There will always be rich and poor. Upper, lower and middle class. The rich will always get richer and the poor, poorer right? A sensitive subject has risen about paying poor people to get "fixed" has people in uproar. Is this discrimination or is this common sense strategy?

Transportation is an issue whether it be for commercial or personal use. Time and money is wasted on traffic on major roads and highways. Poorly designed roads, lazy government or big business? Which one is it?

Dear Mister Taxman
Taxes were created to help people but with the increasing number of unemployed and those who are just simply not willing to work, a few people end up paying for the rest. The government has been finding more ways to tax what people do. The only taxes that seem reasonable for me to pay are the ones that I use. Let the government hear this message!

Army: You don't need to know about it
During history, things have happend that have been kept quiet from the American people. People have claimed that UFOs have landed but the U.S. Government denies it.

Government: Go directly to jail, do not pass go
If this doesn't sound like a phrase from the game Monopoly I don't know what world we're living in. I roll the dice when it's my turn just to lose payday while doing my part in deciding one winner. Once somoene is in control, they can ony gain more power and will ultimately remain in control. Is this what democracy has come to or have the leaders manipulated the laws to put their interests first?

Second amendment at risk
I am allowed to own a gun and there is no one that will be able to take that right from me. I will buy from locals if I have to in order to protect myself.
