Only those with somthing to hide will mind - right ?

All credit card expenses for federal to local politicans will now be published in the news papers

If there is nothing to hide then the politicans won't mind if we the people have a look

From now on all cops will have their internal dicipline record published -

If there is nothing to hide they won't mind

1 billion tax generated from X etc

All salaries of public employee's will be posted at entrances of public buildings - No names just job titles

Example
Desk clerk 28,500
Accountant - 45,000 - 60,000

----------------

Since we the people pay for all those things the knowlede belongs to the public

And again if there is nothing to hide --- then

Why don't Engineers get paid as much as that Doctors or Lawyers?

Is it just me or is the engineering profession considered a joke to all other professions. Don't get me wrong engineers get paid well compared to most other jobs, but it seems like business workers or financial workers get paid more than engineers. Yet I feel like their jobs are far more important and effect more people on a day to day basis. There isn't a single item you can touch that hasn't been designed or optimized without an engineer. Engineers make our cars safe, make our planes fly, make computers work, our roads safe, our buildings strong, etc.

Yes, doctors save lives, treat the ill and needy, but on the whole, their impact on society's future, is small in the sense that they do not make it better than today; they just keep it going. The same applies to lawyers, but again

Questions about law school?

How many yrs does it take to finish law sch after finishing a B.A? What do you do in Law Sch? Do you make a lot of presentations, have debates and mock trials? I ask because I'm kinda shy and know I wouldn't like to do these, but if there're only a few, then I can cope, Do you get loans from the gov't to help pay for it, like how you get loans for undergrad studies? How many yrs is it for law sch? Is it hard to get a job after law sch? Do all lawyers go to court to fight for the defendant/plaintiff? Pls don't laugh, but I don't think I'll want to go to court and talk in front of people, but rather work behind the scences.

Mortgage Question: is it Legit to Offer a Mortgage Broker More Money than he normally Charges!?

Hi,
I am a real estate investor and a landlord. I applied to refinance one of my properties.
The mortgage broker told me and had me sign a document saying his fee is 1% of the loan he is arranging.
My question is:
I worked with him before and he is a great guy! my application is not easy to approve and I really want to compensate him for the effort if successful. Is it legit to offer him 2% of the loan instead of the 1% he mentioned? I obviously don’t want it to look like blackmail or something but… I really want to pay him more for the service! is it legit/legal to pay him

Is anyone here familiar with Nova Scotia Maintenance Enforcement & what happens if the payer is on parole?

My ex was incarcerated for appx. 6 mos. & is now on parole & working.
I haven't received any child support for almost a year, even though he has a garnishee in place for any money the federal government owes him.
If he's working and on parole I would assume that the job has to be legit (not a cash job)...so why wouldn't any support be coming through for my daughter?
I'm in the process of writing to Maintenance Enforcement...but I know very little about his situation other than what I've learned from someone in his family.

So...the main question is "Does the maintenance enforcement program have the right to check the criminal court records to locate this man & find out exactly where he's working?"

I'm just wondering this.

-How does it work?
-Do janitors and doctors make the same salary?
-Are people allowed to leave the country?
-How does their education system work... are there universities?
-Would students alllowed to participate in student-exchange programmes?
-Why would someone study further if they will only make the same salary doing a job you don't need a diploma for?
-Is the population of the country content about living in a communist country?

Sorry for my ignorance... I'm 19, and trying to learn more.

Mainly because in my class at school, some guy (copying michael moore) said that we should try to reform our health care system to be like Cuba's. In my mind I thought: perhaps there are so many doctors there because they aren't allowed to leave?

Starting salaries for travel agents are around $ 18,000 to $ 25,000 a year. After they have some experience, agents generally make between $ 30,000 and $ 35,000 a year. Those with many years of experience often earn around $ 45,000 to $ 50,000 a year. Some senior agents—usually those who move into managerial positions or who run their own travel agencies—can earn $ 75,000 a year, or more.

Anaesthesia awareness - why use a paralytic?

According to a 2004 US study, approximately 1-2 in a thousand patients who undergo general anaesthesia in the US (this amounts to 20,000-40,000 people, out of a total of 20 million who undergo GA each year) will experience "anaesthesia awareness"; becoming conscious during surgery, and in 42% of cases feeling the pain of the procedure.

