Who does our elected Representatives in Washington work for?
Who does or Congressmen and Senators work for Obama or we the people that voted for them? Why then do they mostly democrats seem to do what seems to be against what the people want? Don't they understand who elected them?

Many work for their own personal interests but the "C Street" Cabal of Republicans apparently think they work for God.
2 :
The ones that put them in office.....Big Business.

They have to hear from you to know what you are thinking. Do your part and write them. Scream if you have to. As for the Republicans, well they are out voted, they can't stop anything without the Dem supporters changing some minds up there.

How do season tickets work? Washington Capitals specifically
How do season tickets work? Washington Capitals specifically?
I've never had season tickets before, but they look interesting. I need to know the ins and outs of the whole business. Example, do I have to pay for all games? etc. etc. etc.

yes you have to pay for every home game, you can probably get partial season ticket plans though. I would assume there is some kind of waiting list for season tickets to the Caps though.
2 :
Yes i think you need to pay for all regular season games and you get tickets to then. I believe there is usually a LONG waiting list though, despite the amount of money that people are paying for season tickets. It's ridiculously expensive but I guess a lot of people think it's worth it.

Osama bin Laden is now dead, can we finally bring our kids home
Osama bin Laden is now dead, can we finally bring our kids home?
My son works for Army intelligence in Kuwait and he says they intercepted a secret message from Al-Qaeda to all the terrorists to stop fighting because the Jihad is now over. It said that when Osama bin Laden saw that Hillary Clinton or Obama could be our next President, he died laughing. As he was rolling on the floor , he ordered his men to send out the message to Al-Qaeda to stop fighting and start making contributions to the Democrats. "Nothing could be worse for Amerika than that. Allah will be very pleased" he said. In his last official act , Osama gave his top luitennants the keys to the beach house in Yemen and declared the Jihad to be officially over. As he was being buried in Pakistan , reports said that there was a "Go Hillary" bumper sticker on the casket.

How many times are you going to post this? Its a bit tired, although I do like the idea of the bumper sticker on the coffin.
2 :
Yeah right, there is no way in God's green Earth would you get information from your son who works Intel, about this via internet or telephone.
3 :
oh that is funny... see we do need a Democrat in office
4 :
It's all a clever ruse - I'm sure Osama knows that by endorsing Hillary Clinton, the Democratic party will lose credibility and the Republican Party will win for sure.
5 :
lol, thanks for the laugh.
6 :
that was funny. thanks for the laugh. the bumper sticker was a nice touch.
7 :
Funny stuff. Of course Al-Qaeda would support a party that would undermine our military and the War on Terror. Democrats are more concerned with ending the war while McCain is the only one trying to win it. Good laugh.
8 :
Amusing... though a Democrat President would be an even GREATER offense to Islam !! More likely there was an error in traslation... Al Qaeda will actually take a 2 year sabbatical: to allow the Dems to further screw the USA, to allow more agents to infiltrate from Mexico, and to permit Anti-USA feelings to simmer.

Looking for someone...
Looking for someone...?
His name was Carl Frederick Hyg. He was born December 19, 1855 and died in 1947. I know his children's surnames are High. He married Anna Matilda Anderson. Their children are Alma Sophia Theodora High, Mabel Eleanora Maria High, Carl Arthur Julius High, Axel Albin Cornelius High, Esther Matilda Leontina High, Oscar Abel Theodore High, Leon Edwin Emanuel High, John Oliver Victor High, Robert Frederick Walfred High, Anna Martha Viola High, Elva Alice Evangeline High, Edna Florence Olive High, Wilma Eunice Dorothea High, Earl Lawrence Knute High, and Lenore Elaine Elizabeth High (yes, there were 15 kids). I am looking for his parents (and farther back). All I know besides what I put above is that: "Moving out" records found in Swedish archives indicate that Karl Fredrick Hyg left Sweden for Amerika on September 2, 1877. He went to Lacon, Illinois, where his older sister Mathilda and brother John had been working for a year. I am assuming everything is correct, though it might not be.

Was Blagojevich framed by the Bankers
Was Blagojevich framed by the Bankers?
Maybe the following will shed some light on this frame up of Blagojevich. Just don't piss off the Bankers or try to stand up for working people in neoliberal dystopian Amerika. From WIkipedia: "Blagojevich threatened to stop the state’s dealings with Bank of America Corp. over a shut-down factory in Chicago. On December 8, 2008 (the day before his arrest), all state agencies were ordered to stop conducting business with Bank of America to pressure the company to make the loans. Blagojevich said the biggest U.S. retail bank would not get any more state business unless it restored credit to Republic Windows and Doors, whose workers were staging a sit-in. John Douglas, a former general counsel for the FDIC and attorney for Bank of America, called Blagojevich's gambit dangerous."

How do I get out of capitalism? I'm serious.
How do I get out of capitalism? I'm serious.?
I lived for six years in an income-sharing egalitarian commune and that wasn't bad, I didn't handle money for months at a time, and I didn't have to put up with any kind of boss lording over me all day. I had a lot of control over my own life and personal freedom on a day to day basis, much more than I do know working in corporate amerika. Only problem is it was basically only one of two large-scale secular communes in the country thats not some sort of crazy cult or has some hierarchical power structure with a charsmatic leader, etc and I decided I wanted to live in more than one place in my adult life. Since I don't see the proletariat taking over and establishing a classless society anytime soon, what is one to do? I don't feel much better off than a chattel slave right now. I hate hierarchy. Please don't tell me to move to Cuba ( I don't want Castro lording over me, either) or try to shove your bourgeois ideology down my throat either.

