20/20 "You can't even talk about it."
Part 1 of several, the rest can be found on youtube with the same topic.

I found it very interesting and agree for the most part with John Stossel on his assessments of these various topics.
Edit: Topics include.
1. Eating Tigers to increase their numbers.
2. Pregnancy being a reason to fire a woman
3. Senior Citizens costing us more than 30 iraq wars
4. Extreme sports dumbasses being charged for their rescue
5. Legalizing steroids.

I agree with it too. Truth is truth, and there is no law that makes any employer HAVE to hire a woman- especially a pregnant one, so while it may be illegal to not hire based on age, pregnancy, disabilities.. how yah gonna prove that's why you didn't get hired. Get's more tricky after you are hired and then they WANT to fire you. Better off just not to hire to begin with. Just goes back to my you can't fix everything with laws mentality. You fix one thing and break another... tis the way the world works.

I just watched all six parts.....and damn! that dude talks some sense...
especially about the reckless paying for their own shit.....and about medicare.
They used the small county in Utah as an example....why should a small county's meager taxes pay to rescue some big-city hotshots stupid ass who decided to go BASE jumping and fucked up
Maybe to make it fair...county residents don't have to pay, but outta-county residents do?? That way, those who pay into the system can recieve it's benefits.
And medicare? Fuck.....it's all FUBAR. I understand you payed into it for forty years....well, alright. You can get back however much you payed into it....after that, the funding is DRY for you.
You don't need to go to the doctor every time you have an ache or pain on my paycheck...that's just stupid.
Look at me...I haven't been to a dentist in over a year or so...why? Cause the copay is still around 70 dollars...which on my meager server-tip-salary is still a little rough to make after bills and vehicle upkeep (my AC is going out...FML).
Do I care? NO! nothing hurts....everything was just fine last time I went...I have no REASON to go. I brush twice daily and keep my pearly whites looking and feeling fine.
