The Effects of Immigration on the United States' Economy - Penn Wharton Budget Model - 2 views

  •  
    An article from a college about statistics and effects immigration has on our economy. Negative or positive you make up your mind on how immigration effects us.
  •  
    Definitely a topic I always find myself neutral. I try to have positive outlooks with the U.S. being the number 1 with the immigration. I get that most immigrants come here for the American dream (freedom) but then I think shouldn't they come here the right way by becoming a citizen first? Since we would have to as well if we were to go live in their countries. Then I see stuff on the news in the U.S. about shootings, bombs, etc caused by an immigrant. That would be my negative outlook.
  •  
    This article was very interesting. I have often wondered what the effects of immigration are, and if they affect the economy positively or negatively.

The Wall and US economic impact - 0 views

  •  
    This web site shows the negative impact on building a border wall with Mexico. It shows the numbers of US workers and Mexican workers affected by this decision. It shows how much capitol could be lost each day once the wall is built.
  •  
    Great find! I think that there is no real thought being put into the whole wall situation. Both the U.S. and Mexico have benefited from the ability to import and export goods providing jobs for both sides. The relationship that our current president is establishing will definitely impact our economy in a negative way.
  •  
    Excellent article! I agree with dennibro about the thought process behind it. First they were going to pay for it, now we are. Then the whole subject of who was going to be paying for this wall started to be backtracked. I think not only is it going to cost an astronomical amount of money to build, it will also cost us a lot to maintain it. I think a better idea is needed.

International Breastfeeding Journal - 0 views

  •  
    The American focus on the sexual purpose of breasts, rather than the physiological function of breasts, has serious public health consequences. Discomfort with breastfeeding in public lowers breastfeeding rates, which in turn negatively affects women's and children's short- and long-term health.

  •  
    Article discusses the Chinese government blocking web sites that it deems to be 'politically sensitive'. Web sites about the revolts against the government in other countries are blocked and have lead to more limits on internet searches. Other sites that are critical of government officials have also blocked and negative comments about them are deleted. The Chinese government now requires internet service providers to obtain their customers real names in an effort to cut internet anonymity.

Pros and cons of digital devices in adolescence - 1 views

  •  
    Here are some pros and cons of our current technology that we use on a daily basis. There also are some solutions or ideas on ways to get the benefits from technology without the negative side effects. The information covers the effect on our adolescence more than our adults.
  •  
    This is a topic that has always interested me as electronic devices have become like a second heart to so many teens- they feel that they can't live without it. I think the biggest negative side effect would be the access the devices give them to things that can harm their self esteem. For example, I've seen teen girls scroll through their Instagram feed, saying how they wish they looked like this girl, or her life looks so great, which can harm their feelings of self worth if they are constantly doing this.

    This website is about gender inequality especially towards women. It shows how women are treated in certain areas and how negative it is towards girls. It states how men have better choices and women don't really get a choice. Inequality is a big problem and many people don't see it, and it aims towards women and how they still to this day don't have equality.

Positive & Negative Effects of Eminent Domain - 0 views

  •  
    Eminent domain is a controversial issue where some think that government is overstepping its bounds and infringing on the right to own property. Many believe that are benefits to eminent domain which help communities grow economically. A darker side of eminent domain is the mass eviction of poor people for redevelopment projects.

Supreme Court Must Protect The Individual Right To Marry, Not Limit Individual Rights - 0 views

  •  
    Applied to marriage, assuming what's not true, that marriage between two men offends me, it's not the government's role on any level to protect me from being offended. Whatever one thinks of marriage between two men or two women, the argument that such a union negatively impacts those who aren't gay, or those who blanch at marriage between gay people is not compelling. Here's hoping we don't stop at marriage in expanding individual rights, rights that are natural, and that should exist free of political or voter influence.

    This article goes into the relationship between access to mental healthcare and suicide. This article is important because it is crucial to be mindful of what is at stake when we're talking about why it's important to have wide access to mental healthcare.

  •  
    I personally think that mental health has such a negative stigma around it, which is part of the reason it gets negated. Taking that negative stigma away, and providing people with access to the care they need is so important.
  •  
    Mental health truly is something that gets disregarded a lot of the time. If anything, all the time. I agree, having access to mental healthcare is extremely important. It could be beneficial to so many people and could save numerous lives.
  •  
    Its freightening how unaware we are as a people to mental health conditions. A condition that America has called its epidemic is obesity, but the root cause of so many conditions is actual mental health. Mental health is more than just people who struggle with a psycological problem.
  •  
    It should be noted that at the end of the article it was concluded that the correlations between these to things do not nesssasirly entail causation.
