School uniforms stance: aganist:
School uniforms take away the individuality that makes us all different. Yes, some people get into fights because of what they are wearing, but that's just us high schoolers. If we were all to wear uniforms, we would not notice who's who, and we would still get made fun of. I believe that school uniforms are just another way for the government to get your money.

Business review: 2.0 stars business name: chi ko roo. city: toronto. categories: food, breakfast & brunch, american (traditional), restaurants:
It was just ok for me, at best. The menu is large but it comes across as very chain-restaurant-like. My friend had a burger and fries and I had a chicken sandwich with avocado and sweet potato fries. You get a salad first - I had caesar and my friend had garden. The caesar salad was the highlight of my meal! It was fresh and crisp and nicely garlicy. My friend seemed to like the garden salad ok but it looked pretty basic to me - mostly lettuce. My friend enjoyed his burger and I have to say it did look like a good burger. My sandwich came out cold, which is not a good start to a toasted sandwich. It might have been pretty good if it were hot, although it still would have been a little bland. The sweet potato fries were good, but that's not something you can't get at most pubs. It's true - the portion sizes are huge. But I do not make my meal decisions based solely on caloric intake.

Business review: 5.0 stars business name: vietnam grille. city: charlotte. categories: vietnamese, restaurants:
Down South Blvd, right off the road is a really cool little place called Vietnam Grille. It is a crowded ( which shows how good it is) little clean restaurant. Yesterday in Charlotte it was windy and damp and cold-how perfect for Pho! We went at Lunch time when it was very full but got a seat very quickly and our order was taken in perfect time. We ordered some Crispy Spring Rolls and #26 which is the Beef Pho. Spring Rolls were delicious, all the sauces on the side of table went on to my plate to make a delicious dipping sauce. The Soup arrived --Huge Bowl! Filled with a delicious broth and noodles and beef and then all the extras on the side to add, the bean sprouts, Thai basil, cilantro, lemon, and jalapenos! It was piping hot and delicious..You have to try it ..I will be going back again and again!!

Business review: 4.0 stars business name: jimmy john's. city: paradise. categories: sandwiches, restaurants, delis, fast food:
A great All-American sub sandwich place. The ingredients always taste fresh, and the bread is always soft. The service is always really friendly and they always make the sandwiches very quickly, which I appreciate. However, I am giving them four stars because on more than one occasion they have asked me if I wanted to add cheese to my order and I said yes, they charge me and then I get the sandwich and there is no cheese. Other than that I always have a great experience.

Business review: 1.0 stars business name: caffe boa. city: tempe. categories: restaurants, italian, american (new), breakfast & brunch:
After reading all of the wonderful reviews on Caffe Boa I am sad to say I didn't have a good experience there. First off, let me mention I didn't taste a morsel of food. I was in the area with 4 other friends and we decided to walk in last night at about 7:30 - on a Tuesday. Our friend had called for a reservation for 4 and when we showed up with one extra person, the hostess gave us a look of complete devastation and stress - She would have to push two tables together in a practically empty restaurant. She sat us and we sat, and sat, and sat. We were never greeted. Not even a water. We gave the server/manager/whomever a good 10 minutes. Well, we got up and went to Z'Tejas. I will try again - maybe on a busier night when a newly sat table may not slip through the cracks. I figure our odds of being acknowledged will be greater. :)

If your spouse committed murder and he or she confided in you would you turn them in:
I really dont have an exact yes or no answer to this question depending on the situation. If It really got all out of hand and the police new it was my man that did it and they got all the evidence and witnesses that prove it was him that convicted the crime then yes I would turn him in. If they know its him then its just a matter of time.

If your spouse committed murder and he or she confided in you would you turn them in:
It really depends on what had happened, she would have to tell me the story and I would have to be able to sympathize with her and understand why she did what she did. If I truly felt that she was remorseful for what she did and I can sympathize with her about why she committed murder than maybe I could forgive her and not turn her in.

