Government positions are notoriously the most hyper criticized and over analyzed occupations in the world, because everything anyone does is under a microscope, vulnerable to the opinions of absolutely everyone. Though opinions differ, one cannot argue the facts and statistics that prove a clear and obvious point. Barack Obama has had an extremely successful administration thus far, and the numbers prove it. The Obama administration has been the subject of profound amounts of criticism during…
return to normalcy. America went through political, social, cultural, and economic phases to make certain positive changes and to return to this normalcy America tried to isolate itself, became fearful towards immigrants, face changes in transportation and make poor economic choices. Americans became disconcerted with the world due to the issues surrounding the war and thus developed a policy of isolationism that greatly and negatively impacted immigration to America and immigrants…
still present today is the Federal Housing Administration. This agency makes it easier for American citizens to own their own property by granting anyone the ability to receive loans from their bank. During Roosevelt’s time, this aided in creating jobs for construction workers and allowed the United States to be a country of home owners as opposed to one of renters. Along with these major players in the United States’ economy also came other agencies such as the Federal Communications Commission…
Part A 1a. I do not think that slavery should be legal. When you enslave someone, you take away their humanity. They are humans who deserve to be treated as such. Slaves are treated as property and sometimes are not fed and clothed. Does the Declaration of Independence not say the all men are created equal. 1b. I believe that if slavery is legal, the slave trade should be legal. The slave trade is very important the the economy. The slave trade is necessary in order to get new slaves into the…
I agree with him when he says that “no American working full time should be in poverty” (Robert Reich). I agree because somebody working full time shouldn 't have to worry about how to pay for food or a home or simple basic necessities. They are working to try and better their life and with the economy the way it is’ it can seem impossible to make their lives better. The next step he talks about is unionizing low-wage workers. Unions gave the middle class…
Major companies in many different sectors all support, and spend money lobbying for, the continued criminalization of drugs. The continued criminalization of drugs is critical to the drug war, and includes strict punishments and sentences for those convicted of crimes involving drugs. It has been shown that groups such as private prisons, and prison guard unions lobby for strict punishments to increase incarceration, and reap the profits. These company’s contributions promote the war on drugs,…

The government ignored the Declaration of Independence in 1960 by not giving blacks their unalienable rights (King, “Speeches” 150). People of all races are guaranteed life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, but this was not upheld. Blacks were horribly discriminated against by white people. In 1963, there was a man who spoke in front of thousands of people whose speeches are still read and lectured today, and this man’s name was Martin Luther King Jr. The ‘I Have a Dream Speech’ is…
African-Americans stated that they were rude and that they were receiving better treatment when it came to bank and government loans. This assumption was false because in general, banks would reject giving out loans to minorities. Korean-Americans would usually receive loans from family and friends. Korean-Americans were also discriminated against even with college degrees; they were unable to find jobs because of the structural discrimination…
someone's property and destroying property that is not yours. People argue whether spray painting is deviant or actually a form of art. Lastly, the episode, I Don’t Wanna Know Why the Caged Bird Sings, shows the deviant act of robbery. Marge goes to the bank and strikes up a conversation with a guy named Dwight. He pulls out a gun and tells everyone to go in the floor. Robbery is considered deviant because it is causing harm to others and taking stuff that isn’t yours. Also, it is against the…
