"Marital rape became a crime nationwide in all 50 U.S. states on July 5, 1993. "
Marital Rape: New Research and Directions
This document provides an overview of the research on marital rape including a brief legal history of marital rape; discussion of its occurrence; summary of the effects; and an analysis of practitionersí intervention with marital rape survivors.
"By 1920, the legal doctrine allowing a husband to beat his wife was formally rejected across all U.S. states."
"True systemic protection and criminal enforcement for domestic violence victims did not become widespread until the feminist and domestic violence shelter movements of the 1970s and 1980s."
"Courts and state legislatures began formally rescinding a husband's right to physically chastise his wife in the 1870s and 1880s, with states like Alabama and Massachusetts in 1871 and Maryland in 1882 passing explicit prohibitions."
There's more,but that's bad enough.
DV (domestic violence) is a common thing Behind Closed Doors that people don't like to discuss. But it absolutely happens.@Lanolin, oh,it gets worse.

And if it happens to wives, it will happen to children. So much emotional trauma that takes years of therapy to process.
Why is Texas an anagram of taxes? 
Just a random thought. I have a scrabble mind.

They apologised, but 100 years too late. Those Chinese miners DID pay their tax they were willing to do so as they were hardworking, but the taxes kept going up, and in the end for no good purpose because that govt didn't use that money to spend it on anything good. They just raised the taxes to keep people out.
Entire nations have fallen because of stupid tax laws, and they never tax the rich, only the poor, who can barely afford a living.

The tax only goes to enrich the ones at the top who don't pay.
Roman empire anyone? Division of the Kingdom of Israel when Solomon's sons raised the taxes so they could live in a Palace? Which required phenomenal amounts of upkeep, and was even bigger than the Temple? And just for that family, nobody else.

"The power to tax is the power to destroy" - John Marshall.
And remember today that they can just print all the money they need (creating inflation, which is effectively another form of taxation). Therefore the purpose of income taxes and similar today really is just to keep poor people poor.
People just say the one thing sure in life is death and taxes.
As a child you don't know how this works until you shockingly enter the workforce as a teen or twentyager and realise that the money you earn is not all yours, its taxed even before you receive it, even on minimum wage, and the employers keep all the profits, which are not taxed.
Something is wrong here.

Our Father in heaven FORBIDS loaning with interest. Even your enemies, you should lend and expect nothing in return. Everyone Has created and lived in this Judas world, and the majority stay blind to keep what little happiness they have. Never knowing it is the TRUTH that sets us free. Look up what Jesus said about taking an oath at all, of any kind. Look up what he taught about SAVINGS… In everyway you can think of the devil has gotten his hands upon this system because it is his until Jesus returns.

If you have money you can do whatever and get away with it, but you got to be in their club.
eek
Yes student loans were a bugbear and election issue because the govt would charge interest on them before the law got changed and now they don't.
I don't understand interest on loans, but I learned all about shark loans when I did a money management course. However even that course encouraged predatory behaviour because it wanted you to consider investing in housing property ladder, so you could make capital gains...or commercial property. But I never had enough money in the first place to do so.
Buying a first home is hard enough, who can afford a second? Only those who already have money to play with.
I also learned about origin of credit cards, just a ploy by banks to spend money you don't have...and of course they charge interest when you forget to pay it back each month.
You know most people have zero clue what you are talking about....
You prolly should explain yourself.
I read in the paper today that one of the parties vying for the elections in NZ is proposing all children have free travel. Someone wrote a letter to the editor about this and said no taxpayers are paying for children to have free travel.
Though taxpayers aren't children so...?
Well I don't know how that works because...children do get to travel for free thats what parents are for, they have personal chauffeurs and they might have scooters and bikes they don't have to pay any rego for.
So am not sure what this is all about. Gold card members (all aged 65 and above) get free travel on public transport after 9am each day. I notice nobody wrote to the paper about those sponging old folk that taxpayers are paying for.
