Lou S asked:


Hello. In a section of my assignment I am required to explain the role of the government (United Kingdom, not USA) in the management of Rabies and Foot and Mouth disease. Could anyone give me any sources or help with any explanations? Your answers are very much appreciated.

PIX-ED asked:


I detest the arrogant, elitist attitude shown by the financial firms receiving government bail out funds.
However, it seems like a slippery slope to follow allowing the government to retroactively pass a punitive tax on anyone that they happen to disagree with.
There must be other legal means to recover the money.
How about just deducting it from future funds with interest?

abby asked:


Question for english paper….
Which Amendments to the Constitution protect the rights of the individual in society against unjust actions? How can the government, when threatened either internally or externally, legally deny the individual of these rights? What gives the government the power to do this?

I prepare taxes for a p/t job and I just wanted to know if anyone has an opinion on why people try to scam the government for more $. They will ALMOST ALWAYS find out about it eventually and then the taxpayer can get into a ton of trouble. We have even had people come into our office, we have told them that they can not do what they are trying to do but then they go somewhere else and do it anyway. It boggles my mind.

Ardessa S asked:


I want to know the main differences between government and politics.

hades asked:


It seems the only issue the current administartion is concerned about is fighting terrorism and ‘protecting’ us from said terrorists. But in the meantime most US citizens have lost all faith in the government and assume the government will not help them.
When politics is corrupt at it’s very core, does electing new officals even matter? Does the government only respond to hostel acts towards them?

vietnamhelicopterpilot asked:


I’ve read stories of vets coming home from Iraq and ending up on the street. This seems to be true for Vietnam vets and those in World War II. It seems the government would at least help these people get into some kind of low income housing or rehabilitation and schooling. Where is the government when a vet needs help?

Time to Shrug, Atlas asked:


We read every day about more layoffs and a worsening economic outlook.

Why can’t the government use their power to transcend economic realities again, and limit the number of unemployed. Heck, it worked with minimum wage, right?

Maybe we can ask for advice from France. Its almost impossible to fire somebody there. Surely they are living in an economic utopia, right?
jehen: Did I say anything about it being a proposed remedy?

Pay attention, and try to keep up.
jehen: Just because it isn’t publicly in the works today doesn’t mean that it is in somebody’s pipeline.

And the purpose of “trolling” for those who would erroneously agree with this proposal is to, as you said, get a feel for the potential sentiment for such a proposal.

Laws “protecting” employees are common in many European countries, and from what I can tell much of our populace are intent on copying everything the Europeans do.

Sergeant Vince Carter, USMC asked:


As wasteful as government is, the people in the GAO actually seem to have some stones and frequently call BS on lots and lots of government pork. How long before they call the pork package a loser? I say within six months of the beginning of porking out, oops I mean stimulating. Perhaps the bigger question is whether anyone at the GAO is putting his/her life in danger for speaking out on the pork package on behalf of the productive people who are getting ripped off.
