    The article describes how we are will to show our lives on social media for anyone to see not realizing how much is not private. Then talks about how upset we get when the Government is looking at us.

    Data shared is data glared and the whole world is ready to see what a person is socially about. Its a situation that has a lot of people worried after they are usually suffering the consequences of freely putting out their information for the world to see. It seems that these popular user friendly social site are conditioning the average user to do so and the government eye is also watching.

    I couldn't agree with this article anymore! We complain about how we have no privacy from the government and everything we do or say is being monitored but then we go an post very personal and open things on Facebook and Twitter for everyone to see. It's okay for us to do it to ourselves but once the government does something we immediately put all the blame on them.

    I agree 100% with what this article is saying. How can we complain about living in a "big brother" society, when we post every aspect of our lives on social media websites? I see some postings on Facebook from people that literally record every hour of their day, from the time they wake up, to the time they log off and go to bed.
  • Brandon Charette on 02 Sep 13
     
    I think this article is ideal to make people aware, because when regarding social networks, who really reads the privacy policies and such? That being said, this is a scary thing. Sometimes we don't even realize we're posting our location all over the web.

    This article is eye opening. Most of us use social media to stay connected to friends and family. I'm sure I have been guilty of similar situations.

    It is amazing how much information people put out there. At work, we have to take compliance courses every year. Just last year, they added a couple of modules on social media, and what is expected of you in relation to the information about work that you put out there.

    This is a list of rights and benefits same-sex marriages will received from tax and government benefits to medical and family benefits. At the end it also tells that this benefits are only for same-sex couples that live in certain states and how these do NOT apply to domestic partners or the civil union.
  • Monique Espinoza on 07 Sep 13
     
    I found this website very helpful in the breakdown of benefits that same-sex couples are looking to gain through marriage. Which further added to my support of gay marriages.

    This guy has some interesting ideas. Ending the war on drugs by legalizing drugs and taxing them for profit and allowing people to consume or not consume anything they choose seems a bit extreme. I do agree that a rebalance of taxes would benefit the hard working middle class families.
  • Davina Moyer on 02 Sep 13
     
    A really good article with a lot of good ideas. I especially liked the idea about fixing the infrastructure. I saw a special a few years ago talking about how the infrastructure was deteriorating and I can only imagine it's gotten worse.

    Late-adolescence are acting and becoming more grown up than past years. Many high school students are wanting to grow up fast and experiance new life as their older peers, no matter what the cost is. Families need to protect and make sure they talk to their adolescent childrent so he or she will not go down the wrong path. Parents need to show them what exactly an adult goes through and thier responsibility they endure to be a successful adult.

    Our first amendment is freedom of speech. Speech also includes written word. The supreme courted ruled that protests at military funerals, is freedom of speech..
  • Albert Morales on 30 Jan 12
     
    U.S Supreme Court ruled that protest at military funerals was okay, because of the first amendment. Chief Justice John Roberts said that protestors could not be held accountable for the damages sought by the family of a fallen Marine. Speech is powerful. People have rights, but often they take it too far.

    With the help of libertarians New York was the largest state to legalize same sex marriage. New York is only the sixth state to legalize same sex marriage. Many power officials were reprimanded for speaking out against same sex marriage. Same sex marriage has also affected some religious adoption agencies. A catholic adoption agency has been reprimanded for refusing the adoption to a same sex family.
  • Kat Brock on 26 Jan 12
     
    This article shows how the Libertarian party has very conflicting views regarding same sex marriage. On one hand, same sex marriage corresponds with the Libertarian motto. On the other hand, however, many Libertarians are torn between their party's motto and what they inherently believe to be "true marriage."

    Due to a West Virginia child who decided to refrain from the pledge due to his religious believes the mandatory pledge as been removed from schools nationwide. This family took this argument to the Supreme Court. The courts found that mandatory pledge went against two amendments. Since the court found that the pledge was not longer mandatory in schools children are able to make the decision to participate.

    The issue of whether or not patients have a right to die is explored, as well as whether or not those who help such people should be considered murderers. It gives anecdotes about family members who could not bear to see their loved ones suffer, and offers opinions on both sides of the issue.

    This article touches on the debate of assisted suicide. Some people are pro, believing that once one has lost their quality of life they should be able to make the decision to end their own(with assistance, since, for whatever reason, they are unable to commit suicide on their own). Other people are against assisted suicide, believing there are situations where it would go against personal moral codes of doctors or nurses, or that the person pleading to die may change his/her mind and it will be too late.

    I may not agree with same sex marriage but when you look at the fundamental rights that a couple would have, it seems like the right thing to do is to allow it. They should be given the same rights that a typical husband and wife have.

    This article was written about the risks concerning cohabitation. There are more and more families living in cohabitation today. This article was written to determine if there is in fact a higher divorce rate among couples that live together before marriage and among couples that get married right away.

    This website shows a very good side of why the government should keep away from limiting the personal freedoms in the internet. Also, goes a little into online gambling
  • Becky Silvas on 07 Sep 11
     
    Some believe that parents should take control what happen in their families. Those same parents wants the government to handle what happen with other and their lifestyles. The government is trying to decide how to control how a person gambles with or without the interenet. Who are we to tell someone when to gamble and how often to gamble. The internet is a freedom to do what we want to do in it. Each familiy should not be told what to search or what game to play when using the internet.
