In my opinion, this is a real world argument, you can't get the right points across on the internet through typing. I had this argument already, so I hold strong to what I wrote in the other thread. I'm done for now, you all can continue this, but you're not going to achieve anything. We didn't in the 7 page or whatever it was other thread.

I didn't want to use that as an example, because it seems pathetic, but it got the point across wither way so, yea, whatever works I guess lol.

No, that was a sweeping generalization, it was a mistake, it came out wrong. I am not racist, I am even best friends with a black girl, trust me, I've heard worse things before in my life, especially when I went to Chicago.

Yes, well, I did mean a broad generalization. There are lots of poverty stricken people trying to make a difference, and I respect that, but others are making them look bad, and they are being hurt by how people look down on them. I support AA based on income only. I do not support welfare unless one has a job, and what I wrote didn't come out right, it's not easy to write.

You want to know why, it's because of HISTORY!! Whites were in huge poverty at the turn of the century, and during the Great Depression, the numbers were huge, they were poor immigrants living on the streets. And you know what they did, they decided to better themselves, and they achieved it, and by the 1950's the American Dream was a reality, and hard working Americans benefited from their hardworking ancestors just one generation below them who were poor as hell. My point? The whites today are people who themselves or their ancestors worked hard to earn. Hilton, Carnegie, Rockefeller, all these were normal people, and they changed that. If the whites changed themselves during the turn of the century and after the Great Depression by accepting opportunities, than why can't blacks today? A vast majority of poor blacks and Latinos don't care about success, they don't get raised properly, and they fall to drug abuse, and gangs, etc. Alot of poverty stricken people live off welfare, and they don't try to get jobs, they just have more babies so they can have more welfare money. I respect those who try to better themselves and their lives, they are making a difference, but the sad truth is, most don't. They are just sucking America for all it's money and resources, and not paying their debt to society. Middle Class Whites get hurt by these taxes, they have to strive to pay bills, while others go out and spend this money of DG or Coach or drugs, etc. And I don't believe you should hurt normal hard working Americans who are themselves striving to get into college, by putting a race barrier upon them (and also poverty stricken blacks and Latinos trying to make a difference). This is just more of America being used for all the wrong reasons. No matter your background you have a chance, and it has been done and proved countless times that you can make something out of nothing (well, excluding matter anyway :P).

That's what makes me wonder about how the water in the oceans would be level, since all water is level. And yes, you bring back up another question I had. What is it level to?

Fail, ever heard of white trash? Or maybe you've heard of: Oprah Winfrey Beyonc̮̩̉̉ Knowles P. Diddy Colin Powel Condoleezza Rice Etc. In the end, no matter your race or your income level (though certain people are are at an advantage, but that's history, what you can you do about it) you can do anything (whithin reason), see above examples. For example, in white middle class, a student may work his/her arse off to get into college, and they will. But they may be second up to someone who didn't work as hard, and had race as an advantage to them. I am glad that Michigan is finally doing something. As in my above examples, you can do anything (within reason). If you want it that bad, you can achieve it regardless of your race, etc. If you don't achieve it, than obviously you didn't want it badly enough. Success has no room for failure or quitters, you're either in, or your out. It all comes down to your choice. And yes, some people will have to work harder than others. That's obvious, welcome to society.

Phantom of the Opera, in French? Where did you get it from? I would sure like to listen to it : ~MAK The DVD, put it in French. : Or use Amazon.com and find the French cast. I always thought Dutch was a fairly easy language, and German was the hard one, though they are somewhat similar. I looked into Dutch a little, and one of the first things they mentioned was that 't' rule, and said it's a very hard rule to catch on to. Reminds me of 'ett' and 'en' words in Swedish, again, not easy. If you have an iPod, try downloading Dutch podcasts. They are usually free. Itunes also has Dutch radio you can listen to for free.

Yea, what he said.

Yea, that's where English and school are conflicts.

Proactiv is picky about how it's used, if you apply it just slightly wrong, at least from my experience, it seems to not work. :-k

Seriously, Proactive works, it's just not cheap.

Amen to that. Though I agree you should probably use some of your power and money to do something good in the world, like Oprah has done on countless occasions.

Gah, all I have to say is goodbye America and enjoy your endless conflicts and bad choices. I'll be in Tahiti laughing at you all. (But I do give props to Michigan for actually doing something.)

I can't argue that, but it would seem (using immersion ie. not actually going to the country), that English would distract your brain. Maybe...?

Grim, does that really work? I have some understanding of Swedish and are wondering if that really does work? Would it work for grammar? Maybe it's good for speaking and understanding (like immersion), but not for writing and reading, because that involves grammar. BTW, where did you live?

Use the magical device called income.

Yea, I did. If I wasn't lazy, I'd search and bump it.

Vmser, can you speak Flemish?

The irregular verbs can drive someone insane. :XD:

I want one!! :shock:

I forgot how all the thrid world countries, and dictators played Runescape. I mean, I bet that's where the Iraq war came from, a large PK war led by Bush where he lost. :o

Teach yourself books. It's how I'm learning Swedish. Or you could try Rosseta Stone if you have a few $100 you have nothing to do with. Dutch Forum From Tip It User However, all the Dutch people are sleeping right now. Shhh... O:)

Ooo Armadillo : I don't know much about them but they look cool, do they sell them at pet stores...? :-s lol I know, they're sooo cute!! You can get them on the side of the road in Texas, and other southern states. You could get a jellyfish or hammerhead shark. :P Too bad I live in Massachusetts, I doubt I'm gonna go to Texas to get an Armadillo :-w why dont you send that hammerhead shark to me via UPS? kay? K, will do. But first I must make sure you have a huge round tank. Sharks of any kind always have to swim in a loop, they can never hit a wall, else they will die.
