    Seriously guys $7 per hour is not worth even considering and you wouldn't unless there was absolutely nothing else !! I don't like Socialism much but companies have gotta share the rewards more fairly. You either have a team effort OR the management screwing the workers battle ! Which do you...

    About the US System

    I guess it gets easier with practice spending other peoples' money from taxation ! The pain of seeing others suffer soon ebbs away. Strange how costs and "must haves" go up in good times in direct proportion to what one has but not down again in bad times.

    About the US System

    If you want to see the USA's probable future look no further than California. They are reaping the rewards of selfish greed, high living and over rewarding themselves at the top. Too mean to share the bounty of wealth by paying a bit more tax. Too demanding in handouts for as little...

    The medics are as greedy as everyone else and will play on your anxieties to gouge you for more MONEY, especially in the West

    Girlfriends & Trading

    Interesting to see HOW much you are worth to her !! Say something like you are broke and need her to pay you $100 per week. She either flounces out or agrees. Keep raising it until she objects and then you'll know what you are worth for yourself

    Is it a crime in the US if you know of a crime being committed and not telling the authorities ? If so, then Ruth Madoff and sons are guilty too

    Madoff Seeks Leniency at Fraud Sentencing

    Glad to see Madoff's wife has been forced to give back some money. How and when will they distribute it ? Will it be given back as per need ? ( like the lady forced to look in the garbage bins for food ) or by size of loss, where the wealthier and less in need will get more ?

    California's empty Wallet: Turning crisis into opportunity!

    My guess is that the politicians worried about votes will try and spend their way out of this crisis. Gordon Brown of UK holds these socialist views. He is now proposing to GIVE another 100 billion to the 3rd world to help them with their energy needs, while Britain is falling apart. Quite...
