My crying frequency declined sharply when I hit college. For the first time, I got emotional on Saturday... I tore my ACL, which is a critical ligament in the knee, can't continue Swing Dancing, and can't go skiing ever again, unless I opt for a surgery, and six months recovery, with no guarantee of 100% recovery. For all I know, I could have just ended any physical things I might ever do again... I'm 18.

[QUOTE="galbi_tang"]

I use Chase Banking... Is there any overdraft forgiveness for the first time? I'm pretty pissed.

RJay123

Go to a Chase bank and sit down and talk with someone about it. It's the only way. If you are a student, tell them you are a student.

When this happened to me through Bank of America, I went to the bank and talked to someone at their desk (not the teller, but the people that help start new accounts at the desks) and out of the 6 or 7 overdrafts I accidently made (lol), they forgave the first one

I have BoA as well, and they've forgiven me three times. Within a period of six months. That sounds incredibly irresponsible, but they were for legitimate reasons, and of course, I'm a student as well. If you tell them the truth, and find a way to relate it to a sob story, it'll work out for you... My total overdraft fee was somewhere near $150 when all was said and done.

Segue. I always thought that the transition was spelled "segway," or "seg-way." Only in the past year have I figured this one out, and I'm midway through Freshman year in college.

[QUOTE="Mochyc"][QUOTE="DaBrainz"]

Although I do not agree with the pollsters, I can respectively say they have the right to their opinion.

It seems that liberalism was founded on tolerence yet has became the least tolerant sector of society.

DaBrainz

They have the right to an opinion, and I have a right to criticize that opinion, and whoever holds it.

And I have a right to criticize you for criticizing. Isn't it wonderful.

Yeah! This nation would be so much better off if we just suppressed the views of everyoneand just resorted to letting one person lead. Why don't we try that?

Several times. In the Rose Parade, for an interview about local fires, for something regarding schools, and I think that's it.

Lost it at seventeen. Should have waited for something more special. Now I'm almost nineteen. It didn't mean as much to me as to some though, I suppose, but I still regret it.

[QUOTE="Doctor-McNinja"][QUOTE="LJS9502_basic"]Government can't manage anything successfully. Competition creates lower prices. Government is not lower prices. And considering I work for the state in retail....I can tell you the prices are not lower with all the tax they put on.LJS9502_basic
I dunno, the government used to provide power in Britain until the 80s when they sold off everything to private companies, and prices have gone up and up and up since then.

Are they competing? Or is it set up by region?

LJS, that is assuming that there's not a monopoly, partial or otherwise. If there is one dominant gasoline/petrol industry, the industry (the Middle East) can force up the prices as much as they want to. I'm not an expert in the field, but from what I understand, that's what caused gasoline to go up in price from $1.50/gallon to roughly $5.00/gallon in under four years. When you consider that we could fill up a truck for $20, and that price skyrockets to almost $70, that sounds more threatening.

Also, wind farms centered in one region of the US don't sound feasible either. Even if they stretch from North to South, the danger it presents if there is an attack on the farm is incredible. One would be a fool to center energy production in one region or one one type of energy. There needs to be variation. Clean variation, but variation nonetheless.

I definitely believe that our governments have the capacity to find and approve cures to cancer, HIV, AIDS and other diseases. As mentioned though, there is far more money invested in insurance and treatment companies with returning clients. If patients are cured, treatment is a one-stop-shop, and the need for treatment disappears, killing all of the Chemo companies, and whatever is used to treat HIV/AIDS.

I don't know about the others, but obviously we can't say for sure right now.
