Oh, okay, I guess you're right, the war in Iraq sure wasn't based on innacurate information. Thanks for all your evidence . Telling me that that was wrong totally showed me the error of my ways. | |||

Originally posted by Ziffski You're not writing a thesis. But even if you were, you can't just list a name as a source. You have to list an actual journal citation or whatever. I certainly hope you wouldn't write a thesis with a bibliography that's just a list of names. Originally posted by Ziffski I'm trying to interpret what your question meant. It seems to imply that the only way to prevent ourselves from committing injustices is to give money. Wouldn't it be simpler to just... not commit injustices? Or is not giving money an injustice? |

Ah, but if the person is used during a 1 on 1 interview, you list their number, credentials and a way to contact them. And whenever you write your opinion you're writing a thesis. |

The only way to cure diseases is money, it really doesn't matter on much else. I read somewhere that as many as 1/4 of the African population has AIDs. While I'm pretty sure the numbers arn't that extreme but one person with AID's is still to many. The only way to really prevent AID's and sexual disease is just to stop having sex. Which apparently is insanely differcult to do since people can't seem to stop fucking random people. I'm not sure exactly but I'm pretty damn sure AIDs has always been around but since people were different back than, it wasn't a problem to the general public. Than the 1960's came along as did the sexual revolution. The 1960's really fucked America up in the STD's department. 1960-1962 saw a drop in pre-martial and teenage sex from the 50's but when the board of education decided to teach sex ed in schools in 1962 (or was it 1963?) the number begin to raise and it didn't really drop until the AID's outbreak of the 1980's. So yeah, I blame the 60's and sex education. Its kind of like the DARE program except people realize that was getting kids to do drugs instead of preventing the use of them. As for the United States giving aid to other countries, why does it matter so much? Why don't you point the finger at the other countries who give less than we do and make angry faces at them? Why much it always be us being bitched at? Yes, I will agree our foregin policy has alot of faults and I do believe the only good foregin policy we ever had was the one inplace when Washington was president. And for the record, could people stop bringing up the War with Iraq in nearly every discussion that mentions Bush, American Politics, or Foregin Policy? Its getting quite annoying and we all know the whole "Bush is Hitler" and the other typical anti-war/Bush speeches. |

Yes, imperialism is history, but today's western societies benefit from the imperial ages, just as the third world countries lost a lot during the same period of time. To me, the obvious way to go would be to help eradicate the differences, to help create a more just world (and yes, you've stated your point quite clearly, your definition of justice is not the same as mine. There is no need to try to bring that up, as, obviously, we don't see eye to eye on that). The children who die of starvation in third world countries today could have the potential to do something great for all of mankind, but they will never fulfill their potential because they're living in areas where they have troubles meeting the standard requirements on step one of A. Maslow's pyramid. Liberty for all of mankind (I'm here talking about positive liberty, as explained by I. Berlin) can only come when all of mankind has fulfilled all levels of the pyramid, and reached self-actualization (note that I am now tolking theoretically, I'm not a fool who cannot see that the possibility for all of mankind to reach this point is rather low). This will also be to the benefit for society, since everyone will be able to reach their potential, thus helping science and such push forward. Again, reaching this is most likely impossible, but the closer we get, the better for everybody. As for my debate with you, Legion, why should I bother debating with you when you obviously won't bother to be serious? |

What I think is funny is how the Bush administration spent millions in the US to teach school kids abstinence. Protection through not having sex. Do you know how many pregnant teenagers could have been "saved" if they had used all that money to put condom dispensers in school bathrooms? Are condoms vulgar? Are condoms dangerous for your health? Are condoms illegal? Not only would they pay for themselves, they would also prevent a lot of stupid shit. The number 1 reason kids don't buy condoms is because they find it embarrassing. In the US it's even worse, cause they don't have pharmacies, it's always a small supermarket with a pharmacy section, or even worse, it's next to the batteries behind the teller, and you have to ask "Hello, I would like this box of condoms... No... Not the durex one... No, that one on the left... Yes. Ribbed cinnamon tropical pleasure. Thank you." and you have this mom with her 4 kids behind you looking at you with that "omg you're only 12!!!" look... And yes, dammit, I had to go to CVS to buy condoms once because we wanted to make waterbombs for senior prank day and I drew the shortest straw, I HAD TO ASK FOR THE CHEAPEST ONES, I THOUGHT I WAS GONNA DIE. Imagine how much easier it would have been if they sold them directly in the school bathroom. (edited by kiwibonga on 12-06-04 03:30 PM) |
