  18. WYLTK13420 I would take up punching nazis before I stop smoking. The doctors the police and the government know and they arent bashing my door down. Hell all the neighbors know and they arent complaining all my family know they arent complaining. In fact it saves me taking ritalin anti-inflammatory meds and helps with my nerve damage. Some people break their neck (me) and suffer chronic nerve pain. You cant just take fist fulls of pills and still function. Taking all the pills will mean you need to take other pills like antidepressants and kidney and liver meds from too many pills. 3 grams or so a day and all those pills are gone. Those pills cost about the same amont before subsidy for legal pills. If where I am it was legal pot it would be about a third the initial price but cant see the government subsidizing it. So my $5 prescriptions were much cheaper than approximately $50 a day for cannabis. But cost the government a few hundred a month when I was taking all their pills. Heck I dont even need an asthma inhaler when I smoke pot. A week without it and Im using it every day. So end of the day if I was to stop I would need 5 or six prescriptions to keep me going without collapsing in pain or my arms or legs shooting out. In fact I tried to have a couple days off to save some money and it was a dumb idea. Went to sip a hot coffee and my nerve went mental threw a hot coffee all over me my tv and ps4. Went to step over a pair of shoes next thing im on the ground hit my head. Person thought i had epilepsy seeing me twitch and spaz. That hasnt happened for over a year before that. But hey its just some drug we use for fun right? We could just take fist fulls of pills and not be able to drive work or socialize. Or do what we do and be a functioning induvidual.

  46. So you are freaking out over what? Did you guys forget where the news you report comes from? Actual journalists go out and find a story. They dont just sit in front of a camera and make it all about them and their opinion. They investigate. You know what. Someone actually did their job and didnt regurgitate salacious lies. So it looks like they came across an actual journalist. You lot litterally do only hatchet jobs. You take other peoples work and offer commentary on it even contradicting yourself in a short video and contradicting your own personal opinions you have previously expressed. How can you be for exposing liars and corruption but also for shutting people down when they investigate. One failure and now you think they are scam news? How do people expose inhuman practices in farming and immigration centres if they dont do this sort of thing? How do you prove an official is corrupt? How do you prove voter fraud exists? Do you ring them ask them to come in for an interview, give them a set of pre-prepared questions and sit down with a camera person? No wonder people have to make up news and report on gossip and opinions. They forgot how to investigate a story follow leads and expose the things that people really should know. Its actually quite sad. We live in a sugar coated falsified reality due to people preferring to think everything is wonderful and the person exposing that its not is the bad guy. So shoot the messenger burn the message and complain about people like that bursting your bubble shattering your rose tinted glasses.

  159. Rattlewings With the money you make changing these rich idiots nappies. Or just dont buy any of their junk for a few months and the shares will be bottom dollar. We buy them all and put in a new health clause on tax. Where if you dont do physical labour for more than 20 hours a week you pay an extra $100,000 a year for not adding to society and trying to take away from it. Its a joke that someone who never lifted a shovel has made billions off construction and someone who has no engineering backround makes billions off of cars. Its crazy if you didnt build the stuff how the hell are you making money unless its a fraud or scam? Oh someone gave you money to enslave a bunch of people that makes sense. If they kill you and your creed no one will care. Stop new age slavery and stop lining scumbags pockets. First step is stop paying hollywood and the music industry. Second is stop paying the petroleum industry. Third is stop paying the fake farms for their fake Monsanto poison foods and their mutant geoengineering abominations. Fourth is every single person has to stop payung their student loans. Coming in fifth if they still have any money left is stop paying water power housing rates. Then sixth is dont pay any mortgages even if you have to scuttle your property (but dont leave it inhabitable). Seventh is declare a disaster and national emergency then revert back to states having individual rights and have an election. Then put rules in place that stop people pretending they are for capitalism when its just slavery. That goes for worldwide too. If you build a flash car you have to be paid enough to drive a flash car or at least given one! Same with a home if they expect you to build homes they have to pay you enough to buy a home. Also if you want to hire a graduate or university/college trained person, then you can pay for it. If it costs 20k to study then whom ever hires you had to pay for that privilege. Even if its a MCDs. Then we have people not hiring scientists to cook our burgers while teens are stealing a our cars. We wont have building firms wanting fully trained people to get minimum wage or hiring foreigners. They want a builder then pay the school that teaches builders to build for a builder! Fucksake its so simple. Capitalism doesnt work if these people reinvestment is through loans and inflation. It needs to go back to how it was. If you business is detrimental to the welfare of the populace it is either taken off you or disbanded. How is a bank free to do what ever but so muslim group isnt? Its ok for financial terrorism but not ok to fund it? Seems strange? People forget there were are and always will be laws on contracts and money lending that predate the constitution. The constitution doesnt count for anything without accepting the previous contract and monetary laws. Like loans have to be forgotten every 7 years and interest cant be charged on interest. That the person loaning the money has to possess said money and surrender that money in cash or physical goods for inspection on commencement of the contract or if not dated or stated when it is signed. That you cant loan in bad faith. ie when you borrow from a bank and they call it a mortgage. That is in bad faith. They expect you to die before you pay them off. That you cant change the terms of a contract if you hold a position of power and any 3rd party would see the lesser power has to sign under duress. That anything one person does signs for etc is that one persons responsibility and no 3rd party may be affected. Like the scam where money lenders get paid first before employees and unsecured creditors (people who paid and have yet to recieve) when a business goes under. Yet some how some can afford a liquidator? Go figure. Doesnt make sense that if I pay you for something you have in your possession that a bad business decisions means and insured secured creditor gets that money and if they dont have enough insurance pays the rest and I get a big fat ZERO. The people whom made and condone these rule need a bullet and a cremation and to never be spoken of again.

