AidaLily @AidaLily (1450) • United States 1 May 13

How did this happen? What were they thinking when they made this site? Well I have the story... The conversation went as follows. (note parody granted there might be truth to this who knows) A: How are we going to improve the...

matersfish What bugs me the most about this isn't necessarily the look (although it's ass ugly), but rather that the navigation SUCKS BALLS! There is no homepage to speak of. I found this discussion by total accident, and I'm assuming that more people would chime in with...

Warning: Long post! I was asked a strange question today from a woman at the family center who is considering having children. The question probably isn't that strange but she asked me "What exactly are the benefits to...

joizee Hi there! I have to commend you for your long post. But it was a good read. Good point as well. Let me share my take. I am now a mother and I am definitely happy. I have dreamt of becoming a mother since childhood because I have seen how my grandmother and...

When was the last time YOU did something for your country?

thegreatdebater @thegreatdebater (7316) • United States 5 Apr 13

We, here in America, live in the greatest country in the world. But, this country is not as great as it has been, or could be. We once had a great president who asked Americans to give back to their country instead of taking...

Taskr36 A couple weeks ago I gave blood. I've donated a total of roughly 4 gallons over the years. To me it's one of the simplest, and quickest ways people can help their country, and literally save lives. It takes roughly 30 minutes for the whole process and you...

Who Thinks $400,000/Year is "Middle Class"?

anniepa @anniepa (27955) • United States 31 Dec 12

I mean, REALLY, who thinks $250,000 is middle class? I just read that polls show that most Americans consider anything above $150,000/year to be "rich" and I tend to agree with that assessment. Sure, I know there are some places...

MntlWard I've seen a couple of responses saying something to the effect of "Well, a business making 250K a year has to pay some of that to employees and other business expenses." Businesses aren't taxed on every dollar that goes in the till. They're taxed on their...

Gay Couples Adopting Children..

Jshean20 @Jshean20 (14347) • Canada 2 Sep 12

Toni I think it's not the gender preference that says if we could raise a child well or not. I've seen cruel parents who don't deserve a child. I've seen people who were successful after being raised by gay parents. So I don't really have a take which gender...

Dissing America, is Hollywood Wrong?

debrakcarey @debrakcarey (19887) • United States 8 Jul 12

I probably should post this under USA or America interests. I chose to post it under Politics because what was said was meant to be a political statement. Chris Rock tweeted: “Happy white peoples independence day the...

syramoon I won't comment on whether I think it's right or wrong, because it's his right to say it either way under the first amendment. It goes back to what Voltaire or some people claim Evelyn Beatrice Hall wrote, or to sum it up "I might not agree with what someone...

What is more damaging to the sanctity marriage: Divorce, or Gay Marriage?

thegreatdebater @thegreatdebater (7316) • United States 18 May 12

I listened to someone yesterday tell me about how upset he was that the president supported gay marriage. This was a man in his late 40's who owned his own business, and was an admitted republican. As we spoke I asked him how what...

matersfish I often count my blessings that I'm relatively young and am still impressionable enough that I actually want to know things rather than insisting I do know them. This allows me to take what I believe and to put it on the table as I stand back and look at it....

Romney is a bully?

mysticmaggie @mysticmaggie (2498) • United States 12 May 12

That's the story making the rounds. It's front page news in the Washington Post. I expect it to take over Newsweek and Time magazines along with most left leaning newspapers before it's over. Just a couple of tiny things make...

xfahctor Actually, the family of the purported bullying victim came out and said it never happened. I guess the kid passed away a few years ago, cancer of some sort, but the family is maintaining that it didn't happen. I don't plan on voting for Romney anyways, I have...

Listening to Mitt Romney talking about his plans to make America the place in the world where entreprenures are willing to invest their money again. I have to admit, I'm becoming a bit more encouraged. IF he can pull it off,...

lawdude The major problem we face is that both political parties are owned by special interests. The same cast of characters has worked behind the scenes in every administration to rig the system. Congress in the 1990s and 2000s deregulated the financial industry...

beamer88 I think I'd rather call it the proper age to have kids rather than the right age since what's important for me is the maturity of the person to have kids of their own, and maturity doesn't really have a pegged age. I mean, some mature early in life, some...

Questioning my motivation for helping the homeless (rant alert)

thegreatdebater Aidalily, the first thing you will learn about the politics section is that it is dominated by right wingers, who ignore ANY facts that you bring up, because those "facts" didn't serve their purpose. Presenting facts to many on here is a complete waste of...
