Was The Govering Body Decieved Into Dividing Up The Organization?
by frankiespeakin inwhat if the legal advice that the governing body got to divide up into all those diferent organizations was actually a very clever sceem to take way control from the governing body,, and they fell for it hook line and sinker???
anybody who has been in the legal department at bethel, for just a short time must realize the gb are seriously full of shit.
that's why i think either for selfish reasons or just plane disgust,, some individual or perhaps several individuals could easily play on the fears of the governing body to manipulate them to make huge mistakes, like dividing up into all these different organizations.

That's my thought, taxes. It's better to spread out "donations" over 8 different entities then try to keep the one lump sum under one name.

Do elders/PO's really care?
by buffalosrfree inin 2003 a elder who happens to be the p.o.
of my wife's congregation visited me, a real nice guy, but i knew he had gotten the letter from the borg.
anyway like i said a nice guy he promised to call again real soon that was prior to the memorial of 2003, well the memorialo of 2005 has come and gone and he still hasn't come back to visit.

I believe there are many that care just as I believe there are many that believe they have the "truth." I also believe the higher up go in the "organization" you change from a caring role to a damage control role.

Also, has any other country been successful at what GW Bush is proposing?
Yes, Chile has had a private account system since the min-80's. And right now, same with Galveston, TX. People are retiring and getting more money then they did while still working.

To hell with the poor, the middle class and the rich who think they are entitled to checks from the government.
Sorry, but wrong. That's why I want to new SS format. It's not checks for the Government; it's your own money. That's the beauty of it.
And,
There really are people out there who have no clue, and we will wind up with a society full of welfare receipiants. The gap between the rich
and the poor is getting wider. This plan will make it get wider faster (low income people making less than $8/hour). America needs to get a heart,
It's not a welfare program. It's a retirement supplement. Please stop trying to combine the two. That's why the system is messed up in the first place.

Why isn't the WTS more direct in regards to "apostate" web sites?????????
by integ ini wonder why the wts does not specifically tell its hapless adherents to not go to apostate websites?
references as to what to beware of on the internet seem to be painted with broad strokes.
always first is pornography, then chat rooms.

Here's my take. I believe many of the R&F JW's are almost like children. The GB knows this. With a child, if you tell it NOT to do something, what's the first thing the child does?

OK, I'll bite?..
What happens to people living 75+ years? How much (negative) money will they have?
The SS program is designed to be a retirement supplement, not the only means of retirement. Also if they're that worried about, don't do. The private accounts will be voluntary.
What happens to mentally uncapable people? (people who are just not capable of thinking of money future?)
OK, again, the SS system is set up to be a retirement supplement not a welfare safety net. There are plenty of other social programs for that purpose. Also they don't have to have a private account, it's voluntary; they can stay with a classic SS format.
My 401k plan seems to linger in nadaland, when the financial people promised the world?
Have you tried moving it to a different fund? I keep an eye on my 401k and my IRA, if something starts falling, I move it. Also, again, if your that worried, don't opt for a private account, it's voluntary.
