We have limited resources. The government will have to decide who lives and who dies at some point... along with who gets to have children, and what quality of life we can afford.
What's sad is when I see people of all stripes who trot out straw men, assuming that there is no other way of paying for health care other than using the state to take the money from other people.
thinkers or leaders or writers
I'd prefer engineers, scientists, or artists. We're already doling it out to the politicians and liberal arts "Occupiers".
The problem is that 25 year olds are not "kids", and anyone in their mid-20s (presumably with a Bachelor's degree) should not be riding on the backs of the public.
We're trying to save fuel, which Europeans apparently aren't concerned about even though their cars are no more efficient and fuel costs twice as much.

Also, in case it's not obvious, Israel is an ally and Iran repeatedly threatens to wipe them off the map... literally. Allies are allies with the assumption that they will assist each other. Achmadinejad backs up his threats against Israel with citations from the Qur'an about killing Jews. If he were a Christian citing the Bibe, then maybe Slashdot would have a problem with that.
I'm not seeing anything in your post that's the bank's fault. Of course we can't guarantee any of that... and that's actually part of the risk for the bank as well, because they probably don't want your house! They want your money!
Most pro-abortion types don't actually care about people's rights to their bodies... they care about the rights of the state (the federal government). Even people who are pro-choice should oppose the Roe v. Wade decision because it was de facto unconstitutional.
Oh please... are you people STILL claiming this? Florida law required a machine recount, which was performed. Gore asked for hand recounts in three heavily Dem counties-- he got them. The Florida Supreme Court ordered a second machine recount, which was NOT lawful. THIS is what the US Supreme Court overruled.
Uh... make your mortgage payments, and they can't touch it. Is this too complex? Should they be expected to be a charity, and let you stop making payments indefinitely? By the way, it used to be that a bank could call in a loan-- that is, ask for the remaining balance to be paid immediately-- at just about any time. Just about every loan was a demand note. Now THAT'S "loan sharking".
Oh, you're paying the actual cost of building the house, but you're also paying for the oversupply of money available to anyone with a pulse. Houses and higher education are both ridiculously expensive compared to before the Depression, thanks to cheap loans.
The $150-350 Selmans and Weimars on eBay are not very playable. They have chronic problems with valve action. The pistons are made of monel and usually start sticking after only a few months because you can't make monel on the cheap.
This crap makes me very happy I play brass instruments. Forgeries of vintage trumpets like early Martin Committees and Olds Recordings are difficult to make. The "fake" horns on eBay are mostly bogus Chinese sound-a-like marques ("Selman" instead of "Selmer") or amusingly bad Indian replicas of vintage cornets that have misspelled or conflicting markings ("Boosey" and "Bessons" marked on the same instrument). Unfortunately, the few suckers for these aren't professional musicians, but often ignorant parents who are trying to get something playable for their kids to start on.
The founding fathers realized they may have made mistakes... that's why the Constitution has a process for amending itself. But progressives do not like using this process. Therefore, they instead set up straw men ("Constitutionalists think it is untouchable") or ad hominems ("the founders held slaves", "the founders didn't allow women to vote") to convince people to allow them to surreptitiously mold the government through unconstitutional legislation and "legislation from the bench".

No, he means that the last model of Crown Vic had a 4.6L V8.

Obviously, not true for many, if not most people.
Have you tried an extender and/or a clip?
I personally prefer "frumious bandersnatch", despite it not being the "cliche", it sounds "frumious".
Republicans are in charge of all those cities? Check again.

You mean like Belarus?
So you want the USA to invade Saudi Arabia and Bahrain?

WRONG. They DID DO A MACHINE RECOUNT as required by Florida law. PERIOD. Now stop.

Their economy is a WMD.

No, that's voluntary servitude. A person can walk away from that "contract" at any time.
How's that?
