Why don't conservatives believe in personal responsibility and accountability anymore?
You ignore the main mandatory section on your diagnosis. That Republicans say get government out of ways and the yank spirit, entrepreneurship will paved the way. Now who's the government? Obama. His threats of raising taxes, His uncertainty to EPA rules. If a employer can plan long term they are in a position to flow forward. If the economic stability is uncertain they wait. whilst the employer loans take 5-10-25 years to pay returned and the present government shift positions weekly, who is going to risk the capital to improve, rebuild, revamp or hire on new workers, no person. whilst employer and fulfillment is the enemy of government what tension is there to be triumphant.
How can choosing to not text while driving be a personal responsibility? (think safety)?
Say What ... you cannot be serious about your question !
My parents think my boyfriend of 2 years is using me . boyfriend vs parents father cursing, fighting :(?
You don't need to be on yahoo asking this question because you know the answer to it already. You're boyfriend is the man you want to be with and you know his true qualities. That is honestly all that matters. Both of your parents, your father in particular are being ridiculously selfish. I mean, it's not like your boyfriend can get to your father's money if he wanted to, so I don't understand why he is so angry. It's not like this guy couldn't sign a pre nup if you get married etc of course, your boyfriend might be insulted by signing this, but you know what I mean. There is no threat to your father's money so why is he getting so angry. The only thing that will happen here is that he will drive you away. Stop letting him have so much control. If he rings you and yells hang up. If he yells in your face then leave. Simply explain that your boyfriend is your boyfriend and will stay that way for as long as possible. And if your father carries on like this then that is the end of your relationship. He may start throwing the threat of living you penniless in your face, but that is the only way he knows how to control people it seems, through money. I know you are exasperated with your parents but take heart from the fact your boyfriend seems like a pure gentleman. Honest and hardworking, any girl would be lucky. Do not let your boyfriend text your father again, it will do no good. Neither of your parents have any respect for you and think you are a child and one day soon they will suffer because of this. One day you will leave and that will be that. It seems you are between a rock and a hard place with your father paying for college so he has control over you this way, but don't be afraid of him. Stand up for yourself. Stay calm and do not yell. Try not to let this get to you because both of your parents will never see the light. You also have to consider the fact that they are scared of losing you. Their response is irrational I know, but if you are an only child?
Teens: What law do you think should be changed?
I'm sixteen and I personally, hate all of the laws regarding minors. I'll list what I think should be changed. I think you should be able to drink at 18; not 21, because your officially an adult. And since an 18 year old an be saddled with all of the responsibilities of being an adult (supporting themselves, able to be sued, etc) then they should also have the freedoms that come with adulthood. I think that is any state, you should be allowed to get a drivers license at 16, because people have to learn at some time, and you know what they say, early bird gets the worm. Someone learning to drive at 18 wouldn't make much of a difference they still wouldn't be very experienced. I think that you should be able to drop out at 16, and it shouldn't matter what grade you are in at that time, because American public high school has a lot of negative aspects to it, and I think it's understandable that some people get to the point where they just need to get away from it, for whatever reason. And lastly, I think that the age of consent should be 16, but I also think that if you are old enough to be having sex, than it shouldn't matter how old your sex partner is (as long as their 16+). I think that the whole 'statutory rape' thing is a crock of sh*t. And the only that reason that law was ever passed was to prevent teen pregnancy...and you can see how well that worked. It's better for a teen to be with someone who knows what their doing, rather than two dumbass 13 year old's having sex, while most (not all, but most of them) don't know anything about birth control. And also hate the statutory rape thing because if someone is having sex, they shouldn't be stupid enough to fall for that "we love each other and we'll be together crap." It's none of the governments business wither 16 year old girls get manipulated into having sex by 20 year olds, because these girls are usually niave enough to fall for this crap by anyone they have sex with. What are your opinions?
One of your peers is having a difficult time with some personal problems. He is allowing those problems to int?
Number the choices 1-5: 1. Focus on doing your job and stop bailing the peer out. 2. Tell your supervisor about the problem and see if she can help. 3. Meet with the peer and see if there is anything you can do to help him with his personal problems. 4. Continue to help out as you can and hope the problem gets better. 5. Suggest to the peer that he seek help through the Employee Assistance Program. As a manager, I would advise 5, 1, 2, 4, 3. EAP is the official way for an employee to get help in a neutral setting, thus it is #1. Next, you don't want to be sacrificed on the altar of extracurricular help, so mind your own shop. 2, 3, and 4 are meddlesome, and sometimes don't result in happy endings. Your supervisor should be told, but don't criticize or indict your coworker; just inform your boss as a matter of fact. Fourth, hope is always a bad idea, as is carrying another's problems. Finally, don't offer to help. This definitely has a bad ending as you will become the patsy and responsible for the failure of both of you. This is the worst of all ideas.
Is buzzed driving drunk driving?
"Buzzed" is just another way of saying "I'm not as drunk as I think I am." The point is, that if one has been drinking enough to "feel the buzz" then one is already drunk. That is to say, that person's ability to drive safely has already been impaired. One doesn't have to be falling down drunk, reeling from wall to wall to have judgement, corordination and reactions effected. That's the point of all those public service announcements talking about "buzzed driving is drunk driving." That's because it IS. I know you're just being a wise guy with your comment about how you might as well finish getting drunk before driving home since it is the same. But the impact of those commercials should be that one should NOT drive buzzed anymore than driving while roaring drunk. Someone killed by a "buzzed" driver is just as dead as one killed by a "drunk" driver. So, points to you for being a VERY funny guy. And thanks for giving me the opportunity to "lecture" the "other guys" who don't get it.
