How do you feel about people on government assistence?
by free2beme infor a long time, before working with people in this situation, i would have answered this question with .... "i feel for them and i know how degrading it must be, to come to this point in their life to have to depend on the government to sustain them" .
... once i got up close and personal with these people, i have learned that my answer only applies to a small group of those on government assistance.
well from my experience, those on government assistance are more often about taking advantage of the system, then they are about actually being in need of help.

national minumum wage is EUR 8
Interesting. That converts to $9.69 US.
By comparison, the federal (individual states may be higher) minimum wage in the US is $5.15

I would like to mention, that some do need it and use it to move to a level where they no longer need it. That is not the majority, by any means or warped way of looking at it
Yes, the system is broken. Largely because of attitudes like yours.
Why are people in this ridiculously wealthy nation, so obsessed with someone getting a "free ride"?
Is a life on welfare really something to envy?
Other countries accept the fact that there will always be those that take advantage of the system.
But, rather than dwelling on those people, they try to focus their energies on those that really do need help.
Oh, and I'm sure JK Rowling has paid back thousands of times over(in taxes) any assistance she received. Gimme a break.

My letter of annulment. LOL I am going to tell everyone it worked.
by jwfacts ini have posted below my letter of annulment for anyone that wants to use it.
they said that they would not honour it because i was baptised for too long and had entered pioneering and bethel.
however, i know of several people where annulment did work, but generally if they were baptised for only a couple of years and had not accepted 'privileges".

How would they make money from a free podcast?
If they were available, how many people would skip the entire assembly?

Gangas & NWT
by voltaire ini heard an interesting program the other night that reminded me of the debates/questions that arise about the tanslation of the nwt.
it has been asserted that since george gangas was a speaker of modern greek he was not qualified to translate biblical greek.
the progam i heard is hosted by milt rosenberg on wgn 720 and the guests were two linguists from illinois universities ( i can't recall their names).

A: A slut sleeps with everyone, a bitch sleeps with everyone but you!