There are no alternatives. You could live in the wilderness by yourself, but that would kind of suck. And you'd probably die, if you lack serious survival skills. You could always start your own community. But that would take a lot of work, and some initial capital to get going. Capitalism isn't so bad if you have an education and a useful skill to offer. But that's the catch.
2 :
well there arent many options. you can go back to the place you used to live, now that you've lived somewhere else. so its more than one place i your adult life
3 :
no one can have it all. when we work for a company we are there for our protection, really, for wages, insurance 401K, holiday pay etc. we dont work just for the money, it really has to become a lifestyle. unless you have tons of money.

denmark would be your best bet -- since that country was voted the happiest in the world some of that happiest should rub off and you might enjoy it there!!! good luck on you happy trip!!!

Osama bin Laden is now dead, can we finally bring our kids home
Osama bin Laden is now dead, can we finally bring our kids home?
My son works for Army intelligence in Kuwait and he says they intercepted a secret message from Al-Qaeda to all the terrorists to stop fighting because the Jihad is now over. It said that when Osama bin Laden saw that Hillary Clinton or Obama could be our next President, he died laughing. As he was rolling on the floor , he ordered his men to send out the message to Al-Qaeda to stop fighting and start making contributions to the Democrats. "Nothing could be worse for Amerika than that. Allah will be very pleased" he said. In his last official act , Osama gave his top luitennants the keys to the beach house in Yemen and declared the Jihad to be officially over. As he was being buried in Pakistan , reports said that there was a "Go Hillary" bumper sticker on the casket.

What Human & Civil Rights apply to Mexican Citizens working without legal documentation in the United States
What Human & Civil Rights apply to Mexican Citizens working without legal documentation in the United States?
to Undocumented Latino Immigrants who were smuggled by Criminal and Organized Anglo gangs of Human smugglers working in the USA. "No person shall be denied due process of law", not "no citizen shall be denied due process of law". ;) I am Mexican citizen. ;) and I can tell you more about organized crime, corruption and human smugglers who are US citizens and speak Only English. But Y.A. would ban me if I do it. Free speech is not tolerated in Amerika. US obsolete and odd Laws, can be... should be,... must be Reformed, Amended, Derogated or Created to grant us Full Civil Rights and Justice before we get angry. Do u understand what I mean?

Why tell us? Tell the authorities and get it stopped. If your own country wasn't so corrupt, you wouldn't be here anyway. Am I right or am I wrong?

Human rights apply to all humans, but civil rights have been fought for and won by people who saw a wrong and tried to right it. I'm sorry you feel the way you do, but why didn't you follow the legal path? There is no doubt that immigration laws could stand a closer scrutiny, but would you have come if we tolerated executions and imprisonment of illegal immigrants? Would the application of the law to some and not to others satisfy you more? If your situation is better here, stay and work to make it better for all, if it's worse than what you left, go back. yo no quiero either way.

Interesting that you should ask this question, as it was just the other day which I was investigating this very issue. Frankly, I was shocked to find out the answers which I did. First, as has already been pointed out, The Civil Rights, guaranteed by the Constitution of the United States, are to U.S. Citizens only. However, there are also Human Rights (perhaps redundant to Civil Rights) which are enumerated within the Articles of Various World and U.N. Treaties. Said Human Rights are extended to only those countries which have signed on to the Treaty enumerating the Rights. So when you come to the U.S. illegally you may have some Human Rights but you certainly are due none of those Civil Rights enjoyed by U.S. Citizens. Another factor additional to being a signatory of a Treaty, is the behavior of your government towards citizens of the other signatory States in the past. (i.e. you will get what your country dishes out.)

Another factor additional to being a signatory of a Treaty, is the behavior of your government towards citizens of the other signatory States in the past. (i.e. you will get what your country dishes out.)

How come the Asian people of America won't bring back their activist group called the I WOR KUEN
How come the Asian people of America won't bring back their activist group called the I WOR KUEN?
Asian people in Amerika have been continually oppressed by the greedy, traitorous gangsters of our own communities and by the wider racist exploitative Amerikan society. We have been bombarded by the media (newpapers, T.V., radio, and schools) with false ideas about how we should accept our position in this society. They have tried to brainwash us and have even coerced us into going overseas and fighting against our own people in S.E. Asia. But, Asian Amerikans have been fighting back against the oppression of this country ever since we first tasted the bitterness of Amerika’s racism and exploitation. The long and heroic history of the Asian Amerikan struggle inspired and strengthened us in our purpose. No longer can we endure these oppressive conditions. We cannot let our ancestors’ struggles go down in vain. We know who are our real enemies and friends and we have new strength for we are joining our sisters and brothers within this country and around the world to fight for freedom and justice against the rulers of this country. We have tried the peaceful means of petition, courts, voting and even demonstrations. But our situation remained the same. We are not free. We want to improve the living conditions of our people and are preparing to defend our communities against oppression and for revolutionary armed war against the gangsters, businessmen, politicians, and police. When a government oppresses the people and no longer serves the needs of the people, we have the right to abolish it and create a new one.

Why wont you leave America and go back to Africa, black Africa. And built it so that it benefits black people, and so that you are happy with the way blacks run their society and continent. IS that to hard? do you need a superior white man to help you out with the building, invention, creating?

with only two years experience, i'd say it won't be easy looking for some one to hire you, especially if you aren't a citizen or they have to sponsor you. the power industry is good though. you'll find a lot of opportunity in the south.
2 :
Well the first thing you need to do is get yourself a resume together. Make sure you run spell check on it since employers will not think kindly if they see the amount of spelling errors we see Next, I would post your resume on job sites such as monster.com I would also send out letters to major companies introducing yourself. There is incentives available to employers that use foreign labor. However, forgive some of us Americans who feel that the unemployment rate is caused by foreign workers. In truth, the problem is with our government who allows businesses to get away with paying people from foreign lands so little instead of paying workers (no matter if they are American or not) a non-livable wage. Good luck to you.
3 :
Last I heard from some engineers here in the USA is there is a shortage because American universities are not graduating as many engineers as in the past, so several companies are hiring. So, I would think your chances would be good. Someone in your own field might be able to point you in the right direction with names of American companies. You can find more information online and also interview online. Good luck.
4 :
You could search for jobs based on your qualifications on some of the major job websites like Hotjobs,Monster, Careerbuilder and post your resume on these job boards. You could also search for jobs on websites like Craigslist,Simplyhired and Indeed. More information available at http://www.pcworkathome.net/jobwebsites.html

