  • While he was with Bain Capital, Romney closed companies and invested millions offshore. Is this right for US?

    Offshore investing to avoid taxes. That's something Bain Capital did for investers while Romney was there. Leveraged company buyouts that laid off thousands of workers was Mitt's expertise. He is worth a quarter Billion $. Can any American who knows this background support Romney? Who thinks he can fix what's wrong in America when he has been part of the problem for decades?

  • Do you approve of Mexican trucks in America?

    They are now in country:

    "Friday, Oct. 21, was the first day of the new Mexican cross-border trucking program – with a Mexican truck hauling a load of industrial equipment nearly 600 miles from Nuevo Leon, Mexico, to Garland, TX."

    I have emailed congressmen and women in the three states I have standing to do so. All say they are against it. Why does it still get approved and move forward? Drug cartels must be very, very happy. Have you contacted your congressional representatives to protest? If not, don't be mad when the news media reports the inevitable results.

  • Have you written your senators?

    Mexican based trucks will soon be driving freight up into the US. The drug cartels must be so happy. Now they will have big semi rigs to bring dope over the border every day. So what if the overwhelmed border security catches one a week? 20 others get through. Should have renegotiated NAFTA instead of allowing their truckers to take our jobs. Our two faced government says they want to create jobs but at the same time give ours to Mexico. The genie is almost out of the bottle, once out, never to go back. I have written my senators several times, have you?

  • Why does America get charged for Arab oil?

    America's military has been defending this region for decades. They certainly have the wealth to have their own fighting forces, why do our men and women do it for them? Do the Arab nations we defend give us a break on the oil they sell to us? What would their countries look like if we did not protect them from those who would destroy their nations? We should be getting a huge discount for our efforts.

  • Yahoo Answers lists over 314,000 open questions?

    But if you go through them, by the time you get to page 30 you realize they repeat over and over. Maybe there are only 150 questions. Question is: would you like to have Yahoo Answer filter questions so that there is just one occurrence of each question?
