Perhaps you should arm yourself with an army of accountants/tax lawyers instead of complaining about your taxes"
Done.......(a LONG time ago)
As to; "YI the top 10% of income earners, which include lawyers, doctors and business owners (among a just a few professions) account for more than half of all income tax payed in Canada"
Nonsense/a flagrant lie. The top 10% SHOULD pay half the income taxes in Canada (and the US for that matter) IF they paid taxes on INCOME rather than TAXABLE income.
There is a difference.....look it up if you're not certain what the said difference is/may be.
Better yet , save yourself the time, there is not a single credible document from the CRA/IRS on the cleavage in-between income/taxable income. We do know from CRA that the federal government brings in 132 billion dollars in income-taxes per year while "losing" another 150 billion dollars per year in loopholes and tax deductions
That's 150 billion per year we could be paying down the debt with..... | 0 | not toxic |

Seem like you are incapable of having an adult conversation without feeling the need to first try to belittle or name call the person you having a discussion with. I do disagree with your claim. From my research, what Corker did was push legislation that would ultimately grant CONGRESS power to review the deal. To me, this is the right role of congress. This legislation was supported by overwhelming BIPARTISAN majority in BOTH house and senate. In the senate if passed 98 -1. In essence it granted Congress the opportunity to review the Iran nuclear deal BEFORE sanction were lifted on Iran.
It is better explained here:
http://www.cnn.com/2017/10/24/politics/donald-trump-bob-corker-iran-deal-fact-check/index.html
The Iran deal, like in many deals and negotiation, there is give and take in order to come to an ultimate agreement. I am in favor of the Iran deal as brokered by the US, China, Russia, Germany, France, GB primarily because it keeps nuclear weapons out of the hands of Iran. | 0 | not toxic |

That's an 87.5% increase from the $8/hr wage in 2007, more than three times the rate of inflation for 12 years in a row. I believe in a living wage, but on a 40-hour week that's $31,000 per year. Pretty steep for an employer, and even steeper when you include the 20% additional employee cost (UI, CPP, etc), additional holidays, the Liberal introduction of family day, cap and trade, on and on.

The hallmark of all Coach Shoji teams was grit. No fear! And as a player, Coach Ah Mow-Santos was the poster child for grit. Ice water. Steely. This team is no different. We see it in Mags' eyes -- in Iosia's, Kahakai's, Granato's, Greeley's, Anderson's, Koelsch's, Ross's, Smith's, and others'. This team won't back down. In fact, they're at their best when their back is against the wall. As Coach says, game time will tell. Greeley has to get healthy. We need her steady hand and v-ball IQ. Sibley, Burns, and Castillo have a world of potential, and we need them to have a breakout season. The biggest difference in the Ah Mow-Santos era will be the grit in the coach's eyes. No fear. No panic. And we're going to see it mirrored on the court. Prediction: This team will go undefeated in conference. Go 'Bows! | 0 | not toxic |

A huge flaw in the American Justice System. Someone with a lot of money has to challenge one of these not guilty police killer trials. A prosecutor that works for the same government as the cop, normally the same city is prosecuting a fellow employee. Whether intentionally or unintentionally, the prosecutor will not give the prosecution his best effort. There has to be an independent prosecutor in the police trials. Someone not connected to the cop in anyway. This would never be allowed in any other type of trial. | 0 | not toxic |

The fact that so many lives were lost in this tragic fire indicates either 1) the fire was inadequately contained in the apartment of fire origin and spread quickly inside the building, or 2) people remained in their units and were overcome when heat/smoke entered their apartment through windows. If scenario 2) was at play, then that raises the question of whether or not the building had a voice communication system that was capable of instructing people to leave their apartments. If there was no such system in place, then you have to wonder how many lives could have been saved if there was. | 0 | not toxic |
He was a "medic." Isn't it about time to put that sob-story to rest?
Sgt. Chris Speer was an elite Delta Force soldier. Every single one of them is trained to be a lethal weapon. Every special forces unit gives certain members extra training in combat first aid, and in his unit that was Speer. However he carried weapons and was prepared to use them just like any other combat soldier.
The laws of war are clear concerning medics. They must wear an identifying insignia, such as a red cross on their clothing. They may NOT take part in any combat duties. They may only carry a sidearm, and that is only to be used to protect the sick and injured under their care.
Sgt. Speer did none of those things. The instant he went into potential battle with any survivors in the bombed compound, he was an ordinary combatant. | 0 | not toxic |

I absolutely agree that women should be able to choose not to go to a Catholic hospital to get their health care if they aren't happy with or do not agree with the care they will receive. That is what I have been saying. That is what "choice" and "freedom" is all about. Liberals, after all love "choice" don't they--except when people "choose" not to be liberal or accept the tenants of liberalism.
I also agree with you that they should fully understand what care they can and cannot get at a Catholic hospital. This will better empower women to make "choices." See, you and I agree!
Tell me--as long as you support the idea women should be clearly told about the care they can and cannot get at a Catholic hospital so they can make an informed "choice" do you also support women being told about other options to abortion--so that they can make a fully informed decision------excuse me "choice?" | 0 | not toxic |