India has the potential to lead the world:
i think, the india is not ready to lead the world because of many reasons.. 1.) the politians of our country are involved in black money cases. they try to gain or earn money as possible. 2.) they always try to make a big issue of useless topics. e.g., if a politian says something about another politian, they try to make it a big issue .

William farquhar ought to be honoured as the rightful founder of singapore:
HE HAS A BOSS(RAFFLES) HE HAS TO FOLLOW HIM AND NOT GO ABOUT DOING ANYTHING ELSE IF THEN WHY CANT FARQUHAR HELP SINGAPORE AFTER HE WAS FIRED!!! I SAID HE DOES NOT HAVE THE POSITION TO BE THE FOUNDER!!!! Farquhar has a boss!(raffles) he has to follow raffles and not go about doing anything else if then why cant farquhar help singapore after he was fired? I say again you do need to be in a certain position to be a founder as time, money, effort is all invested. You must know people who would help you.

Is porn wrong:
The argument that porn would expose one to the reality in life, and thus increasing one's maturity and prevent possible future sexual assaults, is totally crap. porn is definitely wrong. after a dosage, the guilt of wasting ur time, wasting energy, wasting effort and not devoting urself to another thing and regretting that you should not have started would almost kill you. trust me. its a road that shld not be taken, its as bad as smoking and dugs. i think the only reason its not banned in most developed countries is that they are facing an aging population.

Evolution vs creation:
This is this common view of the creationist argument. None of what Sean said has anything to do with science. This is a theological view of the world. . This is all pseudo-science. I understand if you are religious, just dont try to hide it as science. Science never has been about theology. It is about the scientific method. If you really want to debate the science of evolution, you must at least get the scientific method down. http://pasadena.wr.usgs.gov/office/ganderson/es10/lectures/lecture01/sci.method.jpg

Is porn wrong:
Is porn wrong? Absolutley not!! Everyone has their own definition of morality. If you don't believe in it then don't look at it. The people who participate in it do it because they want to and they probably enjoy it. Whether your the person watching porn or participating in it, porn is a choice not a case of right or wrong.

Which type of endeavor is better a personal pursuit or advancing the common good:
I think advancing the common good would be better in the long run. I mean sure you can worry about yourself, but put it like this, "Your not the most important person in the world". If everyone just thought about just them and not about other people where would we be. Its better to put others first and think about yourself later then to put yourself first.

Is it better to have a lousy father or to be fatherless:
Even though your father might not be the best or always there for you he is still your father. Every father has a certain connection with there children and thats what shapes and molds a son or daughters character and personality. I believe our parents play a major role in determining who we are even if they are lousy they are still our kin.

Is it better to have a lousy father or to be fatherless:
It's better to have a father than to not have one. For example, me. I grew up without a father and if I had a choice of being a billionaire or to have a father growing up, I'd choose to have a father. I'm basically a bastard legally because he isn't even on my birth certificate. No one should grow up without a father because honestly, it messes with them. Kids in school will ask about your dad and you have nothing to say. Whether he is lousy or not, a child should always be in touch with their dad. Even if he isn't with the mother anymore.

Is it better to have a lousy father or to be fatherless:
I would rather have a lousy father than being fatherless because I would at least have the tranquility of knowing who my father is than spending my whole life wondering who he was. If I was to grow up fatherless I would grow with an emptiness in me. I would prefer growing up with a lousy father and learn from his mistakes than not having a father at all.

Water bottles, good or bad? Many people believe plastic water bottles to be good. But the truth is water bottles are polluting land and unnecessary. Plastic water bottles should only be used in emergency purposes only. The water in those plastic are only filtered tap water. In an emergency situation like Katrina no one had access to tap water. In a situation like this water bottles are good because it provides the people in need. Other than that water bottles should not be legal because it pollutes the land and big companies get 1000% of the profit.

