Tuesday: it's not a PBS show,not sure what channel carries it in the USA, it's the funniest show Canada has produced since Kids in the hall and SCTV.......................I just noticed Direct tv in the states has begun airing it
Tuesday: 30 Rock is good,but I never keep track of when certain programs are on,except sports.I think all the white noise of nightly watching 4 hours of politicians jabbering at eachother finally caught up with me after 8 years.I've always been interested in Lincoln,I thoroughly enjoyed the PBS presentatio called "Finding Lincoln" last week, Charlie Rose also presents a calm mature discussion
Czuch: Partially, some of his foreign policies were making waves, and on the otherside the price of oil went through the roof and oil companies saw that as an excuse to rip off people and make huge profits... Also the energy companies saw the same excuse.
题目: Re: Well what the Huck are two people who can only obtain minimum wage jobs doing having kids in the first place
Czuch: Um no, your gun policy is a state thing, otherwise how can a bank get away with giving out free rifles for opening an account!!
No... I have realism. I've seen how loopholes can be used and how serial killers and child abusers (from watching stuff that probes such people) on how a face can be put on. I've also seen people who've past their driving test drink drive, or drive so dangerously that they kill or maim others.
A driving test pass means you can drive, it's no guarantee you'll be a good driver though.

rod03801: Sorry, but with the way certain services designed to stop bad bad parents have .. um.. mucked up, such a system just could not work. There is no way you can be sure of what the future may bring to the chosen ones, how an incident may cause one to go bananas.
And how are you going to persuade millions of people to under go temporary 'sterilisation', plus the factor that you are limiting the gene pool is dangerous. Plus the revolts would cause civil war in America, even within republican groups due to certain bits of the Bible celebrating what marriage is about.
....... More money to child protection services and better training would be better. Better education at school over birth control and STI's, free condoms to teenagers, plus other plans to show the FACTS about unprotected sex in adverts would be better.
The Chinese have a system based on fines for families that have over 2 (I think) children. But that is over population control, to stop the Chinese people out growing their country.
Czuch: It's not just Bush, it was the government he had as well. Theydidn't think before they acted. As they say "A good warrior wins first then goes to battle, while a bad one goes to battle and hopes to win."
OPEC was a factor out of Carter's control, just like everyone else found. They were a uncontrollable factor that through only talk could the situation be resolved.... Just like with every other country affected by the oil crises. It was a global event!!

rod03801: Whats wrong with a license to have a baby? At least a course, and a test, something to make them think a bit first, it might not be perfect, but I bet it would help prevent some from having one that they cant take care or adequately?
题目: Re: Well what the Huck are two people who can only obtain minimum wage jobs doing having kids in the first place
(V): You say: Are you saying that only the rich should have babies? Are you proposing a somewhat big brother approach to having families where only approved parents can have children and any poor people who have babies are to be prosecuted and jailed?
People have to have a license to Fish or Hunt in the USA. (Not sure if it is that way over there) Yet anyone can have a baby! I DO think that people should have to prove they can bring up a child properly before having one! Of course, that is absolutely impossible. And who would be the person who makes this decision? And my solution to not allowing babies until after this proof, would be controversial as well. lol. Some sort of mandatory birth control until you DO get a license to have a child. Before you blast me for that, I know that would be a very bad solution. It has it's merits though.
Charles Martel: hahahaha... what about that Tuesday???? All the dems are just so smart and sensitive and they do nothing wrong... hahahah Kennedy is but one on a long list of dumb ass democrats
Mr Kennedy, how did you manage to navigate your PT boat in front of a Japanese destroyer causing the destruction of your ship and death of your crew, even though your boat is twice as fast??? Were you below deck with some native girls???
Czuch: Gas wasn't Carters fault. It was OPEC that created that problem, we got hit the same time, so did everyone else. 4 day working weeks we had here, sometimes 3 to save energy.

Tuesday: it's entertainment, not something to educate...
Same for Gores an inconvenient truth???? That won all kinds of movie awards... glad you think its all just entertainment, and not education.... but why did they make all the school kids watch for then???
题目: Re: Well what the Huck are two people who can only obtain minimum wage jobs doing having kids in the first place
Czuch: Exactly... sit back and see if he's got it right. If he doesn't... then he won't get re-elected. If he really mucks up. He'll be impeached or resign.
