Harrow: When our economy ultimately goes bust, will you be happy just to work in one of Obama's forced labor gulags?
Taken from an Obama speech:
Today, AmeriCorps - our nation's network of local, state and national service programs - has 75,000 slots. I know firsthand the quality of these programs. My wife Michelle once left her job at a law firm to be the founding director of an AmeriCorps program in Chicago that trains young people for careers in public service. These programs invest Americans in their communities and their country. They tap America's greatest resource - our citizens.
As President, I will expand AmeriCorps to 250,000 slots, and make that increased service a vehicle to meet national goals like providing health care and education, saving our planet and restoring our standing... 20 Nov 08, 10:11:04

Harrow: Does the American public believe that there will be a military victory in Afghanistan?
I don't think so.
I don't think we will defeat the Taliban in the long term. Kandahar is run by the Taliban, day and night, its almost impossible for westerners to walk around there. Kabul is under siege from the north west and south at night. Afghanistan is a land that just can't be conquered. Logistically its very difficult. It takes up too many resources. The Greeks, the Persians, the British, the Russians all failed. Why does this coalition think it will succeed.
Here is my solution. Cut off the life line of the Taliban, legalize the poppy crop. This is the only thing Afghanistan really produces. Legalize it and give contracts to local companies to make it into morph... 20 Nov 08, 04:11:52
Harrow: I just moved to Florida and cannot find employment. Besides unemployment can I receive any other help?
I have been looking for a job for months now. I did get a job with a local computer company but they just laid me off because it has been so slow economically for them. The complete employment only lasted about a month. This month did not allow me to become eligible for unemployment benefits. Now I do not really know what to do because I have a wife to care for. Is there any other government assistance?... 20 Nov 08, 03:11:45
Harrow: Why is the Federal Immigration and Nationality Act not being enforced?
The law clearly states that people who help, employ etc... illegals are breaking the law and it clearly states that property and cars can be confiscated. Why is our government not doing it's job and arresting people who help these illegals?
Federal Immigration and Nationality Act
Section 8 USC 1324(a)(1)(A)(iv)(b)(iii)
Any person who . . . encourages or induces an alien to . . . reside . . . knowing or in reckless disregard of the fact that such . . . residence is . . . in violation of law, shall be punished as provided . . . for each alien in respect to whom such a violation occurs . . . fined under title 18 . . . imprisoned not more than 5 years, or both.

Harrow: Do we really live in a democracy in the UK?
I am a little puzzled and maybe someone can define exactly what we have here.
I thought that democracy means; 'rule by the people'.
It is commonly accepted as the fairest type of government because it means that everybody is equal. Nobody is better than anybody else and everyone has the same power.
So most democracies have a system of 'representation'. We choose, by election, someone to represent us, talk for us and fight for us in parliament. That person is a Member of Parliament in central government and a councillor in local government. Their job is to speak on our behalf and represent our interests.
If this is the case then why is the Police here stating that ... 20 Nov 08, 10:11:45
Harrow: pls summarize Solitude and the Fortresses of Youth?
Solitude and the Fortresses of Youth
By MICHAEL CHABON
Earlier this month my local paper, The San Francisco Chronicle, reported that a college student had been expelled from art school here for submitting a story ''rife with gruesome details about sexual torture, dismemberment and bloodlust'' to his creative writing class. The instructor, a poet named Jan Richman, subsequently found herself out of a job. The university chose not to explain its failure to renew Ms. Richman's contract, but she intimated that she was being punished for having set the tone for the class by assigning a well-regarded if disturbing short story by the MacArthur-winning novelist David Fo... 20 Nov 08, 07:11:11
Harrow: Are employers required by law to offer benefits? ?
Are employers required by law to offer benefits?
I'm doing a report for accounting and I have to write about these in my report but are there any by law that are required.
I looked it up and got this?
Are any of these right?
Seven things employers are required to offer (this applies to US employers only):
1. Employers must pay the minimum wage, as set by the federal government or a local government. Wages for piecework are allowed in some industries.
2. Employers must pay for break time if it is less than thirty minutes.
3. Employers must pay into social security.
4. Employers must pay time and half to hourly employees who work more than 40 hours in a week.
5. Empl... 19 Nov 08, 10:11:04

Harrow: Local vs foreigner for same job in today employment market.?
The Singapore economy is now confirmed to be in a recession. DBS an iron rice bowl employer had retrenched 900 employees, many in senior positions including managing directors who have service the company for one to two decades.
Likewise we also read in papers that the headhunters are now swamped with resumes from retrenched bankers in US and Europer keen to escape the collapsing economy for a safer heaven in Asia.
The big question is our local employees are already having a difficult time seeking for another job after retrenchment. If the local is equally qualified to do the job for the same or lower pay, why is the foreigners allow into our weak job market to competite with Singapore... 19 Nov 08, 06:11:01