Is this the True Obituary of the U.S.
Is this the True Obituary of the U.S.?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The United States of America: She was born on July 4, 1776 and died in her sleep on November 4, 2008 after an extended illness. In the early years of her life, she promoted freedom, hard work, and the pursuit of happiness and less government intervention and intrusion in the lives of her inhabitants. She fought and won the American Revolution, World War I, World War II, and many other conflicts. She contracted the terminal illness of Socialism under the administration of Franklin D. Roosevelt and suffered many setbacks through the years under the care of Lyndon B. Johnson, Jimmy Carter, and William Jefferson Clinton and other socialist Democrat caretakers. Though she fought many battles with courage and fearlessness, she could not overcome the battle at home among a minority of her inhabitants who failed to possess an understanding of her life and greatness. Her disease progressed as her media was taken over by the left-wing and her Congress was taken over by Democrat socialists. Her economy failed when it merged with the world economy and America was sold out by her socialist caretakers through high taxes and an unfriendly business environment. Her health further deteriorated with an influx of illegal immigrants when her caretakers failed to secure her borders. Her last defense, the United States military, was degraded and dismantled by those who had no understanding that the best defense is a strong offense. Further deterioration of her health came when a great number of her inhabitants succumbed to the great hoax of "Global Warming." She is survived by only a few Patriots and Constitutionalists. Services for the United States of America will be held in an inauguration celebration on January 20, 2009 as Barack Hussein Obama assumes dictatorship. Active pallbearers will be the Universal Health Carists, Social Welfare Recipients, La Raza, National Education Association, America's Labor Unions, The Muslim Brotherhood, NOW, NAACP, The Brady Bunch, Southern Poverty Law Center, ACLU, The Democrat Party, The United Nations, among others.

i find this diatribe to be highly offensive. America has chosen the next president in the same manner it chose all the others, through voting. it is the right of every citizen able to vote to choose who they will, and if more people wanted Obama then either accept it or move out of the country. i am patriotic enough that i would not vote for someone i believed was going to "merge with islam" and my vote was for Obama. I believe he will change our country, yes, but the changes will be for the better and not be objectionable ones.

I know that the passing of prop 8 in California, Porp 2 in Florida and Prop 102 in Arizona were a huge blow to civil liberty and the US Constitution, but America isn't dead yet. Fortunately we only have a few more months of the Bush era left. I'm confused as to why this is the R&S section though. Wouldn't it be better in politics?

Another Christian with a persecution complex, your obit. doesn't say anything about Christian fundamentalists trying to subvert the Constitution by legislating their brand of morality onto everyone else- and putting a theocratic toehold in government by taking over the Republican party.

Why do you think Republicans are characterized as bigots and racists? And stop catastrophizing- Obama's administration probably won't be any worse/better than any other presidency- Our Constitutional Republic has prevailed again and the people have spoken, deal with it and quit whining about the past and put your eyes forward to the future-crying about it solves nothing and helps no one.

Yes. May she rest in peace. I say this not because of racism, but because America has forgotten who she is and what she has always stood for. So... she dies.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The United States of America: She was born on July 4, 1776 and died in her sleep on November 4, 2008 after an extended illness. In the early years of her life, she promoted freedom, hard work, and the pursuit of happiness and less government intervention and intrusion in the lives of her inhabitants. She fought and won the American Revolution, World War I, World War II, and many other conflicts. She contracted the terminal illness of Socialism under the administration of Franklin D. Roosevelt and suffered many setbacks through the years under the care of Lyndon B. Johnson, Jimmy Carter, and William Jefferson Clinton and other socialist Democrat caretakers. Though she fought many battles with courage and fearlessness, she could not overcome the battle at home among a minority of her inhabitants who failed to possess an understanding of her life and greatness. Her disease progressed as her media was taken over by the left-wing and her Congress was taken over by Democrat socialists. Her economy failed when it merged with the world economy and America was sold out by her socialist caretakers through high taxes and an unfriendly business environment. Her health further deteriorated with an influx of illegal immigrants when her caretakers failed to secure her borders. Her last defense, the United States military, was degraded and dismantled by those who had no understanding that the best defense is a strong offense. Further deterioration of her health came when a great number of her inhabitants succumbed to the great hoax of "Global Warming." She is survived by only a few Patriots and Constitutionalists. Services for the United States of America will be held in an inauguration celebration on January 20, 2009 as Barack Hussein Obama assumes dictatorship. Active pallbearers will be the Universal Health Carists, Social Welfare Recipients, La Raza, National Education Association, America's Labor Unions, The Muslim Brotherhood, NOW, NAACP, The Brady Bunch, Southern Poverty Law Center, ACLU, The Democrat Party, The United Nations, among others. Special recognition will be given to the dishonorable Osama Bin Laden, al-Qaeda, and the entire Islamic Fundamentalist Movement. Benediction will be led by Jeremiah Wright, Al Sharpton, and Jesse Jackson. Reception will follow the service wherein plans for the North American Union will resume in preparation for merger with the Islamic World Union.

