@bigpawbullets Your investment portfolio has gone down or your advisors are miracle workers so you have been hurt to some degree. You do not need to borrow money to have an interest rate affect you because it will cost every business more to do business and that cost will be passed on to you in food clothing entertainment and anything else that requires money. As for trump the damage he is doing to the environment, social fabric and our standing in the world is nothing short of criminal.Obama was an amazing president regarding the letter the republicans signed on the day he was made president not to pass any legislation he proposed simply because he was black. They are still racist vulgar people who do not respect the fact that all people are created equal. Deny this and just look at how they are being treated by whites in this country and the latino's. Germans,Polish French etc are all welcomed but not any from Africa and under trump's immigration policy we are loosing doctors,scientists, computer specialists that we neede. His policies against science supported by the evanglicals have cost us the lead to China in stem cells ,solar cells and new computer technology.I was a finacial planner for 25 years and everything ---everything breaks down to money and if you do not believe that you are being very nieve.

It isn 't easy when you see your retirement savings depleted by stock market downturns that always come with republican reign. Tax cuts that do not materialize andhidden tax increases like removing medical deductions from taxes. In addition we now have no protection against the banks doing what they did in 2008 or the stock markets. Tariffs will raise expenses first food because of the farmers losses under trumpie and next the auto workers with the increase in steel. Then we the fiscal conservatives increased the national debt by 21/2 trillion dollars. This will go down as the biggest blight on the US populatyion since the depression if he does not bring one on in addition.

@bigpawbullets Thern you do not know how to evaluate your benefits. The protection you had from banks subverting your funds no longer exisit and the same goes for the stock market. You may have gotten a tax break but unless you are a muti millionaire you will pay more for all types of goods due to tariffs , increased national debt which will increase cost to borrow and hidden taxes like a sales tax FED and higher gas fed tax. A single payor health insurance plan would provide better health at lower cost do not agree v well All the nordic countries with smaller populations and lower tax BASE provide free health,college, and pensions with 8 weeks of vacation and money for their populations to be world travelers.Trump has insulted our trading partners and allies made us the laugfhing stock of the world and has done nothing except lined his pockets by being pres. His NK meeting was a farce he gave up everything and got nothing as they are building new facilities. Just wait until he needs an ally they will laugh in his face. As usual the republicans have driven down the stock market that has wiped out many times more of my pension savings than I will ever recover in tax savings look at your own. You must be living one of his lies if you think you are better off.

I think it is wrong to exclude rape and medical problems from abortion . Accidents happen and if a family cannot support or if medical problems exist they should have the ability to abort. Religion has no place in politics and that is why we have a Constitution that separates church and state. This is not being followed by the republicans. Oh yes the evangelicals also oppose contraception of any kind and support large families. It is ashame that the republicans aftyer protecting birth then forget about those briught into the world. They cut food to children,housing and medical. They are great supporters wouldn't you say.

If they will not take the oath they should not be admited as they do not believe in the basics of this country. For those who convert to muslim religion the same applies.

RobLawrence comments on Jun 19, 2018:
Isn't it fascinating (and infuriating) how the bible is cherry picked to excuse the inexcusable? Herein lies one of the biggest dangers of religion: Using the writings of foolish men from ancient times to manipulate those who don't know how or are too cowardly to think for themselves.

Yes. It is something that I also recently noticed about myself. I can do it all day in my job but not so much in my personal life. I am beginning to think that I am more shallow that I had thought.....:S :(
Marine replies on Jun 17, 2018:
I find that most people do not share my interests and that makes it difficult to speak to them unless I engage in talk about them. This results in my asking many questions about their lives and they find out nothing about me. The latter makes me appear cold to them.

Dick_Martin comments on Feb 23, 2018:
Accurate fire is a myth. Even in war time with experienced soldiers it's never one bullet = one kill. People shoot blindly, shoot at noises, and shoot randomly.. In my experience, if every adult at Parkland had been armed the death toll would have been more than 50. Probably closer to 100.

This is the reason for automatic firing guns. They each have a machine gun now.This is great for jungle warfare and city fighting.

Marine replies on Jun 17, 2018:
@jayneonacobb Handling guns responsibly is just the beginning. What about a strong student taking a gun away from a teacher? Childrens minds are not fully developed and their ability to shoot first and bear the results later are better than and adult shooting.

Donotbelieve comments on Feb 23, 2018:
I am not sure. My knee jerk reaction is, no. I was raised with gun safety and taken to the firing range. I know how to handle a gun and have good aim. I still feel very uneasy about arming myself, with children around. My maternal instincts wold definitely protect, but they are at ...
Marine replies on Jun 17, 2018:
See my above posts it takes a mental ability to shoot another human and that cannot be obtained with just learning how to use a gun.

I don't teach often, but I'm always armed. There are very few places that I can not carry a weapon. I do not go to those places. As far as teachers carrying guns is concerned... I do not think that mandatory arming of teachers is a good idea or right. If a teacher wants to carry a weapon they ...
Marine replies on Jun 17, 2018:
Not enough I have seen people who carried a weapon all their life freeze when it came to shoot.. It takes mental training and a willingness to acept the results which could be criminal charges. This is what makes me laugh about the people who go armed to the mall and think now they are safe. There is a great deal that goes into a shooting and long court cases can be one of them.
