I suggest a chill pill.

 

Or perhaps a look at the thread of attractive teachers in Thailand. Please try something.

 

Rooster

 

 

Exactly what has the attractiveness of teachers to do, with any of this?

"“The best solution to mitigate air pollution is to cut down pollution emission at its source,” Manoj said."

Why does this man not have a Nobel Prize?!

Such profound wisdom!

When this damages tourism then and only then will measures be taken to deal with it. The scale of the problem is such that the countries administrators may need help from elsewhere, and this is not going to be solved overnight

 

Wrong!

Only when tourism is affected, some idiot will go on TV, hold his stupid face into the camera, blubber some nonesense into a microphone, a committee will be put in place ...and 3 weeks later, everything will be forgotten!

They just don't get it and never will, they they are sawing off the branch, they are sitting on!

And when everything has gone to hell in a handbasket, they will blame it on "farang"!

I won't even bother to read beyond the headline of what the 'Democrats' (ha ha ha!) - and especially the coup-enabler, Abhisit - have to say on the future of this nation.

 

They have betrayed the people more than once.

Couldn't have said it better!

Except for, when I was reading the headline, I was  and then refused to read any further!

Is this now the equivalent to the taxi- story?

After every five senseless beatings, forced haircuts or rape- allegation, comes a "one teacher drives his student to school or does something else awesome"- story?

I am sorry but I really can't stand these "jubilation"-stories!

This "...marked the dedication of teachers in Thailand."? 

No- it marked the dedication of ONE teacher in Thailand!

Unless, a teacher who beats up a student or rapes a girl or misses to headcount the children in her/his care and one kid dies in car, "marked the carelessness and mai bpen rai- attitude of teachers in Thailand!" becomes a thing, too!

"...students across the nation will present flowers and garlands and sing songs and chants and perform gestures of high respect to their teachers." 

What became of "respect has to be earned"?

In this country it just bowing to authority because...thainess!

I know, I know...any news -outlet has to write something, to justify it's existence, but this mindless kind of reporting, is getting on my nerves!

Didn't read to all replies and I am sure, someone beat me to it, but....

...that is exactly the level of endorsement, he should get , at best!

The line that WE put in the sand and move, as we like it and see it fit!

California already provides health care for illegal up to 18 years of age. Governor Newsom wants to now expand that to young adults to 26 at a cost of 250 million a year.  Please tell me why as a taxpayer, I should pay for this?  Only one example of the costs of illegals. Who knows the cost of the under 18 year olds per year and the cost to educate them. Ever think about what it costs the school systems just for the programs to teach illegals English in the public schools and how that money could be spent?  The fact is illegals do cost the American tax payer.  Illegals not not pay much in the way of taxes as they are mostly working in jobs that do not have taxes taken out of paychecks.  Most legit companies can't afford to hire illegals and risk getting caught. If Newsom wants 250 million a year just for 19 to 26 year olds, what's it costing for all the other support programs, health care, etc?  If a lousy 5 billion helps stem the flow even a fraction, it's money well spent.  

Okay...you asked for it!

- "Please tell me why as a taxpayer, I should pay for this?" You understand, that a healthy person is a working person, do you?! And a working person is...wait for it...paying taxes! Buying goods! Keeps the economy working! That's why YOU as a part of the community, should pay your share FOR the community! Crazy idea, i know!

- "Ever think about what it costs the school systems just for the programs to teach illegals English in the public schools..." Yes, I do! Do YOU think about, what you get, if people get educated? You get...educated people! Who settle down, fit in, get a good job or -God forbid- even built their own business and put people into jobs...who ALL pay taxes! Ever heard the saying "spend a buck to make a buck"? But instead: eeeewwww...brown people!

- "...and how that money could be spent?" You mean how 5 Billion of that could be spent do build a stupid-@$$ wall? Because THAT money sure could not be spent for more useful things! Right!?

- "The fact is illegals do cost the American tax payer." Citation needed! Where is your evidence for that? Last time I checked, all the experts say otherwise!

- "Most legit companies can't afford to hire illegals and risk getting caught. " you mean...like almost every company, connected to Trump and his family of criminals?

Foot...meet bullet!

Good day, sir!

unemployment is already going down every year consistanly since 2010 so it is normal and not a trump thing.

Accualy figures shows the last y the average number was around 6.3 million unemployed persons so the only thing what did happen is it stayed status quo until now.

 

But wait and see what will happen this y with all those extra taxes he brought in so called to protect the American industry.

 

So don't give him credit for something he didn't do at all.

Actually...that is NOT my quote, you are reacting to!

Just to clear that up!

trump continually puts his foot in his mouth but he gets things done, lower taxes, lowest unemployment rate for years, more african americans in work, then you look at the dems. They elect sub intellect people that have committed fraud and then put her in charge of the US banks, the youngest new member is a total idiot, so many have very little intelligence but have become multi millionaires while "representing" their communities that are falling to pieces, making sure husbands and family have been given massive contracts or over paid, had the govt pay out their sexual dalliances etc. The you get them going off on a jaunt instead of trying to work things out but they did decide to put in millions of dollars to be given to overseas women seeking abortions but refuse to even help their own ex servicemen. Dem states are paying huge taxes to support illegal immigrants(5 billion for a wall is a no no but well over 100 billion to pay for illegal immigrants in the US is fine), one state has offered free medical to the same people but threatened legal action against any poor americans that dont pay their way, yep I can see where all the idiocy is, its one thing to vote for the party you like continuously for years because of what they did in the past but it is entirely another to vote for them when they are destroying your country and you still stand up for them especially when from what I have seen is just the pure hatred of trump for defeating the dem candidate that was even more corrupt, yet try to demean those that voted against her when they are the pathetic ones who are too blinded to see what is happening

 

Wow...I hope, this is sarcasm!

Otherwise: you need to get a reality check and professional help!

Okay...there is so much wrong here...where to begin?

Maybe with this gem, here: "The 6th to 10th year of the strategy will focus on development of rubber quality, research and establishment of a fund to support rubber-related activities."

A fund to support rubber- related activities!!!

Who comes up with that???

Ok, number one, why are so many people just seeming to wake up to the fact that Trump is a lying train wreck? He has been this way since he has been in office. Why in the heck is it just hitting people? 

 

#2 the thing about the paycheck not flowing. There are these things called credit cards. I suppose a mortgage would be hard to pay by credit card but the whole notion of putting food on the table seems a bit odd. I don't mean to monimize their blight but it seems to me if you are having other worldly troubles because you miss one paycheck that is on you to a large extent. Again, credit cards. 

 

 

Ok...number 1...it is hitting nobody!

What the hell are you talking about!

#2: You ARE minimizing their plight!

Have a look at what time we are talking about: Christmas and New years...by far the most expensive dates of the year!

And: will the government take over the interest rates of the credit- cards?

Last time I checked, 1 Dollar on a CC- bill, does not equal 1 Dollar cash!