Tv is better than books:
I think T.V. is more helpful as the you can watch and listen to something being explained like if we read about budding or spore formation we have to create an image about that in mind, but when we watch the animation of budding then we could understand better. Some people can't even imagine so T.V. is helpful. As concerning the time limit or harm to our eyes, we should watch T.V. in a limit, because the excess of everything is harmful, even reading of books. Surveys have found that a normal person can remember 10% of what he had read and 50% of what he had listened and watched.

I find most religions absolutely ridiculous and illogical, the only people who follow them are those who were brainwashed in childhood and really have no individual thought process. Most of the followers at least. Then there are theists who will twist ANY logic to fit their views. They're intelligent ones that you have to watch out for ;) I'm not an atheist by any means, but I'd rather call myself an atheist than a Christian. It allows for more logic in my mind.

Gay marriage right or wrong:
This idea is essentially playing with semantics. Most people who are against gay marriages are really against gays, so calling it a "civil union" might shut their mouth, but will still not satisfy them. Furthermore, the effects on society are bound to be minimal on an overpopulated Earth where global warming will drastically reduce the already overtaxed ability of Nature to feed us. And if "undermining the assumptions of law that has developed over hundreds of years" is really an issue, than law should never change. We should revert back to tribes & slavery - why challenge any assumption?

Which type of endeavor is better a personal pursuit or advancing the common good:
I think i will go with personal persuit because no matter what we do we think of ourself first. I think its the human nature.But personal pursuit does not mean being selfish and only caring about oneself.I need to think about me first,success and then think of others. Everyone does think of themselves before thinking about others. First i need to make me happy to make others happy. This way i can make my life better and be who i am.

Which type of endeavor is better a personal pursuit or advancing the common good:
A personal pursuit of mine has always been to be the best pole vaulter that I can be, or the best at anything you do. I have learned that while trying to achieve this personal goal I have learned so much about trying to be a more responsible and more obedient. I believe in pursuing personal pursuit and personal goals is a better endeavor simply because if you strive to be good at something, it will help you grow as a person. From my personal experience, pursuing a personal goal has helped other people in this world.

Which type of endeavor is better a personal pursuit or advancing the common good:
Well for me its a kind of a 50/50. I think that evryone should be less selfish and do things that are "advancing the common good", but then again on the other hand we live in the real world and we are going to things that better benifit us. For example in your job your not going to try to make another employe, your going to try to make yourself look good so that you will get more money.

Which type of endeavor is better a personal pursuit or advancing the common good:
I thing personal pursuit because i believe that you have to help yourself first to accomplish your goals because how can you help someone if you dont help yourself. Helping yourself first would make you a better person and i think that after you achieve your goals and becoming a better person you would be able to help the common good.

Question regarding perjury see details.?:
He's a convict, she doesn't have much to worry about legally. There's no chance (almost...) of her being brought to trial on a perjury case, but he might be able to do something in civil court... honestly if she has a new car she should give the car in question back just because it won't be worth the hassle. Remember it's up to the distric attourney whether or not to bring criminal charges, and he's not likely to get involved in a family dispute like this... Even in the very obscure possibility that the DA did even consider the case, he won't prosecute for one very good reason. The case would be based on one thing, the word of a convict against the word of your neice, her mother, and her grandmother. DA's don't prosecute cases they know they can't win.

Should police officers be given more power to carry out their mandates?:
I think if you(we) expect law enforcement to be able to do a certain job, then they should be duly empowered in writing to take the necessary actions, including use of force, to carry out the duties of that job. I also think that citizens should be more involved in community policing. Neighborhood watch is a great program, if there were more people out there doing it, there'd be less demand for police etc.

Should all victimless crimes be legalized in the us?:
I don't think there are any victimless crimes, by definition. We might ask why particular laws are enacted, because they seemingly don't hurt an individual, group, or society as a whole. But you have to look at the full effect of the action to determine if there is harm to society. For example, prostitution should probably be legalized and regulated, as in many European countries. However, some aspects, such as working a street corner, cause harm to a neighborhood, and should remain illegal. Requiring them to work only in licensed brothels would be appropriate. Similar considerations would apply to other 'victimless' crimes.

