Auto Insurance and health insurance are 2 completely different things.

1. One does not have to drive. If one does not drive, one does not have to buy Auto insurance.

2. Auto insurance is there to protect you from the other guy, or vice versa. Health insurance is there to protect you.

Part of the idea of freedom is that the government doesn't mandate how much one protects one's self.

well....

Increasing taxes for the purpose of having more money to spend is not sound fiscal policy. We have a $13 trillion debt and another $100 trillion in unfunded liabilities..

I don't know how many taxpayers make up that 2% of the wealthiest, but if anyone thinks that they are going to be able to support the 47% that pay no income tax you are sadly mistaken.

If you are alive and breathing you should be responsible for paying atleast 5% of what you make in income tax. The days of sucking up resources and putting nothing in the pot are going to have to end.

Faux news.

I have to wait to have the story confirmed elsewhere before I can trust it is the truth.

Sorry.

Constitution on Slavery "Clearly Sanctioned"

Black African slavery had existed in the North American English colonies for 168 years before the U.S. Constitution was drafted in 1787. It had existed all across colonial America, but by 1804 most Northern states, finding that slavery was not profitable for them, had effectively abolished the institution. In the South, however, especially after the 1793 invention of the cotton gin, the institution grew, becoming an inextricable part of the economy and way of life.

Whether slavery was to be permitted and continued under the new Constitution was a matter of conflict between the North and South, with several Southern states refusing to join the Union if slavery were disallowed. Thus, in spite of a warning from Virginian George Mason that slaves "bring the judgment of Heaven on a country," the continuance of slavery was clearly sanctioned in the U.S. Constitution, although the words slave and slavery are not found anywhere in the document. Section 2 of Article I states that apart from free persons "all other persons," meaning slaves, are each to be counted as three-fifths of a white person for the purpose of apportioning congressional representatives on the basis of population. Section 9 of Article I states that the importation of "such Persons as any of the States now existing shall think proper to admit," meaning slaves, would be permitted until 1808. And Section 2 of Article IV directs that persons "held to Service or Labour in one State, under the Laws thereof, escaping into another," meaning fugitive slaves, were to be returned to their owners.

The Bill of Rights, adopted in 1791, says nothing about slavery. But the Fifth Amendment guaranteed that no person could "be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law." Slaves were property, and slaveholders had an absolute right to take their property with them, even into free states or territories.

Fascinating Fact: The rhetoric in the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence about liberty, freedom, being created equal, and so on, was seldom considered applicable to blacks, slave or free. Seen a subservient race, they were excluded from consideration as members of society and had few rights.

And okay, so tell me how you "suspect" a person of being an illegal alien on sight as the law allows without being prejudice and discriminatory.

Discrimination and prejudice is illegal

Wishful thinking.

Noone on the federal level is going to let a racial profiling law rest on the books. It will be struck down.

No offense here but it makes sense that Arizona is going to suffer repercussions for this misstep. And it is a misstep.

They can be given credit for trying to solve a problem but a smack in the head for making a bad choice.

As for mo, none of your post makes sense.

Noone is saying Arizona has any affect on the rest of the country. Obama wasn't in office three years ago.


The article states that preliminary assessment seems to be showing that 1070 is impacting Arizona's economy negatively.
