Actually, they all concern me, but you said I could only choose one. The situation with haealth care in the U.S. is a big concern. There is something fundamentally worng with a society when we have people in the lower SES groups that cannot afford treatment for a very real and treatable disease, and at the same time have people in the upper income levels choosing to spend thousands of dollars on elective surgeries in the name of vanity.

Hmm... I rather to pick "Others" because I have too many issue with the governments.

*Legalize marijuana
*EQUALITY Rights (include the genders, homosexuality, etc)
*Change the transportation system, ban the cars please and use something different
*Enough of drafts!
*Reduce the population of polices
*Reduce the taxes, we can surivive without the taxes

That's all I have problem with governments...

Frankly there's alot of issues but right now we really need to focus on the ozone layer. If we keep up at this rate damaging the earth we won't even be around to argue about tax, abortion, health care and whatanot. That's the biggest focus, after you solve that problem and stablize the ozone layer you can move onto the next biggest thing. I personally believe that the evoriment is in far more danger than we are, because if it is in danger then so are we.

The food we grow comes from the dirt, the air we breathe, the water we drink, the animals we eat they all get contaiminated and our health fails then the gene pool weakens and society collapses while we're too worried about who has more oil or nuclear missiles. After that I'm pretty certian we need health care and economic stabilization.

I personally do not trust any form of government myself. I'd like to see legalizing weed myself solely to see how America handles it. I keep getting the feeling that if Obama gets president we just might get a push in that direction.

I hate to break you. We need taxes....in a small price.

Reduce the population of police officers? Then we will have more criminals, murderer, and etc...law breakers.

Drafts? Draft isn't open yet.

Why ban cars? We need to drive to somewhere in the country. I live in country for awhile. But we got to dealin' with gas and etc.


I voted illegal immigrantion. Too many illegal immigration in my area and the states on the border of Mexico.

You must be glad that's not worse as where I live in CA, much more than Texas right now and probably shift when Texas will be #1 or so but demographic studied is considered that hispanic will going to be majority (more than 50%) by 2030 then CA will be next 2nd or so.

It's not big deal to me, though.

I voted on illegal immigration cuz have too many mexicans coming over the border and taking over many jobs that require little training and that is bringing down the wages.

Also Global Warming should be put up as an issue because Bush gov't continues to ignore it as favor to the businesses who can afford lobbyists to get congressmen to support them. Bush is pro-business and don't care for the regular man--ofc, he is born wealthy and never knew what's like to be poor.

For me I think health care is a big concern here in the US. We have to pay LOT of money to keep us healthy. They're rising rapidly due to greedy doctors who want MONEY and people becoming unhealthy due to bad choice of foods, etc like that.

If you live in Washington, you will understand. Everything, everytime, you paid for taxes.

Reduce the population of police officers? Then we will have more criminals, murderer, and etc...law breakers.

I mean like those ridicilious laws like you have to use seatbelts, you have to be slow on the cars, blah blah blah , or police will bust you and pull you in the jail or fine you stuff that making people's life harder.

Drafts? Draft isn't open yet.

Correct, but it should be illegal.

Why ban cars? We need to drive to somewhere in the country. I live in country for awhile. But we got to dealin' with gas and etc.

I said "use something different than the cars" like hybirds, motorcycles, or something, regular cars sucks ALOT more than the house.

So yeah..

I would say education is far the most important, better education, better teachers, quality education, better transportation and school funding. All children should have a similar opportunity to a quality education and a lot of good jobs require higher levels of education too. So, I vote for "Education".

then get high paying job and don't worry about illegal immigrants.

There's no big deal with them.

I respectfully disagree, Illegal immigrants are a big deal, They are free loaders taking advantage of Americans, They don't learn our language, don't pay taxes, go unpunished if they break the law. If they want to work in the United States, do it the right way, determine the legal status being an United States citizen.

So, I consider illegal immigration a serious problem, a problem that needs to be solved.

The government should reduce the taxes and improve unemployment rate. Those 2 things are mainly matter to me.

Eh? How can undocumented workers pay taxes when you need a social security number card? Are you saying they're using false social security numbers to work in the United States?

No idea, we do have many mexican employees at our job but can't bother them when discussing about legal or illegal immigrant, also bad thing if call them like that.

I only found out from my co-worker that they did paid to federal tax and state tax, not know about SS or medicare.

I know that wal-fart does require SSN for paycheck, if without then not know.

How bad is the German unemloyment rate? The U.S. one is at 4.4%--historically quite low.

Cheri, my apology.

I was just stated about workers that who takeover other worker's position then make other workers (such as US citizen) to laid off, it's common for low paying job. I just said if people got high paying job then low paying job isn't big deal, also not point about tax issue or others because not much idea about tax issue.

they need either SSN or Vista in order to work. Without either, they would work someone really dirty to get cold cash.
