I hate bullies. I've never been bullied but I knew a lot of people who had suffered from so much verbal and physical torture. Should we always excuse their poor behavior and try to go on with our lives pretending that everything...

chillpill90 I have been a victim of bullying. I was bullied at the age of 9 or 8 because I have light brown skin, I was bullied at the school called racist names and even had my best friend turn on me. I got into trouble at school and tried to bunk off school at times,...

gloryacam There's this concept - transfer pricing, where companies study the impact of taxes on their production and/or sales in different countries including their home country, and where they see the least tax effect, they set up shop there. So it's studied whether...

andy77e Gloryacam: You missed the point. Luxury taxes hurt the poor, not the rich. If you tax a luxury good, the rich will buy from another country, and all the lower and middle class that make that good, will lose their jobs. Further, EVERY business, stock or...

Chiang_Mai_boy Your idea that all religions need to change is rather sweeping and gets lost in generalities. I do agree that all religions need to be dynamic and bring their mythology into agreement with the current state of human knowledge but all religions are not based on...

There is currently a proposal to tax American citizens for each mile they drive (www.msnbc.msn.com/id/42919365/#.TkmGdGsbMlM). This would most likely involved putting some kind of device in each car that would allow the government...

SpikeTheLobster Disastrous. A similar thing was proposed here in the UK but the implications for civil liberties (as well as economics) are horrific. Every car tracked. Every person tracked. The cost of goods rising exponentially for rural areas. Pay politicians less....

estherlou I wouldn't like it at all. It's none of their business how much I drive and I don't think it's right to tax my driving. The fairest way to gather taxes from everyone is to tax purchases...a sales tax increase.

Awinds It looks like they want to spread the TSA things slowly to automobiles as well. I agree that the government should look at itself to. Our government is so big and inefficient these days who knows how many millions or maybe even billions they waste every day!

lilbabycatapillar It's one thing to have an opinion, and to have a strong opinion and to stand up for what you believe in, even if it is wrong or hateful. The thing is, everyone thinks that their opinion is right, and many people want to be heard and spread their message. But...
