Yes, my kids and grandkids will thank him once they see the bill for the Iraq war.

EDIT: Rich people are also the biggest beneficiaries of taxes, since many of them get huge subsidies for their businesses and many of them also benefit from the government%26#039;s sale of public lands and resources (especially during the current administration). You shouldn%26#039;t assume that because someone criticizes the Bush administration, that automatically makes them a liberal.

What do you think of Mission work in 3rd world countries?

We provide food, water, clothes, shoes etc. to Haitian villages. We go in the %26quot;name of the Lord%26quot; but do not preach to them. We just love them. Especially the children. The Haitian government doesn%26#039;t do much for their people. There is 85% unemployment rate. If others don%26#039;t come in and help these people, they are doomed. Do you think this is a good thing? Why or why not?

What do you think of Mission work in 3rd world countries?student loan

With all due respect to the previous answerer, I don%26#039;t find it hard to believe that you don%26#039;t preach. There are many different Christian perspectives, and the church I belong to would likely have major issues with a missionary who thought that the job should be about preaching. There is no better way to reach people%26#039;s hearts than by loving them, and that implies helping them with their most basic needs.

I think it is a fantastic thing to go into a foreign country to do this kind of work, though it is also a calling, which means that not everyone is meant to do it. If you have reflected on all the difficulties very carefully and still believe you are meant to do this, then good on you! However, there is no shame in deciding that you, with your own personality and strengths, can do better for people right here at home.

Cheers and good luck!

Why do the liberal elite drive around in limousines while the working class starve to death?

State capitlism has to go?

why do people think they need a government to tell them how to run their buisness, control taxes and where the money is spent. Decide whether our school system is working or not etc. Most of the people i know and talk to, are hard working small buisness owners that can hardly afford to hirer workers to help them so they end up doing 80% of the work themselves. Is that the true american dream? working 80+ hours a week simply because small buisness owners cant afford all the things they have to do to hire outside peoples to help out? Thus effects the job output and effects the unemployment rate. While the state is saying Walmart is ok to bring into your neighborhood but.we will tax small buisness.possibly put them out of business so they can work at walmart, further making the state and large corps richer.Im not anti capitlism.I just think the state shouldnt have control as to how we run our businesses The state seems to be fascist who suppresses our freedomsof living the american dream

You are describing state socialism. Capitalism requires low corporate and personal taxes so that monies are available for research/product improvement and people have money to spend. The free market decides prices and competition prevents abuses. With your last sentence, you are getting close since fascism is a form of socialism.

Has anybody else ever sat up at night and worried so much...?

about what is going to happen to America that they couldn%26#039;t sleep? Seriously, I didn%26#039;t get to sleep until 2:00 last night and I got in bed at 11:30 because I was thinking about Social Security, and the deficit, and the prospects of other countries refusing to buy our bonds, and the illegal immigrant problem, and the unemployment rate especially in Michigan, and other things. I know a lot of people worry about what life is going to be like for the kids, but I am the kid and is my generation doomed?

Has anybody else ever sat up at night and worried so much...?online loan

Wow. I%26#039;m impressed that you are worrying about such big issues rather than about the more mundane things that keep most of your contemporaries awake. I guess the only prospective I can offer you is that when enough people get concerned about problems, eventually they get solved, although there is a lot of posturing and name calling and dramatics in the process before things get worked out. When I was a kid, we used to have drills in school where we would practice what to do if the USSR dropped the bomb on us (like hiding under our desks would save us from a nuclear bomb!) and then years later, I had a Russian friend who had immigrated here after the cold war was over and she told me that little Russian school kids had been doing the same thing. Now the USSR is gone, the cold war is over, and we have new worries -- terrorists and rogue nations that have the bomb. There are economic concerns, too, but really in the greater scheme of things, I worry more about the terrorists. But I don%26#039;t sit up at night worrying about it, because I am powerless to do much. (I have an occasional sleepless night when I am worried about one of my teenage kids, but I can%26#039;t make them do everything I wish they would do either.) I guess I have faith that there are enough good people in the world that in the end we can make things right. One thing we all have to do is not depend on the government or anyone else to take care of us. We have to take responsibility for our own lives. I am not counting on social security to sustain me. If enough people in every generation take responsibility first for themselves and then to begin solving the problems around them, we can work it out. The fact that you are so concerned means that you can be part of the solution. Get educated, get active, and help build a better future for you and those who come after you.

I do what I do for several reasons, mainly family. One child in college and one in high school. I%26#039;m not willing to move to a bigger city just for bigger money and having to deal with big city issues. You gotta make choices and take the good with the bad.|||I would do whatever I needed to do to support my family and keep our home. In fact, when I was part of a RIF a few years back, I applied ANYWHERE I could think of. A job is a job. Right now, I think I%26#039;d be happier in a %26quot;menial%26quot; job than where I am now, but at the moment, the pay cut would put us too far into debt.
