    George Bush. The guy that created entirely new sections of government to rule over our freedoms?

    He is a lot like Barrack Obama. The guy who created entirely new sections of government to rule over our freedoms.

    They are different.George seemed to have a bit more respect for the people. Nice enough guy I would guess. But they both are responsible for spearheading a campaign to remove freedoms from the people. They both damaged the country. The real difference is that Obama still has time to screw more stuff up.

    Again. I really appreciate the way you show your humanity and good will. It is really nice to know that certain segments of the population like to personally attack those they do not agree with. The cool part though is how those are the very same people that preach tolerance and loving everyone equally.

    You are one of those people, right? Everyone must be tolerant of every life style there is. And if you do not agree we will destroy you.

    As for what charities I give to ... I give to a local program that helps drug addicted women with children and I give to a well known religious organization that helps people in need and during disasters. I am not a member of that religion but I do appreciate their work. I think they do a lot of good. I do not give large amounts of money. I give what I can afford and still have some fun and provide for my family. There are many that give more and there are people that give to a higher pain threshold than I do.

    But you just go on with your life hating those who think differently than you do all the while screaming for tolerance. We do find it amusing.

    People die because they made a bad choice. The care is there. Theft is theft. Is it suddenly ok because the big bully on the block wants to take your money?

    Because taxes are taken and not given it is the responsibility of a government to only take what is needed. To take fairly. Once that care is removed from the equation there are problems. Greece, Spain, France are all suffering because the people are too dependent upon its government. The government meant well each time it handed out a new entitlement. But over time people want more and more done for them and do less and less for themselves.

    This is not a good thing. I give to charities that offer hand ups. Not hand outs. I am of service to my community. I take care of my family. These are good things that need to not be drummed out of the public mind. You can say that they are not, but you would be wrong.

    The people of the US are the most charitable people in the world. Those that identify as more conservative give a larger percentage of their wealth and time to charities. Those that argue that governments need to do more give less. They feel really good about it though.

    I am so glad that you started right out showing everyone how superior you are to me. Since that is how you will continue to feel good about yourself go right ahead. Continue on your path. You have every right to feel good about yourself for what you want to make those around you do.

    They don't die. They go deep into debt.

    You just keep telling yourself that "Health Insurance" and Health Care" are the same thing. Even though they are not. If the government wants to open special hospitals and offer free care they are more than welcome too. Just stop fucking with my Health Insurance to do it. They will not do that though. Because the costs could not be hidden and blamed on others. The cost of offering "Free" healthcare to anyone who wants it would be way to visible.

    Give to charity you will feel better. It works better as well. Just stop thinking that you are a better person than me because you are more willing to steal other peoples money than I am.

    They are causing no harm that anyone can prove. They offer jobs. People take them. You are the one that wants them to "Mitigate" harm that no one has proved that they are doing. How would you like them to do that? Is it your opinion that anytime anyone thinks that the company may be causing harm with no proof that the company should respond by changing all kinds of stuff or be threatened?

    That might work. Of course costs will skyrocket as competitors and people who just do not like companies start flinging far fetched ideas. But those costs can me mitigated by lowering labor costs and raising the price of all the things people are buying.

    A few poor people losing their jobs won't hurt much. The rich can pay a little more with no notice of it what so ever. The poorer people might be hurt. Of course we could charge people more money for things if they have more money. For those of us with no money things could be free. Then the poor will not be impacted by the higher prices and all will be fair.

    No, I'm saying put them on notice that they will be held fully accountable if there turns out to be something to this report. That will encourage them tio make damned sure it's really not an issue. If it's actually not, they can just do nothing and it's all just fine.

    You weren't thinking of shifting the burden of responsibility for their actions onto the public, were you?

    That sounds a lot like you want the burden of them not doing something wrong to be on them.

    I'm not suggesting condemnation, just mitigation. One might HOPE Amazon would be quite willing to make adjustments because it's the right thing to do. Failing that, make sure they know they will be on the hook financially and see if that motivates change. Only then dig deeper and see if any of their practices deserve an outright ban.

    Meanwhile, I'm sure plenty of Amazon workers have been diagnosed with something. That is true of any large company and doesn't necessarily mean the company caused it. Unfortunately with mental illness it is usually not possible to determine an exact cause. Sorta like you often have no idea who gave you the miserable cold and even if you are 'pretty sure' it's just a good guess./p.

    Sooo. You are saying threaten them first and if they don't make life all roses for all the people working there then look to see if you can actually pin something on them?

  17. Gravity compresses the star that compression is what creates the fusion that drives a star. The fusion wants to blow the star up. The gravity and the fusion work together for a while and you have a stable star. Once the fuel gets low the fusion slows. That expansive force dies out and gravity begins to win. It further compresses the star and can start fusing much heavier elements together this however is bad for the health of the star and results in things like supernova explosions when the mass of the star is high enough.

    I am sure that name calling without facts is grown up.

    And childish in your opinion is obviously ... Realizing that there are 3 types of officers.

    1. Bad, evil, criminal ones. (A small percentage)

    2. Cops that turn a blind eye to the evil the bad ones do.

    3. New Cops that want to serve the public in the best way they can.

    I think that a good percentage of police start out being number 3. The problem is that in order to keep your job you must become number 2 at the least. Once you start turning a blind eye to the crimes going on around you because they are cops you are NOT a good cop.
