 Elsewhere (2009)
IMDB rating: 6.00
Plot: Sarah and Jillian have been best friends for so long they can’t remember when their friendship started. Growing up in the small town of Goshen, Indiana the two girls couldn’t be more different. Sarah is a star pupil and athlete, a 100-watt-bulb in a five-watt-town, while Jillian is star mischief-maker, a 100lbs-of-trouble in a five-pound-bag. Although both girls long to be break free of the small-town life, Jillian is the first to act, revealing to Sarah that she has been meeting men on-line with the sole purpose of finding someone who will “take her away from this place”. Soon thereafter, she disappears leaving Sarah with only a journal and a cryptic video message sent from her cell-phone. Sarah soon discovers that the town would rather forget that Jillian had ever existed. Distraught, she delves into the secrets surrounding her disappearance. Aided by, Jasper, the resident computer geek who secretly adores her, the two plunge head-long into Goshen’s dark secrets — uncovering corrupt police, jilted boyfriends, a mother driven mad by loss, and an unsolved string of child abductions. The final truth they unearth will rock the town to its foundations.

Would you support this political program?
1. Repeal Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell. Allow gays to serve openly in the military without discrimination. Provide civil unions for both straight and gay couples with all the rights of a married couple.
2. Lowering the voting age, drinking age, and age of consent to 16.
3. Full-blown marijuana legalization. Decriminalizing posession of small quantities of other drugs.
4. Speech is speech. Let’s drop the "Obscene" speech nonsense and let speech be REALLY free, no censorship WHAT-SO-EVER.
5. Slash the whole DEA. Scale back the ATF to a husk of its current self. Earmark all the police appropriations so they don’t go to pursuing victimless crimes.
6. Government-funded college tuition.
7. Immediate repeal of all "sin taxes". Leave people’s personal moral choices alone. The government needs NOT make a stance on morality, society can sort that out by itself.
8. Public option in health care.
9. Repeal of all employment-at-will laws through the use of the commerce clause. Make firing for incompetency straightforward and red-tape-free, but make it hard to fire employees for fighting for higher wages and more benefits.
10. Streamline all of the Administration’s red tape. Cut it as much as it’s humanely possible, and get the redundant government employees either to do something productive or to find work elsewhere.
11. Declaration of a right to privacy.
12. Ensuring no appropriations bill may contain earmarks unsolicited by the receiving department, as a common-sense measure for cutting wasteful spending.
13. Making sure the Government takes control whenever it bails out a company. As a rule of thumb, place failing companies under their workers’ control instead of handing them to other bunch of equally clueless corporate retards.
14. Implementing common-sense gun rights and gun control policies: Cut VIOLENT felons and nuts’ access to guns, and leave everyone else arm himself and tote weapons to its hearts’ content. Instant background check, no waiting period, mandatory shall-issue permits.
15. Gradually phasing out racially-based affirmative action. Keep it in place until we can replace it with income-based affirmative action. Scrap racially-based AA then.
16. Tight nondiscrimination laws to ensure a meritocracy is achieved. No-one’s views or identity should bar them from a job (except if it’s political or religious) as long as they’re able to do it right. On the same token, favor equal work, equal pay initiatives and stay out of unions’ business.
17. Right-to-work laws together with strong protection for the right to unionize. Let multiple unions compete and cooperate freely. Make collective bargainings binding by law, so an employer may not default on what he previously bargained with its workers.
What are your thoughts on it?
Yup, I know it’s uber-liberal, but I’d like a reasoned disagreement if there’s to be one.
You have noticed that the plan in itself includes many wasteful spending cuts.
While the free college tuition and health care would be expensive, no other costly provisions are implemented.
The current tax model would easily acommodate it. With the funds we use to prosecute vice (which we wouldn’t do anymore) we could easily pay the tuitions.
On the other hand, the universal health care would be run as a zero-cost model: You evenly divide costs among all users of the system. Employers would have this non-profiteering alternative as long as it was viable, as would employees, while pushing for legislation that makes medical care cheaper (such as mandatory generics use when patents expire and an overhaul of the torts system)
2) Drinking age 18 then? I wouldn’t push ages of consent HIGHER, and 16 is prevailing, so I’d defen 16
By income-based Affirmative Action I mean favoring people based on socioeconomic status instead of race: Those with a working class background would be helped offset the social networking and funds of the rich guys.
What’s your plan for taxes? Hate to break it to ya, but your plan costs money.
Kaito says it's been too lon | Dec 14, 2009
1) ABSOLUTELY!
