I was raised in a Kennedy Democratic household. Unlike today’s Democrats, President Kennedy wanted less government. During his inaugural address, he stated, “My fellow Americans, ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country.” My parents believed in President Johnson’s Great Society and fighting poverty for the poor. My parents taught us to be self-reliant, work hard, save, and to remember nothing in life is free. Government programs are not free; they are…

and it is all over the news. Donald Trump “believes that finishing the pipeline will serve the national interest” (BBC). He is in favor of the North Dakota Pipelines. This question has been on the news constantly. It is being talked about by CNN, CNBC, and NBC news. The Standing Rock Sioux tribe have been protesting along with thousands of…

Shazam is a widely known music identification app. According to CNN, Shazam first started off as a call-in service where users would dial the numbers ‘2850’ to get their music identified. After 30 seconds of song identification, the user would then get a text message with the artist name and song title. About 14 years later, Shazam has not only upgraded their technology, but has also expanded from their initial music identification services to being able to identify TV shows and other forms of…

Introduction Venezuela is a constitutional republic that allows the people to vote for the president, and politicians into office. If the people of Venezuela see something that is wrong in the government, then they can protest, or vote out the politicians in office. Cuba is the complete opposite. Cuba is a communist country and the government is ran as a dictatorship. There are no elections, or different politicians which allow the same people to stay in power throughout the years. Venezuela’s…

In the article “Will Artificial Intelligence Eliminate My Job?” written by Rod Koch (Strategic Finance, 2017) the author examines the influence of Artificial Intelligence or AI to the labor force through a series of his experience and analysis. I enjoyed this article because it discusses AI, one of the hottest technology trend today. I find the article’s title is the same question that has been asked by many people, including myself. I certainly agree with the author about the impact which AI…

At all levels of society, polling has major sway. Whether it’s a small poll of a small group to determine where everyone will be going for lunch, or one of whole states to determine who the next leader of the free world will be, it uses vote totals obtained from the polling process to give perspective on what the population deems to be the “right” decision. As is expected, however, the practice has its drawbacks - specifically, the inherent risks of weighting, selection bias, and decreased…

Argument Over the past 20 years, in-state tuition and fees at public National Universities, have increased a ridiculous 296 percent, according to U.S. News. This increase has made receiving a higher education extremely difficult for lower middle class and poorer families. Often if these families try to send their children to college, they either pile on debt or tell their child they’re on their own. Both of these situations can cause issues such as family tension, crippling financial…
