Affirmative Action And Its Eff
Words: 1744 - Pages: 7.... reason for the division of our nation on affirmative action.
Affirmative action is very noble when looking at who benefits
from the outcome. Take a closer look at affirmative action. The
people that are involved and the damage it takes on our society
surfaces many doubts. Taking a closer look also stirs up a question
of nobility that needs to be answered before making a decision on
affirmative action. Does affirmative action simply change who is
discriminated against and makes it legal for the new discriminators?
Coming from my point of view, the view of a white male, this

Affirmative Action
Words: 1237 - Pages: 5.... man. He heads home in delight, hoping to hear from
the marketing firm again. Unfortunately, he never hears from
them again. The main reason why he was not chosen, was because of the
color of his skin. Since he is Asian, they could not hire him, because 50%
of their employees are Asian. Under the affirmative action, they must
employ someone who is underrepresented. This type of situation happens
often. It is not the qualifications, but the color of the skin that
employers look for today. Affirmative action is a step backwards. We are
back to color and race differences. We are all Americans and should be
treated as so, not what eth .....

Words: 1303 - Pages: 5.... until the number of addicts increased fivefold. He argued that cocaine is not a “victimless crime.” Addicts victimize children by neglect and spouses by not providing (370).

He accused each and every one of them of being a communist or having communist ties. The only catch was that those who were accused, in most cases, were not even communists. He realized that after World War II, the whole nation was afraid that communists would overtake the country. McCarthy did not know much about communism, but he used it to scare people. He told them that if they were not careful, communists would take over the country. Soon after, a committee was formed called t .....

Locke: Is This True Justice?
Words: 530 - Pages: 2.... dictatorships or communist
governments are becoming obsolete because people are finally speaking against
their one sided beliefs. The Ceaucescu Revolution was a good example of a
dictatorship brought down by its people. The people were driven beyond the limit
and over powered their bad governmental leaders for both their own good and
their nations well being. Another instance where this was displayed was when the
Berlin Wall was torn down by the people of Germany. They tore down the barrier
that was made by their leaders that had kept them from their families for over
30 years. The laws of Hammurabi and Machiavelli would be going through t .....

It could pass laws but could not enforce them. In short, this Congress was nothing more than an unrespected child trying to get attention. On the contrary, the only possible good thing that came out of Congress during this time was the Northeast
Ordinance.
This accomplishment, seemingly insignificant, gave the nation a method by which states could enter the union. This one success was not enough to save the Articles. Another convention was called to correct the weaknesses but .....

Language, which is the bearer of culture par excellence, opens the door to the world of the other and gives us the means to apprehend other ways of viewing our common world and our common humanity. Why study Spanish? Beyond the argument just made for the truly cosmopolitan view, there are, for the US citizen, compelling internal and external reasons. First, one has to consider the rise of the Hispanic community within our midst. The US Census Bureau shows that the Latinos residing in the United States total about 27 million people and make up almost 10% of the population. Projections indicate t .....

court, and an Appeals court. The court that you will go to depends on your
situation. Our government is made up of three different branches. They are the
Executive branch, Legislative branch and the Judicial branch. All of these
branches check one another so that there is no foul ups. The reason for the
three branches is to split up the power and work. This is done so that no one
branch has more power that the other. I think that others should move to America
because of the opportunity the U. S. has to offer. The U.S. has many jobs and
schools. The schools in the U.S. are great they teach you all .....

The United States And Immigration
Words: 1324 - Pages: 5.... We need to start an era of restrictions on the immigrants who come here. We can only begin to help the situation now, because it would take decades to solve a situation like this.
There is a quickly growing problem of overpopulation in this country. As the population grows at an insane rate, our free space is going to get much smaller. Not only is the population rising extremely fast, but also we are letting thousands of people into the country. The more people there are, the less room there is for everyone. We can’t continue to place everyone together as close as possible. It will only result in a large population moving away to a .....
