Hello all, Does anybody remember this hot-bed issue? Does anybody remember that Congress approved the building of the fence, yet backed away from the vote. Or that the fence is not yet built? Does anyone remember the issue of...

emeraldisle Hi ladyluna :) It was nice to see your discussion on this. I think for many this issue has been put on the back burner in comparison to other hot issues. This is one though we cannot continue to ignore. We need to get a handle on it and realize that by giving...

emeraldisle I live in Florida as well and see billboards and all forms of things in Spanish. It does make me mad. They are spending money to put things up in two or more languages when one language should be enough. Also where do we draw the line? We have a huge Greek and...

emeraldisle This is a subject I feel very strongly about. I don't think we should give any benefits to illegal aliens. Lets face it, we call them illegal because they broke our laws in their attempt to enter our country. They are criminals, plain and simple. I have no...

I have been a member of many PTC sites but only a few of the "bux" sites that have become very popular. The first one kept upping the payout so people wouldn't get paid and I avoided them afterwards but then I thought well I'll...

emeraldisle Well I'm not surprised that they are going down considering what they did with me. I went to the site and noticed it has a message up that there is a new admin. I seriously doubt it will change anything though. so far the bux sites have not impressed me at...

emeraldisle You're right they do have the option to change the TOS at any point but until they do they should have to honor it. According to them they had this change in effect for some time and it could be seen on the cash out/ convert page, which you can't see until you...

emeraldisle There are many good ones out there that do pay and are honest. Sadly there are many also that are scams. When looking at a PTC check to see if it sounds too good to be true. If they are offering you dollars for each click and have extremely high payouts...

emeraldisle You're very welcome. There are good ptcs out there it's just sad that there are some that give the rest bad names. It's those that are the problems and if they are the first you come in contact with it can sour you on the whole business. Hopefully if we can...

emeraldisle Do you really think they will pay me? I don't. I think they will find any excuse not to. Even if by some miracle I do get paid $5 from them I then lose 10% in order to use it since I have to pay .50 to have it transferred to my bank. I don't buy ads anywhere...

emeraldisle We re-use a lot of things and I'm a big user of freecycle. Not to mention coupons, but only if they are things I use already. I won't buy something just because I have coupon. I also really look for sales. We also shop at Sam's club to try and buy things in...
