Changing government/laws

It is never necessary. Raising the minimum wage is a tax on the middle class. The middle class mostly uses business that employ minimum wage making people. Ie grocery stores, fast food, things along these lines. If you raise the minimum wage, you further tax the middle class. Because the middle class has to deal with increased prices, they consume less. Thereby reducing the number of people needed to work in minimum wage paying jobs. Therefore, hurting the same group of people you intended to help.
fwiw, i once made minimum wage.

It also ****s over the poor. As minimum wage increases, alternative methods of getting low-skill jobs done become all the more reasonable.

Do away with bail? Besides the celebrity reason, what are your other reasons, surely you can come up with something better than that.

Celebs constitute a gigantic percentage of the people arrested, didnt you know?

On that topic, kinda unfair how celebs can hire bigtime attorneys while the average joe can't.

with the legalization of pot, it shouldnt be completely legalized, it should be completely decriminalized. it makes no sense how repeat pot offenders (depending on the act they were caught performing) get more years then a gang member did a few days ago for shooting a 17 year old kid in the back.

the gang member got 6 years for killing the kid, and pot offenders routinely get more than a slap on the wrist, if they are repeat offenders.

this "war on drugs" is a farce. its all about money, but think about how much money the government could make with a national tax of say as little as 10% on pot. if we took the necessary steps on decriminalizing marijuana, we could be living on the moon and doing a **** good job at it within the next 15 years with the money the gov't would make.

canada is on the right track...and as far as other drugs, everything else still gets treated the same way. put the poison peddlers in jail for as long as you want, imo.

Don't they have permission from the landowners to do this? You are for the restriction of landowner rights. If they tresspass and do it, then I agree, it should carry a fine.

How about changes to Social Security....before it goes bankrupt?

You may want to look into the government's future plans for tax loopholes...soon enough we are going to be paying a lot more income tax....//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

* Legalize Marijuana, and tax that sh*t like cigarrettes.

* Pick one side or another on Abortion. I don't care which.

* Cut out the Imperialist BS and stop sending troops into random middle eastern countries.

* Gay marriage? Whatever, leave it to the pastor marrying the couple to decide.

* Randomly raise the price of gas to $12 a gallon, and put hydrogen stations at every station in the US. Then pimp hydrogen cars like *** or sliced bread.

* Finish the **** fusion bomb, turn Iraq into a parking lot (Without any nasty radiation), and start the whole country over. This isn't because I don't like Iraq, it's just more feasable than any existing plans for peace or democracy.

* While we're at it, find a spot withing 60000 square miles of anyone encouraging ******* bombings, and turn that place into a parking lot, too. Shouldn't have to do this more than once to get the point across. Again, this is more for the countries that are actually suffering from ******* bombings.

* Replace Fossil Fuel with hydrogen fuel. Yeah, environmentalists love me. The "Clean, efficient, plentiful energy source of the future"! I don't care, I just want to see shit blow up more often in auto accidents. Hydrogen = fun!

* If your last name is Bush, you are no longer allowed to be president of the USA.

Can you explain the pick one side or the other on abortion. You mean to let it go on or to stop it completely? Stopping it completely, making it illegal or whatever, would be a bad thing.
