The government sets certain days aside to allow people to appreciate what is around them. Valentine's Day is a day to express love and forgiveness to others. Most people do this by giving gifts such as: candy, flowers, and cards. Children in grade school express love for their teachers, parents, and friends by making cards. ... More..
Politics, News & Issues > Energy Issues Ways to save water at home: 14 of 42
I do not think most people consider ways to save water because it is so free flowing. Some even believe that water is God given and man has no right to tax it. I think people should also consider the 'what if ' of the situation. What if the water system was shut off in the city? What if the water became too polluted to use? ... More..
Politics, News & Issues > News (Other) US food safety organizations: Should they be overhauled or should a new, single agency be created?: 2 of 6
Since everyone is talking about change these days, why not have a major change in our food industry. I am talking about from the restaurants to the family farms. I believe that most illnesses are coming from what we put in our mouths. There is only one purpose for food: to sustain life. Your life is at risk everyday when foo... More..
Education > Teachers & Administrators Should students be held accountable for their failing grades: 1 of 3
I do not think students should be held accountable for a failing grade. Individual students make up a classroom. If most of the class cannot comprehend the material that is being taught, then the fault lies with the teacher. A good teacher has to be willing to try different ways to stimulate the brains of the students. There... More..
Health & Fitness > Substance Abuse & Addiction (Other) Are drug commercials pushing drug addiction?: 1 of 3
I do not believe commercials have anything to do with a person's decision to take drugs. Commercials are there to inform and make sales. Drug addiction largely has to do with the senses such as the olfactory nerve. Your sense of smell will determine how the addiction will affect your life. A lack of an important substance in... More..
Society & Lifestyle > Subcultures The hippie subculture: 12 of 35
When some people think of the hippie subculture they think of drugs, free love, freedom of expression, war protesters, plenty of concerts and government looked at as the enemy. I saw the hippie subculture as a pulpit that was not high enough. Everyone wanted to achieve something but no one wanted to listen. Now I see all the... More..

There are two things in life you cannot be One is wild and the other is free Wild things represents a danger in life Free things represents a dangerous mind Give yourself more choices Open the world with your thoughts Seek out ways to preach the truth Your wild side will be captured And freedom will be earned More..
Politics, News & Issues > Conservation How ending food waste would help the environment: 4 of 11
It is all about the environment and how we can protect ourselves from getting ill. I think we have to look at the way we produce food in this country. There is so much food in America that no one should be going hunger. Yes, there is plenty of food but, is it the type of foods that will produce healthy bodies? I do not think... More..
Food & Drink > Diet, Health & Organic Foods Is organic produce really worth more money?: 7 of 19
I do not think organic produce is really worth more money because we do not know if it is really organic. Anyone can put a label on something and say that it is when it isn't. I would have to go to an organic farm and watch the planting of the crops or the raising of the animals in order to satisfy my curiosity. Before that,... More..
Entertainment > Celebrity Commentary Why celebrities shouldn't be on the news: 7 of 19
Celebrities are people just like us. They have their good days and bad days. I do not think they are so special that they have to make news everyday. A celebrity should only be in the news when they have committed a crime or are dead. It does not make sense reporting every little thing they do. I have lost interest in them b... More..
