	Homelessness, &quot;Showing&quot; as Petition to Government, and Redress of Grievances
	</title>
	<description>
	Amendment I of the Bill of Rights reads: &quot;Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress ...

	Sorry: 'greed as good' for the few = 'pursuit of fear' for the many
	</title>
	<description>
	Sorry about length, I've found that brevity tends to breed ambiguity.<br />
Thank you for clarifying that you did mean humans.<br />
<br />
Greed has been taken to such an extreme in our current times that it appears it's undermined both our democracy and our republic (i.e., election fraud machines and the best go...

	How do the finances for such an arrangement work?
	</title>
	<description>
	 I've read that the IRS has said that people who barter are liable for the market value of their trades from a tax liability standpoint.  <br />
<br />
In this type of case, labor (cooking, cleaning; or ranch and farming) is traded for a tangible good (food, room and board), yet, the person receiving the tang...

	What I don't understand is why my country, the U.S.,

	 needs to have 'an enemy'.  From what I've been able to tell from reading a little history, civilizations have always practiced &quot;inward peace and outward violence,&quot; to use Durants' words to the best of my recollection.<br />

With the police state mentality where citizens are the enemy that's been in ef...

	It seems that the parent companies and subsidiaries want to be considered one company for some purposes but many companies for other purposes.  <br />

This is like a human deducting the stockmarket losses of another person he claims to own.  Reminiscent of slavery, but practiced with money.  Another an...
