People who look upon their work as a punishment for who they are and where they stand in the world, rather than as a opportunity to see themselves as they really are.

So we're actually being punished credit-wise for the common-sense strategy of living in a short-term rental, waiting for a great deal, and being ready to move fast when it comes.

Small businesses are being stifled, lending is being hindered rather than helped by government involvement, the current uncertainty is discouraging job creation as well.We can't continue to encourage a welfare state and then hinder economic growth by punishing those that create wealth and pay taxes.

The judge loved the idea, and along with the punishment he placed him on probation and the court will also be monitoring his attendance in school.I'm actually hoping to spend a little time with the kid and teach him a little bit about tough love.

We are all people with a variety of belief systems, and each believes they are right in their own eyes.Absolutely agreed...At the same time, let's encourage Christians to stop telling Muslims and other non-Christians that they are going to hell if they don't change their belief system...For those of us who are not religious, it's very easy to see why there is so much conflict among religions -- everyone thinks that they right and the rest of the world is not only wrong, but deserves to be punished for being wrong.

And even though they face great punishment, they will color on the walls with their crayons.If the parents clean up after the kids, then you shouldn't have too big of a problem here.BTW, if they leave crayon marks, a magic eraser will take them off no problem.

Guns must be locked and inaccessible to any child under 18.The Government would have the right to come and inspect that you are storing your gun safely away from accessibility to children and fine is punishable for up to 5 yrs. in prison.Go to the website and take your pick of many options to read this.http://www.opencongress.org/bill/111-h45/text
