what do you gain from distroying someone's reputaton?

I suppose you get some kind of smug satisfaction or a feeling of vindication if this person had wronged you.\n\nYou may also get a slander or libel lawsuit as well.

No, I don't bash anything or anyone. I have my views, but bashing may make your self-esteem feel higher, but what does that say for you as a person?

If someone breaks laws controlling campaign contributions they can receive legally punishment as long as the statute of limitations has not expired.  \n\nThat said, the politician who refunds such moneys is making a marketing statement, demonstrating that they support the laws and are above such incentives.  If that were really so, they would not have accepted such funds (legal or not).  Those who lay down with dogs get up with fleas.

This councellor explained to me that you cannot change the "things" that happen to you or people's attitudes towards you.\nThe only thing you can change is how you react to it, your own attitude. If that changes, then people in return, will readjust.\nSo if you are doing the rights things for you to FEEL balanced and happy, people will sense it and react accordingly.\nEasier said than done but I have tested the approach and it works - never perfectly, or requires time, but there is truth in this.\n(For instance, act happy to feel happy -don't overdo it though)\nGood luck

you laugh out loud because someone played a frank on you and you just learned that someone tricked you.  you want to do that to other persons to have "revenge".

Almost never because I am an extremely thankful person.\nBut when someone is making fun of someone else or is trying to break me down I go off on them to let them know they are not as superior as they think. I always make sure to point out what I know they are most self conscious about.

Hypothetically, you had to do something to &!$$ him off.  I've had people give me the lamest excuse for a threat (usually because they can't beat me up because they're fat) "My (distant relative) is in the Mafia!"  But if you were threatened, technically, join the witness protection program.

Yes, they get benefits. They steal people's identities and ss #s as well.

well u can make a difference in ur own small way.\nbut its not going to be an easy task mind u.\n\nfor eg.\nstop bribing ur postman (he wont like it one bit and u may face irregularity in receiving ur letters but then eventually others will follow ur lead and finally with ur persevearance u can make the postman mend his ways)\n\nstop bribing the telephone lineman(same logic as above)\n\nnext time u get pulled over by a cop and he agrees to let u off for some small amount, pay the full fine and insist on getting a receipt.\n\nafter all why should u pay him for ur fault pay the government.\n\nwell there are a number of such acts by which u can help end corruption,\n\nbut remember its not gonna be easy

This is more of a cynical than logical answer.  It is important if proving the invalidity of (whatever) benefits your own (whatever).

It depends on how much money you have. I have seen far too many innocent people punished because of poor representation.  Good Luck!

if you caused it, you aren't entitled to anything.\nask for enough money to go back to school and learn how to spell

Well, of course that's true.  Furthermore, anytime you accidentally feel inferior (it can creep up rather stealthily if you don't have solid ego legs beneath you) just pause and imagine the person who made you feel that way sitting on a toilet, groaning one out.  Don't know about you but taking a crap is the great equalizer...and nobody makes it look more elegant or wealthy or lovely than anybody else.  Really.  It works.  Even with snooty salespeople.  You'll see, you'll laugh.\n\nThat people can do it doesn't mean they should and to respond to someone else who suggested that she probably allows someone to do that I will maintain to you that she did not invite their high handed attitude with her.  Caring what loved ones think of you is not the same thing as allowing someone to make you feel bad about yourself because they seek to feel better about themselves.

What goes around...comes around.\n\nDon't do anything bad, or wish anything bad to anyone.  Just wait and see what happens.  Nobody really gets away with anything.\n\nI have seen it over and over.  Someone does something that they think is no big deal, like stealing office supplies from work, then they get a broken windshield from a pebble or a traffic ticket or a root canal.\n\nIt could be fate paying them back.  The penalty is usually way more than what they thought they got away with.

No, they don't win anything.  \n\nThe only thing bashing can do is make it easier to be violent again.  Once a person has crossed that threshold and become violent, they start to desensitize to it.  It gets easier and easier until they become a small, hateful, violent, narrow minded, bigoted jerk and an embarrassment to all of humanity. \n\nand by the way, the are 100% wrong.

a very subjective question here!  the answers will vary from one end of the spectrium to the other.  so for myself, one politician is about as good as the next, you can't count on them doing anything that wont benefit someone that can't benefit themself.

Are you kidding me, repukes are all about greed, do onto others because you can. If you get one answer that Rush Limbaugh hasn't already said, I would be amazed.
