Pay Attention

I surely made a fool of myself yesterday. I thought that I was falling behind this week while in reality All I was falling behind in was science and one specific blog entry for Tuesday. So today I am going to be catching up in both of these subjects. The next two paragraphs are going to be based around my projects. One project was meant for today while the other is meant for Tuesday. Both are around government and questions that I was presented.

Starting with Tuesdays questions number 1 was "Do you agree with the idea of extending public financing of election campaigns to include congressional campaigns?"  Well I do agree with the public financing of the election campaigns. The reason why is because if you don't have very much money you will have to fund all of your own campaign. I don't think that every president was rich enough to fund all of the expenses. Question 2 was "Television can convey some - but not all - of a presidents personal and political qualities to an audience. What important presidential qualities do you feel cannot be transmitted by a television. How else do can a candidate for presidency can communicate these qualities?" Well first things first what qualities can't be shown on TV? I believe first off that the main quality that can't be shown on TV is how important this person will actually be to America. How do you get around this? well you can't exactly change what people think of you unless you lie quite a bit and that will lose you voters if anyone finds out. Finally question 3 was "The 26th amendment enabled 18-year olds to vote. In terms of percentage, however, far fewer members of this age bracket actually exercise their right to vote than is the case with any other age group. How can this be explained?" Well how else do you explain this without going for a basic truth. Most kids at the age of 18 are not interested in voting. I want to make it clear that I said most as there is some kids at the age of 18 who do vote but most kids at 18 are more interested in friends, girls, and stunts that would make them look cooler. What goes on in those brains of theirs varies by person and is quite hard to explain if you are not 18.

So second up is opinion writing about an article called the love business. A very interesting article about marriage in china. Explaining how competition in China is very hard as over in China you can only have one child and people then decided to do sex selective abortion. Most people didn't want girls as they don't help with continuing the family legacy. So there is a low demand for men and a very high demand for women. Since no one wants to have a girl it makes finding a wife for men an extremely hard task. Gong Haiyan decided to open up one of the first dating websites in china. All of a sudden it is a huge boom in the dating society as then it became easy for people to meet their soul mate instead off believing destiny to help them as in the article it states that many people do believe in destiny to help them. Quickly Gong became a millionaire with her extremely successful business.