Guns.....good or bad?:
In my personal opinion, guns are bad. They should be used only by law enforcement officials and not ordinary citizens. I lost my brother due to an accident involving a gun, and knowing that just anyone nowadays (depending on where you live) can purchase a firearm without even obtaining a license in some cases, makes me cringe with frustration and disbelief! I've just recently seen a report on the TV news that claims that even owning a fake gun such as the now-famous 'paint-ball guns' can lead to serious violence and even death. In some cases, people were accidentally killed or seriously injured while playing among themselves. In other cases, they were mistakenly shot by police who believed they had pointed a real gun at them... Let's leave guns in the hands of those who know how to use them in order to protect law-abiding citizens everywhere!

Do i have a case for small claims?:
*shakes head in disbelief* Why do people answer questions when they have absolutely no idea what they are talking about? Don't bother consulting a lawyer on this one. It would cost you too much. This is exactly what small claims is designed for -- someone like you with a case small enough that lawyers should not be involved. Sue. On the complaint, spell out the facts of your case and then ask for alternative relief. Meaning -- ask for the car to be put in your name. Then put down that if the court denies you the car, that you are asking for all payments made on the car to be returned to you. Assuming the facts as you have presented them are true, then the court will almost certainly grant you one fo these two remedies, possibly with interest.

In michigan,i was billed $8040.00 for a 4 mth. stay in jail , which was not court ordered; isn't that illegal?:
Something is missing from the story. I took a look at the statute and it says that the County can seek reimbursement "for any expenses incurred by the county in relation to a charge for which a person was sentenced to a county jail" as more fully described in the statute. The statute is clear that a conviction is required. If the charges were dismissed or you were found not guilty, then the County cannot seek reimbursement. If you were found guilty and sentenced to County jail, then you must pay. If you reached a plea agreement and were sentenced to "time served", then the County can seek reimbursement. If you sat in jail for 4 months, you were either convicted or you couldn't make bail while you were waiting for trial. If you were convicted, even with a plea bargain, you probably owe the money.

Do yoy think in civil matters that lawyers look out for your interest?:
Lawyers are motivated by a combination of money and power. Without legal disputes, such as in civil matters, there would be a dramatic decline in the need for those lawyers. So, yes lawyers are trying to make you money but, the bottom line is their pocket-book, not yours!!! So, this is really a catch 22 where both sides can win big but, the lawyers assume lots of risk in civil matters--which in some cases they make NO money, if they lose your dispute. So, before lawyers touch many civil cases they will pose some really important questions, i.e, is this a winnable case and is this worth my time--considering how much I (lawyer) could potentially earn? Civil law is still a popular area of law but, there is a huge need now for immigration lawyers. So, if law is your interest then consider that area.

Gay marriage, isn't this a religious issue?:
Civil marriage (i.e. the license you get when you get married) is not religious in any way, shape or form. It is in its very nature controlled by the government and government thus has the right and responsibility to define it. I don't think it should do so in a way that blatantly discriminates against a group like homosexuals, but it is most certainly within the government's prerogative to define marriage. If you find a church that agrees to, you can have a wedding ceremony to whomever or whatever you like, but only the government can decide if the government is going to recognize it.

What is your view about pakistan govt. and terror ?:
As every one know the terrorists were created by Pakistan, atlease the ones which are active in India. This was done by the government which was in power previously. Now that the present government is trying to build up the gaps between the two nations are trying to come closer to each other, the terrorists are afraid they might loose their job so they are turning against Pak now. I think it will take a while to eliminate all the terrorists if the same procedure continue.

No. Cops need the permission of the owner of the house to search it without a warrant or reasonable suspicion that someone's life was in danger. Edit: I wanted to add that it is disturbing how many people are saying your brother could let the police in. It is completely illegal. How could any reasonable person think that a 14 year-old, clearly not an adult, could have authority to consent?

