That is mega fail.

I still used to get (until recently) a tax code for a job I left back in '08. And they didn't even know I'd temp worked at another place....even though it was through scheme the government ran...and they gave me a P45 (given by HMRC when you've left a job showing tax paid among other things, needed to apply for jobs/get benefits. HMRC - involved with tax among other things).....Yea I rang them upto sort it, but it's just plain dumb....

The government so need to talk to each other.

Thank you for the rock. It looks pretty.
But I meant that this thread would fit better in the "Debate" section.

No it wouldn't. This thread wasn't meant for whining about conservatives or liberals or whatever. Yin is the only one who has managed to stay on topic.


This thread is to discuss the government failing to operate efficiently.

If you think of how you americans cheered after Osama bin Ladens death (if your not an american, well no offense to you) (I guess it was a clone), Ive started to wonder if not only the government is failing, it seems to be a major part of the american population (no offense). And congrats to Yin for staying on topic, a thing that seems to be harder and harder to achive.

Yeah, the American population isn't all that bright when it comes to things like that. But we still don't have substantial evidence to seriously question Osama's death. You don't have to believe it 100%, but it is very possible that he really did die.

If you did cheer, think of this:
1. Did he do something to you personally?
2. Did he do something to your family?
3. Did he do something to your friends?
If you awnsered "No" at all the questions, you have totally no reason to cheer and is stupid.

I bet the guy that killed Osama dont get prison or something. I mean, Osama was a living being. Show respect for the dead.

Take this and apply it to the the founder of the KKK, Adolf Hitler and Joseph Stalin. See how that works out.

Also, you say that we should act like his death is all serious and we should respect the dead, but you clearly state that if someone's not a friend or family member, their death is not important.

No, I state that if he didnt do anything personally to you (like he hurt you or your family), you certanly shouldnt care if he died. Seriously, the murderer of Osama is now a murderer and was probarly celebrated instead of set into prison. That is acctually wrong in a way.

I care because he was causing far too much trouble. Also, it would have been impossible to capture him alive under those circumstances. If we put people who "murder" in that sense into prison, we wouldn't have an army.

Thats why "armies" and "war" is morally wrong and lawbreaking.

Osama Bin Laden, a man who massacred around three thousand Americans, is a hideous monster, a pustule on the world. Pope Benedict XI, whose statement that "condoms actually cause AIDS" has killed millions, yet he is a hero to two billion Catholics across the world.

I think that deserves a laugh. Ha-ha-ha-haha.

I felt weird when Osama Bin Laden died since everyone was rooting for the death of someone.
But you can NOT blame anyone for celebrating it.
Osama Bin Laden is a terrorist responsible to one of the greatest tragedies our country has suffered since World War II, the depression, etc. He did this without remorse, continued plans to commit terrorism to scare and harm people and is one of the main reasons we're at war when we shouldn't be.
Why the HELL would you even consider throwing his killer in jail when he/she probably prevented many more deaths in the long run and eliminated a huge threat?
Once you cross the line that Osama, Hitler, and all those other evil men in history have, they don't deserve remorse.

OT: I remember my friend complaining about a similar situation to yours, AD-HD. A lot of people are in agreement that the government is failing, but I continue to hope (perhaps naively) that it'll pull itself out of its rut.
