Who is Wealthier?

I think Bill is more wealthy because he has a great loving family which is worth more than 100,000 piece of paper. If Bob is working non stop and has hardly any time for his family what kind of life is that? To me it seems like Bill is the one living the American dream he's the one working at the mines, has the perfect family, is a steady church goer, and has a golden retriever running around on his lawn. I also believe that Bill's children will be raised much better because Bill and his wife are still together unlike Bob's and they dont have everything given to them like Bob's. Just by reading about Bill you can tell people would get along with him and he would have much more friends than Bill who's "friends" just use him for the money he has and so they can go to the party he throws at his camp.

Bailout

I do not agree with the government bailing out all these people. The reason for my belief is that the government is just prolonging these different corporations from failing again. If these people let their companies fall out wont they do it again? On the other side our country needs these banks to stay alive in the market but if they are to just fail again I still cant see a reason for the bailout in the long run.
I also do not agree with the government bailing out these extremely lazy people who simply quit or dont try any harder when they have to pay their bills for items they shoudlnt be recieving in the first place. If someone just expects to recieve everything from the government who is that going to help our economy any? The people who work their butts off day and night are the ones who should recieve certain discounts or tax cuts and that way they will purchase more items bettering the economy and hopefully creating a goal for those lazy people out their who expect everything to be handed to them.

Bailout

In my opinion I don't think the government should be lending out money they don't necessarily have themselves. It doesn't help these people are buying expensive homes with low income. Not only should the government not lend money to people they should for sure never borrow some 300 billion dollars just to one place. Just borrowing money to people with low money is in turn not going to benefit the economy. These people borrowing are used to be taken care of, so why should they be recieving money from our government who's in debt themselves? People who are the hard workers, the ones who always do their work and show up on time. These people are the ones who should recieve tax cuts and other things to set a goal for the lazier workers of America.

New President

By America electing Barack Obama for the next presidency finally shows how much we have matured since the time of Martin Luther King. I pretty excited about Obama winning because he has the oppurtunity to be the successful African American president. That would be pretty exciting to have a famous president during my lifetime .Other foreign nations seem to be pretty happy with the change America has made also and I think that because of electing Barack Obama we will get the change that we need to bring our economy back to the top.

Negative Campaigning

Negative Campaigning is when the candidate is trying to win an advantage by reffering to negative aspects of an opponent or of a policy rather than emphasizing one's own positive attributes or preffered policies. I strongly disagree with the use of negative campaigning, politicians win by simply degrading each other and they are spending more time finding things to put down their opponent than trying to solve our financial and economical crisis.

Schwat did you do on the weekend?

This weekend went by extremely fast. Starting off the weekend was the high school football game which we won against Munising 33-6. After the game I slept at Rudy's house however Vince and Rudy fell asleep at 12:30. Early afternoon on Saturday I had the Coed tennis tournament with Kaylin and we pretty much rocked the house. After the tennis tournament Vince, Jason, and I went to border grill and then back to their house to chillax. Later on that night we took went to take a sauna but somehow there was no power in his garage so we went back inside and yet again Vince fell asleep early. Sunday I didn't do much just watched some football then went and lifted and watched film later on.

Ahh, the candidates

For the next presidential election my family and I are all voting for Barack Obama. Most of my family is fairly democratic, which is why we are all voting for Obama. We are also voting for Obama because Mccain is just looking like another Bush which my family definitely doesn't want; our country needs something different. Although I don't keep up with each of the candidates proposals I believe Obama is the better choice for this presidential election.

How would you feel if your city got hit by a hurricane?

If my city got hit by a hurricane I think I would be so startled and scared that I wouldn't know what to do. The pain I would be feeling would be for the others around me and the materialistic things my family would lose. I can't even imagine what it would be like to lose not only your home but your entire city to a hurricane.
Luckily I live in a place where there are no hurricanes and we don't have to worry about there destruction.

Why Homecoming is so important?

Homecoming is important to show school spirit and get some excitement during school for the football game. Homecoming also allows students a chance to express themselves and have some fun while at school. I think most people look forward to homecoming spirit week is always fun and coaching the girls for the powderpuff football game is a blast. The fact that homecoming is something entertaining during our routine school schedule and that it brings our class together as a whole is what makes homecoming so important.

What did you do over the weekend?

I had a pretty laid back weekend spent most of my time on the computer and hanging out with my friends. On Saturday I hung out with one of my friends we played some pool, watched a couple movies, played on the computer, and just messed around. On Sunday I took it easy earlier and went to Marquette around lunch time. Later on around 4:30 I left to go lifting and to watch film on our football game against Manistique.

If I was president...

If I was president I would be concerned about the people's health more than anything. However by just giving free health care to many people would be taken care of in hospitals, so it would be hard for everyone to get the treatment they need. Therefore instead of eliminating the cost of health care, the cost should be lowered to an affordable price depending on the income that person makes.
