight...

The comments at the end of the article were ridiculous, that does not invalidate the article itself.

Corporate thugs (CEOs and senior managementwith huge paycheck, bonus & perks) don't want to see employemnt rise. They want desperate workers competing for work at slavery wages, willing bend-over backwards or keep keep a job. The unemployment problem is STRUCTURAL. No amount have training...

Why is he not given bail? He turned himself. In any case, it was not a violent crime. He was accused of a special category of rape - using emotional pressure, not violence, may not meet the definition of rape in most countries. What he did may be immoral, but certainly not a good enough...

I was a "self-employed" freelancer in IT/software. I paid self-employment tax of about 11 or 12 % for social security. Self-employed contractors do not have unemployment insurance. I am missing out on all the wonderful extensions.

I read that ADHD can be treated with homeopathy. I am looking more into it, talked a homeopathy doc who prescribed some remedies. I am also reading up and and finding out more about it. Homeopathy does not have side effects and is relatively inexpensive. If it works, it would be great for...
