U.S./Mexico Border

U.S/Mexico Border 


First of all, I would like to say that I very much enjoyed the whole "slideshow" that came with the presentation. I thought it was very well constructed and I did in fact learn some things I never knew just with my knowledge. I only knew about ten percent that was on that slideshow. Now to my argument, I believe that building anytime of barrier or wall that would block all illegal immigrants from getting into the country is a terrible idea. I feel that for one, it will be a huge waste of money, and we currently have the allowance to be able to build any type of barrier. For the next reason, there really is just no point, there are not that many people that are going to do any harm in the U.S. Many of the police officers are pro wall, which is not understandable. If you are having problems with illegal immigrants and them bringing drugs into the country, instead of sending them back, take them in and make them have a pat down, to see if they have them or not. I just believe, immigrants deserve to be in this country. Instead of throwing them out, how about we try to bring them in and accept them. They don't deserve any of the hate that they receive, and should be given a chance to be able to prove themselves, and should be able to stay. Many of those families just want to be able to have a new start and be able to get a new life. Building any type of wall won't be able to stop drug trafficking. Many of the Smuggling tunnels can go to about 70 feet deep, and any wall built, only goes to six, and that is still 21.6 Billion dollars. This may also affect any type of wild life trying to migrate from country to country. In general, I believe the wall is a horrible idea, and should be immediately stopped, won't bring any change, things may get worse.

The Education Gap

Read an article on a racial issue in America from the last five years, whether it is from an American newspaper or a foreign paper looking at American issues.  Briefly summarize the article information and then respond with what your evaluation as to what is going on, how it is being treated by the press, or anything else that you would like to say about it. The Education Gap Between Whites and African Americans In the United States:  Although we have changed our laws in the years since lawful segregation, the legacy that segregation has left lives on in the present day United States. This is particularly evident in the way we regard education, and even after integration there is still a large gap that lives between the way we education white children and the way we educate African American children. Many of the differences in this lie in the qualification and quality of teachers and curriculum and the contrasts in funding that resides in our school systems. It...

Where voting matters - El Salvador

Ashwin Dev Mr. Roddy IHSS 24 October 2018 Where Voting Matters - El Salvador The Salvadoran presidential elections are going to be held on February 4, 2019 with a second round in March if no candidate wins an outright majority. El Salvador has a limit for a single 5-year term which means that the current president,  Sánchez Cerén  will not be able to run for this election. This election is different from most in the past due to the new political parties law, which says that a single candidate from each party must be chosen before the date of the election. The two parties at the moment are apart of El Salvador's multi-party system which include the National Republic Alliance (ARENA, right wing) and the Farabundo Mart í National Liberation Front (FMLN, left wing) as well as 2 other new parties.  Arena has been out of power since 2009 however they have chosen a man named Carlos Calleja to represent them. Calleja is a 42 year old businessman who owns a chain of sup...

Sharing Economy- Luke

Luke Kirchner       After much thinking, I have realized that sharing economies can be created from almost anything. I decided to make create something about sharing home decor. This would include things like paintings, ornaments and other small things to decorate your house. One challenging thing that would need to be sorted out, would be the value of the objects. Art is very subjective and can be valued very differently by other people. The market would have to establish it self to truly assign a price to different pieces. This would be a great way to make some money off of pieces of art that usually aren't seen and this would allow the renter to spruce up their house.       An app would be used to connect people and would ask for necessary information. This would probably be more localized, so people could drive over and pick up, or vice-versa. Some sort of insurance/waiver would also have to be part of the process, to ensure the rente...