I have received a subpoena addressed to a particular person. the person being subpoenaed got mad.?:
Why did you accept it in his stance? This isn't like a prize or a package from UPS that you can accept on someone's behalf. A supoena is a very important document sent by the courts, with the specific destination being to the person in question, not the person's dog or girlfriend or stupid coworkers. By accepting the stupid slip, you made it easy for ther server to nonchalantly say he "served" the document to the destination person, when in fact it was not. To make an analogical comparison, would you have accepted someone's document if it were a lawsuit. Are you that nosy for someone? The fact is, that person can deny that he was served because you have no real authority to give subpeonas. He can say you burned it and he never got it (no signatures that he himself received anything), and you could be in deep water for that court offense, including possible jail. So, yes he has a decent right to be pissed at you. I would.

Why does george bush think it is up to him to decide if 2 homosexuals can get married?:
Because Jr. doesn’t realize (despite having been told and having pledged twice) that his job is to protect, and defend the constitution of the United States. He thinks his job is to do a variety of other things. If you watch him speak for long enough, he will tell you what he thinks his job is, usually something along the lines of “to lead” or “to tell people what I am thinking” or “to unite Americans behind my common cause” or some other rubbish – never to protect and defend the constitution. So to answer your question, Jr. thinks it is his job to decide if homosexuals can get married, because he truly honestly has no idea what his job really is.

Should local governments have to pay recompense if your land is devalued due to a rezone?:
Assuming such value could be reasonable calculated, then I would have no problem with a legislature passing a law like this. It meets the intent of the 5th Amendment Takings Clause, and if the state decides they want towns to play nice -- that can't be a bad thing. The only potential downside is the cost of litigation if lots of people start suing the towns and counties to recover what they think they might have potentially lost, based on what some zoning code did in another part of town. But that's a matter of writing the law intelligently and not allowing such legal loopholes.

If abortion is 100% morally right then why do most woman feel guilty after having an abortion.?:
Its not Morally right. I consider myself to be pro-choice. I would never look down on or criticize someone who has had an abortion but I know that in my heart its wrong and not an option for me. But I would much rather have these women who have their mind set on doing it go to a clean sterile facility and not some rusty shack and but their lives at risk as well. These women are mothers, daughters, sisters, aunts etc. I think every one knows its not morally right they aren't motivated to have an abortion bc its morally right I think they choose to because of situational factors. N I think most women feel guilty, ashamed, embarrassed and wrong about their option but they felt that was their only way out

Was in a car accident... lawyer wants to settle have questions need advice?:
Your post is a little unclear. In any event, these are really questions you should be asking your lawyer. It's his job to help you understand the consequences of accepting any settlement offer. Write down all your questions, and then meet with your lawyer and ask him. I imagine the settlement involves having all medical bills paid, and that the $20k settlement is for your pain and suffering. Generally the lawyer will take his fee (either 1/3 of 1/4) of the settlement as his fee, depending upon the terms of your engagement with him. So it's most likely that all medical bills will be paid, and you will get $20,000, part of which will go to the attorney to pay his fee.

Forgery of notary?:
Sounds like you need a different attorney, and a bail bond agent. First of all this is enough to bring charges against the attorney, the notary, your mother, and YOU. Put all this together and the crime begins with CONSPIRACY! This violates most state notary laws, attorney responsiblity rules, not to mention fraud, forgery, and fraudlent schemes. If you want to correct this situation I would certainly be the first one to speak to the authorities about this. Deeds must be recorded by the state so finding out about this is easy. The "real" inheritor won't have to look too hard to find out what has happened. If I were you I would take cover.

