If you could live in another time period....

what would you choose? I think I would pick the 1870's so I could experience the Old West.

Emancipation Proclamation was 1863, so anytime prior to that in the South.

Probably around 1500, it wouldn't be weird if I ran away and lived in the woods back then

Depends on whether I can keep the income I have now. I just want to make sure I am rich.  ;)

How, exactly, is Obama getting rich off of taxpayer money? Let's assume in addition to being born in Kenya, not attending University and living a secret life as a M2F transsexual, he also pays no taxes and has no living expenses at all. At $400,000 a year for 8 years, he'll make a total of $3,200,000. That's a rather paltry sum when compared to the amount of money he pulled (and is pulling) in from sales of books he's already published, and he's sure to make a whole lot more from the books that are yet to come.

He's not there to get rich.  He's supposed to be justifying the voters' faith and looking after the country.

Did I say I was rich? What I believe I implied is if I had the income I have today in an earlier time period, I'd be rich. That's not the same thing as saying I am rich today.

I am retired. My income is derived from investments I made while working for the last 50 years.

Are liberals the only folks getting money from tax payers? I suspect not. Seems to me both liberals and conservatives may be eligible for various government funded programs and benefits. Many of the states with biggest percentage of people on public assistance are also strongly conservative (Republican).

As usual, you seem to be talking out your ass.

Thing is those living in those states are both white redneck/hillbilly white trash and ghetto hood rat blacks like that vid of the woman supporting the Obama phone.

I might just zoom into the future so that I can live in a space station and gaze at the earth everyday.  I have always loved space and anything related to it.

Before technology would be great imagine how easy it would be to commit crime. Steal rape and pilage with no consequence. If somebody fucked you off you kill them. No dna. no conviction. Easy to change identities. I guess sometimes I just with I could leave my life behind and go live in a forest as said above. I would want to kill some fuckers first though.

So are you saying that Republicans voted for Obama? If that's the case, why didn't he win in those states?

Is it safe to say that you didn't have the misfortune to be born to parents living in the hills of Tennessee?

Quote
The subsidization of phones began under President Clinton, and has continued under Presidents Bush and Obama. Over that time, the usage of cell phones rose and the costs came down. the service in Tennessee was launched three months prior to Obama being elected. And that means the discussion and approval of the extension of the program occurred under President Bush’s watch.

The Bush Phone, anyone?

The free cell phones only go to those who qualify for the program under the exact same eligibility requirements that have been in effect since 1996. An applicant is generally eligible if they are at or below 135-150% of the Federal Poverty Guidelines (depending upon the state in which they live), or if they already participate in one of many public assistance programs such as Medicaid, food stamps, energy assistance, public housing and others.

Nothing about the Lifeline eligibility has changed since President Clinton’s days. Nothing has changed since President Bush’s days.
