5 AnswersGovernment1 decade agoWhy is the US Govt. spending $147 Million Dollars for Brazil cotton farmers?
If that sounds implausible or insane, well, welcome to U.S. agricultural policy, where the implausible and the insane are the routine.

18 AnswersReligion & Spirituality1 decade agoWhat is wrong with racial profiling?
If a bank gets robbed and the suspect is a white male in 30’s with a mustache and red hat. What is the description on TV? A male robbed a bank today – we get more information on the getaway vehicle than we do the suspect.