If the "amnesty" bill gets passed, and illegal immigrants are only required to pay 3yrs of back taxes.....:
What they are talking about doing is not right. There are current laws on our books that would allow our govt to fine that illegal alien $250,000, plus incarceration, then deportation. Also, there are laws on our books that prohibit employers from hiring undocumented workers. They all need to follow the current laws. You are right. If you or I were to disobey the laws like these people are (employers as well as illegal aliens), we would be locked up for years. It's just not right.

Stealing....?:
Since this is a family member, you have to work things out. Confront them privately and tell them to stop it. Threaten to tell the whole family if they do not repay what they took-not just from you but your entire family. Do not fall for sob stories. The time for sob stories was before she took the money. What did she need the money for? Gambling, drugs, etc? Then demand that she gets counciling. If it was for a valid reason, then you need to be firm but fair. This is not how people behave; especially towards family. Avoid getting the police involved if possible. This will only lead to being on Dr. Phil. Change the locks and explain she is no longer welcome in your house.

Will you agree if your government wants to apply a regulation about porns and sexuality?:
The federal government has no delegated power to make laws concerning clothing except in those geographical areas under direct federal control. States and localities have power to make such laws within their jurisdictions. By and large such laws reflect local perceptions of decency and civility. During the last 30 or so years the existence of such laws and the application of such laws have significantly loosened. For example, most people no longer formally dress to go to church or to dine out. Society has come to respect (some refer to it as political correctness) those who wish to dress differently. For those who do dress differently they should be realistic in their degree of difference by not anticipating a warm acceptance of some style and this is particularly true when dress reflects sexual mores.

Do you think nancy pelosi really means what she said?:
Well, the problem is -- until these people have actually been charged with and convicted of some crime, she can't just remove them, absent a supermajority vote of the House. Improper conduct for a judge may be nothing more than a violation of a judicial ethical rule, and could be something as simple as allowing the appearance of impropriety. It can happen where the judge has never broken the law or even never actually done anything unethical -- just the appearance is enough to remove the judge sometimes. But just that appearance is not grounds for forcibly removing an elected official from office. They need to actually have done done something illegal, generally at felony level. As far as the guy who had cash in his freezer, that's suspicious but not illegal.

Why are we not using and advertising their usage more?---It really makes you wonder about the cruelty and the overall lack of compassion in our societies judicial system.--"You kill someone in the state of Texas, We'll kill you back" Ron White-- --Food for Thought--

Cmv:theology is not and should not be regarded as an academic subject worthy of government subsidy or respected at universities:
It seems that the fruits of theology are rotten and few; the few theological thinkers that are notable have only produced works of worth under the umbrella of philosophical thought. Theologians are often poor philosophers, like Aquinas. Theology is third rate philosophy, as it is merely philosophy with the initial assumption of a specific conception of God/s and scriptural claims. It is *objectively* less likely to reach true conclusions than philosophy because of this presupposition (according to the principle of parsimony). Cultural studies, history, anthropology, comparative religion, sociohistory, politics and related subjects form the grounds on which religions may be legitimately and fruitfully discussed.

Cmv:there's nothing wrong with being gay and engaging in homosexual acts.:
I am a heterosexual male, and I can find no reason for condemning it as immoral. Though I do believe in God, I do not believe that everything in the bible is true and thus biblical scripture does not convince me. Additionally, if something is wrong their should be observable reasons in reality, so the justification for homosexual acts being wrong should deal strictly with observable reality. The prevailing justification seems to be that homosexual acts are not natural. However, this employs the assumption that what is natural is good. This doesn't seem true to me. Vaccines are not natural, and they are not condemned. Computers are unnatural and yet they are not condemned. The act does not hurt anyone. Provide an argument showing that homosexuality is an inherently immoral act rooted in logic.

Cmv: cosleeping should not be encouraged.:
On /r/parenting, people talk about cosleeping in a positive way. We know cosleeping is dangerous. Babies get rolled on, and babies roll or fall of beds. Having a baby in bed also destroys intimacy in the parents' relationship. It is hard to get a kid to stay out of your bed anyway. If you let them for a long time then stop them, it'll be thay much harder later, further destroying intimacy. Basinets are not a huge inconvenience. Keep it by your bed to make feeding easy. They are small enough that they fit nearly anywhere. There are also basinets that get attached to the bed. Cosleeping should always be discouraged and absolutely never encouraged. CMV.

