Urgent SB 281 Referendum News
Today Governor Martin O'Malley signed into law SB 281. This video seeks to encourage Marylanders to start a referendum. You can go to the following website ...
To many people organizations an politicians are trying to make money by
selling us our 2nd Amendment . This issue has been settled many times
unnecessary. We need one law for all states and their is it is called the
2nd Amendment. If you want to argue constitutionality . Then the Affordable
health care has been ruled unconstitutional (it is a tax) without
representation it was drafted by Obama's request to make a law. The
president doesn't have the authority to make or pass laws. Congress only
By all means, seek the signatures to get it on the ballot, any chance is
better than no chance. But know this; when I went to the voting booth this
past election, they didn't ask me for my voter registration card, they
asked me for my ID. I personally don't think it's even a matter of having
enough votes in MD because this system is corrupt period. Remember the vote
to ammend the bill that first passed, then got revoted after a good ol'
fasion vote whip and then failed?
Maryland is mostly Democratic, and a lot of the concentrated population in
the Baltimore area would vote specifically along their Democratic party
lines. Also, if the bill goes to referendum, then the governors office will
word the question in a way to make it confusing. Maryland is not a state
where I want the people voting for my God given rights. Too many uninformed
people in this Blue state.
No we should'nt just wait to do battle in the courts where we have to
attack SB 281 one part at a time, we stand a better chance with a
Referendum now then a slow drawn out court battle later.
Don't waste your time on a referendum when we don't have the votes to
overturn it if it goes to the polls. Get the bill to go to court because we
have a better chance there.
Good luck from Kentucky. I hope that you make progress with this.

Paying Tuition in $1 Bills.mov
CU economics major Nic Ramos is planning to pay his $14, 300.51 in out-of-state tuition in one dollar bills.
while it's a good thing for the student to realize really how much money he
was throwing around, i agree that the stunt probably will make no
difference at the school. there are many things that need to be payed with
that tuition money besides the immediate ones you think of. not only that,
i'm highly unimpressed by the quality of this video. it seems to be a very
low-key production with noise in the background, you don't get to hear the
questions asked, and the cuts were not very well done.
@sjaffe Yes, that would be good, but there aren't 14 banks in most areas,
there may be 14 branches or 4 or 5 banks, but $1000 in singles triggers a
watch at say Ban of America. So you go to 3 BoA and you are questioned. So
let's see: BoA, Chase, PNC, BB&T, CitiBank, SunTrust... after these, you
are on the Fed watch for seeking singles (you happen to be profiled as a
drug dealer or some nefarious type). Most banks have a $50 to $100 limit
unless you have a business account. 140 banks, not poss

