Americans Falling Prey to Online Dating Scams

Americans have been warned by the US government consumer protection agency to be more careful and always on lookout for online dating scams. The warning was given on Tuesday. Due to extensive study done by the agency, the US government consumer protection agency have come up to a fact that Americans have been an easy target for this type of scam.

Less peanuts and Cracker Jacks, more food and electricity.

Taking the family out to the ball game used to be doable, until it started costing as much as a car payment. Major athletic team franchises, and the cities that bankroll their expenses, are seeing their sports profits dwindle right along with many other costly entertainment diversions.

The Amber Haze

So much is made about the failing of American politics that one could be led to believe there's another, better system functioning somewhere else in the world. But, taken with its benefits, and the ability of politics as a tool of competent American governance, we could do a lot worse.

All About Sports

Sports: best sources of enjoyment and fitness! If you want to be fit and active and want to get refreshment time to time, sports are just right for you. You really have a broader line of such activities which bring instant pleasure and enthusiasm in your life. Let us talk about such games in more depth!

Once upon a time stupid behavior was just that, stupid behavior. It was protected by the U.S. Constitution. For example, if I want to put my hand on a stove burner do I have that right? If I want to wear striped pants and polka dot shirts, can I? If I want to jump off the roof off my house, do I have the right to do this? Do I have the right to be stupid or don’t I?

Call me stupid, but apparently, my right to be stupid is being abridged like all other rights. It seems that my personal behavior is the target of the government. For example, if I want to smoke, (I don’t), but if I want to smoke, I am taxed, limited in where I can smoke, barred in my car or house, if it is within 100 yards of someone who ostensibly is allergic, I can be penalized. I thought I owned these things. I thought I had the right to be stupid.

The anti—pleasures Nazis have determined that it is my responsibility to assuage their guilt over my behavior. Now, don’t get me wrong, I am not suggesting that smoking is good. But, what the hell happened to my right?

Don’t believe, what about my right to eat as many quarter pounders with cheese, fries and chocolate shake as I want? Why are they, the APN, sticking their noses in my go container? If eating cheeseburgers is so bad, why don’t they outlaw them? Thank God they are not going after my Saturday night pizza.

The point of this is to point out the obvious intrusion of the state and federal government into areas that they have no business being. In an article in today’s news, locally 112 people were cited over the past weekend for driving without their seatbelt on. Yes, it is stupid. It is illegal. My question is why? Do those people have the right to be stupid? Besides themselves, who are they hurting by not wearing their seatbelt?

Yes, wearing seatbelts saves lives. I will be the first to acknowledge this. But if someone wants to be stupid, what right of the state or federal government is it to demand they not be stupid, and if they persist, fine them for being stupid?

My name is David Olson that is my opinion, thanks for listening

So many things we do each day are now regulated by the government, why?
