    You must not live in the US. We have quite the background check system here. It even stopped a 54 year old man from getting a gun, because he was convicted of stealing 2 dollars worth of beer when he was 20. Not that he served time for that offense, either.

    How do you determine someone is a cancer patient? Ask them? People can lie. Ask for documentation? Well the parent was railing against that too. So we either search everyone or we search no one. I'd rather be safe than sorry.

    well if he's a determined suicide bomber ( and you'd have to be suicidal to wanna even get enar a dirty bomb) he'd hide it on his body somewhere.

    Whoa now. Back the conspiracy truck up. adjust the tinfoil cap. ok, better? Let's stop searching everyone. Let's allow everyone unfettered access to where ever. The subway, your house, my house. but when the bomb goes off and we're all obliterated, well, on second thought, let's search people, in PUBLIC PLACES.

    when they have one down the street already! I see more "former" Wal-Mart's than I do open ones. All of them empty dinosaurs of wasted, asphalted, land!

    Hell, our Wal-mart, was built on Old Route 6, which became Old becomes teh new Route 6 needed to be 4 lanes, etc. Well now that Wal-mart is here and brought along alot of other retail, Old Route 6 needs to be expanded. To 5 lanes. So 20 years ago, a new road needed built, but now the old can be retrofit? Of course when Wal-mart pulls out and build somewhere else, that 5 lane road to nowhere will be really nice to uh, cruise on.

    Oops, yeah. and I should have said "Not that, I as a republican wouldNOT enjoy a nice"

    Not that, you as a republican, can really take the moral high ground. After all, you did vote for the worst president since Reagan...oh wait, you probably voted for him too!

    His term is not even over and he's already the worst since Reagan? And no I am not a Democrat so there was no way I could have voed for Reagan. ( I was 12 at the time).

    That leaves about $1550. Unless your friend reinvests part of that into the company, Uncle Sam gets about 1/3rd of that, or about $520. Let's be fair though. Uncle Sam also gets 1/3 of his $300.

    I'd wager that business taxes are higher than personl incomde taxes. And if not, there is no way that 300 dollars is being taxed at 33%.

    Call me pedantic: but Faced with a loss of control over ordinary citizens, President Jenna Bush imposes mandatory ID tatooing and all babies receive an injected RFID module.

    Jenna would be one year too young to be President. In 2012, it'll probably be ( gag me) Hillary Clinton.
