The GDP of a country is finite, if there are several billionaires removing their capital from that figure how much does it impact the overall economic well-being of a country?

How could you make it a better place if you knew you were going to pass away in the next 15 minutes?

Would you rather be in a zoo where people where stopping and checking you out all day where you were provided with 3 squares a day?

Or

Would you rather be in the wild where you might be eaten by a predator, your survival was up to you, and you weren't guaranteed anything which you couldn't take care of yourself?

I've been wondering lately, why in the world doesn't Yahoo have a 360 link on their homepage? It's very irritating if I want to get to my 360 page to have to sign in some other place to get there. I'm wondering if anyone else is as frustrated, irritated, and annoyed by this oversight as I am?

You've been working for a company for a number of months. A new receptionist is hired who is unfriendly. You're friendly and polite. Over a period of months, you've determined that the receptionist hates the sight of you through a series of interactions ranging from biting your head off to completely ignoring you. Until one day, the receptionist finally tells you after asking how they are doing in a coarse tone to not talk to them for no reason. What do you do?

A. Nothing

B. Write a formal letter of complaint and submit it to management

C. Continue to be friendly and disregard the hateful response to your "How are you doing today." While determining to embark on a passive-aggressive tact of killing with kindness.

D. None of the above(Explain)

Don't you think that our current social environment is truly a crux of values, technologies, morality, and ethics. We're poised to accomplish most anything that we could possibly wish to, yet we're so bogged down with our pop culture icons.

The common man and woman, doesn't realize where we are in our development. They don't see what we could accomplish as a whole, instead we're still squabbling over skin color, over the particulars of our individual urges, and our beliefs in a higher power.

It seems like there's a lot of people walking around on this planet who have no sense of humor about things in general. Why in the world shouldn't we enjoy this time that we're given on this rock as much as we can, however that we can? Even if it involves nonsense, silly walks, and other things which have little or no importance in relation to academic issues, philosophical questions, ideological debate, pregnancy, lucid dreaming, or junior high relationship issues?

How would it make you feel if the government one day mandated that you could only use one religious text(Bible, Qua'ran, Bhagavad-Gita, Tao Te Ching) for your worship?

Are there any classes being taught currently that elucidate children to the inter-workings of our governmental systems? Anyone in high school or Junior High familiar with "Checks and Balances" or The 3 Branches of Government.

There seems to be more terrible drivers on the road lately than normal. What factors do you think are contributing to this?