rap "music" is evil and spreads propaganda and deserves to be banned
rap "music" is evil and spreads propaganda and deserves to be banned?
rap "music," in addition to making ears bleed, also spreads anti-US propaganda. this is probably the reason why it should be banned. Examples: 2Pac, "Words of Wisdom" (weird, a rap song is basically the opposite): AMERIKA, AMERIKA, AMERIKKKA I charge you with the crime of rape, murder, and assault For suppressing and punishing my people I charge you with robbery for robbing me of my history I charge you with false imprisonment for keeping me Trapped in the projects WTF? That's messed up. The reason you dumbf**ks are trapped in the projects is that you lazy motherf**kers won't work. You won't get out of the ghetto by just sitting there, you know. N.W.A., "F**k tha Police" (Need I say more?) Biggest rappers who have spreaded anti-US propaganda: Nas Jay-Z N.W.A. (all 5 members) (it stands for N**gaz with Attitudes, wtf?) 2Pac Kanye West I think this is finally our chance to ban rap. Those heinous songs are not freedom of speech, it's just PLAIN SLANDER. Rap should be banned 'cause of this, AND for the fact that it is a useless pile of crap. Remember, rock>pop>whale s**t>rap. You with me? Freedom of speech? WTF? Spreading false rumors about the US is NOT freedom of speech. P.S. just joking about ears bleeding. But I'm pretty sure someone's ears got injured by rap, because stupid wannabe gangster teenagers bang that crap out of their cars.

yes! o-wait a minute, i forgot about that lil' ol' freedom of speech thing. i dont listen to rap but if that is how they feel, then whatever! i choose not to hear it, thats all! but you were crackin me up! Kanye is the worst! imo
2 :
I have a unique idea-If you don't like it, don't listen to it. There is a neat little gadget on your radio called the on/off switch, use it. I personally hate rap/hip-hop music, too, but it cannot be banned. If everyone ignores it, it will go away.
3 :
if you don't like it don't listen to it they're only expressing themselves through music
4 :
I'm not a fan of rap music but a line of the 2Pac song has got a point as he's rapping about the America slave trade (I charge you with robbery for robbing me of my history).
5 :
I can also give you tons of rock songs that spread the same message. If you don't have anything to criticize, you shouldn't be making music.
6 :
I'm disgusted that I live in the same country as you. edit: nooo but seriously 10/10. i'm PISSSSSED
7 :
I don't really like rap; however, I'm an anarchist, so I have no problem hating on the government. XD
8 :
I defy you to cite one example wherein someones ears actually bled from listening to rap.
9 :
I kinda know what you mean, I HATE gangster rap, but honestly, there actually IS good rap out there under all the junk, just as there is good other genre music under the crap. Stop judging a genre just by some bad artist/songs. Also, they're free to express themselves, so you can't do anything about it. Some of the stuff they do rap about disgusts me beyond belief but I still manage to keep from generalizing the whole.
10 :
I am and I'm not. I agree with your dislike of the genre, you seem to have delved deeper than I would care to and you seem to have substance in your argument. Then again, you talk of banning this tripe. I remember the calls to burn Heavy Metal records years ago. Rock music is poisoning the youth and all the rest of it. Music evolves and mutates, but each genre defines it's generation. We were the rebellious rockers, these days, we have what your question addresses. Yes, indeed it does make my Rocking ears bleed, it is also a call to the youth against conformity and authority. Sounds a bit like the British punk movement of the 1970's. Unpopular government of the day, massive unemployment and widespread poverty lead to popularity of The Sex Pistols which evolved into The Clash, The Damned etc. Each new genre brings it's own idiocy. The punks were sniffing glue, the Metal heads ruined their 33's by playing albums backwards for hidden messages and today, well these role models are facing gun crime allegations and what do you know? London and Manchester are rife with shootings. I think they call it, a sign of the times.

