Being against illegal immigration is not the same as being against immigration. I believe that the whole immigration process for the US needs to be revamped and simplified. 10 year long waits and thousands of dollars is absurd. I also think that people who can't be bothered with folloing the laws of this country should not be rewarded for it. Why should anybody bother following our immigration laws if all they have to do is walk across the border?
If requiring a picture ID is inherently discriminatory then why is it ok to as for it before selling tobacco or alcohol? Isn't this institutional discrimination? Does is purposely try to prevent minorities from purchasing legal products? Why has the NAACP ignored this relic of racism?
Voter registration is checked by comparing the name you give to the name on a list. The Democrats have stopped every effort to require any type of identification as proof that you have the name you say you have. A bunch of retarded people who will give the name you tell them are a great way to do this. Smart enough to follow directions and foolish enough to never know it was a bad thing or become a whistlblower.
Professors don't want you to turn in a concise well worded paper. They want a paper that is a set length regardless of the necessity of the argument. This teaches people to write five pages of inane fluff for each page of actual information.
From what I've had for professors university has nothing to do with original thought or development of new ideas. The professors get grant to pay them to do that. The students are supposed to soak up whatever diatribe or unworkable in the real world social theory they want to push and you are supposed to parrot it back. If your good at that you'll have a 4.0 when you graduate.
How about, if I vote for such and such he promises to make the punishment very lax when I stab the little old lady. People who have been convicted of breaking the law don't really need to be deciding the punshment for breaking the law.
The current method has the advantage of making election fraud more significantly more difficult. Right now in a safe state for eaither party there isn't much point in faking votes. Those extra votes won't do you any good. But in a contested area both parties are looking very hard for any issues that could be, or could be made to look like, election fraud. If you go off of a direct election, besided undoing the great compromise that created this country by balancing the power of rural and urban states, it becomes much eaiser to commit fraud. The areas where a party has a complete lock at the local level, Tamney Hall in the 1800's or Chicago during the 60's and 70's, are the eaisest place to prevent whistle blowers and get away with cheating.
I really like opitcal scan ballots. They make the counting fast and efficient yet the machines are simple enough that it is hard to tamper with them. In addition all the votes can be recounted by hand very simply when required.
In an effective society they would be swinging from a tree limb thus providing saftey for the public and saving the costs feeding them for years on end.
Yes, your credit situation is not one of the the big three things security clearance investigations look at for no reason. It is based on statistics. How trustworthy you are, how reliable you are are things that can be infered based on credit combined with other information. It the job of the HR person to take all the information into account and try to find the best people for the job. They tend to have a hard time finding people with proper technical skills because they don't understand the technical side of the house. But they better understand how find trends in a credit history. Thats their job.
People lived for hundreds of years without airconditioning. Its not a requirment. I know, I live in Alabama and I've gone summers with no airconditioning so I could make good on my obligations.
I can penelize them because I've seen them. I've listened to them figure out how long they can keep that big screen without making any payments. I've seen them spend $200 on a pair of shoes while defaulting on the credit card. Many people start out without much money. The ones who stay that way stay that way for a reason. I bought my house at 23 making 20k a year because I didn't go to rent-a-whatever and trick out my apartment. My brother makes a lot more than me and has horrible credit but real nice looking furniture in his apartment. I have old worn out furniture in my house.
A lack of credit shouldn't keep you from getting a job. It will probably be considered a plus. You are so responsible that you don't need to borrow money. It will keep you from getting a loan later since the bank has no way to differentiate you from the 19 year old straight out of high school. All the obvious was to differentiate you, such as your age, are considered unlawful discrimination.
Someone who makes over a $100,000 is living very well in Alabama but in the DC area or New York can't get out of a condo with less than an hour long commute. As far as the million in assets goes virtually any farmer or small business owner exceeds that and very few of them pull down $100,000 per year in income.
Also I've noticed a lot of people are upset about Enron and all the other corporate scandals that were uncovered during the Bush administration. What isn't mentioned very often is that virtually all of the scams, Enron without a doubt, could not have even been attempted if the businesses paid dividends. All the accounting sleight of hand doesn't matter when the shareholder cashes that check. Most business don't pay dividends because the capital gains taxes make it unprofitable when compared with share price growth. Have you ever noticed that no company stops at what they are good at and just makes money off that? That's because just making money reliably is unprofitable. The share price must go up thus the company must grow. So there is more to cutting capital gains than helping Paris Hilton. If it is cut enough you will replace the need to show growth with a check that can't be faked. You will also remove the driving factor in a lot of the ill advised corporate mergers and corporate decisions to expand until collapse.
Could you define rich please. I promise that a rich person in many parts of the country only has a middle class income if they are in NY or DC. Also if you think the government needs more money you can write a check any time you want. The account for gifts to the United States has been around for about 150 years.
You can also remove the government monopoly on trash disposal. Charge a per kilo cost to dispose of rubbish at the land fill and let private enterprise do the rest. People who are real cheap will deliver the trash to the ladfill themselves. Others will start businesses and provide the service for much less than the city currently does.
Blue Ray is a lot like Betamax. Technically it is slightly better, If I rember right about 6 gigs of additional storage room on the disk. But also, just like Betamax, the difference is small enough to not really matter to 90% of the people out there.
Men naturally size up women, women naturally size up men. You may not like but it is ingrained for the perpetuation of the species. Taking the measure in all aspects to include physical is done by everybody to everybody everytime a meeting takes place.
But you forget that harassment is in the eyes of the accuser. What you meant means nothing. If she says no and percieves that you stop talking to her, avoid her, or do anything she wants to construe that way she has a legitimate claim to a hostil environment.
I think you missed the point. The idea is to target different games to different types of players. Money can be made off of every type of gamer but the game design and business model needs to be different. For the dormant gamer who wants to play more but doesn't have the time games with a lot of save points and clearly defined phase lines are needed. That way the dormant gamer can fit in 20 or 30 minutes here and there. Most MMOs today make there money off of casual gamers but are imposable for a dormant gamer to play. For a game targted for a hardcore gamer you probably will want to get them to run their own servers. This is already done with lot the FPS games. Its even marketed as a plus to the gamers.
This is how all artists made there living until about a century ago. This kind of system created all the great artistic masters of history and fed the millions throughout time we have never hear of.

That is a union kind of setup. That kind of work looks takes a lot of labor hours to both set up and maintain. Ohh its pretty too.

Proprietary rioting would be the government staged demonstrations you see on the news in most third world countries.

companies worry about the place that buys the most. They will care about Europe when Europeans purchase quantities worth caring about.
