Taxpayer

At the beginning of this assignment, I was indifferent. I searched through the list of controversial topics, skipping past the ones I was passionate about, to find one that I had no opinion on. I had to choose something I wasn’t biased about because eventually I’d have to choose one and write a counter argument against. This became an opportunity to educate myself on something I had no knowledge of; the death penalty. My family had talked often about Capital Punishment and whether or not it was…

independence from the government. Roosevelt’s New Deal was creating groups of Americans who would be dependent on the government. Government programs, such as the Civil Works Association, were designed to supply work to citizens. The government was spending taxpayer money by creating government jobs for unemployed citizens. After much government spending, the citizens working for the government made jobs weren’t getting any closer to economic independence and with growing complaints, President…

On average, “illegal aliens cost U.S. taxpayers more than $100 billion each year.” (ABC News) America is in debt enough, and they don’t have the money to spend on citizens from other countries. The United States of America must first sufficiently supply for their own, before supplying for another country's citizens. America needs more jobs, lack of debt, and knowing we are safe on American grounds.. None of those problems will be corrected if America has more citizens, who aren’t from there.…

Getting the technology: Much of the funding comes from taxpayers and the bills for equipping a school with technology are extremely high. If teachers do not know how to use technology correctly to engage students then it’s a waste of money. Schools need to have a plan on how to use their technology; if they don’t then they are just hoping on the bandwagon and having fancy technology just to have it. If the funding does not come from the taxpayers then it comes…

Obama’s strongest point was by reforming the prison system and putting more taxes towards education and other forms of betterment for the country, taxpayers will save more money in the long run. Obama supported this point by listing specific numbers and compared these figures to the current tax situation with prisons. As a persuasive speech Obama did a good job avoiding fallacies; he did not…

test preparation above anything else. Furthermore the tests are expensive. As an illustration Texas spent “$9 million in 2003 to test students, while the cost to Texas taxpayers from 2009 through 2012 is projected to be around $88 million per year” (NewYorkTimes). In other words these tests are consuming large amounts of taxpayers’ money. Finally standardized tests are known to make time consuming and costly errors. For example, “Florida's Comprehensive Assessment Test, delivered the 2010…

New immigrants to Canada are much more likely to have babies than their native-born counterparts. Immigrant women who have spent five years in Canada “have almost twice as many children of pre-school age (as) the average Canadian-born woman,” according to an extensive study by two noted economists. The University of Waterloo’s Ana Ferrer and Princeton University’s Alicia Adsera pored over two decades of Statistics Canada census data to reach their conclusion. There are major birthrate…

The biggest problem the U.S. government facing is that it does not know how much money taxpayers own in the Tax Havens. But, no country in this world can force other countries to change their regulations and laws, so the U.S. cannot ask another countries to change their laws to satisfy the U.S.. The effective way to limit the harmful effects is to ask other countries to share the information with the U.S. In May 2009; OECD removed Andorra, Liechtenstein and Monaco from the list of Uncooperative…
