Seattle shaming residents for not composting food waste - 0 views

  •  
    The average american family wastes about 1,200 pounds of food annually. Residents who throw away food will have a "scarlet letter" type notice on their trash can. This red sticker will let others know that this person was throwing away good food. This is a good way to try and stop us from throwing away so much good food.

    this was really cool to read I mean obviously it is important for women to understand how this all works, but I think its equally as important for the guys to read and understand that way they can be more knowledgable and be more involved in the process.

Is Obamacare causing a surge in part-time work? - 0 views

  •  
    - Obamacare is still in its early stages and we have yet to see what it will do the job market in the long haul. The White House has pushed back the employer mandate that requires the employers that have 50-99 employees that care working full time to provide heath care coverage to them or have to pay a $2000 penalty. This could cause small businesses that make up a lot of the new jobs to hire less employees as the mandate goes in to play.

ObamaCare Employer Mandate - 0 views

  •  
    - The ACA allows employers to provide their workers with healthcare benefits. As a part time employee to be eligible for the benefits, they must work less than 30 hours a week, and work more than 120 day in one year. How ever by lay only full time employees are to be given benefits by law. Because of this many companies choose to hire more part time workers so they do not have to provide benefits.

    Solutions to reducing food waste.
  •  
    I think it's really great that college students are coming up with a way to help reduce food. Giving food to charities would help in having the homeless eat and also not wasting good food.There needs to be more organizations like this worldwide.

  •  
    Depending on how people interpret laws, they might believe that they might have lost them but some other people are still satisfied by the fact that they still have some rights. I really like how she expressed her opinion and it really got me thinking onto how our rights might change in the future.

Defunding Planned Parenthood Is the Opposite of "Pro-Life" - 1 views

  •  
    Planned Parenthood isn't just about abortions. Defunding Planned Parenthood doesn't just effect abortions as many Republicans and "pro-life" activist would like to think. Planned Parenthood provides birth control, breast exams, pap-smears, and sexual education classes. And get this, government funding isn't even used for abortions in the first place!
  •  
    Planned Parenthood offers more diverse health-care than just abortions. Planned Parenthood provides essential medical practices to women who could not otherwise afford them. The fight against this establishment is only scaling the top of this issue. This is not a fight against supporting abortion, this is a fight to keep women feeling safe with knowing they have a place to turn when they need medical assistance.

A Case to Defund Planned Parenthood - 0 views

  •  
    Many people see planned parenthood as an organization that has been taking money from the government to fund abortions among many other issues. It's thought that this shouldn't be the case because there are so many other health care services in the states that provide the same services as well as many more services too. The break down of some of the expenses show why continuing to fund planned parenthood would not be the best solution for the tax payers money.
