Anyone on welfare and is able to work SHOULD be put to work to earn those benefits. Heck, if nothing else give them a brush and a bucket of paint and have them paint the center lines down 380.

So whats the answer? Who decides wages and benefits? Whats the value of a persons work? $2 an hour over minimum wage or $20 an hour over minimum wage? Thats where collective bargaining comes in. You beat the working man down far enough into the ground they will just figure welfare has better benefits and payments!

BIG DEAL! ...So did he also go into any Dr.s office in Iowa and lie about symptoms to get any prescription drugs? (which can be done just as easily) This guy needs to be charged with FRAUD!

Good thing alcohol is legal, other wise the story would have been about how many beers are in the fridge. I'll just wait for the next story about a drunk killing someone on the highway....but you wouldn't consider them criminals I bet.

As you have never used weed, I doubt very much you have come in contact with very many people who use it. As far as the idiots you work with and the one idiot across the street, well let me tell you something you don't know, there are idiots that use weed and there are idiots that use alcohol, and there are idiots that use neither. Let me tell you something else you don't know, there are doctors, lawyers, teachers and and very su((essful business people that use it on a regular basis. You have met them and didn't even know it, do you know why? because they didn't tell you about it. And the BS you keep preaching about all weed users are criminals is FAULTS, criminals are criminals, it's who they are with or without the weed.

I am also in my 50's been around the world a couple times or so. I have known and seen plenty of people who use weed and plenty of people who use and abuse alcohol. I have known several people who have died from abusing alcohol (liver). I have also seen plenty of bar fights and obnoxious drunks. Not sure what planet you are from, but down here on earth, weed and alcohol have the opposite effects you are claiming. I can tell by the way you talk that you have never tried weed to even know first hand what you are talking about. The most dangerous thing about using weed is getting busted for it! BTW you don't have to smoke it, it can also be used in many foods and digested that way, making it 100% safe for your body.

This cry baby mommas boy is in for a rough time in prison! If Baily deserved to die as Hilgendorf said, then he deserves to spend the rest of his life in prison for the murder. PERIOD! I think the mothers motive for this murder was money along.

Anytime it rains more then 2-3 inches, towns and cities pump raw sewage directly into streams and rivers, because the sewage treatment plants can't keep up. Every time this is done the DNR says it has no environmental impact. They need to rethink that statement. BTW people who do agriculture spraying HAVE to take training every few years to be able to spray pesticides, when any home owner can put these same pesticides on there lawn without any training or knowledge of what they are doing.

Dear Mr. Branstad I am self employed and have made a job for myself. Will I be seeing your tax cuts? Didn't think so. Then I will be waiting for your tax raise to offset your cuts to the wealthy. And to everyone who will be waiting for their wages to raise 25% in 4 years, good luck with that one! Your slave, Slave2taxes

Three different recorded confessions, plus testimony from 2 good friends stating he told them about his part in the murder. The defense has a very weak case. Looks like he is guilty to me!
