    Congress' Food Tab: $604,000 for Bottled Water, $152 at Quiznos.

    Except their jobs don't come with the perk of lording over the country. What a thrill it must be for them.

    Congress' Food Tab: $604,000 for Bottled Water, $152 at Quiznos.

    Because that's really their only source of income. :|

    The price on a pack of cigarettes has skyrocketed to $14.50 at some New York City

    Do Indian Reservations sell cigarettes cheap? They've been getting pricier and pricier. Trying to look for alternatives.

    Unemployment rate falls in 39 states in June

    Students looking for work.. maybe. That's my situation. Only reason it might change is because I have a friend that knows people. Networking. Unfortunately not everyone is so lucky. Oh well for them, right.

    Is it wrong to put annoying posters on ignore?

    Yeah, I don't have anyone on ignore. Those I find annoying enough to put on the ignore list I find too tempting to argue with.

    Is it wrong to put annoying posters on ignore?

    Depends on the reason you put them on ignore. Is it to ignore dissenting opinions or is it to ignore those unwilling to question themselves.

    From themselves? That's a really slippery slope. Usually leads to.. tyranny.

    The price on a pack of cigarettes has skyrocketed to $14.50 at some New York City

    Good grief how many times have we gone over this already?? Smokers don't raise the cost of insurance! A study was published citing that healthy people are responsible for higher health care costs because they live longer and tend to "hang on." Enough already.

    Forced organ donation for executed criminals.

    Because while organ donation provides a very practical good, burial serves a more immeasurable good. If you've had a loved one die, someone you were very close to, visiting their grave to say goodbye, to simply "feel" the individual is still around, to pay respects, place flowers on their burial...

    In Detroit, Miss a PTA Meeting and Go Directly to Jail

    Never going to fly. It would be immediately dismissed by the courts, if it somehow miraculously became legislation.

    Forced organ donation for executed criminals.

    I think Mother Theresa would have been the wonderful person she was and I think Osama Bin Laden would have found any excuse to wield power and influence unjustly. I'm more inclined to believe that personal temperament draws individuals to certain sects/types of religions rather than the other...

    My Take: Christian politicians should start acting Christian

    You're an atheist - I'm an atheist (well, agnostic, but atheist mostly). Why would you believe religion has some sort of magical ability to make humans any less human (i.e. flawed)?

    My Take: Christian politicians should start acting Christian

    And what is wrong with cynically discussing politicians. Politicians are the scum of the earth. Obama is a moron. Nancy Pelosi is a lying, two-faced [word I can't use here]. See? It's fun. I see nothing wrong with it.
