* Why does the US do business with China but not with Cuba?
* Why are US politicians and media talking about a "dignified death" for people who have been hanged by the government of their country? What is dignified about hanging in the first place?
* Why is it important that a politician has drug use in his or her past?
* Why is alcohol accepted and marijuana isn't?
* Why can countries with nuclear weapons (the US, the UK, France, Russia, and China) insist that other countries (such as Korea, Iran, India, and Pakistan) cannot have nuclear weapons?
* Why does it matter if an athlete is or was using steroids?
* How do those colleges that earn a lot from football and basketball games justify using students to bring in revenue without compensating those athletes (note that most big-game athletes do not get "free rides")?
* How do people square wanting a small government (social services programs, privatization of Social Security and Medicare) with wanting the same government to regulate social issues (marriage, abortion)?
* Why do people complain about attack ads but - apparently - respond to them, hence encouraging their continued use?
I don't know enough about these issues to understand them. If someone understands the foreign policy issues, the domestic issues, and/or the athletic issues enough to explain what's going on here, I would sure like to listen.
