Why did the Congress take another pay raise while the country is in an economic depression?

November 1st, 2011

Chronos asked:


IMO, it is typical of our ruling elite. Those people are so disconnected that they have no idea at all of what their “constituents” are facing. View Obama lolling on yet another tropical vacation while “his” people starve and freeze in the Chicago winter.
While the phrase “let them eat cake” is historically inaccurate, it does convey the proper sentiment.
What is _your_ opinion?

What are the conditions for getting a vacation refund from British Petroleum?

October 19th, 2010

Summer asked:


My family was planning a vacation to Destin, Florida starting on the 25 of June and lasting for a week. How can we get a refund from the company- if we can yet. We have insurance on the house that we already paid for (in January or February), but it only applies if someone gets very injured or sick and has a doctors note. Please help if you can.
Sorry, Truthseeker818, but the injury has to be before we leave Illinois.
