Topic: Teen Poverty In America

[Mac]

It's this sort of behaviour which I find disgusting Rod.

See new PM.

[Mac]

I don't know what these two ladies intend to do about it all.

[Mac]

It didn't happen in the British Army at home.

so you are saying it did occur when you wheren't at home? i.e. away in foreign countries. Anyway as rod said this isn't the army... we are nice community of people interested in having some fun, so lets please keep it nice (not that a bit of discussion isn't good but there is a line).

How many are we, compared to the global population?

[davy51]

Anyone remember hip huggers, mini skirts, see through blouses, race riots, mafia drugs bosses, prostitution, pornography, numbers games, gambling, extortion, murder, rape, incest, wife beating, drunken brawling, and torture, etc. ...

Check out your dictionary.

all countrys have tese problems

and most and i did say most armys in the world have suffered all these things internally

as a vet i can attest to this fact


no nation or any very large groups are imune from what you listed

I wish it wern't so but thats the way things are

all youngsters rebel and have since the beginning of time

its called stretching your wings

for now its drooping pants and short tops

in the 20's it was flappers in the 30s in the 50's rock and roll and all along parents world



the next generation will have something new


but the world will survive it

[sam]

but the world will survive it

damn straight it will.. and probably be better for it! (in most cases).

[Mac]

Even if they add another 80 billion people?

[Mac]

All countries have these problems.

Why?

Do you really know?

How would it be if none of these problems existed?

Why should they exist at all?

How would America be with 100,000 people per state?

[sam]

How would America be with 100,000 people per state?

boring.

[sam]

Even if they add another 80 billion people?

yes. we will be all dead due to our use of fuel before then.. we can easily handle that many in terms of housing and food... the Earth is big!

[Mac]

No, the Earth is a finite size.

[Mac]

Of a representative 100,000 how many do you know personally and how many are members of - your - family?

Living in Britain do you know the names of all 60 million people?

Does the President of America know the names of all 800 million people?

How would America be with 100,000 people per state?

From talking to people all over the world and having friends.


these problems will exist to the end of time any time you have the human race involved you will have vices

with 100,000 per state this country would collapse

it takes more than that to keep a large city working

you are looking back to the 16 and 17oo's

very few people and very little comerce going on

many died uselessly and many were mistreated very badly by some that wanted a dictatorship and kept their own private armys

happily this was put to an end

Why does anyone need large cities? There weren't any in America 300 years ago.

You are looking back to the 16 and 1700's, very few people and very little commerce going on.

Many died uselessly and many were mistreated very badly by some that wanted a dictatorship and kept their own private armys.

Happily this was put to an end.

What if Singapore was the only populated land mass on the entire planet?

[Mac]

Even if they add another 80 billion people?

Yes, we will be all dead due to our use of fuel before then. We can easily handle that many in terms of housing and food. The Earth is big!

We can easily handle being dead?

We will house and feed the dead then?

Right...

[Mac]

I don't know what these two ladies intend to do about it all.

Maybe one will giveth and the other will taketh away.

End result ... nothing.
