  1. Not enough in my opinion, 100% of his attention should be directed towards the problems we face now. People not being able to work, not able to pay their house payments, etc. I will agree with anker that as long as the message he delivers to the children is not injected with anything political then I personnaly dont have a problem with it. It just bothers me all the different places that our attention and resources are being directed towards when we have some important problems that are facing americans, and destroying lives.
  2. He is workin on it. The failed cash for clunkers program which is now bankrupting some dealerships is one great example. There was a gentleman on the radio today saying that now that the govn wont drop the checks they will not release the title for his car, therefore not able to license his vehicle and drive it legally, and still has to pay for it. I will have to agree that it seems they are intentionally sabotaging the economy rather then fixing it. Instead of working on all these other programs and stuff, maybe we should focus on what we do have that is already broken.. i.e. social security, medicare, the post office, all of which are going bankrupt. I would rather see the existing problems fixed or at least an attempt to get them under control before we keep spending money we dont have to add more programs that are doomed to follow the same path that our existing government failures have.
  3. Just curious what everyone's thoughts are on the issue of Obama addressing schools on Sept. 8th. In the Email sent to the schools, it explains that the President will speak to children about Goals, personal responsibilty, etc. This is the first time in history that the President will be speaking directly to school children. It will be done live from the White House and be streaming on the website. There is no advance transcript of it at this time.

    veg verge.

    So your reason for goin veg surely cant be because of animal cruelty right? You know animal products are used in alot of other things then just steaks. Shampoo, Jello, Salt, Masking tape, shoes, among many other things. To use the whole " animals are treated bad " crap you really need to go all out vegan and cut all that animal poison from your life. Anyone read the Stanford study that came out last week about veggie kids doing worse in school and being malnourished?
  5. Im going to try to be simple so you may comprehend this. Once again you are resorting to personal attacks, which again indicates you have no substance, and lack education or intellect. Instinct has nothing to do with a stimulus response, thus proven by Pavlov, they are two very different concepts. You once again are having trouble comprehending this. I sited the defenition of Instinct from the Websters Dictionary. I will take that definition over any bull you try to say it means. And again you misquote me and make up things, never, at any point, do i say that all people abuse the system, and all people get stuck in the rut of gonvernment intervention. If I did please quote me, because Im quite sure in previous posts I was very clear that it was not even the majority. And for a person with such a impressive educational backround you should work on learning to spell GENERALIZATION correctly. When you attack someones intellect, you better not live in a glass house. Your rantings are uniformed and unitelligable. You resort to simple attacks on my intellect to try to make yourself look better instead of showing any facts to backup any of your statements. Im just curious as to how someone making well over $460.00 per hour, which according to my pea brained kentucky math is: 460 x 8 = $3680 per day 3680 x 5 = $18400 per week and 18400 x 52 = $956800 per year What are you doing on a graf forum sounding like someone who just found out what a thesaurus is. Your little insult tactics might work on someone who is 14 years old, but when it comes down to it, your arguments sound like typical rhetoric from someone trying to be somthing they are not. If you would think about what you type, before you do it, you might find that every time you try to quote what I said, you are wrong. Maybe you should try going back to the 4th grade in an American school where they can teach you simple understanding of the english language. All you do is speak in platitudes, and use large words to make morons think you know what your talking about, trust me, your a fuckin idiot. I really hate to have to resort to personal attacks on your stupid ass, but its like talking to a parrot who only has the same dribble to repeat over and over. Well have fun with your obviously far superior intelligence, and bumper sticker platitiudes.
  6. Instinct - Noun - an inborn pattern of activity or tendency to action common to a given biological species. That means you're born with the trait. In my statement I said that it was "like crack". If Im not mistaken you BECOME addicted to crack and are not born with the dependancy unless under special circumstances. So once again your big worded non-substance argument is debunked. Anything else?
  7. Not in one place did I say that it is a MAJORITY abusing the system, I stated LARGER number. Making the implication that it is a larger number then you assumed in your previous post. You should learn to comprehend English before you use your mighty big words to confuse us simple folk. I dont need a fucking english or grammer lesson, make a fucking point in your statement instead of acting like your better then someone.
  8. Well, since you are an obvious expert in the field of welfare and human psycology, I should just stop writing? I will site some common sense examples like I did in my original post ( instead of trying to be a pretentious asshole like some people ). Unemployment benefits in the state of kentucky are $460.00 per week in my particular field of work. How can you expect people to work when thats more then they make on an average week? I dont need to talk like a supercilius prick to get my point across. Your anger is obvious when you try to dominate someone with large words instead of making common sense arguments. Its an obvious tactic of someone who has no real substance to their point.
  9. LOL. Boy, a little defensive arent you? Did anything in my post say that I was referring to everyone? Actually it says the contrary. If you dont think that there is a LARGER number of people who are abusing the system out there, you are quite naive. They abuse welfare, workers comp, disability, and yes, unemployment. I would like you to point out in my post where I say that everyone on unemployment is abusing the system. Maybe you should try reading a tad more before you start firing off at the mouth. I dont know if you thought that I was referring to you, thats maybe why you got on the defense so fast, but I dont think anywhere in my post that I made any broad sweeping generalizations.
  10. I am also curious to know if it tracks how many of those people are: 1 - Too lazy to get a job. ( Trust me, I work for a union company, there are pleanty. ) 2 - Won't take jobs due to them thinking they are above those positions. ( i.e. Gas stations, fast food, etc. ) 3 - Are habitual users of Unemployment This is the data I care about, not really just the base numbers. The fact is, I can drive down the street and see help wanted signs at my local thorntons gas station, a sears home center, walmart, and the dairy queen near my home. I also travel in 4 other states, and have seen the same thing. I know this isnt represenative and every locale, but it does tell me something. I really could care less what data says, polls are wrong, so is alot of data provided by these agencies. Extending unemployment benefits and making gonvernment progams for the poor larger is nothing more then gonvernment crack so to speak. They get you addicted to the gonv. then you have no choice. You either lose the drive to better yourself, or the knowledge of how to do it.
  11. Im really glad Obama did that study, maybe he should reconsider his choice for surgeon general, she might be a dumbass...