  173. Is this another "fake" Nadia? ISIS kills everyone they say then there are the thousands of people telling their sob stories. ISIS does what they are told. If told they need a village cleared ISIS goes and clears it for weapon vehicles and shit in return. The US and UK along with French and German intelligence are using NATO to destroy and destabilize the middle east. It is all written down from the 80s. ISIS is the "allied nations" best weapon against Assad. They may bomb them out now and then but those are just locals who joined the cause instead of being displaced. Those locals know too much or too little so they use them as the scape goat. They cant kill the leaders or how will they give them orders? The US isnt at war they are funding a civil war again but underestimated the power and grit of the Syrian army. They tried expand into more of Africa and got hammered. If ISIS was for real they wouldnt be busy trying to legitimize their behavior. That is a white man concept. Their way of life out there is kill or be killed. So no wonder people join ISIS they are the only ones who are working with the western world and most so called terrorists are fighting for the people. Not for the US backed ISIS. They are sick of ISIS and the US destroying their homeland with kilotonnes of explosives so use a under a kilo in response. The US involvement in Syria is war crime. The US accusing anyone of terror for retaliation should check the rules of war. They are at war and anyone arrested for fighting back arent a terrorist they are a POW a prisoner of war. They have more rights than a criminal and when the war ends should be sent back to the country they fought for. Terrorism only works civily. You cant fight political ideology with terrorism unless it is on your home soil. Otherwise it is just an attack assault or fighting in general. The US has butchered the english language so badly now that it is causing cognitive dissonance. People believe dropping bombs and killing people isnt an act of war? Have they heard what Assad said? Not welcome. Invaded. Killing Syrian people when not at war with US. All your tax dollars are hard at work committing war crimes everyday. How is it not terrorism to financially aid the US in their war crimes and mass genocide of noncombatants. How is it not terrorism to threaten anyone with jail violence harrasment for supporting ISIS when we know they are a US UK Israel asset? 1984 looks like a lovely future compared to the US destroying the world for profit and power. The states wont be united for much longer just you wait. Any state wanting to go to war will suffer secondment. Ones who dont will be dropped from United states to independent commonwealths. ISIS is going to lose and the Syrian government is going to expose you all for your war crimes. I repeat US law "financially aids terrorism" is what tax is in the US. So anyone who is paying tax had financially aided terrorism and add to that war crimes. The Nazis lost the whole of Germany. The US will the whole of America.

  284. That guy missed the point. The problem is the age and time factor not the sick and healthy. Someone who pays an income percentage based health cover pays more for earning more. Someone young who starts paying now would have to pay more and more every year as inflation and population growth continues. But an older person already earning their peak wage will pay the same amount and retire in a few years and be covered through their retirement plan. So before people even have to use it, it gets ripped up. They paid in for something that now doesnt exist. So when you see that why would you want to opt in to a system when there are competitive private providers? What makes sense is to slip a small tax on everything to cover everyone. So no ones incomes but many everyday products which may or may not be a cause of health issue. So things like corporate taxes for companies as they employ people who will one day get sick and could be injured at work or home. Then they would know their employees would be covered either for injury, lost income or both. Also on fuels. Sure people hate that but if its less than a cent in the dollar you wouldnt really care. All licenses registrations and certs to have a health cover component. A tax on natural resources that goes straight back into health tax. Cars imported especially a tax on new cars not huge but a percent. Then as most countries have an extra tax on pump gas cigarettes and alcohol also now cannabis. Cannibis will create a shortfall in the pharma industry so will need to be taxed to pay for medication cost increases due to less demand. If you try to create universal healthcare cover you need to cover all bases. It would take years to explain how to start with the sick would get a free ride as they wouldnt be able to pay in. But then there will be new ways found to pay for the health cover as I said above. They would have to pay a tax somewhere which would go towards the cover they receive. Just like people not receiving the cover who pay the tax. So yes they pay too and no one gets a free ride. Well actually most places who have universal health cover have free hospital and accident cover for foreigners. Public though not private and waiting lists get long so it would be only a fix nothing cosmetic or the like as far as I know. But yeah easy to create free healthcare harder to maintain with immigration and an aging population.

