    Donald Trump Releases Plan to Make Mexico Pay for Border Wall

    "Show me your papers." Isn't this what the nazis used to say to suspected Jews? As I said in the duplicate thread, Trump's plan requires racism at its best. How do you determine who needs to show their papers? By their skin color? The way their name sounds? Are we seeing a parallel of 1930's...

    Donald Trump Releases Plan to Make Mexico Pay for Border Wall

    Increase border patrols, instead of telling them to let illegals go. Penalize individuals and businesses that employ illegals. If an illegal has managed to be here for a year without legal incident, give them a temporary visa and put them in the system for citizenship. I need to look up the...

    Report: Minimum wage hike would cut food stamp spending by $4.6 billion a year

    In order for this to actually work, the people "at the top" must be willing to take less pay. The manufacturers must freeze manufacturing costs. Distributors must freeze distribution costs. Producers must freeze production costs. This whole thing is based on an ideal that is not supported by a...

    Raising the Minimum wage a good idea?

    The problem, CTB, is your over-generalization. That's the biggest problem with this "social equality" mantra that's been going on for a few years now. You start a business; you work 16-hour days, and expand your business. You open a second store; then a third; then more. You deal with the...

    How Trump Will Make Mexico Pay for the Wall

    ITL points out the second biggest problem with this: government interference of individual business. Last time I checked, Western Union was a private, not government, company. Don't we already have problems with the government telling companies how to run their businesses and who they can do...

    Walmart Workers Cost Taxpayers $6.2 Billion In Public Assistance

    So if we give them a higher wage -- won't they be paying more taxes, more social security, more medicare and other benefits? How does that figure into the formula?

    Raising the Minimum wage a good idea?

    Economics and human nature cancel out your idealism. Take a city with a military base. Rental units close to base are higher than similar units further away. Whenever Basic Allowance for Housing (BAH) is increased, rent charges increase. The rent charges may be attributed to increased costs...

    Out of curiosity - how much is taken out of those workers paychecks for taxes, social security, medicare, etc.?

    Will the MEDIA or Trump bring down Trump?!

    He's able to have an advisor sitting with him whispering in his ear, helping him with answers. Can't do that on TV.

    Is Trump trying to sabotage his own campaign

    Is Trump "trying"? No. He seems to have problems with expecting policy-type questions; he fumbles with an answer; gets briefed by his team on how he should have answered; and the follow-on interviews reflect that he's gone back and done his homework ... albeit, after-the-fact. It would be...

    Will the MEDIA or Trump bring down Trump?!

    Actually, I think Trump says something; the media reports it as widely and as loudly as they can. In that regard, the question isn't "or", but Trump and the media.

    Legal or Not! Will God punish those who have abortions?

    Which part of what he wrote is falsehood?

    Legal or Not! Will God punish those who have abortions?

    Thanks for the clarification. There are believers who had an abortion (or more than one) before they were saved. Your answer clarifies your position.

    Legal or Not! Will God punish those who have abortions?

    Not intentionally. Merely answering the question as posed.

    Legal or Not! Will God punish those who have abortions?

    Won't we all have blood on our hands when we stand before God? Isn't the real question, which of us--including those who have had abortions, advocate for them, and perform them--will have that blood covered by Jesus? Or are you trying to say that abortion is an unpardonable sin?

    Political Correctness????

    Not meaning to speak for IT; if you were asking me, I'd tell you "bias." Once the counselor and/or university people know which kid is mine, there's going to be a level of bias (as in, "that's the kid of the guy who sent us an email questioning our stuff"). Hopefully, they'd be professional...
