The Importance Of Government In My Life

The government affects my life in many ways. First, I will break down the different types of government in the American Democracy. Local government is the closest to home for us. This can be our city police department, our public administration of the towns, cities or counties we live in. I would think we come into the most contact with local maybe with our police departments. Whether for being pulled over or maybe not following city ordinances in the towns we live in.

Now we are trying to come up with several different strategies that help each kid who may learn differently. I get the overall reason, but I don’t think we have gone about it in the right way. School is very challenging to many kids and now self-confidence has dropped and any desire for them to want to go to school has as well. I think with the schools being funded by the government we are now forced to do things that they want too. I also feel the government has spent so much time trying to push being politically correct that somehow the way Christians are treated, have been excused from that. I feel like we have made many excuses for many different religions to be tolerating of everything they are, which I do agree with, but Christians have lost many of the same rights. I think the government has removed many religious liberties. I think the government should allow Christians the right to pray just as any other religion
