Why is lying to Congress, under oath or not, worse than lying to taxpayers and voters?
Committing perjury to Congress and The Courts, is a felony with a sentence of up to 5 years.
Lying to taxpayers and voters? No Legal consequences at all.
And yet, it's mostly the taxpayers and voters that install these people into our government.

If you ask me, our elected Congressional and Senatorial Representatives are certainly wealthy enough to pay for their own Health Care - Instead of having us Taxpayers pay for it - what on earth are they doing for us as representatives to earn or deserve FREE Healthcare when they vote against anybody else getting it? Please stay on topic with your answers.
4 AnswersGovernment8 years agoWould You Have Called The Police or Should A Manager at Least Question This Guy?
In light of the Boston Marathon Bombing, our ongoing War Against Terror, and the whole "If you see something, say something - even if you're not sure if there's a danger or not" policy these days, would you have called the police if you saw what I saw today?
As I'm entering a McDonalds, a guy enters before me with a backpack across one of his shoulders, with an object inside this backpack as large as a pressure cooker. It turns out he's an employee because he walks right behind the counter and by other workers there. Nobody says a word about his bulging backpack.
I was tempted to ask the manager but since none of his co-workers said anything, I thought to myself as I drove away - well, if I hear of an explosion some time today in this area, I'll report what I saw then. So I saw something but said nothing
4 AnswersLaw Enforcement & Police8 years agowhich of these cause stress and, how or why?
girlfriend issues:
holding hands or wanting to walk arm-in-arm
asking inane questions - possibly to make a point or to even just talk to spark something related
kissing in front of others - friends, public - not a full-on make out always, sometimes a respectable lip smack
being silly - this is in the eyes of the beholder, isn't it?
favors requested - as i do many when she requests them as well
perspective comments - trying to look at situations from all sides, not just hers
trying to be humorous or make smile - see being silly?
reminding of promises unfulfilled - well meant, but never coming to fruition
wanting to help or support - is this thought of as smothering or crowding?
you could really help with the right answers - and maybe save a beautiful thing

6 AnswersPolitics9 years agoWho doesn't like to see people have success?
I remember when I first heard about the earnings gap between workers and CEOs in the USA. I thought, good for them - but when you realize that these CEOs were capitalizing on, among other things, War Profits, People's Health, Resource extractions - while being the largest Pollution-causing corporations, Privatization of our Prisons and then packing them to overfilled, Students Credit to begin their working lives in debt already.
And they shipped our jobs overseas and got bonuses for doing so, most free from taxation or paying very little, or put in tax shelters in the Caymans, Swiss Banks, and others we probably don't even know of to avoid paying their share of taxes and not seeming to care about going in to debt with China..
They are forever attempting to reduce benefits on "workers" for being, unfortunately unemployed, raising a family, in poor health, hungry, at the mercy of acts of God, people who are underwater on their mortgages because Wall Street is legal gambling with "worker's" pensions and savings.
Because some corporations provide services for the "workers", these people that gained Success in these ways, should be made to profit some, above- breaking even, but never double, triple or 300% profits.
All "workers" want is Accountability - and a fair Congress
9 AnswersPolitics9 years agoTo ALL Million Hoodie'ers: is Walmart, Jeb Bush, and the NRA accountable?
I can sympathize with them wanting George Zimmerman and the Police Chief accountable, but look at the Lobbyists for Walmart to flood everywhere with arms and the NRA to govern it, and Bush signing the Right to Defend Law.
Do you think that those entities could be touched in any legal way by this tragedy?

6 AnswersPolitics9 years agoWould you agree to a world jubilee of all debt forgiveness at the same time, no bankers, CEOs get prosecuted?
