  2. My idea for budget cuts should read this you will agree...

    in Political Arena - The one and ONLY place on this board to talk politics.

    Posted · Edited by Tek

    before I get to my arguing, I am going to say that I agree with your ideas. But I DO think that no elected official should ever make more money than the average soldier. Whether that be obtained through cutting government salaries, raising soldier salaries, or a mix of both, I think that is how it should be.

    But we shouldn't touch the budget for planned parenthood, i mean my tax dollars should definitely pay for some ones birth control or abortion.

    I don't know whether or not you are a conservative, but since this is generally a conservative idea, I am going to discuss it.

    Planned Parenthood can provide condoms/birth control to those who can't otherwise afford it (among other reasons). Conservatives are against funding this. They are also against abortion. So now, not only can you not get an abortion (which may or may not be a mad thing), but you can't take an action that will prevent the abortion to begin with. So at this point you are pregnant and have no choice but to give birth to the baby. Guess what? No health care for you, because it is a privilege and not a right. So you pay thousands of dollars to birth this baby. Well, after the baby is born, than it will be easier to manage personal finances, right? wrong, because guess who isn't getting welfare/bridge cards/food stamps/wic! I mean, why give it to them? they need to work for it.

    I understand the "if you don't want a kid than you shouldn't have sex" argument, but you wouldn't go to China a few years back and say "if you don't want sars, don't breathe." Everybody does it. It is hypocritical to say that. And with that said: /rant

    *EDIT* if anybody has called Obama a communist as an insult, than you are a hypocrite if you agree with this. Because after all, Capitalism never limits ones income

    This debt is what stimulates the world.

    One must realize that this money is never going to be payed back. Other countries know it as the U.S does, but in a sense this "debt" keeps peace between several countries, because it allows them to solve problems through diplomacy, rather than tactical warfare.

    Countries will never attempt to reclaim this money because other than China, there is no real threat. The reason I say China won't attempt to claim this money is because they'd lose out on trillions of dollars in profit because it would end trade with China period. Sanctions from either countries can cause immediate collapse of countries and an uprising for change of government. Just look at Iran.

    sanctions are to loosely enforced to make a difference in the world today. American businesses are constantly dealing with Iran, as are other countries. Despite what our government tells us here in the United States, the Iranians like their government and generally approve of them.

  6. Could somebody fix the colors for me?

    long story behind this logo, but that isn't important. If possible, it would be GREATLY appreciated if somebody could do me the enormous favor or changing the color of this to the following:

    -the green needs to consistently be the exact same shade of green (a bright lime green)

    -I would like the outline of the entire logo to be a consistent royal blue (as opposed to the current silver/blue)

    -I need the background to be white/colorless so it can get embroidered as opposed to the shitty black remnants of the last background

    once again, I want to thank whoever ends up doing this for me.

    here is the image:

    Whats your budget?

    I was looking in the for sale and want to buy section for a reasonable price, but I couldn't find a listing. I would much rather prefer to get it used, what would YOU say is fair? I can get brand new for just over 300.

    theres very few that dont manipulate it. tons of welfare mother fuckers getting tons of my tax money. they need to regulate shit like how many kids you can have ect. i mean dont get me wrong if you can support 5 kids by all means have em. i just dont like supporting peoples fuck ups. i made $39k this year paid $5k in federal and tons in social sec. ect. i got back $2400 cause i had shit for my house as a write off. theres people with 5 kids that paid $2k maybe into federal and they get back $7k wtf???? how can you get more then you paid in? oh because you have to support 5 unwanted kids. FUCK that. the gov needs to regulate this bullshit.

    I wouldn't say most of them manipulate it. I have a lot of friends and see A LOT of people that receive government aide in terms of welfare, social security, section 8, and other forms of public housing. With the exception of a very select few,

    on a side note. it is a tragedy what happened in japan, and libya is a shithole. but why do we continue to help other countries. destroy their shit and then rebuild it for them..... and get nothing in return thats all im asking.

    a member just listed a HUGE list of countries that have helped us financially.
