Reply to Kerry’s Box in Philosophy JoeUser Forums

I watched Kerry last evening. He talked to Ohians about what most Ohians care about right now. Unfortunately, when your own little world is crumbling around you, it is harder to look at the bigger picture. I believe he could win in Ohio just on his stand about outsourcing, prescriptions, and the cost of college, even if he was boxed in about Iraq. I talked with a woman about Iraq and other things going on in the world, and she said "look, I don't care.

I'm sorry about all of your troubles, but glad that you got your home. My mother used to say the devil sat on our roof and decided that the devil was actually my father, lol. I hope things calm down for you and you get the chance to just be.

Awww, now draginol, I'm almost positive my ignorance has some bounds! Now, you know as well as I do that welfare recipients work for the help they get. And that there would be less of them if more communities were in favor of a living wage. Corporate welfare can't even be compared with social welfare. This is a really good article,kingbee, that I was very happy to see. People need to learn about this. <img src="../images/smiles/smile.g

Reply to Killed On Their 47th Anniversary in Current Events JoeUser Forums

What a tragedy. I bet we have more in jail for traffic violations than for drunk driving. "In 2002, 17,419 people were killed in crashes involving alcohol, representing 41 percent of the 42,815 people killed in all traffic crashes, according to NHTSA data." http://www.madd.org/home/~ a good way to get involved.

It would be nice if he listened to others. Hopefully, he will soon be gone and others can start trying to clean up the many messes he left behind. Good article!

Draginol - the main propaganda that I do not and never will buy into is the conservative propaganda. Please feel free to show where I have ever said there should be higher taxes, more programs.

For fiscal years 2002-2004, state governments filled approximately $200 billion in budget gaps by raising state taxes and fees and by cutting services. And during those same years, newly enacted federal tax cuts delivered about as much money -- $197.3 billion -- in new tax breaks for the wealthiest one percent of Americans (households making more than $337,000 a year). Amazingly, in 2002, Americans in the bottom 20 percent of households paid

It is wonderful that some can find ways to make it on their own. However, there is nothing weak or wrong in sometimes asking for help. The ones that need it most should not be made to feel horrible because they need a little help. Another excellent one stevendedalus !
