IF the USA does at some point decide to do a bigger war with boots on the ground - then it MUST be with a mandatory DRAFT?
We need to see the very rich who pull all the strings in our government send THEIR kids to all these wars in the middle east!
I feel these wars would end very quickly because they are really about price manipulation of oil- not 10,000 guys with black bags on their heads!
We are NOW an exporter of oil - so the competition now for lowest price is against the Middle East. Every time we lower our price- Saudi Arabia and others lower their to out do us.
What better way then a man made phoney conflict to keep prices high? It is working really well- just look at Wall Street in the past few days!
4 AnswersGovernment7 years agoCAN I go to the papers or New station with this proof of how crooked the can be?
Ok my friend has no lawyer - duh! He tried to pay and pay his out of state ex - ex kept playing games and refused payments. This is an out of state case for medical bills only for an 18 year in an ugly dispute.
Fast forward- he gets handed copy internal memos from lets us say "disillusioned case worker" at the office of support that EX sent notarized letter stating " I don't know the amounts of my support order and will allow with this contract for you to fill them in" which is utter BS - I saw the court order and EX has sent it to numerous people to remind everyone of hatred for EX and total slander- but that is sad and another issue.
Anyway my friend is NOT a deadbeat - just took to bank to get more money for ex and I know he paid 156,000 dollars- no back money owed at all just medical which he tried to work out amicably.
There are also some other ugly notes Ex wrote to workers in New York and New Jersey- could he take this case to the Media/papers to expose what I think is a scam of states to raise or change out of state orders ( the workers actually changed percentages on case before) when people are broke and can't afford lawyers. Workers are always like - "Oh you can just make payments"- sure interest, fees and higher rates included-lol Plus let us not forget the scam that says the Fe deral go vern ment will match dollar for dollar any back "arrea rs collected!" This makes cash strapped states money!
What a horrible system! What about the children ?

5 AnswersMilitary7 years agoWhy does Republican Representative Larry Lockman think RAPE should be legal as long as Abortion is legal?
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/02/28/lawrence-...
Larry the Republican from Maine claims in several articles that men should be able to use their superior power to force women to have sex with them because most rapes don't end up in death and since we can legally do abortions - everything will be fine?
Is this just another sleazy politician using their political power to excuse their friends and their own heinous crimes against women?
Using his line of thinking - then Bill Clinton's sexcapades are fine now?
7 AnswersElections7 years agoHow much would it cost to have people tear down and dispose of a mobile home ?
It can't be moved and it is 14 by 70 with no foundation only tie downs. The axles are broken and the hitch is gone and it is broken in half but mostly intact.
How much do you think a company that does this sort of thing would charge?
1 AnswerMaintenance & Repairs7 years agoIf everyone stopped breaking current laws on the books- would the government just create new laws to be broken or just falsify records?
Just imagine a world without crime.... Now think what would people do who work in all areas of law enforcement , courts and prisons to feed their families? What would lawmakers do with this dilemma?

3 AnswersUnited States7 years agoIf NRA keeps dissing Open Carry - who would win the GUN BATTLE?
How big is Open Carry at this time ( if we have records) and how would NRA call up its members for war?
7 AnswersPolitics7 years agoWhy do people call areas Gun Free Zones?
They don't exist. You would need to disarm an entire population like on the scale of North Korea- no mass gun shootings by civilians reported there.
In fact the USA has completely the opposite.We have more guns than people.
3 AnswersOther - Politics & Government7 years agoIf you choose not to wear a Kevlar suit or Open carry in Texas are you already one of the walking dead?
How are people going to live in that state who do not want to carry large weapons around? Will they have to migrate?
5 AnswersOther - Politics & Government7 years agoOpen Carry in Texas- is this the preview of Militias that will be running our streets?
On TV they show people in Texas carry large assault rifles in a Chili's Restaurant and a convenience store? It really looks like a war zone down in Texas- with the purpose to instill fear against average citizens?
Has it gotten that bad that people feel the need to carry such a highly visible amount of arms that to me looks just like Syria or other countries drowning in civil war? It looks REALLY BAD!
What are the REAL intentions of these people?
6 AnswersGovernment7 years agohttp://www.abc27.com/story/25703754/police-seize-mobile-home-used-in-alleged-heroin-sales?
Do you think taking the home before the conviction is justice?
Plus the twist in this is the fact that trailer parks do not allow older trailers back in Pa and even if the woman could find a park to take it if (Acquitted of the charges and the seized trailer returned ) she might financially not have a way to move and set up the trailer. It often costs thousands of dollars. ( Lawyers , jail and trials are very expensive) I am NOT SUPPORTING DRUG USE IN ANY WAY BUT
A zealous sheriff could clear out a poor people trailer park with just allegations no hard evidence . Think about it.
2 AnswersCurrent Events7 years agoDo you think Seizure laws are fair if someone deals drugs from their home?
I hear in some states they are really getting peoples homes quickly if drugs are being dealt from their home - BEFORE the person is convicted of dealing drugs?
I am NOT supporting drugs sales but BEFORE ? convictions?
To me it would make more sense to give a person a fair chance of a trial and conviction before you take their cars and home.
Plus how does that help society or it that just to help greedy local governments who are strapped for cash?
How do you know you could be framed by the police and your nice car just taken ?
4 AnswersLaw & Ethics7 years agoHow can you find out If your ex has a life insurance policy on you from 18 years ago?
Friend has had a bitter divorce and sort of remembers a life insurance policy taken (not sure of the company) out on him at the time ( for the children) well he has paid all his support and Ex lives alone 2000 miles away now.
But he still fears she might come back and kill him for the policy if she needs money bad enough.
His children moved away from her because she is psychotic in 2012 and they know there is a policy but everything was always locked up like Fort Knox so how could he find out?
He really would like to cancel it but he let her hold the policy on him ( it was dirt cheap back then) and he never thought things would end up with her so hateful and mean- he's a really nice guy!
"
(I think the insurance industry should ONLY allow the person who the policy is on to be the "policy holder"- my guess is MANY people would not be Murdered each year if this was the case!)
Like him - I don't think most people realize this.
4 AnswersLaw & Ethics7 years agoFlorida and Pennsylvania have the most SINK HOLES and also the most OLD PEOPLE?
DO you think there is a reason? Should we gather all the old people over the beds of limestone, run the water and wait for the earth to open up?

5 AnswersOther - Politics & Government7 years agoWhat upsets you more? Big Donors to campaigns or Politicians who accept this money?
People seem to dislike the big Donors of big money even more than the Politicians who accept the money and kiss big donor butt.
Is it because they jeopardize our democracy or just because they are Rich people with extreme views that seem to be blocking any chance at change?
3 AnswersElections7 years agoChristian vs Muslim charity for the homeless?
We know of many Christian charities in the USA that offer services to the homeless. They pretty much force Christianity on the poor - you must go to services to receive a ticket to eat dinner every night or be present for prayers to get a blanket for your bed etc. Sure they will claim to not "force" religion on the poor but I am sure it is pretty hard to buck a system that is run this way when people are so desperate!
We refuse to donate to these places- not that we don't want to help the homeless - just can't accept the methods they use. Would rather buy a guy on the street a pair of shoes or give them some food (we have done both btw)
Why are there little to none as far as Muslim/ Islamic Charities? Do they exist? Are they not accepted by the United States of America or is it something else? I would like to know if they force their religion also?