Cohen is the epitome of the elite Republicans who have controlled the party for too long and now see their control slipping away. Their fascist, corporate welfare policies have destroyed the middle class. The imperial war mongering policies have cost trillions and tens of thousands of lives. The jig is up, millions are waking up. That is why Trump has more votes than any other previous Republican candidate. The elites like Cohen have enriched themselves by exporting American jobs and calling it "free trade", allowing 30 million illegals to invade our country to keep wages low, and government contracts fueling the military industrial complex to the point where the USA military is bigger than the next ten countries combined. Notice the call from Republican leadership and Cohen to vote for Clinton. This is all the proof positive needed to show anyone the game is rigged. It should provide more incentive to put an outsider like Mr. Trump in to sweep out the dirt. | 0 | not toxic |
AT: I am not in some contest, to "lose" or "win." I am expressing my opinions based on my knowledge of this incident. Do I condemn the police actions......indeed I do. I stated at the time and continue to believe that a lack of training regarding dealing with PTSD veterans led to their handling this confrontation in precisely the wrong fashion. Instead of de-escalating the situation, they escalated it. You dismiss the quotation from a third-party expert on working with PTSD individuals as ""Hogwash."
I hope the police have learned from this case and will have a better understanding of PTSD issues and how to deal with them without escalating the level of confrontation. However, the reaction of the EPD has been to defend their every action and not acknowledge any mistakes. In today's litiguous world, that's the approach virtually everyone takes....Deny, defend..... Ironically enough, it is an approach which also promotes lawsuits.

In the fourth century, Jerome wrote of Christians, "Your churches are festooned with silver and gold while Christ himself lies dying on their steps." It's the same in every age: religion becomes just one more device for acquiring power over men. The starting mythology is unimportant. No creed could be more pacifistic than Buddhism, yet look at the violence Sri Lankan Buddhists inflicted on their Hindu Tamil neighbors, or the persecution Burmese Buddhists now inflict on the Muslim Rohingya. During World War II revered Zen abbots justified Japan's cruel invasion and occupation of China, which caused perhaps 5 million military casualties and an estimated 20 million civilian deaths.

AFT, you are correct in your view. The Irish Hierarchy, were pitifully, deferential to the Vatican. They did not act without it's approval. When the abuse scandal broke; they were like rabbits caught in the headlights; they just froze. It also emerged in the Judicial Reviews that each member remained silent about complaints of abuse in their diocese. They did not share or seek advice about how to handle complaints; motivated by the fact that they did not want to be seen as the one who brought scandal on the church. That was their primary goal. A contributing factor also was the selection of bishops. Under JPII & BVI; Papal Nuncios were all of a related template. Unfortunately just before BVI resigned, he promoted his long serving personal assistant (10 yrs) at the CDF, Monsignor Charles Brown (U.S.) as Nuncio and personally consecrated him as Archbishop. A chip off the old block, he continued to use the same template to select nominations for Irish bishops. All "yes" men of tradition. | 0 | not toxic |

I'm sitting here wondering how effective the hands off approach to North Korea has been up til now through a multitude of presidents, including the famous Saint Obama. And, jeepers, I have to come to the conclusion it's not been effective at all. Which is why I'm puzzled Ignatius is pushing a narrative which seems to imply there are no diplomatic solutions left here - none of them seem to have worked in the past so what difference does it make if there are none left now? There never were any. We've been pushed around by North Korea for the past 60+ years and all that's happened on our side is a bunch of hand wringing and internal back slapping because we've been so "diplomatic". I know a large part of Ignatius's position is simply "get Trump" but at some point we have to open our eyes to the reality of the situation. And, like I've typed before - the left is more afraid of a Trump success with North Korea than North Korea itself. | 0 | not toxic |

It apparently shows that this group agrees with trump when he condones sexual assault of women, and agree that grabbing women by the p*ssy is perfectly acceptable.

LFS2,
Then I guess I misread your intent with this comment, "...exactly why the non-battleground states voters should turn to the Libertarian and Green Parties to cast their votes. I took it to mean ONLY non-battleground states should vote third party. Ok, that's cleared up.
I agree 100% that the two parties who run the show will not allow any significant change to the rules as they stand. I really hold out no serious hope for that, but for any third party to have a chance to grow that is where it would start. Any third party that does grow to become a significant threat will be co-opted( at a minimum ) or destroyed. I think third parties serve as an outlet for people who need to feel they are accomplishing something outside of the duopoly we have in this country. That is the function they serve IMO. | 0 | not toxic |

I spent 22 years in the Alaska Army Guard including two years in Bethel. In this area I served with some very fine soldiers yet I was also forced to serve with dregs who were there only because of the undue political influence of those who saw (and apparently continue to see) the purpose of the National Guard in rural Alaska to be nothing more than a "jobs program" intended to inject cash in to rural Alaska. This article demonstrates again exactly why the Commanding General of the Alaska National Guard should not also be a State Commissioner. This is the National Guard not AIDEA. While a General Officer would seriously question the military benefit of this ill-defined program that same State Commissioner can think of no better idea. Creating jobs is not a primary military mission yet it is to politicians. A person in uniform should not be advocating on either side of this purely political effort primarily intended to inject cash into Alaska communities. | 0 | not toxic |

The article mentions that Cardinal Cushing prayed at President Kennedy's inauguration, but Mr. Sadowski omits "the rest of the story" (as Paul Harvey would say.) The podium caught fire while the Cardinal was praying, but Cushing persevered. You can watch it here:

What you should have done is stay positive in your support for public schools but leave out the BS racist & other attacks you made on private schools in an attempt to bolster your case. Your opinion piece did just the opposite & reinforced to parents that if they can do so, they should send their kids to private schools in Hawaii. My opinion is that parents should send their kids to private schools in Hawaii but if that is a financial hardship send their kids to public school until the 6th grade, then try to get them in from 7th grade on. Honolulu magazine ranked Hawaii public schools & agree there are some terrific public elementary schools in Hawaii that would rival Punahou or Iolani. HOWEVER, at the intermediate & high school levels are the most differentiation between private and public schools. If you can ever take politics, greed & the unions out of the DOE, will be the day public schools will be on par with private schools (it was pre WW2). Don't hold your breath for that. | 0 | not toxic |
