National Debt
The national debt has always been a major concern
of the american public, whether they truely know what it is
all about or not. What most people do know is that the debt
that our country has is continualy growing faster and faster
at an unbelievable rate, toan amount that many of us can not
even imagine. The national debt and it's problem has been an
on going issue in today's headlines, and each president is
faced with this buring problem. President Clinton tried
to install a balanced budget plan during his current
term in office, however it lost 99-1. Althought the
public was not able to vote on this plan directly, we, or
at least I have an opinion concerning the issue.
I personally believe that the fact that our nation
is constantly growing more in debt by the minute is a major
problem. Although that techincally we do not have to
pay it, is not the point. What is the point is that we
are a nation that is in debt. According to reports, since
1981, our national debt has grown faster than our economy
has, which to me seems to be a problem. If this debt
was to be spread out among the people it would be more
than the average american would be able to pay. We therefore,
need some sort of policy that wouldeventurally cut our national
debt to some reasonable amount. A new policy would help by
lowering the currentinterest rates, which in turn would allow
for moreinvestment to occur. This would raise our real GNP of
the economy. This increse in investment would also
increase our national savings as well, which would lead
to an increase in the national income average of our
nation's average families. Considering the amount
of our debt, this healing process needs to be done over
a long period of time. According to research, if done
to quickly it would only hurt the current economy. If
we are going to cut the governmental sevices it will
need to be done in small doses. This will enable the
average american to respond and prepare for the cuts.
That way the american will not be hit as hard by the
governmental cuts if they are prepared, and the effects
will not be as harsh.
The country needs to start monitoring how the government is spending the federal budget and they need to start splitting it fairly to benefit our country. 83% of the federal budget is spent on the Big Five which are the main expenses in the budget. We have to stop spending it all on the Big Five. Our government should really pay attention to what we need most of in this country and focus on the needs. The government needs to take away 20% of the Big Five and split it to categories that need it.
were left feeling anxious and afraid. Aware of the frame of mind of his audience, Kennedy delivered his speech so that it would render encouragement. Also, Kennedy made reference to God to attract the large Christian background congregation. Kennedy’s last verse in his address states, “God’s work must truly be our own.” Having related his goals to those of God’s, he furthermore gains recognition from the audience.
John F. Kennedy chose to write this essay because he was attempting to show us the vision the he had for our world. Kennedy’s purpose of writing the “Inaugural Address” was to challenge us to change our way of thinking and become better not only for ourselves, but for our country so that we may function more efficiently. The major groups Kennedy addresses in his speech are the United States and the other nations who are enemies of the United States. Kennedy’s central point for the entire essay is that we as a nation need to defend our freedoms all around the world. In order to defend our freedoms we must stop fighting amongst each other and join together in unison. We have the ability to share all different types of ideas, cultures, and experiences.
However the interest we pay on our nation 's debt is very small compared to the overall budget. According to the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities only 7% of the total budget is spent on interest which is relatively low compared to things like social security which took up 24% of the budget in 2014 (Policy Basics). As long as the United States can continue to keep the interest rates low the debt will continue to be a begin threat. If the creditors of the U.S. were to spike their interest rates, America would be in trouble, however America has fairly good credit, and it should remain that way unless there is another scare like the government shutdown in 2011 (Riley). Overall the threat of the nation debt is a very minute problem in the grand scheme of things. According to The Richest, only five nations in the entire world are completely debt free, which is astounding when you consider that there are about 195 countries in the entire world (Mathers; How Many). These figures show how extremely difficult it is for a country to run without having a certain amount of debt, and America having debt should not be a concern. America is not even in the top ten countries whose debt make up the majority of their GDP (Country List). Which means that at the moment American’s should not be overly
Funerals have been around as long as humans have. “Research indicates that as far back as 50,000 years ago, man exhibited concern for the dead” Lensing (2001) stated. The Egyptians, Greeks and Romans also had rituals about death and the possibility of an afterlife. The Middle Ages society was one of the first socities to accpet the idea that death was a part of life and that all people had to die. Also during the Middle Ages, rituals of mourning became evident. In the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries the mourning rituals became more elaborate. The rituals included ornate tombstones and a plethora of mourning paraphernalia Lensing (2001).
Analyzing all points of view, a great amount of individuals ask themselves why should the government forgive student debts. When our national debt is already sky-high, giving money away (forgiving) will only up the bill our country already has, according to Debt to the Penny (2014) our current debt today is $17,858,510,713,719.34. Another huge concern is the possibility of higher taxes! Government has to find a way to recover the money some way right? Why should the debt free individuals
Living in a society where several cultures and religious beliefs are represented, such an event as memorable as death is bound to be celebrated differently. The paper attempts to look at the various ways different culture and religious practices prepare the body of the deceased for burial and the role of health care workers.
