Missionary blocks the Treefolk.

Well, I kinda assumed some program would be devised/expanding concerning the regulation of charities if it went this way, but I guess it needed to be said :) Well, there are nationwide ones, like Make-A-Wish and the National Cancer Foundation one(s). But yeah, welfare basically provides an...

Yeah, probably.

I slightly disagree with the caveat that it depends on matching such willing people and the location of jobs. For example, here in Maryland, there is an abundance of jobs in the crab-picking industry. However, there are not a lot of takers locally, I guess because of the nature of the work...

Anyone going?

That kind of testing is already in place and since it's done by the private sector who are concerned with their bottom lines, actually, yes, I think that those owners believe that their employees are using drugs, else they wouldn't need to do it. Now, thanks to whatever Fairness Act there is out...

I'm more agreeable. But again, why just drugs? Why not any misuse? They kinda go together. Drug testing for welfare recipients implies suspicion that they are using drugs (else why the need to test them?) and are using the government money to obtain the drugs (as opposed to other sources of...

And why do you think welfare recipients are using the money for drugs, as opposed to other recipients of government aid? And why is it just drugs as opposed to other misuse?

New dealers spring up to take their place... Frankly, I don't see people's here objection to welfare recipients using drugs. I see their objection to taking supposed "free money" to buy drugs.

Oh yeah, I forgot about that Idol/Amulet of Power. I think the old tribe made the right choice in not using it - the challenge wasn't overly physical (which is probably their greatest collective weakness) and they had a decent shot at it. They should save it for when they're clearly outclassed...

All cards are in the spoiler now.

Forgot this had started... I guess with the hustle and bustle of premier week for TV shows and that I watched it over the weekend made me forget. :) I think the dividing into the old/young tribes is a good idea. I just wish the old tribe had won the immunity challenge to put the young 'uns on...

Forgot these from yesterday: Adam Styborski's article Steve Sadin's article

Once again, because it focuses on just one "free" program, welfare. What about the others? And again, why the assumption that welfare recipients are drug users as opposed to other groups being drug users? And why the focus on "drugs"? There are hundreds of ways to misuse money - again, I...

Are you taking everything? It'll take another turn to gather up the coins on the floor

Yeah, I played Spiders a while back (and won too!). I would like to replay them but no one really responded to my idea of replaying tribes after x time... :(

Umm... I hope not Giant Spiders....

I'm not saying that either. I was saying that the taxpayer will end up paying for those individuals one way or another. I agree, but I think I see a different problem. Minimum wage should be raised to allow someone who works to beat the welfare OR welfare should be lowered. Obviously the...
