Lebronjeremy, you do not know me and do not know where I get my information from. I am not REGURGITATING PROPAGANDA. Since when is the life of a child propaganda. You could assume all you want about where I get my information, because we all know about ASSUME.
Dmets: I understand where you are coming from. I do not agree with abortion and I would never do it, but Obama is for partial-birth abortion. To kill a child before he is able to TAKE that breath is wrong. Fetuses have heartbeats 44 days after conception (something like 44 days). Partial-birth abortion is done up to 25 weeks. My daughter was born at 27 weeks. 2 weeks time is not that long, but she lived for 2 months. I would never give that back. I could not even think about aborting her just 2 weeks earlier. The doctor told us she had a 80%-90% chance to live. That is too much of a chance to leave it at 2 weeks.
I know a lot of women think it is about them and their rights, but what about the father. This is of his DNA also. He should have a say in it as well.
If we allow partial-birth abortion, what is next. Full term abortion, just as long as the child did not breath. Where do we stop.
You are absolutely right. That is what we youngstown homeowners did. That is why it took them 4 years to pass it. With open enrollment, does that mean Austintown will get money from the government that would have went to the other school district? That is what I get from it.
I do not think open enrollment is a good idea. It is just allowing problems from other school district to come to yours. That is not fair for the kids.
This is an honest question, how does Austintown get money for students tht are coming from other districts (open enrollment). I never really knew that.
And finally, why should the teachers be the ones to suffer. They are the ones in charge of our childrens future, yet they get the worse treatment of all. They are the ones that need to be thought about right after the children.
Becareful Former Youngstowner, you might also be pegged mean and wishing people to fail, unpatriotic, lets not forget the name that the most intelligent boardman needs change came up with, nutty nutterson.
You all say I am the mean person, but yet you all continue to push your views on everyone that does not agree with you. Whatever. I never said I wanted people to lose their job, but regardless of what I say, you all will twist it to make me look like the bad person.
I hope that next time before you start yelling at someone for something they said (and may have not put it so eloquently) you will give them a little more curtesy than you gave me.
Have a wonderful day (by the way boardmanneedschange, I am not posting on my company's payroll, I do it on my own time.)
First of all, boardmanneedschange you need to get your head out of your a$$ and stop trying to make people feel like crap. I am not an unhappy person, unlike you. I have never worked for GM and no family have either, but that does mean that I don't care what happens. I have no idea where you get that I am a hater. By all means, it is the opposite. I just wish for fairness to everyone.
If you can get a large amount of money for your job then more power to you. Everyone has the right to make what they can. If the Union can get you good money, then that is great, but if it comes down to losing your job, why not take less. There is no shame in working for less money and keeping your job. That is the point for sacrifices. I know that CEOs of big companies get great big bonuses. If we use your thinking on this, then they should. They have worked as hard getting where they are, worked longer hours, did their time in college, they deserve what they get, IT IS IN THEIR CONTRACT. Fairness should be for EVERYONE, not just people YOU believe should get it.
Jefflebowski, I know no company or profession is immune from that type of behavior. I have seen it in the company I work for. It does not make it any less of a problem. The company I work for fires you if you are caugth doing these things, as well as a lot of companies in the US. These people need help, not coddling.
My job would not be affected by GM falling off. I am aware that some businesses will suffer, but as a community, we all need to support the small business through times like these. We all need to do our part to help youngstown and ALL the outlying cities survive this. If you have some ideas on how to fix it great, but please stop trying to make yourself more superior to the rest of us by telling people how wrong they are because they do not believe what you do.
Idchian you may have been one of the many that was hard working at GM, and I applaud you for that. But, you also have to admit that there are many at Lordstown that do not do their job. There have been MANY news report of employees drinking alcohol and doing drugs during lunch hours, sleeping during shifts, and just plain not doing their job. Yet, the union still made sure they got what they did not deserve.
So please stop giving us a lecture about how wonderful and hardworking all the GM workers are. We all know what the truth is.

If I was the boy's parent, he would not serve the 10 years. It would be hard to do that 6 feet under.

Unfortunately in America, animals are consider property and not living things. His punishment will be very slight. These laws need to change.