first of all, taste is subjective there are some really talented rappers who have very intelligent things to say and not so talented rappers. There are horrible rock bands who sing about nothing but mindless cr@p and others who do not. there are good/bad/intelligent/unintelligent artists in all music genres. Second of all, If you love america so much then why are you wanting to violate the constitution here is a direct quote from the constitution: "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances." pay attention to the line: "congress shall make no law .... prohibiting the free excercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech." Those rap "musicians" are more patriotic than you because they are exercising their constitutional right to free speech. whereas you are making yourself like a totalitarianist (if you dint know that that word means, go buy a dictionary, I'm sure you could use one) by wanting to stifle peoples freedom. It is people who have the same mindset as yourself who limit the freedoms of american citizens Thirdly: if you do not like something that someone is doing that does not directly affect you. Ignore it! how does their viewpoint effect you at all? why should you care?
12 :
First answerer is right: Freedom of speech. Rap is repetitive and dull, therefore I choose not to listen to 99% of it. There's your freedom of choice, change the station. F*** the Police is pretty accurate though on a social level. I don't know how the police are where you're from, but that describes the police well here. edit: Please give an example of those false rumors.
13 :
get over yourself. if u don`t like rap music don`t listen to it. who are you to judge other people and decide what music is or is not appropriate. we all have a right to express ourselves. just like the rappers have a right to express themselves through music you have a right to say how you feel. (even if your opinion is ignorant, racist, and kinda stupid) if you listen closely to other genres of music you will see that plenty of them have lyrical continent similar to that of rap music. so uhh good luck getting rap music banned and good luck with your control issues.
14 :
if you say so.#
15 :
If you don't understand rap music, don't attack it. obviously you have never heard of poverty and police brutality. When someone lives in the projects, you cant just get up and leave or get a job. the reason why is because not everyone has money. as for jobs, believe it or not, there aren't many jobs in the projects. when people are mistreated and faced with poverty do expect them to just not care? no, they are gonna try to get through it. the reason you don't understand the 2pac lyrics is obviously because you have obviously never heard of slavery or poverty, so therefore you don't believe it. As fo F*** the police, do you honestly think that if you live in the ghetto and police beat you because of the color of your skin, that some people won't retaliate? i'm not mad, it's just that i don't like people attacking rap when they don't understand it.
16 :
Only close minded people say things like this about rap.
17 :
Before you make uneducated attacks you should actually try to listen to the music and UNDERSTAND the lyrics. The Tupac line he's definitely talking about slavery. I wanna know what anti-US propaganda has been spread by any of the 5 artists you mentioned. And saying f*ck the police isn't propaganda, its people being tired of being treated like shit all the time. Do you think cops really care about all the people killed in Compton? Do you really think they investigate and send out detectives to find what happened? or do they just chock it up to gang violence? And about the people in projects, a lot of what you've stated is propaganda. That's the stereotype of a rundown project, but it's not always like that. People work hard everyday and are still trapped in a project because they still don't make enough to move out. You can't seriously believe that everyone in the projects are lazy mother fu**ers that don't wanna work? That's just plain ignorance and stupidity. And i'm not saying that all rap is good either, because a lot of it(mostly radio stuff) is just dance music with some dumb lyrics thrown on top. I don't see how you could especially say that Kanye is an anti-American. I wanna hear one song of his where he spits some anti-US propaganda. I haven't heard any propaganda in any of his songs, and I've listened to every song he's ever even been featured on(my favorite artist). You shouldn't forget that there's a lot of rock that sucks just as much. I grew up listening to rock(even though i'm black) but just recently(about 3 years) ive been listening to hip-hop too. There's an opposite side of the spectrum for rap AND rock. Stop being so blind and just condemning and entire genre because you don't understand it(like the Tupac line) or it just sucks.
rap "music," in addition to making ears bleed, also spreads anti-US propaganda. this is probably the reason why it should be banned. Examples: 2Pac, "Words of Wisdom" (weird, a rap song is basically the opposite): AMERIKA, AMERIKA, AMERIKKKA I charge you with the crime of rape, murder, and assault For suppressing and punishing my people I charge you with robbery for robbing me of my history I charge you with false imprisonment for keeping me Trapped in the projects WTF? That's messed up. The reason you dumbf**ks are trapped in the projects is that you lazy motherf**kers won't work. You won't get out of the ghetto by just sitting there, you know. N.W.A., "F**k tha Police" (Need I say more?) Biggest rappers who have spreaded anti-US propaganda: Nas Jay-Z N.W.A. (all 5 members) (it stands for N**gaz with Attitudes, wtf?) 2Pac Kanye West I think this is finally our chance to ban rap. Those heinous songs are not freedom of speech, it's just PLAIN SLANDER. Rap should be banned 'cause of this, AND for the fact that it is a useless pile of crap. Remember, rock>pop>whale s**t>rap. You with me? Freedom of speech? WTF? Spreading false rumors about the US is NOT freedom of speech. P.S. just joking about ears bleeding. But I'm pretty sure someone's ears got injured by rap, because stupid wannabe gangster teenagers bang that crap out of their cars.

yes! o-wait a minute, i forgot about that lil' ol' freedom of speech thing. i dont listen to rap but if that is how they feel, then whatever! i choose not to hear it, thats all! but you were crackin me up! Kanye is the worst! imo
2 :
I have a unique idea-If you don't like it, don't listen to it. There is a neat little gadget on your radio called the on/off switch, use it. I personally hate rap/hip-hop music, too, but it cannot be banned. If everyone ignores it, it will go away.
3 :
if you don't like it don't listen to it they're only expressing themselves through music
4 :
I'm not a fan of rap music but a line of the 2Pac song has got a point as he's rapping about the America slave trade (I charge you with robbery for robbing me of my history).
5 :
I can also give you tons of rock songs that spread the same message. If you don't have anything to criticize, you shouldn't be making music.
6 :
I'm disgusted that I live in the same country as you. edit: nooo but seriously 10/10. i'm PISSSSSED
7 :
I don't really like rap; however, I'm an anarchist, so I have no problem hating on the government. XD
8 :
I defy you to cite one example wherein someones ears actually bled from listening to rap.
9 :
I kinda know what you mean, I HATE gangster rap, but honestly, there actually IS good rap out there under all the junk, just as there is good other genre music under the crap. Stop judging a genre just by some bad artist/songs. Also, they're free to express themselves, so you can't do anything about it. Some of the stuff they do rap about disgusts me beyond belief but I still manage to keep from generalizing the whole.
10 :
I am and I'm not. I agree with your dislike of the genre, you seem to have delved deeper than I would care to and you seem to have substance in your argument. Then again, you talk of banning this tripe. I remember the calls to burn Heavy Metal records years ago. Rock music is poisoning the youth and all the rest of it. Music evolves and mutates, but each genre defines it's generation. We were the rebellious rockers, these days, we have what your question addresses. Yes, indeed it does make my Rocking ears bleed, it is also a call to the youth against conformity and authority. Sounds a bit like the British punk movement of the 1970's. Unpopular government of the day, massive unemployment and widespread poverty lead to popularity of The Sex Pistols which evolved into The Clash, The Damned etc. Each new genre brings it's own idiocy. The punks were sniffing glue, the Metal heads ruined their 33's by playing albums backwards for hidden messages and today, well these role models are facing gun crime allegations and what do you know?

(http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent/dws/dn/latestnews/stories/102210dnmetbroden.1b2338185.html) Liberal news outlets and blogs (MSNBS, Kos, etc.) were appalled!

