2. What are your options when the government is a thief and will not return what it stole?

Only a coup can solve this one.

3. What government related essay topic would be a good one to write on?

Government related in what aspect? I think addressing the issue of the government providing Health Care to Americans would be a great topic as there is so much debate around it. Other good topics maybe the improvements in the U.S. defense system after 9/11 and the impact it had on U.S. citizens (airport security, bomb scares, drills, etc). Or Even relate the 2 in a sense. Use the amount of money used to defend the country in comparison to how much it would cost to provide basic Health Care coverage to americans. Improvements in the Welfare system is another great topic as well.

4. Why should the Federal government have the ability to preside over issues like abortion and same-sex rights?

I think its horrible that our federal Govt trys to stick its hands in everything. To askers added comment Yes it does. That is one reason I Love Ron Paul. He does not vote for anything not expressly mentioned in the Constition, because as a legislator on the Federal level it is not his place to. WoW. Dr. No . I love it that one man actually Abides by the Constition. For over 20 yrs too. His voting record is easily researched. I love that although he personally does not think same sex marriage is ok, he voted No on A Federal Same Sex Marriage Ban because its not the federal govts job to define that. Thats integrity. i i- Democrats are just as responsible as Republicans for the Mess that our government has become. They both bear equal blame as do the people who vote on silly things like name recognition. Calvin Republicans are no longer the party of Small Government. They have aquired a love of throwing money at things to fix them. Which is what republicans used to say about democrats. Somewhere along the line people who were social conservatives but Big Govt liberals enterd therepublican party claiming to be conservatives when in fact they are just conservatives socially. The popular word for these people are Neo Cons. Read Where The Right Went Wrong by Patrick J Buchanan to read more about the beginings of the Neo Con movement and how they hijacked the Republican Party. The Party of Small Government

5. How many people think Big government liberals are fascist deep down?

I think liberals like big government.

6. Should the municipal government have a key to each tenants apartment?

I can't find any reference to a law requiring that. Do you have more specific information? I highly doubt such a regulation would be legal.

7. Does the government bailout plan means that the government would become a larger shareholder of the company?

8. What does the government do to protect competition in a free-market system?

They are supposed to keep monopolies from forming. Also taxes and regulations should be evenly applied.

9. How can people reclaim from government the right to make their own choices?

10. What government policies affect the world food supply?

This is by no means comprehensive. Ethanol is a good example of the government subsidizing a very bad idea with has caused a spike in corn prices which affest the consumer. Usually the government interferes indirectly by allowing subsities or enacting, tightening or easing tariff which will favor a certain foods production over another. The government could adopt a true free market system and let the market find it own equilibrium which would be best for everyone.

11. What government assistance can my wife and I get for having twins in Michigan?

12. What happens when one branch of government assumes too much power?

Even though I disagree with the nature of the question (the idea that the Gitmo detainees have no rights), I can see how it is a valid question. Two courses of action can take place. 1. Congress can make an amendment to the Constitution. 2. The Executive Branch doesn't have to enforce the ruling (this has happened several times in history, most well-known would have been desegregation). In answer to your hidden question. The Supreme Court was given the right of Judaical Review (declaring something unconstitutional) in the same document that gave the other two powers. It was well within their rights.

13. Is the government treating the tax rebate like a refund?

I remember reading somewhere that they do take back taxes out of it, but I cant find it now!! My friend owed back taxes and they reduced her stimulus check from $600 to $200. Take a look around the IRS website.

14. Does some government deal regulate how long they can show the NFL cheerleaders on TV during the game?

hahah luckily the government has little control in terms of camera shots i'm sure you can find video online to fit you needs

15. Has our government chosen the most difficult and expensive solution to the current economic crisis?

This spiraling downward of the economy began3-4 years ago with the rising cost of oil and energy. When we had to begin paying such an amount, we all stopped spending so much, we had to cut back. Now banks have been practicing this type of loaning for some time now, and what gets these young buyers is that they buy into these what I call balloon payments, where you have a certain price each month like 1,000, and you pay this amount for 6-7 years, then at the end of that those payments go up significantly to around 1,500-2,000 a month, and this become a shock to these couples, and they are not making that amount of money to support that type of mortgage payment, because usually the wife is working when they buy and they she stops to raise the children, and when the new payment comes around, one salary just isn't going to make those payments. If these young couples do not obtain a fixed mortgage rate, then they are really screwing themselves, unless they refinance, and then you have lost all p[principle that you have paid in. But the banks let these couples do this because they make huge amounts of money financing this way.

16. How does federalism keep government closer to the people? Is state government necessarily more responsive to t

Not always. In fact, having the system of federalism allowed civil rights activists to file federal lawsuits (such as brown versus board of education) because they knew that filing state lawsuits would never get them anywhere. On the other hand, state government has a hand in much of the governance that touches individuals on an every day basis such as policing, local government, roads etc.

17. How do we replace our government without being hung for treason?

Option 1: vote. Option 2: armed rebellion. The only way to avoid hanging with this option is to win.

18. What was the main difference between the Colonial Government and the Responsible Government?

The main difference is that the responsible government Executive Councils were chosen by the Legislative Assembly. The Legislative Assembly is basically the peoples representatives, so the Executive Council was chosen by the people's representatives. I hope this answers your question :-)

19. What does a business or government agency need to consider before transferring a nonindigenous species?

it needs to consider how that species will be received in the new country by the country's indigenous species. In other words, will the non-indigenous species bring a new strain or type of disease, will it prey on other species in the host country and to what extent, will it adapt to the climate of the host country. In addition, how fast will it take to reproduce in the host country and will this wipe out other species' territories.., etc.

20. How can I get a government job that allows telecommuting?

Here is a link http://www.washingtontechnology.com/online/1_1/24664-1.html which will be useful to you, and the extracts from it are as follows :- The interim rule implements a provision of the Services Acquisition Reform Act of 2003, which requires that contractors be allowed to telecommute as they work on contracts from executive agencies The interim rule, which goes into effect today, says agencies generally cannot discourage a contractor from allowing its employees to telecommute. It says an agency cannot include in a solicitation a requirement that prohibits telecommuting unless the contracting officer has determined in writing that the requirements of the agency cannot be met if telecommuting is allowed
