With the passing of the Healthcare Bill, why are so many people against such a move which in theory provides healthcare for ALL Americans? The only reasons given that it is unconstitutional or the US cannot afford it. But surely,...

mslena75 Because Americans are pigheaded and don't like change. At the root of all here the ALMIGHTY DOLLAR, and God forbid that people are started to be treated equally! I for one am pleased. It's not a NHS, but it's a step in the right direction. People are fussing...

If you're like me, you're an avid reader who owns lots of books. Personally, I have trouble finding places to put them all. I have one bookshelf which I have stacked the books in horizontally so that I could fit as many books in...

mslena75 I don't buy many books. I check them out from the library, or I will buy a few on my Nook, which is nice, since it can up to 1500, and more if I expand the memory.

It is a dilemma, and I just don't know how should I use my debit card, and at what situation I should use it. Since many articles advise not to use debit card on big bucks items, or "pay it now, delivery late" type of items. I...

mslena75 I use my debit card, I try not to use my credit and we are working hard to pay them down. You can dispute with your financial institution on your debit card as well.

I was listening to the radio and there was a man from the Heritage Foundation (a Conservative Group). This person is a Health Care specialist at the foundation. He pointed out that the difference between this bill and the one that...

mslena75 It is probably going to take some time, but in the end it will save money. Everyone will have to contribute something. Over time, more people will have access to preventative measures to their health, rather than having to go to the ER when they just can't...

mslena75 In your case, you are right...it isn't hurtful...but only because you plan responsibly and save money in the event that something DOES happen to you (good for you)! But the simple fact of that matter is that most can't or won't do what you're doing.

mslena75 Some people on MyLot appear to have diarrhea of the mouth. You think the site would catch on that some people just type crap just to type it and don't say anything of substance. Wouldn't it be nice if we could delete rubbish responses off of our own discussion...

mslena75 Nothing is perfect, and the fact is that anything is an improvement over what we have right now. To be such a 'rich' country, our country is very poor when it comes to taking care of our citizens. We still have a long way to go, but kudos to the Obama...

What is the best type of exercise advised to patients with rheumatoid arthritis? Please include the rationale.

mslena75 I would assume that water exercise would be a good choice, as the water alleviates any pressure that may be put on the joints.

I love animals so one would expect me to stop eating meat. Unfortunately, I cannot. There are many reasons for this; the main two being I am severely anaemic even when I eat meat and secondly, I do not like many...

mslena75 Nope, I don't feel guilty at all. I can only imagine what probably does go on in slaughterhouses, but it doesn't make me feel bad. I eat meat every day! I don't feel like I could get by being a vegetarian. I do like vegetables, but not such a large variety...

mslena75 I'm not sure. I think today that many children just aren't taught manners by their parents. I can't count the number of times I have been practically mowed over by young people with no word at all. Heck, in the neighborhood where I live, I have had kids leave...

Which show do you prefer? I like Family guy better, often the Simpsons is boring n more dry humor.

mslena75 If I had to choose between the two, definitely Family Guy. They are both funny, but the humor on Family Guy is much more blunt and intelligent. Love it!

For this week's performances, the American Idol Top 12 contestants must choose songs of The Rolling Stones. Any suggestions for any of the contestants? Share it here!

mslena75 Honestly I have no suggestions. I don't think any of them are suited, pretty sure it's going to be a train wreck! But then again perhaps I will be pleasantly surprised.

Is it a good thing to extend UC to 99 months? I think it will discourage people from looking for a job because they have some security and lots of free time. Many are working "under the counter" and enjoy it. What do you think...

mslena75 You make a very good point. We have to keep spending spending spending to get out of the hole. I think things are becoming very scary in this country, I can't imagine.

mslena75 I think it is a double edged sword. I say that because I absolutely think that there is a need...but I do think some people get comfortable. I would be scared out of my mind if I found myself a job. What gets me is people who complain about not having a job,...