  285. People farming. Needed to be hidden better so they say don't do that they will catch on to us. Money should never be a punishment as taking peoples ability to provide and to live family or no is plain evil and criminal. Never should the dollar be used to punish after the fact. So rich can do what ever they want, poor just has to either commit a crime take out a loan evade or do time and still pay the fine somehow? Sounds like some law makers are making laws to keep the poor poor and the rich rich and dominating everything. It has to stop. Taxes are for police fines should go towards roads and infrastructure, then see the motive to punish the poor go out the window. Can't have the poor being able to say they paid for everything. Over here in New Zealand they balance the books with an unlawful tax on cigarettes. It goes up every six months with no real reason other than an unlawful punishment for not agreeing with their idea of don't smoke. So now smokers have funded more initiatives than any other demographic and they still have the cheek to talk down to a smoker whilst eating their fast food and fizzy drinks on their computer before they go out later and drink themselves half to death. News is in guys they are all just as unhealthy if not worse long term than smoking. Sure smoking is not a healthy thing but more money is spent on treating childrens sporting injuries every year than smoking related illness. But they pay zero tax smoker is paying some insane tax with a tax on a tax on a tax so it is about 70% tax (I guess) and they hide the price until you say which pack you want. In no book you could ever read about this. It is absolutely insane as it is taking the money from the people whom have not a lot and using it for different purposes than proposed when they levied the tax in the first place. Funny how the ones who decide these rules don't get affected and then their jobs become easier as they have more money to throw at people so people will keep them in power. EVIL EVIL EVIL, must be dealt with sooner than later and all funds returned or allocated to an appropriate agency to redisperse taxes should never be used to enforce your will. That is just corporate terrorism, and you can define as such cause now all you have to do is threaten someone for their way of life and expect them to change or suffer under you, so yes terrorism. They really need to learn to make rules which won't make them criminals. Or such rules are unjust and should never be followed and the ones whom write them should be deposed.

  393. Have to laugh out loud when people say people urinating in public are sex offenders. Pissing your pants is the fetish thing not naturally dispelling urine. If people are truely labelled sex offenders for urination then everyone are sex offenders. Whether they are 3 months old or 99 years old. That being said anyone not on the sex offenders list is a liar. You telling me you only got toilet inside a toilet inside your house? Going to the toilet at work school library etc would be a public place. Legalese language is not up for interpretation. Sexual assault rape and unwanted sexual attention are all different. One is where you force sex upon someone, one is when you grope or touch someone with the intent of self gratification and one can be a mistake at reading signals of the victim. All are very different. Also if it was 2 guys asleep waking to being stroked and they complained we would never hear about it. If the women in question were ok with it at the time then they cant go complain later. Dont see my ex going to jail for waking me up with sexual attention which at the time was unwanted and just for her gratification. I can see if I had have done the same she could be accusing me of being a rapist. So until all are equal before the law and the general public understand legalese the law means jack shit and is unenforceable. If you dont understand the law how can you feel safe? If you dont understand the law how can you report a crime? If you dont understand the law how can you obey it?

  420. Missed the point. Climate change was known of since before I was born. BUT it is not how you say "the earth will burn" haha sure buddy. We can't physically change the earth's temperature the sun and the earth's angle control that. The science is all flawed as one science says yes it is warmer, since the ice age, after a cataclysm and the new science says if you pay lots of money it will go away. But hey science must be wrong? Also 97% of scientists don't want some half wit bagging them so say yes climate change exists but you have no idea what it is. Maybe after 2000 years of proof of change rather than 2000 years of a rather stable climate, then try tax us for the privilege of being born on this planet of bludgers. If it really mattered people wouldn't be talking so much shit. Maybe too much fluoride or sucrose? Either way that was one of the worst vids I have seen from you guys. Sorry to say but political standing means nothing. Scientists taking money to say what you want happens more than an actual scientist wanting to study the field for their own research. So if you get paid to look for blue you tell them you found blue and say nothing about the rest of the rainbow of colours. Until people start dying from heat world wide this science as of late is based on lies. The ice caps didn't melt the sea levels didn't rise we didn't all burn alive. Also the moon moving would cause more global warming than we could if we all started a scrub fire every day for the rest of our lives.

  445. Business as usual. Business has to pay employees. They are out of a job now not recieving income. Why would an employee go back to work for free due to a business owing a creditor? Depends what bankruptcy you looking at. Businesses go under everyday and they dont try make employees pay back the creditors. Personal bankruptcy means you still have an income but cant pay your debts. Normally results in a capped income depending where in the world you are, assets get stripped etc to pay debts. BUT if you are running a business on business loans that is the risk creditors take or there would be no point. It is gambling loaning money to a business venture. You cant always win and if you lose you cant say you want all the other players to bail you out when they are not making any money. Some people are not even people and just have people status due to a silly law personifying corporations and companies. So the company who loaned the money is one dumb person if they thought loaning money to gangsta rappers who are actually a company named 50 cent the company Not the man Curtis. If he is an employee of the company whether it be CEO or labourer he is able to sign on the company's behalf and act in the best interests of. BUT he does not personally have any reason to pay the loan the comoany does. If the company goes under he loses his job and income. With out an income and no control over the company as it has been delisted due to bankruptcy he has no link with the creditors. He is free to say no that is slavery as anyone insisting another be in their employ with out redress of income or worth IS slavery.
