Prettier? Are you NUTS! Since when are American symbols judged on their "prettiness." I see why our country is going down the toilet! People are debating over how things look! How about what it stands for? It is a known symbol of racism and intolerance... really "pretty"! So, this DOES make you a REDNECK, ie, a hoosier with no sense of moral responsibility!

Poor to me means many things - some of those things are - a lack of manners and breeding.  Another idea of "poor" are those who shut themselves off from the world, and don't allow anyone in.  All they can do is to wallow in self pity - I see that as being poor - Poor means looking at the color of a human being and deciding because of just a color that a person is good or bad - I find that extremely poor.\n\nPoor is not trying to live the best way one can - not enjoying what the world has to offer, but instead complains and is never content with what one has - while others have to struggle almost every minute of their lives.\n\nPoor means never realizing how rich one is inside.

Hmmm...what sort of sticker are you wanting, my dear?  I'm sure I can find something for you.  ; )\n\nOf course, one would think doing one's duty would be reward enough and just think...if you vote you have a right to complain!

The article below tells quite a few symbols. It's pretty well-written. You have to go down a few paragraphs before it starts listing the symbolism in more detail.

It's actually kind of a nonissue. No one's tried to use that symbol, so it hasn't been added to the list. No one's refusing anything, the paperwork just takes forever and a day to go through. Many symbols aren't on the list yet, like the Christian fish.

It's the symbol for the punk rock band Black Flag. Four rectangles, the 1st and 3rd high, the second and fourth low. Makes him ever more ME-OW to me!

I've seen a tree represent it (with branches) and a triangle (to show checks and balances).  \n\nThis has to be an opinion question, I've never heard of a symbol representing the three branches of govt.\n\n(Maybe the Eagle that has the arrows in its talons -- I think there are three arrows -- maybe that's what you mean.)

Here is a link for you sweety. Mostly, it is a symbol of acceptence, acceptence of everyone's sexual proclivites, so long as they hurt no one, race,creed,sex, everything that make our community so wonderful. Thats just my personal view.\n\nhttp://jasewells.com/gayicons/#rainbow

ॐ is the "om" or "aum" symbol, which represents God, who is graceful.  Ok, that's a stretch, but it's the closest I have.  ;-)

"Poverty" means "the state of having little or no money and few or no material possessions."\n \nOur country has done a great job of almost completely eliminating the true poverty, only to find people redefining it to include more people.  As the standard of living in this country continues to increase, people will adjust their definition of "poverty."\n\nI know a family who has 4 TVs, Satelite, several DVD players & more than enough to eat (the whole family is overweight.)\nThey are "impoverished" because they "can't afford nice clothes, nice cars (they have old cars & hand-me-downs) & other things this modern society now considers necessity.\n\nI think it is not right to use the same word, "poverty", to discribe the family living in a mobile home, buying clothes at garage sales, & eating simple food, like beans & rice, or Spaggetti & meat sauce. This type of family would be considered well-to-do in many places in Mexico! I prefer the phrase "disadvantaged." They need help, but we shouldn't try to act like they are on the same level with those dying of starvation in Africa!\n\nThe poorest people in America are the addicts & mentally ill.  They get caught in a downward spiral until the get the treatment they need, or till they just die on the streets.\n\nP.S.  While some of your stats are telling, some are not.\n . In probably 50% of the country it gets hot enough AC shou not be considered a luxery.\n . TVs & VCRs can be bought at garage sales for $5 so that should not be used to illustrate how they aren't really poor.\n . Cars are required in most areas so people can drive to work & pick up groceries.  And a beaten-up car can be bought pretty cheaply.
