excellent way to promote his argument. However, his idea of random street frisking had numerous faults in it, including harassment, racial profiling, and abuse of compensation. Overall, his point that instead of disarming law-abiding citizens, the government should be more focused on finding ways to get illegal guns off of the street is commendable. There is no “quick fix” to the complex problem of gun…

In fact, government surveillance was one of the many ways the Party controlled civilians throughout the story in 1984. For example, Winston and Julia want to be able to see each other as much as possible, and went to great lengths in order to do so. They went to very desolate areas away from microphones and cameras, such as a far off countryside accessible by train, in order to talk to each other (Orwell). This abuse of power is even used to this day, as the government has many tactics used…
improve the wellbeing of the Nation’s people. As a matter a fact, most people will agree that taxes are one of the biggest annoyance they face. But, what some do not realize is the importance of taxes hold in some nations’ economies and as well as government run programs. It is not a black and white picture as some people will want it to be. To further grasp a grip on how deep the concept of Taxes, we will need to ask the question. Do Taxes hinder or improve people’s way of life? In 2015, all…
different ways in which a state can choose to govern its citizens.

The next time I walk-in into any store I would surely observe more than I ever have until now. The reason simply being that in the last couple of days I have learnt so much about organisational culture and its different aspects that I can no longer look at any organisation the way I used to look at it before. Earlier, whenever I used to visit a store, it never occurred to me that everything that I could possibly see in that store was meant to be the way it is for a reason. I was unaware of the…
The life of a human being is a very complex topic to think about. Someone living across the country could have the same exact views as me, and someone living right next to me could have completely opposite views. This all depends on the person and their life experiences. The cross-section where different views contact one another is in the world of politics. When thinking about how a person came to their decision regarding politics, it can be seen as a giant puzzle, where each puzzle piece is a…
after the fall of the British Raj, there will prove to still be a great deal of income disparity today as a result of government corruption, a lack of education in specific regions, and…
one to Christ to be part of his body, and one to the world as citizens, neighbors, co-workers, etc. This duality is shown in Romans 13:1-7 where Paul reminds everyone to place themselves under government authority while reminding them that all authority comes from God. Each of these areas has its own government and uses distinct ends and means when serving that unit. There is a distinction between heavenly things and earthly things, and between righteousness before God and righteousness before…
