Competition between socioeconomic classes: rich, middle-class and poor. It occurs most often in capitalist countries where politicians use it to get votes, by enacting legislation that supposedly puts one class at an advantage over the other. For example, liberals and Democrats in the United States often use the words TAX CUTS FOR THE RICH as an excuse to not support a tax cut of any kind to anyone, while Republicans complain that high taxes are burdensome for the rich and owners of small business (middle-class). In the Presidential election of 2008, Democrat candidate Barack Obama accused his opponent, Arizona Senator John McCain, of owning too many homes while McCain charged Obama of being out of touch with middle-class, middle American ideals. Politicians also utilize class war in an effort to promote universal healthcare, claiming it will help the poor and put everyone at an even playing field, but conservatives claim it will create burdensome taxes on the rich. Class warfare is also seen in corporate America as lower paying employees or members of unions sometimes protest what they perceive as unfair business practices of rewarding corporate executives with big bonuses, excessive raises and inflated salaries, while the lower paying middle-class workers are forced to accept pay cuts and job losses and concessions. The redistribution of wealth is another example where the rich are forced to surrender more of their earnings in higher taxes and give them to the poor. Another example is found in welfare, that gives money to the poor.

Get the class warfare mug.Lying under oathe. What got Bubba Clinton impeached while President. It had NOTHING to do with an adulterous affair with his intern, Monica Lewinsky. His impeachement was ENTIRELY Constitutional because the U.S Constitution lists pergery among "high crimes and misdeameanors" because it can get you thrown into jail.
Perjury is stupid and can get you thrown in jail. Just tell the truth, because the truth will eventually come out anyway. Save yourself further embarassment.

Get the perjury mug.1. The current place where Jesus has his thrown, next to God the Father. According to Christianity, the place of everlasting peace and joy with Jesus as a reward for our faith and repentance. Jesus called it “paradise” while on the cross. Jesus dwelt there with God the Father before coming to the earth and returned after completing his earthly ministry. The Bible calls the heaven of the future the New Jerusalem that will be on planet Earth for Jesus and his followers. It will be a city of 1,500 cubic miles composed of streets of gold, a sea of glass, mansions, numerous fruit trees, Christ’s throne and overhwhelming joy and fellowship with Christ. The foundations and walls of the city will be composed of numerous gems. The scriptures say that Christ’s followers will be able to go back and forth from the New Jerusalem to the Earth. We,as mortal human beings, cannot fathom its beauty. Only God the Father and Jesus know what it will look like.

After his resurrection, Jesus spoke of our reward in heaven when he said "I go to prepare a place for you. When I come again I will receive you unto myself, that where I am, there you will be also.

Get the heaven mug.The time of year from June to August when you have a lot of weddings, college kids go home to their summer job and the kids go to summer camp. And for the dumber kids, they have to go to summer school.

Get the Summer Vacation mug.A bitter woman who thinks all men are scum without reason, and hates a man just because he is of the male gender. It’s often the result of an important male figure in her life hurting her emotionally.

