  If an artist has enough clout to get it, I say OK! If, on the other hand, artists depend more on the station's play for recognition, acceptance and sales, then I think the station is in the catbird seat and may not have to pay at all. Take it a…

  That may be the "easy way out", but it's a coward's cop-out. Stay alive, face the consequences, PAY in Dollars, Euros, Yuan, Yen or in jail time. That way, one will have the possibility of making amends, reimbursing theft or "paying a debt to society". Suicide is basically sociopathic and…

  IF they have to pay for an extra seat it is on;y proper for the overweight person to HAVE that extra seat. No fair putting someone else in it. IF that happens, the charge for the extra seat should be refunded. The airlines should also make sure that the extra…

  I believe that Japan is a high-stress society. Far be it from me to suggest that Japan should make drastic changes but, that being said, Japan should make psychological help easily available in the form of anger management hot lines. Group therapy for people who are "stressed out" is a…

  Charge them? Yes! Condemn them? OK. Sentence them? I don't think the International Criminal Court should sentence them . . .UNLESS it can carry out the sentence.

  All fine, well and good. However, I believe we ALL have our priorities a bit skewed. The BEST teachers should be rewarded most handsomely, thereby making teaching the most sought after profession. The world would benefit from this.

  This is not without precedent. Jesus told a parable of workers who were hired early in the day and who endured the heat of the day and workers who were hired near evening. The master of the field paid them all the same. When the workers who bore the heat…

  It's not for me, but neither is homosexuality. I believe traditional heterosexual marriage LAWS exist for the benefit of children engendered by the marriage. But people cannot often change their nature or their skin color [for instance]. If same-sex marriages do not destabilize the society, who am I to decry…
