    Why Illinois Can't Afford its Poor Dead

    I was making fun of the idea of an expensive funeral, NOT the dead. An inexpensive cremation is a much better option. Military funerals were part of the contract with everyone who served. Anyone who wants a free funeral is more than welcome to join the military. Having combat experience was...

    Michigan cuts 30,000 college students from foodstamps

    "College students have so much debt as it is in the United States. It's hard for them to be able to pay all their bills,” Wayne State University student Erik Boyes told MyFoxDetroit." This does not say much for the brain power of at least this one student. Don't take on student loans...

    Michigan cuts 30,000 college students from foodstamps

    College is OPTIONAL! There are community colleges, trade schools, apprenticeships, food stamps should not be an option. When I was stationed at Homestead Air Force base we were not able to use the mess hall due to our work schedule and the distance to where we worked. At the time I was making...

    Why Illinois Can't Afford its Poor Dead

    I bet a lot of dead people are going to be REALLY angry when they don't get planted where they want too. The shame of getting planted in "Potters Field" will surely ruin eternity for them. :rolleyes: I bet it makes them SO angry that they just go and decompose just to spite everyone!! :D

    US Appeals Court Rejects Obama Health Care Law

    I have NO use for ANY government health care. The States have more authority than the Feds do to have a health care plan. The Feds have NO authority under the US Constitution. Now, too bad the SC can't just reject Obama!!!:p

    Stats from the wall

    Officially yes. There was still fighting in China, Burma, India and French Indo-China for several months after the surrender. My dad's unit was involved in several fire fights in what is known as VietNam today for almost 5 months after the surrender. They lost several men during that time. There...

    How Long Before This Happens Here.....

    People can also get very low cost or no cost care at the medical schools. Doctors have to learn on real people at some point. Much of the care at VA hospitals is provided by student doctors. My surgery last year was done by a student. If it good enough for me it is for everyone else. It is...

    Jon Stewart rips Newseek

    I posted because people put far too much importance on what entertainers say. They often use their celebrity to sway people who are weak minded enough to believe that entertainers are somehow important.

    Explain Please

    I did not see or hear about the incident you mention Greg. A gang is a gang and a thug is a thug. Uniform or not. The "government gangs are in many ways worse than the other kind. Our media condones this kind of violence. They know that the government will move to "control" the violence, the...

    How Long Before This Happens Here.....

    Health care is a personal responsibility. So is earning a living. No one is entitled to either. Our Constitution limits the scope of government. It was written to insure that the individual has control over their own lives without undue interference from government. When government controls...

    How Long Before This Happens Here.....

    Retail is not a job to be buying a house on. Young couples starting out SHOULD be using their retail job to help pay for an upgrade of their skill so they can get a job that pays enough to buy a house. They can get into apprenticeships, or tech schools and do as well or even better than many...
