I know it sounds confusing. But my feelings are very mixed right now over life and death. I work as a nurse where I have people who are on vents for the rest of their lives. Theybreath with machines through holes in their necks. And they are usally very old, sick people. And yet someone is paying for these people to live. I know I don't want to live with tubes coming out of my body to help me breath or to feed me. I also don't get to chose who lives or dies there.
And there are people making choices to allow their loved ones to live that way.
For me the whole abortion thing is also a choice. i may not always agree with you and the choices you make. I would much rather see someone who got pregnant by mistake/accident or what ever be helped to allow that baby to live and even help that person care for
"Ok fine, I'll vote for more drilling and you vote to save the ? what, the flat piece of dirt in Alaska? " I'm undecided on drilling, but I have to point this out as a brilliant synopsis of the complex arctic ecology. Let no one suggest that Republicans don't have a profound appreciation for and deep insight into Nature.
Wow...it really infuriates you that someone who is down on thier luck gets a cent of your money doesn't it? I feel so bad that you can't even imagine needing help and someone saying..to bad for you..you are worhtless. YOur taxes do go for other things than helping all those worhtless people in this country btw...
Medicade is for retired people so they can live off SS and still get medical care. I'm sure it will horrify you that some older people might be benefitting from your money too.
The point was..do you give when you don't have to? Would you ever stoop to help another human being? THe answer apparently is no. As for what you take..you consume do you not? YOu consume with no regards to the environment or anyone else by your own selfish statements. I never meant to imply you were on welfare or anything of the sort. It was a comment on how most only think of themselves and those in need can wander off and die.
WHat would you like to see welfare money go to? Sterilizing the poor? Simply excecuting those who don't find jobs in a certian amount of time? Camps for those with little to go to?
The folks I've seen talking about money and complaining about taxes have been those who claim their taxes will go up under an Obama presidency -- therefore they are making at least 250K.
I think my folks make that --- but I don't know anyone else who does.

What should be done with YOUR money?
I know this is going to sound radical, but many of us don't measure what America has to offer, or what life has to offer, in terms of money.

Just because she may be wealthy does not give you the right to make her feel bad or guilty.
Jealous?! OMG of what?
I pity her and her lack of compassion and humanity. I don't care how much money she has. Having a soul is much more important to me than money.

My problem with Palin is that she wants to take away mine and other women's RIGHT TO CHOOSE away!