Cmv: a large age gap does not matter in a relationship. read context!:
My dad is 28 years older than my mom, who he met when she was 17. I have a half-brother older than my mom as well. A friend from my high school and I got into a argument when a 34 year old teacher from our high school was sexting a student (she was sexting back). I failed to see the big deal seeing as there were bigger problems in the world and I grew up with a belief that age did not matter when intimacy was involved. Not only was she pissed off when I expressed this belief but all the other girls in the group text. Why am I wrong?

Cmv: the inventor of fracking, george mitchell, hosted conferences in the 1970s around "limits to growth." our leaders today are much less open minded about possible solutions to global problems.:
I've read the "Limits to Growth" study written in 1972, and subsequent popular books by E.F. Schumacher, Morris Berman, Philip Slater, and others, who were talking about the problems and limits to capitalism and consumer society. I recently learned that the inventor of fracking, George Mitchell, held a series of conferences in Houston, Tex focused on the "Limits to Growth" study. I was shocked that such a rich and powerful person would be fundamentally critical of the very system that gave him so much wealth. I can't imagine oil executives having similar opinions now. Today, I don't hear our leaders in business, media, or heads of corporations discussing any fundamental problems with our system of capitalism. At best, I hear people talking about solving inequality and climate change through innovations in technology and a sound understanding of economics. All of these solutions are well within the framework of globalized capitalism. Our leaders today are much less open-minded about possible solutions to global problems.

Cmv: the standard type of container for sour cream should be a squeezable bottle.:
First off, I understand that sour cream is already available in a squeezable container. My view is that this should be the *standard* type of container. It is usually sold in a cup container with a lid, similar to yogurt. Most of the time sour cream is used, it would be more useful in a squeeze type of container, similar to ketchup or mustard. Yes, *sometimes* it may be more convenient to have a yogurt type of container, making it easy to scoop with a spoon. But a large majority of the time, it is used as a topping, which would be much easier to apply with the squeeze of your palm. CMV.

Cmv: the driving age should be raised to 18.:
I believe that the current driving age, 16, is too low and that teenagers at that age are a danger on the road. Teenagers are notorious for poor decision making and the rise in texting related accidents proves that teens are unable to consistently operate a car safely. I think raising the driving age would make driving safer overall and would also discourage teenagers from participating in illegal activities such as underage drinking and illegal drug use. Cars accidents happen all too often and keeping kids off the road will make things safer for them and for the adults that need to use cars. Change my view.

Cmv: i think as long as you have a well paying job, job satisfaction doesn't matter at all.:
I'm not sure why, but I completely feel that if you made plenty of money doing the shittiest job on earth, you should be content. Example, if I made 100k a year from a job that I am not necessarily content with, I would prefer that over a job where I make 60-70k a year and enjoyed the 8 hour day. I feel this way because in my opinion, if you made good money with a job that (for you) has low job satisfaction, the time you have off will be even better because you have the money to be able to afford and do whatever you wanted, versus being happier with your job but not having the things you want in life. I feel I'm at a serious turning point in my life, and I want to make sure I look at all angles of opportunities presented to me. Please CMV!

Cmv: in blind listening tests, most people would fail differentiate mp3 from the original cd source (even on good equipment).:
Lately I have been wondering about this. Over in /r/ledzeppelin there's been several recent interviews from Jimmy Page, who never turns down a chance to slag mp3's. But I'm willing to bet if you sat him down with proper experimental controls, he'd fail as much as anyone else at hearing any difference, at say 256 kbps bitrate or higher. He's mentioned the new Led Zeppelin deluxe reissues will include download cards for 24/96 versions of all tracks. That being said, I still don't like mp3's, at least for home audio. I'm a bit of a snob about it, probably much like a lot of people. I like my audiophile setup a lot. I tend to covet original gold cd's (Mobil Fidelity Sound Lab etc.) or LP's. But my ears probably can't catch much difference. And certainly I hugely love plugging an iPod full of mp3's into my fancy vehicle audio system.