2) I wouldn’t go with 16, but 18 would do well to be preserved. If we could get the drinking age down there, it’d be great. At 18, you’re considered a legal adult.
3) Yes, I would. Your body, your choice.
4) I’d like people not to use derogatory names, but that SHOULD be their choice.
5) In going with n umber 3, slashing the DEA makes sense. In regards to the ATF, it would depend on HOW far back. But, yes I could.
6) Yes. Many other countries do it and have greater college graduation rates because of it.
7) The purpose of "sin" taxes is to treat uninsured people for the diseases those items cause (obesity, lung cancer). I’m not a fan, but it’s a necessity. Essentially, this makes them pay for their treatment.
Public option? In a heart beat.
9) Hmmm…yes, I could go with that. However, I think incompetency should be proven.
10) Yup – best idea yet.
11) For the love of deities, yes. This one is LONG overdue.
12) Again, another excellent idea.
13) Again, yes.
14) Keep the waiting period in place and I’m on board.
15) I can agree with phasing out AA based on race; what is meant by "income-based"?
16) Yes, for several reasons. You crack down on gender discrimination; also, people should be able to form unions if they so choose.
17) Absolutely.
It may be uber liberal, but they are also filled with common sense.
Joshua C | Dec 14, 2009
1. Agree
2. Disagree have it all at 18
3. Agree
4. Agree
5. Agree
6. Disagree. Taxes would be way too high
7. Agree
8. Disagree. End health insurer’s anti-trust exemption and let them sell across state lines.
9. Agree with incompetnecy firing but "make it harder to fire for fighting for wages" is too broad
10. Agree but I would go further with cuts than that
11. Agree
12. Agree
13. Disagree. Let failing companies fail
14. Agree
15. Disagree. Scrap it all. Income based affirmative action is one of the reasons for the recession.
16. Disagree. Unions are corrupt and not necessary anymore, and if a company wants to discriminate they have that right, and people have the right not to buy there prodducts, and their racist business will fail
17. Disagree. See previous point
You have some good points but overall too much government interference in the free maret.

ok, here’s my ultra conservative reply…funny, we seem to agree on an awful lot….
1) I think there are far more important issues to be addressed first.
2) bad idea, why not make the benefits of citizenship open only to those who have done something to serve society. just giving people benefits because of their age doesn’t make any sense.
3) (&5a) The Dea was formed through the Controlled Substances Act, Which regulates what individual citizens may do, which is a clear violation of federal legislative authority. it should be repealed. The Government should neither deny nor mandate the purchase or sale of ANY goods or services. To do so is in direct contradiction for the reason our federal government was formed.
4) yes, and lets get rid of those laws about ‘illegal communication’ while we’re on the subject.
5b) the ATF, FBI and NSA should be consolidated into one entity with the SS, i mean Homeland Security.
6) think this sounds better than it would be. maybe with certain caveats
7) how about repealing all taxes? our country should be run on tariffs. Because the government has passed so many laws which each incrementally increase the cost of doing business in the US, shouldn’t they apply those same monetary restrictions to providers of foreign goods? When the US was in similar problems in the past, both the Tariff act and the Protective tariff act worked well to help out the citizenry of this country.
Medicaid and Medicare already exist as public option health care. the two entities should be collapsed into one, and made available for all citizens-to pay exclusively for emergency and or preventative health care. If you want plastic surgery you can pay for it yourself. Mandating that someone buy insurance will be far less effective than mandating everyone have a medical savings account. after all, if insurance companies paid out more than they took in, they’d go out of business.
9)Will consider this and get back to you.
10) PLEASE, PLEASE let this happen!
11) no contest, absolutely
12) how about any elected official that accepts campaign finances from outside of their constituency is barred from public office for life. Limit the total number of laws acceptable on the books to 100, with no more than 1000 words per law.
13) NO BAILOUTS. if someone fails, let them fail. rewarding people for failure is a sure way to ensure they will do it again. for what happens when the government takes over a business, look at the us postal service and amtrak. the only way to absolutely mess up any business is put the government in charge.
14) The second amendment is very clear. The US government is not empowered to regulate or enact any legislation regarding firearms. no licensing, no checks, no permits.
15) AA is apartheid in america. If it is to exist at all, it should be merit based, not income or race based.
16) Sounds like my idea for the Equality Party. If someone else is entitled to it, so are you, if you aren’t they shouldn’t be. The idea is that on an equal playing field, the cream will rise to the top.
17) sounds good, would need very cautionary wording in the bill to prevent circumvention of the intent.
