The Single Greatest Challenge

Decent Essays

    Tittle What I consider to be America's greatest problem today is the amount of money people would have to spend on college without any scholarships, grants, and financial aid. Every year the annual average cost for a public college, school, increases by 6.5 percent. This means by 2030 a student that wants to attend a four year university would have to pay over $205,000!

    In the chronological order of things in life, one must start their educational pathway by first entering elementary school as a small child ready to explore and learn, then expanding on these desires throughout the next twelve years of their basic education, in institutions run by our very own states and government. When those twelve years draw to an end, they are persuaded to continue on and further their knowledge by going to college for whatever their heart desires.

What many people neglect to realize…

    The people of the United States of America have faced many challenges and we have overcome all of them together, some of the problems that we faces have been about each other and some of them still are. The American people have gotten smarter and more accepting of each other while we still maintain differences in culture while coming together in times of need or threat to our country. As bad as the racism was and to some extent is it is incredible the we haven’t had any large domestic terrorist groups sprout up here, there have been plenty of times in the past that an all black or all Asian terrorist group could have started but instead people chose peaceful movements rather than violent ones. This shows a lot about the faith that minorities…
