Minimum wage
Making the FICA "contribution" progressive would accomplish the same thing and not impact employment rates at the bottom end.

Disgruntled lawsuit filer killed judges relatives
Damn, that sucks for the judge. Looks like she won't get any justice. 707036[/snapback] It was a defacto death sentence - what more do you want? Idiot did the right thing and saved the taxpayers the cost of a trial.

"special friends" WTF?
http://www.harktheherald.com/northcounty/m...order=0&thold=0 Despite "no evidence of a plan or danger," a Pleasant Grove Junior High student was suspended Friday for compiling a list of students that officials say he didn't like. Blaine Edman, the school's principal, said as school and police officials investigatedthe list, "it became obvious that it wasn't students he liked, it was students he had a problem with or didn't like." The student had titled his list, "Special Friends."

It must suck as a parent to know your 6 year old is both violent and gay.

Hannibal Lechter
I've taken the contestants who got at least one vote from the alien anal probing poll and moved them into this bonus round. Here the stakes are much higher - the winner gets to become Hannibal's "guest" and eat their own fried brains declaring them delicious. Where anal probed abductees usually survive the affair, the winner of this round probably would not.

Minimum wage
You're 19 years old and you have such advanced ways of thinking? Why? Sounds like you aren't enjoying your youth. Sadly, I've squandered my youth on books and learning.

Michael Savage is pushing the increase in the minimum wage. That alone is reason enough to be against it.

Do you believe in ghosts?
I don't know anything about ghosts, but the living dead are all working in the local Burger King.

Minimum wage
TINSTAAFL Heinlein used the word word "ain't" in The Moon Is a Harsh Mistress when the acronym was coined. I'm a purist, I'm going to stick with the original TANSTAAFL

Minimum wage
The problem with "welfare" is in many cases its an "all in" deal. Its not really designed to just give graduated assistance depending on need. Some jobs simply may not be worth paying higher minimum wage, becuase their product/service becomes uncompetitive at that level and would just be exported. Workshop type places that hire mentally handicapped folks for simple assembly tasks and stuff they can handle come to mind. Price those workshops out of business and a lot of handicapped people will be living a lot less satisfying lives. Need to look at ripple effects when doing something like this. TANSTAAFL

NBA refs in the midwest
Jeez, what a bunch of tools. Listen to an away Heat vs Bulls/Pacers game some time and count the fouls for/against. The announcers remark on it all the time.

Minimum wage
Does she even want that job? Welfare/AFDC sounds like a better deal. 704420[/snapback] welfare is considered a temporary program. if you dont have a job by a certain time, they boot you. 704421[/snapback] If you can't get trained up for something better than minimum wage in that "certain time" (what is it, like 2 years?) then you're pretty pathetic. If you're THAT pathetic, then there's other institutional programs in place to deal with you.