Get the man hater mug.The overall attitude is haughtiness with hypocritical and epitomous social abuse. Many of the people are generally good-looking with well kept bodies (thanks to the miracles of plastic surgery) and are active in the outdoors. The people are fake: bodies are more important than the person‘s spirit and character because they believe you are what you look like, as if you were a character in the movies. The people are fake with fake boobs, fake lips, fake cheeks and fake eye lashes. L.A is the “plastic surgery capital” of the world. Making money, partying and sex is the meaning of life. If you are shallow, arrogant, superficial, materialistic, and have a good body (even if a fake one), think that life is meaningless other than partying (just look at the corrupt Hollywood culture), you'll do well here. If you are looking for a meaningful life filled with good relationships and want to raise a family like me, forget about it. Moving from the Midwest to California may be very difficult for you, due to the culture shock.
The social structure is extrmely corrupt despite their belief of progress and openess: the government is corrupt, schools are corrupt and the police are corrupt. Californians like to think they are progressive and compassionate, but California is not compassionate by any means. The homeless situation is the worst of any state and even being homeless is almost a crime. If you are a Republican or Conservative and appreciate family values, you will be outcast from much of the population, except in Orange County. You can thank the extreme liberalism coming from Hollywood and the Bay Area for that. They think they are progressive, when in fact all they like to do is put in their ignorant two cents. They talk the talk, but can’t walk the walk. You cannot find a more hypocritical culture anywhere.
Californians think their state is the most beautiful in the world (and there is plenty of serenity in the state) and that no other place of natural beauty exists on this planet, and that they are crime-free. What hogwash. Yes, California is very beautiful state with deserts, mountains, beaches and forests. But between all that, California leads the nation in almost everything bad: violent crime, illegal immigration, a growing prison population, drugs, air pollution and an out of control cost of living. So much so that many of its residents are starting to jump ship and move to other states.

California is NOT what it's cracked up to be. I always wanted to live here as a child. I moved here last year and am ready to return to the Midwest because I don’t fit in here: I am Conservative, a registered Republican (even though I vote for the person and not the party), a family man, don’t care about material wealth, have only an average car and an average physique (God forbid). This place sucks for me. I will NEVER bitch about Chicago again and can’t wait to return. CALIFORNIA SUCKS!!

Get the California mug.Let’s get these common misconceptions straight:
1. Hoosiers as its people are called are NOT all hicks, like ignorant morons from the coasts think. Indiana has no more hicks than any other state. Hoosiers are average people who live in small towns, sizeable communities and their suburbs. But the hicks it DOES have are in the far southern third of the state, mostly south of Bloomington. Its 6 million residents are for the most part conservative but not anymore backwards than anywhere else. In fact, Carmel and the rest of Hamilton County, just north of Indianapolis, is very posh and among the richest areas in the Midwest and one of the fastest-growing counties by population in the country. Indianapolis is the capital and 12th largest city in the country while Gary is a black, crime-ridden hole and among America’s worst cities. Indianapolis is vibrant and progressive, generally speaking and more so than most large Midwest cities (except Chicago). It has spent billions of dollars revitalizing its downtown and has become the poster-child or urban revitalization. It is the fastest-growing metro area in the Midwest and Indiana is the fastes-growing state in the Midwest by population.
2. There IS more than corn in Indiana. Other agricultural products include soybeans (#3 in the country), mint, tomatoes, swine and poultry. Forests cover much of southern Indiana. Indiana has more covered bridges than any state, mostly in the south.
3. It is NOT part of the Rust Belt, like Michigan or Ohio. Much of Indiana lies too far south to be considered, with the exception of Gary.
4. Indiana is considered and industrial state. It is the country’s leader in steel production, centered in Gary, but the production of transportation equipment is its largest economic activity. It is the nation’s leader in the production of recreational vehicles (Rvs), engines, truck bodies and manufactured housing, a.k.a, modular homes. Indiana is an important state for the auto industry for this reason. GM, Ford and Chrysler used to be the big players but have since been replaced by the Japanese: Toyota, Honda and Subaru. Indiana is also the national leader in the production of musical instruments, caskets and urns (ironically centered in Batesville).
5. Indiana isn’t ALL flat. About 30% of the state has large hills: mostly in southern Indiana. Brown County is probably the most scenic location in the state. Marengo and Wyandotte caves are some of the largest caves in the country.
6. Yes, there is a town called French Lick (Larry Bird’s hometown). Go ahead, laugh. As if your state doesn’t have towns with funny names. Other funny names include Gnaw Bone, Beanblossom, Santa Clause, Shipshewana, and Mishawaka.
6. No matter how you look at it. It’s still better than Kentucky.

Indiana is a very average and desent state to live in. Maybe not as popular as California or Florida, but sure as hell better than the likes of Michigan, those inbred Southern states, including Kentucky and those prarie states.
