This presentation is about Project Muso Ladamunen. It was started in Mali to help give aid to the poorest members of the community. The community members did not have easy access to health care that was affordable and many of them were dying of treatable diseases. The first thing we are going to talk about is the problems that Mali had before Project Muso. In Mali 36.1% of the population lives below the poverty line. Many of these people live on less than $2 a day. Due to the fact that the many…

I would like to take a quote from the book that was said by Frank Keating, “The government authorizes official inequity when it compensates a dishwasher at the World Trade Center differently from the way it compensates the person whose dishes were washed.” (p.201) This sums up the government’s philosophy on whom, how much, and where to contribute during a financial hardship. According to the government, a person’s life worth is resolute by his/her social class. My social class has impacted my…

The Betty and Barney Hill Abduction case is more famous compared to other alien encounters because the other cases were mere followers. Because it is the first public account of alien abduction, there was controversy; the questionable evidence of when, where, and why it happened still intrigues today. First set evidence is looking at when it happened, we can tell it happened in the early 1960’s. It was September 19, 1961, night the Hills were on their way home to Portsmouth, New Hampshire,…

Patriotism is more than just waving a flag, it is something from within. Patriotism to me is the pride I take in my country, it is the freedom that I receive from my brothers and sisters fighting for me, it is the peace I get to know that I have a safe place to live, it is the honor I have to be apart of such a beautiful country. Patriotism is the blessings I received from our founding fathers, that gives me faith for a better tomorrow. It gives me hope that my future will be astounding, that I…

It isn’t a rare occurrence that people find themselves worrying about someone watching their every move. While this usually isn’t the case, there is something of a similar nature becoming more and more prevalent right under everyone’s noses. As of June 2013, it was revealed to the general populations of several countries including the United States, as well as any other interested parties in the world, the existence of numerous surveillance programs being run by the NSA and other local and…

There are generalized ideas about why a nation succeeds or fails but they are just that, generalized ideas. The intelligence of a nation has nothing to do with its GDP, and its success is not determined by its culture or geography. Explaining away the differences in two nations, like North and South Korea, that are side-by-side and were once a single nation by geography and culture simply does not work. What does explain the differences in nations, however, is the political and economic…

The idea of the government monitoring internet content stems from good intent, but how can you tell if it has gone too far? Looking at the principle of limited government we see that some principles exist to protect the people. Limited government exists to protect the people from tyranny. Perhaps a good portion of governmental monitoring of content can be viewed as our nation being one step closer to a tyrannical state where there is no limited government. It is this principle that our founding…

In the definition of Robert Dahl, a political system is any consistent set of human relations that involve a significant measure of power relations, government or authority. An essential feature of human societies is that the influence, domination, power and authority are present everywhere. The rule can be defined as a potential effective voluntary or involuntary asymmetrical relationship superiority / inferiority, or conscious or unconscious, between individuals, groups, societies and cultures…

Sovereignty is the full right and power of a governing body over itself, without any interference from outside sources or bodies. I do agree that every country can decide what the best interest is for them and their people. I do not agree that believing that the best interest for their country is exterminating a race/religion. When other countries believe that genocide is the best interest for their country, neighboring countries should step in. They are human lives, I understand countries did…

Prime Minister Tony Abbott’s comments that “it is time to make each level of government sovereign in its own sphere”, signals that the States of Australia will have greater sovereignty in the future, an unprecedented move that contrasts against the progressive history of centralisation, cooperative federalism and Commonwealth supremacy that began in the latter half of the 20th century and has continued to this day. Within the framework of modern day federalism two issues are pertinent; the…