Do others find that the American Dream is a lie
Do others find that the American Dream is a lie?
I know that the American Dream means different things to different people. But in most part - it means financial success and opportunity in America-this is the definition I will use here. So can someone who did everything right- got a dual degree in college, had a great military career, and two master degrees (MPA/Management and Computer Studies/Liberal Arts). I make a cool $40k a year with a family of four. America is not the land of opportunity. There are jobs-plenty of jobs at Mickey Ds or changing oil at Quick Lube. I was out of work for 7 months! I lost my house to foreclosure, I have thousand of debt due to not having any money. And if I see one more financial expert on TV telling us to cut expenses - I guess I can cut out food, gas, and shelter. Or they make out everyone in financial trouble as being financially unworthy-we should just juggle our portfolios around-maybe sell our vacation home. Or if there is one more luxury car commercial telling me I can lease a new Mercedes Benz I think I will go postal. I was told coming from a working class family that education was the key along with hard work. I have done both. Now I have loan debt I can not pay and a family living on food stamps-which ran out because they gave me only$297 a month! How can a family eat on $297 a month? This election is for us to vote for one elite group over the other. One promises lower taxes and the other big brother to help us. But without good paying jobs there is nothing!!! Pat Buchanan in his book "Day of Reckoning" states some facts that I would have never believed years ago. Free Trade as the globalists and corporate American wants is nothing but the rich getting richer-shipping good jobs over seas-ruining our country's power to produce products- and killing the American Dream.

I am sorry your life sucks maybe you ought to go somewhere where you mean nothing and are able to eat maybe toast for your only meal that day. The good thing is that if you don't like life here then change it. Clearly you would be making more money at Walmart so go do that. Or waiters make bank too.

To an extent yes, but I mean there are worse places out there. America is selling themselves out by encouraging businesses to go overseas by giving them tax cuts. I wouldn't mind taxes if the money was used in an efficient manner. The financial experts only tell you to cut it, if you don't need that expense, i.e cable bill, restaurant bill, use coupons and etc.

Preach!! Preach!!! The American dream is a big fat lie!! I love your post!!! I keep telling people the damn government doesnt give a rats a** about people who have lost their homes due to forclosure, who are out of jobs because of layoffs, who are struggling just to put food on the table. Thats f__ing said that your family ran out of food stamps and with grocery prices so high no a family of four cannot eat on $297 a month. You know who cares??? People that want to help, but are in no position to. The people that can help and do something about it they dont give a damn(oh wait thats the government). They dont have to worry about a damn thing because the are living really good. Having a college degree does not guarantee a great job or more money. There are lots of people with college degrees working in fast food joints or some low paying crappy job because they cant find jobs. You have two masters degrees and you only make $40,000???????? That sounds crazy. A family of four cant survive on that salary. I hope you dont have to pawn your clothes for money. Yes if the world did end your pain and suffering would be over. I dont think its going to end anytime soon though. The American dream died a loooong time ago ( from the 18th to 20th century, the beginning of America). I believe at one point in time America was the land of opportunity in these days and times it is not. The only people that have it good are the wealthy people. I read the poor and rich gap is growing fast in America. I wish I could help you in some way. No God is not going to magically pay your rent, but you can pray for him to find a way to help you pay your rent. Yeah you could be a waiter for a while. I know older people who are in their 30's and 40's waiting on tables and they have families too. Some job is better than no job. Get your wife to work as well.

First, let me say I'm sorry you've run on hard times. You and I are in similar position - I've got my degrees, didn't do the military (you have my respect for that, sir) and worked my way up, up and up, until the firm I was at didn't do what they should've been doing (getting more work) and laid off about 70 people. I've come to find that the corporate officers gave themselves a nice little bonus for keeping the company solvent. A bonus that would equal my salary for about four years (for each person). This is obscene in these times that these people would accept this, but greed will win out in the end I guess. I'm for capitalism and getting what you're worth, but to do so at the painful expense of others is criminal in my opinion. I have to say, I've been fortunate that I still have my home, but things are tight. But to answer your question, the American Dream is still there, but for some it has turned into a nightmare. I know this will ring hollow, but keep your chin up, and know that many of us are in this with you. Good luck to you.

Yes. It's a lie that only successful people are worthy of the fruits of success particulary when the definition of success is so narrow. Look at how we treat the people that work the hardest. It kills me how much entertainers make. I'm talking about the ones that aren't talented or that don't seem to put in much effort. Clinton did a lot of damage and he is a blue dog democrat. He is appeasing to Republicans. I don't think Obama will be able to do what is truly needed. It will be a step in the right direction. You should start a business but with what money? Isn't that key? I would love to start my own business. I need money and time of which I am really short. In college, I worked for a family friend that got laid off and was fortunate enough to be able to start a drycleaning business. He said that he did so because he couldn't find work. He was in business management. He and his wife served in the Military. Great people. edit: Network. You may have to move. Contact employment agencies in your area. Volunteer because it could lead to more opportunities.

Maybe some of you just need to live outside the states for a while. I lived in Chile for a few years then came back. There, the government make it nearly impossible to get ahead. I came back to the states, and I got my degree in construction management (nothing fancy-but it is specialized). I work my butt off and my first year out of school I am pulling in about 85K. I am not saying this to brag, but I am saying that opportunity still exists if you find yourself a niche and distinguish yourself from the crowd. Anyone can make a good living if they are creative, innovative, or just willing to go balls out and work. Don't give up on America. If you don't think that we are living in the land of opportunity, go live somewhere else for a few years, then you will appreciate what you have.

