    This link shows everything wrong with our world right now. I am constantly outraged by the wage gap, and how employers are allowed to get away with it. It blows my mind that so many people claim that men and women are CURRENTLY treated the same way, when clearly they are not. p.s i actually book marked this link on my computer, that way i can send it to anyone who disagrees.
  •  
    This has been an ongoing issue for us women since day one. inequality in employment, wages and opportunities is extremely unjust. I think the more its brought to the surface and the more we show we still haven't forgotten, we will eventually get somewhere. Just like when we all came together for women's rights on inauguration day :)
  •  
    Women's right are changing. Women's need equal opportunities in workplace and education. This link is showing us how unfair is society with females. Hopefully in the future everybody is going to be equal and we will have the same opportunities.
  •  
    It seems that for all of the changes that have been made, a lot still needs to be done. There is no excuse for our country or any other country to still be dealing with unequal rights for women. The violence is disgusting, as well as discrimination and unequal pay. Thank you for sharing.
  •  
    As a woman, I believe we have definitely come a long way. However, I believe we are not completely equal to males yet, which we should be. More changes need to be done.
  •  
    The fact that women and other people in our country and other countries have to even fight to be equal is disgusting. We are all the same and deserve to be treated the same. The fight must continue.
  •  
    It is crazy to think that in 2017 that we as humans can't treat one another the same as you would want to be treated yourself. I am not a woman but I do have a wife and daughter that I would hate/despise if they were treated any less than myself for any reason.

All About Abortion Rights - 0 views

  •  
    The debate over abortion rights is ugly, the gap between pro-choice and pro-life too vast for meaningful dialogue, the differences too fundamental for compromise.

The Right of Privacy: Is it Protected by the Constitution? - 0 views

  •  
    The future of privacy protection remains an open question. The public, however, wants a Constitution that fills privacy gaps and prevents an overreaching Congress from telling the American people what they can and cannot do.
  •  
    This discusses the legality of the right to privacy. Is it constitutional? Is it even a right? Looks at court cases in the pat

Why school lunches should be free to all - 2 views

  •  
    This article sums up that 60% of school lunches are already subsidized for students across all of America, and the remaining 40% still suffer on missed lunches. The amount of money spent trying to administer the costs of managing the school lunches could almost close the gap on the last 40% having to pay out of pocket, and potentially missing multiple lunches.
  •  
    I believe no child should ever go hungry. I think that every grocery store should offer ripe produce for people and children as they shop, health and wellness should be priority one.
  •  
    Nice website! I like how it has all the information you might need for citing.

Education Should Be Free for Everyone - 2 views

  •  
    Information can readily be absorbed when it is relevant to human purpose. The proper focus of authentic education is not ingestion and disgorgement of information like trained seals clapping their flippers on command but a development process that leads to critical thinking and life-long learning skills.

    I agree, many other countries already have free education. I bet the wage gap would definitely benefit from the country having a free education system in the United States.
  •  
    I agree with this I think education should always be free. Everyone should be able to get a decent education even if they are not financially well off.
  •  
    I feel there would be more to benefit from having a higher population of educated individuals. These people would have more to contribute to society and the economy, so there would be more to gain in the long run.
  •  
    I agree with this education should be free. Lots of people don't go to college for the fact that they cant afford to go. President Biden has canceled student loans which I think was really good of him to do. I know people who are in debt due to this.
  •  
    Education overall has so many social issues carved into it, cost being one of the major ones. Even just cutting down the cost would help. but we are one of the most expensive countries to attend college in. Like the article you linked states, student loans and the excessive amount people spend on an education results in them becoming bankrupt before even starting out.