Because a paralytic is administered routinely as a part of GA, patients who experience anaesthesia awareness are unable to notify the surgeons of their pain, and are essentially tortured (albeit accidentally) during the operation.

My question is this - why is a paralytic so necessary that this risk would be taken for it's sake? The only thing I can think of is to suppress reflex movements that could interfere with the procedure, but it seems that

Hi all, so in about a month I have to do a deviated septum surgery for my nose. Besides that, my nose is crooked a bit in general and has always been like that. Usually most people that go into deviated septum surgeries and get some reconstructive surgery done at the same time because the surgeon is already cutting cartilage and reconstructing the septum anyways so it is simple to do it at the same time since its essentially the same procedure.

My specialist told me that since my nose is asymmetrical and has grown crooked it will be near impossible to completely straighten it perfectly, but there will be a significant improvement.

Troubles waking up, How to make it easier?

(I asked in the health section, but no responses,,maybe you wives, girlfriends, mothers, and fiances out there have some insight)

For the past year and half I've been with my boyfriend, and have become fed up with how heavy a sleeper he is. Well, I'm not fed up, but I'm searching for solutions to making it easier for him to wake up.

Do you think Australia is racist to Whites?

I think it's ridiculous that the Aboriginal people of Australia are in a whole different category when it comes to parenting payments, unemployment payments, government housing and the list goes on. How can Australia be a fair, equal country when the races are still divided? The system is obviously not working because VERY rarely do you see an Aboriginal in a proffessional career such as a doctor, teacher, lawyer, chemist, nurse ect despite being given the advantages and more oportunties to attend university at a reduced rate just for being Aboriginal. I saw a job in the paper that said only indiginous people can apply. If it had said only white people could apply there would of been an uproar! Do you agree? (Don't say I'm racist because I'm not.

Unpaid Body Corporate Fees?

Hi, I recently purchased an appartment, and shortly after settlement I received an invoice from the body corp, should should amounts owing from settlement date, and also amounts in arrear prior to settlement date. I had paid the amount owing from settlement date and advised body corp that I will not be paying the amounts in arrear as they occured before settlement due to the previous owner. However, they threatened me with legal action if I did not pay the outstanding amount.

When will Obama wake up?

Obama has surrounded himself with the same types of people that are shelling for the special interests on Wall Street. As a result we have seen no regulations from the regulators, no oversite, no accountablity and so on. Obama's GOT TO WAKE UP and get rid of these advisors that are nothing more than yes men & women for Wall Street.

Obama is nothing more than the Banks puppet on string that does their bidding.

Obama has got to wake up and he should be the one dictating to the Banks not the other way round.

Australian Law. Is it possible to appeal against a conviction on grounds of ignorance & non-intent?

10 years ago airport customs found a 100g piece of cheese in my briefcase that I had forgotten I had put in there. I was charged under the AQIS act etc. Appeared in court fined and got a conviction. Yes it was ONLY a piece of cheese, but dairy is one of the most prohibited of all foods.

Can I appeal to the court , to have my conviction stricken? How would I go about it ?
My argument is that is hardly a crime, much less of wilful intent. I paid the price and learnt my lesson, it cost me $ 1500 all up in court / legal fees. Why should I have this conviction for the rest of my life.
I cannot afford a lawyer at this stage.

Why no incentive for us?

Dear Mr. Howard,

I work hard and pay my taxes, so does my wife. We have no children (not by choice) so no child support benifit to us.

We don't have a mortgage so no tax break there.

We pay for private health care $ 320 per month and all we get back there is 30% rebate paid after July 1 and we also pay for medicare with is 1% of our salaries, - we don't go to a bulk billing practice so we are $ 35 out of pocket for each doctors visit.

I do have to buy over $ 200 worth of medicine per month to keep alive, so I have to spend over $ 1000 to start getting cheaper PBS medicines, so I'm still paying for medicines,
so I don't become a burden on society.

Is success genetic, or learned?

I often find myself wondering why some people can be so talented, or create success so easily, while others always have to struggle for their aspirations. Specifically, I refer to academics, though I suspect this argument can be applied to a variety of situations. For example, I did not go to university after high school, and nowadays earn a modest salary in a middle management position in the retail sector. However, a girl that I graduated high school with is now a resident in an emergency ward, for a large, metropolitan hospital. We were friends in school, and whenever I see her now (as sporadic as that may be), I can't help but think how similar we are. We share the same opinions, sense of humour, and personal interests.
