Justified?

Taryn Luna wrote a blog about parenting problems in the Los Angeles Times blog. In Luna's blog, "California Assemblyman Joaquin Arambula says he was arrested after spanking his daughter," Luna talks about the events that occurred that day using quotes from Arambula's statement. Arambula was arrested on Monday on suspicion of cruelty to a child. This would be considered a misdemeanor under Californian law. Knowing his political line of work, this charge could ruin his career if he found guilty. Arambula's statement says that he does spank his children only when it comes necessary, but even then he claims he only does it at last resort. Arambula said that children when growing up can sometimes act out and it is important as a parent to educate and discipline their child. I too agree with Arambula's statement, a parent is responsible for disciplining their kids when they act out. If one does not discipline their kids they can grow and become irresponsible. The a...

Government Issue

The president of the United States, Donald Trump, is trying to stop immigration in the US and Mexican border by building a massive wall diving the two. Trying to build this wall would be too expensive, and that would mean that taxes would increase for everyone. The United States already has a large debt, and building the wall would only add billions of dollars more. Also I think that America is constantly growing, and it needs more workers to do minimum wage jobs. Americans don't like working for the minimum wage, but immigrants come to the US to try to achieve the American dream and that is by working. Though it might not be the correct approach big business like the idea of having minimum wage workers. Another reason why building the wall is unnecessary is because many immigrants already come illegally to the United States. The wall would just be a waste of money as they will find other methods to access the country. People will not stop trying to achieve the American Dream becau...

Another Government Issue

The government issue I would like to talk about today is the minimum wage. The federal minimum wage today is 7 dollars and 25 cents per hour. That is awfully low for a family. While this amount would barely if even enough for one adult. Working 40 hour weeks this would earn a person just over 15,000. For someone who has a family this is not enough for a living. Instead if the minimum wage is increased to something more reasonable, not only would it create more jobs but it would allow for the circulation of more money. People will be making more money, therefore they will also be spending more. That is pretty much how the economy works. The more someone has to spend. The more they will spend. Also the poverty level would decrease as well. The newly created jobs will allow people to become employed, and it will also make more people be over the line of poverty. And with more people over the line of poverty, the government has to spend less on welfare programs for the poor. The government...
