Education and Child Policy | Cato Institute - 2 views

    I think there are some things the school or parents have the right to do. The parents have the right to send them to whatever school they and their child choose. The school has the right to restrict the child from doing certain things that could result in a code of conduct brake. According to the government, they say a child must attend school until they are 18 and are considered an adult. I believe that is all the government should be allowed to do. It's then up to the student to continued their education or go into the workforce.

    I think that the government's power should be to help people get an education, but it's up to the parents and students to decide where to go and if they want to go on for more schooling. For some jobs, college might not help as much as a trade school, and that's a decision for the parents and student to decide.

    I think this is a good thing giving the vaccines to people who need it most right now like health care workers.

    I'm not too sure how I feel about the new vaccine. I've heard things about it and to me it just seems suspicious. There are so many diseases in the world that scientists have spent years up on years researching and still having made a vaccine. In just one year we have a vaccine for Covid-19. that's just a little suspicious to me.

    im glad the vaccine it out and there giving it to people who need it I'm glad health care workers are getting it I know sence I'm young and have a good immune system it will be awhile tell I get it but that okay
  • trinitytallman on 14 Dec 20
     
    I think it is good that the vaccine is now ready for use. It is also good that health care workers are getting it first because I feel like they have the highest chance of getting covid due to being in the hospital around many sick people.
  • juliasmith384 on 16 Dec 20
     
    I think the vaccine is too dangerous, there have already been people who volunteered to take it and they basically became paralyzed. Also, I think it came out way too fast vaccines usually take years to test and make sure theyŕe safe to use and actually work. Yes, the vaccine may work but that doesn´t necessarily mean it´s safe.
  • cmacias539 on 17 Dec 20
     
    What if they don't work and we just end up getting all our nurses killed with the vaccines? Jk I don't think they'll kill people but I also have my suspicions on how it was made so fast.

    I think it is good that we have a vaccine and are giving it to the people who need it first.
  • jcooley186 on 04 Jan 21
     
    I think it's really great that we are able to give our frontline workers the sources they need to be able to keep helping and taking care of the pandemic. And although it was kind of fast for a vaccine to have been made, I'd like to believe that it will help.
  • hharker376 on 04 Jan 21
     
    I'm glad that the people who need it the most are getting it at this time.
  • margaretgrover on 05 Jan 21
     
    As the people who are in constant contact with the people with Covid, I'm glad that frontline workers are getting the vaccine first. However, we need to remember that this is a vaccine, not a cure.

    I think that the Secretary of State of Georgia is doing the right thing. There is no evidence showing that Trump has these votes, they aren't hidden somewhere. He lost and needs to accept it.

    I dunno, I kinda don't agree with those who have been in power helping out their friends who have also been in power. Like Biden should pick some new people as opposed to people who haven't done anything with their political power for the past 20+ years

    I think it will take a lot more real facts and evidence that this vaccine works to persuade people to get it.
  • Bryan Pregon on 14 Dec 20
     
    Good article. I agree that now that vaccines have been approved in US, hopefully many of our leaders, favorite celebrities, role models, etc. will publicly support the process. Experts say that we will have to get close to 75-80% of the population vaccinated before the US gets "back to normal" whatever that looks like in 2021...

    I think this is for the best. The rising in Covid cases in Iowas and the midwest alone is ridiculous. I believe that these restrictions are for the betterment of getting the virus under control. Everyone needs to follow this limitation if we ever want to better next year. From the looks of it, this pandemic might continue for more than a year if we don't abide by the rules they are giving to help us.

    I think that it's good that we got new restrictions, but I don't think people will follow them for very long.
  • laurenhansen168 on 23 Nov 20
     
    I think it is good there are more restrictions being put in place, but I don't think it will help anyone, because people are still going to big gatherings.
  • eoneal271 on 23 Nov 20
     
    I think the new regulations needed to be put into place to help decrease the covid cases. I think that the governor was justified for wanting to put a mask mandate in. People in Iowa were not being and so I feel that now was a good time to put restrictions in.
  • jcooley186 on 23 Nov 20
     
    This is definitely for the best, cases are rising quickly and people weren't taking it as seriously as before. I hope people will do these things to save not only themself, but other people as well.
  • jcollins438 on 23 Nov 20
     
    hopefully, this helps the cases go down

    I feel we need these new restrictions I think they are helpful and now people might take it more seriously

    I don't know, Trump honestly should stay quiet and let the legal hearings proceed. I feel like there was corruption in this election with all the evidence of dead voters and people from other states voting where they're not registered, but I might be biased because I'm a republican. I don't really trust any major news source that "fact checks" because they're kinda biased, leaning towards democrats. So I try and trust local news, places that aren't really corrupt or biased.

    I've heard many things about Biden being president, most predominantly gas going up and Kamala Harris taking over for Biden which I kinda see happening. I feel like they'll say Biden's mentally unfit or bring up the Hunter Biden stuff and Harris will take over.

    Hopefully, this new president will give America a chance to turn over a new leaf and repair the damages that had been previously done.

    Hopefully he make us wear mask everyday then corona is gonna over.

    I think a lot of people are going to struggle with the price inflation and it's going to be a little rocky.
  • jcooley186 on 09 Nov 20
     
    I'm hoping that we'll be able to see more progress and actions towards covid, climate change, and more from this new president.
  • xxchrysxx on 09 Nov 20
     
    I personally was hoping for Biden to win, but after hearing some things and doing more research it's unclear. No one is perfect, but I can say all we can do is hope for the best. I just hope for my generation he will help us in the long run for our future.
  • bayliegirres on 14 Nov 20
     
    I agree with Michael, that Kamala Harris is going to take over for Biden. I also think that raising taxes for the people who make over $400,000 a year is not fair.
  • scarney230 on 16 Nov 20
     
    i am glad that biden is going to broadened health care coverage and student loan forgiveness i think this will help many poeple
  • laurenhansen168 on 16 Nov 20
     
    I think health care is going to help many people, but the fact that people that make a certain amount of money, have to pay higher taxes, is not fair.
  • livmorrow on 16 Nov 20
     
    I also think that a lot of people are going to struggle with the prices inflating. But I just hope that with Biden being president more people can be tolerant with each other since no one was doing then when Trump was in office.
  • trinitytallman on 16 Nov 20
     
    I think that people who make a certain amount of money shouldn't have to pay more taxes, it's not fair.

    Makes sense, he was a Republican appointed by Trump, I guess he didn't want to work with a democrat as president
