Situations change. Your idea only makes sense in a world where no one loses their jobs, no one gets sick or in a car accident and is unable to work. There is no cancer and No one dies. There are no widows with fatherless children, there are no families who are victims of crime.
Things happen every day to people who have children they could afford until one day something happens to them.
I am wasting my time talking to you.
Is there anyone else here who can see my point of view? I am seeing more and more Obama signs in front yards, mine included. I am working every single day in one way or another, phone calls and street canvassing on weekends.
Not all jobs offer health coverage. Yes it's true. Many people have jobs and work every day, but their employer does not offer coverage.
Usually the jobs that don't offer medical insurance do not pay a livable wage.
A 19 year old college student remains on his parent's medical plan as long as he is in school. If he decides to take a year off, to work or travel, he is no longer eligible.
What about pre-existing health conditions and trying to get insurance?
What about day workers? People who work for temporary agencies? They can't afford to buy private insurance, if they get accepted.
I don't like any thing McCain stands for.
I do like Obama's plan and what he stands for.
When hard working people must live in poverty because the economy is so out of balance and these hard working people have no access to basic health care, it brings the whole country down.
The country is only as strong as it's weakest link.
I heard McCain voted against health care for children and McCain. How can that be? Why would anyone in govt. NOT want children to have basic health care?
I did not say the prisoners used the internet. I said there was a website for them.
I DO NOT AGREE with this at all, but this is what I heard:
From what I understood on this program I saw, and they were referring to the convicted Peterson, who killed his wife and and unborn baby, they said:
Some guy runs a website. People (men & women both) in prison send him handwritten letters. Somehow this guy matches them up with singles on the outside who visit the website. Then they can begin writing handwritten letters to eachother. This is how a lot of those prisoners end up getting married.
I'm sure your son is old enough to choose his own friends, but maybe he needs a little guidance from you in choosing this kidnapper/assaulter as his friend.
Let's not forget that there is a person who runs a website for prisoners. He helps to match up "singles"
You can speak for yourself, but I'll share my opinions myself.
Just because I know Obama is the best candidate for president, does not mean I think violent criminals should be free.
I've been a victim of theft several times, I have no compassion for a thief, much less a violent person. I think they should be locked up with NO privileges.
Maybe next time you'd like to share my opinions, you'll get them from me.
He's right, harsh as it sounds. Besides, she needs to be prepared to move on when YOU are no longer here for her. It sounds like you've enabled her up to this point, so it's not fair to just suddenly move on, but gradually you should.
Look at it this way, you will help prepare her for her future by showing her now, by example to get on with life. You can be patient, but only so much. Don't let guilt get in the way of what you know is best for her and you.
Mr. Obama said he would give a $500 tax credit to more than 150 million workers, create a tax credit for homeowners who do not itemize their deductions and eliminate income taxes for older taxpayers who make less than $50,000 a year. To pay for the plan, he said he would raise capital gains taxes on the wealthy, close corporate loopholes and abolish tax breaks that have saved hedge fund and private equity managers billions of dollars.
Sylvester Stallone was a difficult birth, yanked from his mother's womb by a doctor's forceps that severed a facial nerve. As a result, the lower left side of his face is paralyzed, including parts of his lip, tongue, and chin, an accident which has given Stallone his trademark snarling look and slightly slurred speech.