I'm sorry to hear about your unfortunate situation. However, I don't think the American Dream is a lie. I think it is misunderstood. The American Dream is not a law, formula, or a guarantee. It does mean do X and you will receive Y. The American Dream means that the opportunity to advance oneself exists and has few if any governmental barriers. It means that this country is as close to a meritocracy as possible (i.e. those that generate the value, receive the rewards). Education (like any other qualification) only gets your foot in the door. It opens up opportunity, but does not guarantee success. Hard work is a great thing and strong work ethic is valuable to most companies, but it is secondary. The cold realities of business mean that companies, at least amongst the rank & file, do not reward effort - they reward results. If you can't find a job that pays what you need to comfortably support you lifestyle (yes, children are a lifestyle decision), then you have a couple options: 1) take whatever work you can and keep looking for (better yet, try generating) opportunity, or 2) strike out on your own if you can (that's the crux of American Dream right there... the freedom to take the hardest road and do it on your own). Government is neither the problem nor the answer. No matter what changes people try to sell, there will always be a "system" in place. How you adapt and work within (or rebel against) will determine your own station in life.
I know that the American Dream means different things to different people. But in most part - it means financial success and opportunity in America-this is the definition I will use here. So can someone who did everything right- got a dual degree in college, had a great military career, and two master degrees (MPA/Management and Computer Studies/Liberal Arts). I make a cool $40k a year with a family of four. America is not the land of opportunity. There are jobs-plenty of jobs at Mickey Ds or changing oil at Quick Lube. I was out of work for 7 months! I lost my house to foreclosure, I have thousand of debt due to not having any money. And if I see one more financial expert on TV telling us to cut expenses - I guess I can cut out food, gas, and shelter. Or they make out everyone in financial trouble as being financially unworthy-we should just juggle our portfolios around-maybe sell our vacation home. Or if there is one more luxury car commercial telling me I can lease a new Mercedes Benz I think I will go postal. I was told coming from a working class family that education was the key along with hard work. I have done both. Now I have loan debt I can not pay and a family living on food stamps-which ran out because they gave me only$297 a month! How can a family eat on $297 a month? This election is for us to vote for one elite group over the other. One promises lower taxes and the other big brother to help us. But without good paying jobs there is nothing!!! Pat Buchanan in his book "Day of Reckoning" states some facts that I would have never believed years ago. Free Trade as the globalists and corporate American wants is nothing but the rich getting richer-shipping good jobs over seas-ruining our country's power to produce products- and killing the American Dream. You got to read that book even if your liberal-he makes the case against this neo-conservative bs and very liberal policies. I have a great track record -experience-leadership-education-ability to get things done. What does corporate Amerika want? Some out of college Ken or Barbie or can only nod "yes" to their corporate masters. Still what happened to the American Dreams? Can some one tell me? Please do not tell me to trust in God that all will be well unless God is going to pay my rent. I need cash. At this point I would put a cap in a brother to make a dollar.

My uncle is furious with me, what to do
My uncle is furious with me, what to do?
I got a real family struggle here. For a few months already my uncle and aunt are gossiping about me. I'm having a gap year because I cannot start studying yet because of a stupid lottery system. So to make the best out of this schoolyear I found a family where I can start working as an au pair this week (although its already known for 3 months). At first when I told them they were very enthusiastic, as usual, but later on they thought it was the worst Idea I ever came up with. They even called my mom, yelling at her that she was not a good parent to let me go (Im 20 btw), yelling how much it would cost my family and that I probably would have to work 24/7 and yelling that the man of family should not be trusted. By this time both me and my mom had met the family, who all seem to be great. I get paid well, do not have to do cleaning, laundry ect (only help making small meals for the children). The 2 children (age 3 and 5) both go to daycare and the mom only works 15h a week. Anyway, because we had met them we were of course not impressed by my uncle. So to prevent more gossiping I kept my trip to the USA (I live in Holland) ,which I planned 10 days before my acctual flight, silent and did not tell anyone besides my own parents and siblings. Anyway, when I was in the USA my grandma died very suddenly. I was with my friends in california when I heard the news and they have been a real support! I was so glad to have them around me since I was devastated by the news. I always knew it would be very hard for me. Still, I did not go to the funeral, because I know my grandma would not have wanted me to come back. Besides I did not wanted to be an emotional wreck on my grandmothers funeral because I know my mom would put her feelings aside to comfort me, and I did not want that. I always react very emotional and especially after losing my grandma, I cried so much, I can't even imagine how I would be when feeling such grief while being so tired from the jetlag. So, Instead I chose to stay with my friends who were very understanding. Anyway, my uncle really hates me now and thinks I'm the most selfish person on earth because I did not come back. I really want to explain everything to him, but he always seems to interpered things differently, so I don't know if I should write him a letter. My mom told him after all the gossiping that I would probably not see him for a while, and he replied that it was probably for the best because he doesn't want to see me anymore. He even told my mom at my grandmothers funeral how angry he was that me and my sister (who is still in amerika and also couldn't come) didn't come and how much he always did so much for us, and how little we have done for him (I could come up with lots of things that I have done for him). I just don't know what to do anymore. Would it be better if I just didn't contact him anymore, or should I try to explain even though he'll probably read it differently than it's meant (Such a situation happened before and made him even more angry). Please give me some advice because I really don't know what to do. thanks

