.... of which they are part than that of the larger public. This fact is not surprising. If most of a persons time is spent meeting with lobbyists, constituents, and bureaucrats, that person may actually come to believe what these influential people are saying. This is why new blood needs to enter Congress more frequently, in order to avoid the highly influenced Congress that is filled with old people with old ideals. Needless to say the once optimistic freshmen were unsuccessful in their task, and it=s plain to see why. Until that changes, Congress is not going to .....

.... on it. My family votes neither democratic nor republican, they vote for both. What I mean by that is that they vote for the best candidate who they think will get the job done. So they would be considered non-partisan. They go about picking the candidate based on the qualities of honesty, character, and what the candidate has accomplished in the past. There wasn't a basic consensus on the issues they thought were most important, but there issues they thought were most important, but there issues all dealt with money. For example my mom thought that federal and state government needs to be downside and .....

.... usually nineteen, enter college with a bias involving the drinking law. In almost every aspect other than the drinking age, these freshmen are considered adults. However, they are told by the law they are not responsible enough to handle alcohol. Elizabeth Whelan declares, "Banning drinking by young people makes it a badge of adulthood -- a tantalizing forbidden fruit" (84). This badge of adulthood is quickly attained by college freshman, who lash out at the drinking age, with binge drinking. The abuse of alcohol by young people can likely be prevented, certainl .....

.... military government. Coups ordinarily take place when the present government poses a threat to the state or the status quo. Because the military controls more armed power than anyone in a state, they have the ability to take over the government at any given time. In Power and Choice, Shively questions the notion of the infrequency of military governments. Yes, they are common, but why aren't they more common? The reason being that as societies advance and become more complex, it is necessary for the ruling elite to be more knowledgeable of the processes by .....

.... As affirmed by Thomson in her article A Defense of Abortion: "Similar things may be said about the development of an acorn into an oak tree, and it does not follow that acorns are oak trees, or that we had better say they are" (356). There is no scientific consensus as to when human life begins. It is much more a matter of philosophic opinion or religious belief. Human life is a continuum; sperm and eggs are also alive, and represent potential human beings, but virtually all sperm and eggs are wasted. In addition, two-thirds of human conceptions are sponta .....

.... A is where the government is run by all the people who live under it. To have a true , everyone must vote. People vote to exercise their democratic rights; if only 70% vote, then 70% control 100% of the government. Voting without adequate understanding and choosing candidates for the wrong reasons are symptoms of voting for the sake of voting and not taking an active interest in how our country is run. Instead of making an effort to understand issues and party fundamentals, too many ignorant people actually base their decisions on what the candidates tell .....

.... out the chances of them having depression or any other disorder in the future, is much less then a person who doesn’t talk to anybody about it. One type of is the shaking child syndrome. This is when you shake the baby forcefully usually by the shoulders causing the blood vessels that bridge the brain and skull to tear. This could lead to seizures, lethargy, vomiting and irritability and eye injuries, extreme cases could lead to coma or even death. You don’t have to be a bad mother to do this to your child just one day you could be feed up with the child and wh .....

.... that insignificant? I also believe that those who make an effort and visit the polling places as often as humanly possible should be rewarded, maybe with something more than an “I voted” sticker which ends up in the trash can a day later anyway. If the government were to give a $50 tax break to everyone who voted, I think that many more people would show up to the polls, those who had too much to do before would suddenly have a few minutes to spare. I also think that all polling places should replace the “I voted” stickers, with an “I voted” stamp on the ri .....
