Why The Taliban Should Be Illegal

Decent Essays
When the Taliban took over one of the laws they made was that there should be no education which meant if they saw a school they would blow it or kill everyone in it. This goes as the worst law that you could ever put in a country as it will mean the majority of the people will not be able to the basic things such as read and write or to learn how to do complicated jobs. This law that they put in will result in poverty. This law also ruins many jobs for teachers as it would be very hard for them to make money then leads to not having enough food to survive.