6 :
You need to send him a note telling him you're sorry if you offended him or hurt his feelings and you that you love him and hope your relationship can improve. Don't try to defend yourself and don't make accusations against him. If he responds negatively, don't respond. Whether his response is good or bad, back off for a bit, do your best to limit interaction with him and give everyone time to cool off and deal with their grief. Your mother/parents should be making it very clear that he has no business gossiping about you or attempting to impose his will on you. You are not his child. Your mother should be doing more to protect you from his vitriol. Try to convey this to her, and ask her to support you more the next time she speaks to her brother.
7 :
I would suggest writing a letter, and explain your feelings and leave the door open for further contact. If all he does is complain about your choices, say very firmly and respectfully "Uncle, I am an adult now. I am very capable of making MY own decisions based on whats best for ME. This is MY life. NOT yours. I respect your advice, but you are not allowed to try to control my life.' Make the first step, write the letter/email send it. And as they say the ball will be in his court. If he wants to cut off contact w/ you. Thats his problem.
8 :
well not knowing you its a little tough to tell you what would be best. But, if I were in your position this is what I'd do. I would first try calling him and explaining why you decided to stay. Maybe he's missing a piece of the story and you can give him a different view point to help him understand. If he won't listen to you, then I'd write a letter. He can't interrupt you if you write a letter. You might want to think about having someone you trust to give you honest feedback read it first to tell you if there is anything you'd like to consider removing. If he still wants nothing to do with you, there's not much else you can do besides wait til he gets over it.
9 :
I think you should just send him a letter. Just put pen to paper and write down everything you feel and everything you want him to know. If he doesn't read it, then well....... Too bad for him. If he does, and he still doesn't get you, try getting one of your parents/siblings to talk to him, and maybe he'll open up to them. If he reads it, and understands you, then great! You'll still have a lot of talking to do, but at least you'll have one huge step wedged in place! Honestly, just give him time. And write that letter. There's nothing else you can do. You can't say all of this over the phone (too much heavy conversation) and you obviously can't email this to him for the same reason. The only other option is to send him a letter. And do not type the letter. Hand- write it. It shows that you care enough for him, even after all of this. It shows that you still have time for him. If he lives nearby you, then write the letter, then go to his house, and give it to him to read. Chances are, he'll read it in front of you and talk to you after. But be brave! You never know what could happen! I had to take the a similar leap with someone I really care about, and it worked out really well....... I'm blissfully happy now. I hope this helps!! Good luck! :D
10 :
I would be fair and tell him in a letter your side of the story. Like how they changed their minds, etc. Tell him how you feel. How he reacts is his choice, nut you gotta give him the oppurtunity. If he reacts badly, stop the contact. Time does heal wounds.
11 :
Your mom and dad need to tell him to shut up. He is having too much say in your life. You are not his child and you are doing ok on your own. I would have said you should have been at your grandmothers funeral out of respect. But you are a adult and you can make your own choices next time you are home tell him off. He is not in charge of you and don't contact him.

If he wants to cut off contact w/ you. Thats his problem.

well not knowing you its a little tough to tell you what would be best. But, if I were in your position this is what I'd do. I would first try calling him and explaining why you decided to stay. Maybe he's missing a piece of the story and you can give him a different view point to help him understand. If he won't listen to you, then I'd write a letter. He can't interrupt you if you write a letter. You might want to think about having someone you trust to give you honest feedback read it first to tell you if there is anything you'd like to consider removing. If he still wants nothing to do with you, there's not much else you can do besides wait til he gets over it.

I think you should just send him a letter. Just put pen to paper and write down everything you feel and everything you want him to know. If he doesn't read it, then well....... Too bad for him. If he does, and he still doesn't get you, try getting one of your parents/siblings to talk to him, and maybe he'll open up to them. If he reads it, and understands you, then great! You'll still have a lot of talking to do, but at least you'll have one huge step wedged in place! Honestly, just give him time. And write that letter. There's nothing else you can do. You can't say all of this over the phone (too much heavy conversation) and you obviously can't email this to him for the same reason. The only other option is to send him a letter. And do not type the letter. Hand- write it. It shows that you care enough for him, even after all of this. It shows that you still have time for him. If he lives nearby you, then write the letter, then go to his house, and give it to him to read. Chances are, he'll read it in front of you and talk to you after. But be brave! You never know what could happen! I had to take the a similar leap with someone I really care about, and it worked out really well....... I'm blissfully happy now. I hope this helps!! Good luck! :D

I would be fair and tell him in a letter your side of the story. Like how they changed their minds, etc. Tell him how you feel. How he reacts is his choice, nut you gotta give him the oppurtunity. If he reacts badly, stop the contact. Time does heal wounds.
11 :
Your mom and dad need to tell him to shut up. He is having too much say in your life. You are not his child and you are doing ok on your own. I would have said you should have been at your grandmothers funeral out of respect. But you are a adult and you can make your own choices next time you are home tell him off. He is not in charge of you and don't contact him.

Is this the NEW AMERICAN DREAM
Is this the NEW AMERICAN DREAM?
http://news.yahoo.com/s/time/20100213/us_time/08599196345400 How close are YOU to living in the family car? A broken leg? A nasty divorce? A lawsuit? A layoff at work? An auto accident w/the loss of your transportation? Wanna spin the WHEEL OF FATE in AMERIKA? I'm not bashing Obama , at least not right now. This homeless thing started in the 80's with Reaganomics!

People have been homeless since the dawn of time. With the right planning, these kinds of worries become so minuscule that it's not really worth worrying about. Want to not have to worry about it? Study and get good grades in high school. Keep your legs closed and don't get knocked up, or keep your pants on and don't knock up anyone. Go to college. Get a job, two if you need it. Don't buy things you can't afford...do not use credit cards. If you can't pay all your bills, and then pay cash for whatever it is, then you don't need it. The only exception is medical problems. You don't need cable tv, playstations, computers, internet, to drink, to do drugs, to eat out, to have your nails done, to buy top of the line clothes, cell phones, etc. Those are luxuries and should be treated as such. Save every dime you can.

It has been made worse by the Bush administration. Obama is trying to fix what he made nearly impossible to fix. I am living with my daughter due to an illness that I cannot control or afford medical insurance for. Otherwise I would be homeless, and not have a car to live in. This is one reason all the help to Haiti is upsetting. There are plenty of reasons to help the people of the United States. It's good to help those in need in Haiti, don't get me wrong, but it's very bothersome that people are still suffering in New Orleans, and now in California after all the terrible weather they have had there. We have too many homeless and uninsured here, why aren't some of these millions of dollars and celebrities doing something to help here at home also. At the moment the only American dream is to have shelter, food, and health. It does not exist in many places, along with the loss of jobs, it does not seem to be improving as well as we are lead to believe. Then to have to listen, or read about these bozos in finance who think their worth is more than ours and take millions and even billions of our dollars for themselves in bonuses, is just maddening. No one in their right mind could ever need or have use for that much money, they only make those in need suffer more with no care or concern of anyone but themselves. It's sad, but true.