Cmv: i believe current euro skepticism will lead to the dissolution of the eu and eventually more turmoil in the region.:
Hi everyone, After watching the news recently, it really does seem that the cracks in the EU since the recession are starting to get larger because of foreign policy matters with Russia. Hearing that some member states (UK mainly) are really watching the elections sort of had me thinking if Europe could ever be a unified body. Dissolving of the EU would probably be terrible for the region because of increasingly nationalistic parties making a comeback into the political scene. That nationalism, I believe, will create animosity between countries, which, in a worst case scenario, lead to another war. I really hope I am not being too doom and gloom with this post, but I would really like to hear more about this subject. Please pardon my ignorance if this comes off as so, but I would really like to learn a bit more about what might happen and maybe CMV. Thanks! _____

The drinking age should be 18 stance: disagree:
The drinking age should be 16. There is very strong anecdotal evidence from societies where casual drinking is socially acceptable from an early age. In these countries, such as France, there is a significantly lower rate of drinking-related diseases and deaths. If casual drinking is integrated into a society, it can seriously curb binge drinking when one reaches 18, 19 or 21. Furthermore, these extra years of alcohol sales can increase tax revenue and fund programs that help those afflicted with alcoholism to recover.

Which color exites you more red or yellow? stance: red, the color of burning fire:
Caught this forum early, whoot - another colour forum. Well done to the person that made it! RED. I'm guessing you said excite. I never really used to like this colour, since when I was little it reminded me of the colour of blood/murder - but as I got older, I started to appreciate this colour more. Yellow just reminds me of the sun or something.. which makes me happy. But red comes to me as much more striking to look at and possibly, exciting. It is also the colour for fire trucks and letter boxes and.. and.. red lipstick and.. rosy cheeks.. and.. and -- COOOOOOOOOOKE! :D

Is this an example of a judgmental creator god's free will? stance: yes, mankind is defective, prone to evil because of original sin & satan:
Man always has the freedom to do what he wants to do, but not what he should do. Adam had the choice to do either good or evil. He chose evil. That choice damaged his relationship with God and resulted in an evil world. Now man still has freedom to do what he wants to to do. The problem is that man only wants to rebel and do evil. Look around for proof. But God has a remedy for the evil. It is Jesus Christ. Repent and trust in Him.

This house will alienate santa clause stance: government:
In status quo children are now expriencing the wrong meaning of christmas because a recent survey shows that majority of children see christmas as gift day or the day where you get anything you want from your parents,which should clearly not be the case in status quo the meaning for christmas is suppose to be the birth of Jesus Christ and when Santa Clause is moved into the picture children and even now adults see Santa Clause as the Christmas symbol and it is no longer seen as Jesus. this is like a persons birthday party,everyone gives attention to a different person instead of the birthday boy/girl so it is clearly not right,that is the same thing that is happening in Status Quo

Should performance enhancing drugs be allowed in proffesinal sports? stance: no:
I agree that legalizing performing enhancing drugs is an obsurd thought. One of the reasons performance enhancing drugs are illegal is that they do harm the body. it is in the best interest of the government to protect the players health because they are too young to see the consequences. Besides, these athletes pose as role models too many young kids. Do you want kids walking around pretending to have high pitched voices and pretending they haveboobs? This will encourage the use of steroids for younger kids becuase their favorite athlete is on them. not only will you see a rise in the use of performance enhancing drugs in proffesional players, but in nonproffesional players as well. If performance enhancing drugs were legalized, it would cause all athletes to start using regardless if they want to or not because they will feel that they need to take them just to be able to compete with the other athletes.