One of the most influential speeches by President John F, Kennedy contains guiding words for civilians to follow. The speech contains a statement that clarifies any possible controversy that surrounds not only his presidency, but also his life. With the statement by President Kennedy “I believe in an America where the separation of church and state is absolute” (Kennedy 486) he is stating religion, especially his religion, will have no affect on his administration if elected president. This further goes with the history of the nation and its religious freedom. The hopes of the nation and its civilians are what President Kennedy hoped to inspire with his words
During the Great Depression, while the competitors were cutting costs and reusing outdated designs, Kress was expanding and building more elaborate stores than their previous ones. The architecture was referred to as an “emporium” evoking an elegant atmosphere more suited to a fine cloth or furniture store in New York rather than the five & dime stores dotting small town America. Many wonder what the driving force was behind these design decisions, especially during a national time of economic recession. Perhaps simply to outpace the competition, but perhaps more importantly Samuel Kress was an avid art collector and a proponent of public art enhancing a community. In this way the Kress legacy of the brand became more than a retail business, it became a symbol of small town civic pride.
It is said to bring down the danger of lethal heart sicknesses and can battle disease. Researchers are mindful of the way that the opposition to oxidants exhibit in loose green tea can battle against tumor. As indicated by late disclosure, it has been assembled that a few chemicals in green can disturb a particle that is in charge of the advancement of tumor. Green tea helps in weight reduction, supports the insusceptibility, diminishes cholesterol levels, glucose, and hypertension, counteracts tooth rot, and has different profits also. Drinking natural loose leaf tea from the high end tea brands can be useful for the wellbeing for various reasons. Research has demonstrated that the opposition to viral and hostile to bacterial operators in natural tea keeps some regular viral infections and tooth rot. It additionally helps in processing and unwinds the
In law there are two types of land, registered and unregistered. It is necessary to register land so the register precisely reflects the state of the registered property, so it is clear to see who the current owner is and whether there are any third party proprietary interests affecting it; this is important as it would make many lal enquiries easier and will show the property’s reality to any future purchasers. The purpose of land registration according to Gray and Gray (2008) is that “any prospective purchaser of registered land should always be able to verify, by simple examination of the register, the exact nature of all the interests existing in or over the land which he proposes to buy”. There are three main principles of land registration: the insurance principle, curtain principle and the mirror principle. The mirror principle which essentially means that the register reflects reality hence all facts significant to the land title are to be found on the register. The significant facts that should be included in the register are “the owner, the nature of his ownership, and any limitations on his ownership and any rights enjoyed by other persons over the land that are adverse to the owner”. However this is not always the case as some third party proprietary interests override registered dispositions, these are called overriding interests. Overriding interests are binding on a purchaser of any registered land even though they are not on the register.
One of the special concepts in land law is of overriding interests. The standard practice in the English land law is all the interest and rights affecting or is binding over particular a land should be registered in the Register. However, the concept of overriding interest denotes that there are interests which are binding on the owner (the registered proprietor) regardless of not being formally registered. It was introduced because in that era it was though that it would be unreasonable and unjust to overlook such rights and interest enjoyed. Overriding interests need not be registration to bind the legal owner of the land. Therefore, if the land is sold to another person the interests and rights would not be lost. It can be said that overriding by nature are unregistered if they are registered they will cease to be an overriding interest.
White tea has up to thrice as much antioxidants as other types of teas. It has fluorides, tannins and flavonoids including catechins and polyphenols. How do all these antioxidants and flavonoids improve your health? Let’s look at some of the ways in which white tea can be beneficial to you.
Green tea is made from the plant Camellia Sinensis’s leaves without fermentation (Suzuki, Miyoshi & Isemura, 2012) and is regarded as a popular and healthy drink in Asian countries because of its health-promoting potentials such as protecting against cancer and cardiovascular disease (Harvard Health Publications, 2012; Iwasaki et al., 2014). Lots of the positive effects are due to the antioxidative activity of (-)-epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) which is a major component of green tea (Suzuki et al., 2012). And it draws researchers’ interests and attentions to further investigate. According to Suzuki et al., one example of the health advantages is that catechins in green tea bring an anti-obesity effect by stimulating lipid metabolism in liver (2012).
In adolescent development, socially constructed stigmas often stunt the advancement of self-expression, there is an idealistic and commonly harsh shaming that is enforced through western social normativity. As such there is an inherent fear that is fostered (at least initially) by many youn...