@WoshJills you're smarter, ha? I finished my university in my country in
Europe free, I came here and took the job of your kids as a software
engineer. Oh, I forgot, they don't like real science, then gool luck to
them. But still my friends legas immigrants took some of the economics jobs
too. And they have no loans either. It is good to be clever. The sad case
is when temporary immigrants from india came here, get their PhD and they
are still paid by Univ then they return in their country.
@TheLastBrainLeft And why should universities be driven by a profit motive?
Try Dartmouth if you are looking for an example of predatory capitalism.
"Vice president for alumni relations at Dartmouth, said there is an
organized effort to bring politically conservative leadership to Dartmouth.
In recent years, conservative media voices -- including the National Review
and the editorial page of the Wall Street Journal -- have lent their
support to the Big Green's outsider trustee candidates.
This is wonderful. I recently refused to take out any further loans for my
education and still have two years left on my degree. Now I'm cutting costs
everywhere just to make my payments, which are around $1,400 a month. I
hope this does bring attention to the rising cost of school, and great job
for making school go right, no matter what. Non-college attendees may not
have student loans or debt to pay but they also don't get the amazing life
experience that is college education. - Lindsay
I don't want to go to college. I do and I don't. I love to learn, but I
hate the pressure. I would love to make an investment in myself, but it's
not an investment; biochemistry, biology, psychology, and humanities majors
have a hard time finding jobs. The only way to be guaranteed a job anymore
is to go into some kind of engineering program, with tons of math and
physics. I'm really starting to question whether university is worth the
stress, time, and money. So is college even
While you weren't paying attention predatory corporations took over your
universities and they are running them like banks now. The corporation
kicked out the "deadbeat" liberals and now are populated by ex-Big Business
types who are scamming whats left of the middle class for all they are
worth. They will empty your bank accounts to give you whats left of the
American dream while they go to China with their jobs. Wake up kids, trust
your common sense. something is wrong here.
$14,000?? That's puny. Why is he complaining when he's paying so little,
even for a public school? Does he realize that most high-tier private
schools make you pay triple that amount? I mean Carnegie Mellon tuition is
$50,000!!! Yes, the tuitions ARE expensive, but they, in turn, help build
the school's reputation through improved education and research, which help
you earn more money throughout your career! That's why state colleges can't
match the rigor of private schools!
Just gonna throw this out there guys, he never said this was a protest. He
said this is a message. Rather than seeing numbers on a screen he is
showing the powers that be, This is what you are asking of many of your
students. Do you really think this makes sense? Might there be a way to be
a bit more feasible? He is affecting change in a less tried manner, and
believe it or not, he is doing it calmly, rationally, and with minimum
disruption. How dare he, eh?
The thing is... $14,300 isn't very high when it comes to university
tuition. It's true that CU Bolder is a public university, but as they said,
$65 per hour of class, when you take into consideration the professor's
salary, the salaries of faculty such as cleaning staff and library staff,
facilities maintenance, etc., it doesn't seem too bad. I attend a private
university, which costs upwards of $46,000 per semester. I should try
getting that in singles.
@sjaffe On a second note: I elieve he is doing a good thing. I know most
colleges and universities have endowments that, even with this down
economy, could pay for 50% of their students tuitions and still make enough
in their endowment to continue this every year. Yet they continue to hike
their tuition and they expect the government to give them handouts and tax
breaks. This is a voyer world. The guy does a thing and videos it. You
don't have to watch.
I think he probably has never had to work a day in his life. If he had he
would know that dumping this huge mess on someones desk is not a good way
of protesting. I feel horrible for the people in the office. This is what
happens when you have never had a real injustice happen to you in your
life. Please grow up and shut up. Writing a letter to your congressman
would have been more effective. Or do the world a favor and dont go to a
for profit college.
Let me get this straight. You do all you can to get good enough grades to
get into a college. you searching around for the best college for the
amount of money you can afford. And then you insult that college by doing
something stupid that sends no message about anything other than what a
douche bag you are ? I think the only clear message here is clearly you
deserve a refund because your education level is no more than that of a
fifth grader !
Too bad the only people you affected by this whole stunt was hard working
tellers at your bank and innocent people working in your school's business
office. You made their job 100x harder so you can get your 2 minutes of
attention. You prove nothing by this except you are a big clown. Try
writing a letter next time to your school's president and stop wasting
people's time.....or is that too boring and won't land you on CNN?
A.) It's not his money he's using. C.) He's a Sophomore - meaning he's
lived in-state for two years! You know why he is still paying out-of-state
tuition? Because his parents claimed him as a dependent on their taxes that
they pay in a different state. They don't pay taxes in Colorado, so they
should fuck off. It wouldn't be so damn expensive if he would be a man and
support himself instead of living off of mommy and daddy.
You're a fucking spoiled brat you dip shit. Fuck you! There are kids who
don't have their fucking parents fucking shit for school and you are
allowed to go to an out of state school? Give me a break. Go fuck yourself.
You wasted a lot of other peoples time. You should be going to an instate
school and save your parents some fucking money you spoiled fuck. And your
body guard is a pussy anyone could take him down.
@sjaffe Actually, yes, getting change at a back does require by federal law
a lot of questions when you want $14k in small bills. That's why they got
$1k bills at the banks. The banks can't give out more than a certain amount
per person per day. That's why they have to go to many other banks and do
this over and over until they get all singles.
I'd be a little more impressed if he was paying for it himself instead of
blowing his parent's money. What can you do with an "Economics Major" these
days? Mommy and Daddy are essentially paying $14K a year for a five year
reprieve from their son who will undoubtedly move back in with them after
graduation and continue to mooch off them.
There's a ton of ways to pay for college: scholarships, grants, payment
plans, subsidized loans, the military. This guys chose none of those routes
because he's too stupid for a full ride, too rich for a grant, too lazy to
work, and too egotistical to get a loan or join the military. He deserves
to pay $14,000.
So he can't protest if he can well afford the tuition? That means white
people can't join the cause against racism against black people... straight
people can't fight for gay rights... you and I can't fight against hunger.
Anybody can pay their tuition via a check. At least he has the balls to
make a statement.
@GangstahGumbo Yeah, let's just eliminate the blood-sucking Kulaks as a
class. They're wealthy, so they're obviously class-enemies. Oh wait, then
Stalin just turned around and murdered 30 million lower-class citizens...
But I guess your version of class-jealousy is MUCH more rational than
Stalin's, right?
Its too damn expensive to get an education these days. Its great you trying
to put a perspective on what its costs to get an education. These big
colleges and even the coumnity ones are RAPING people. From someone who
spent $70,000 for 2 years for a degree he didn't even get to finish, I
SUPPORT YOU!!!!

Students Launch Historic Debt Strike, Refusing to Pay Back Predatory College Loans
Students and activists are taking direct action over what some have called the nation's next financial crisis: the more than $1.2 trillion in student loan debt.
im going to call bullshit on some parts of this. unless the person was
specificly lied to, they knew exactly what they were agreeing to. is it a
scam? yes,BUT they are CHOOSING to participate. college needs to be
restructured i absolutely. she couldve gotten grants or scholarships if
your low income. i do like how she brought up race which wasnt needed.
