Homer’s cost to complete construction was $110,000. In addition, he will also have a $20,000 cost to replace the fireplaces. A party is required to mitigate damages, but the law…
“There used to be consequences to protesting. There are not anymore. These people are so bad for our country, you have no idea, folks.” In this statement the author is quoting a statement from Trump. Two logical fallacies presented here are stereotyping and begging the question. Trump is stereotyping all protesters saying that they are bad for this country and asking others to accept this statement as true without any proof.…
In the article that I found, it discusses how one of Trumps rallies was canceled due to violence. Trump was suppose to speak in Chicago sometime back sometimes in March. For the ones that had sat there for hours waiting for his appearance, they were not happy. Many times when a rally is suppose to happen, there is always going to be conflict between the protesters and the supporters. Some rallies may go well, others may…
Donald Trump’s call to “Make America Great Again” has polarized the nation, and is a very current and relevant example of corruption and violence infecting a modern revolution. Although unlike his liberal counterpart Bernie Sanders he hasn’t actually called for a “political revolution,” Donald Trump’s radical policies would be just as much of a departure from traditional American politics. He calls for the deportation of millions of illegal immigrants, a wall on the Mexican border, a ban on Muslims, and for companies based elsewhere to bring their jobs back to the United States. Ever since Trump gained the national spotlight he has been criticized for his Trump University scam and inciting violence among his supporters. When Trump University…
The author begins his paper by telling the audience that he was in Bethlehem Pennsylvania for a talk entitled “Making America As Good As Its Promise”. Hearing this, the audience obviously automatically thinks of Donald Trump’s campaign slogan “Make America Great Again” but the author quickly informs the audience that they have nothing in common with one another.…
A major focus of social constructionism is to uncover the ways in which individuals and groups participate in the creation of their perceived social reality. It involves looking at the ways social phenome are created, institutionalized, and made into traditions by humans. Socially constructed reality is seen as an ongoing, dynamic process in which reality is reproduced by people acting on their own interpretation and their own knowledge of it. By putting the value on culturally and personal renditions of reality, a therapist could easily apply this approach for culturally diverse clients. A challenge of culturally diverse clients is they often experience an expectation that they should conform their lives to the truths and realities of a more…
One of the immense problems in America is that everyone is opinionated, people have different thoughts and way of having their voices be heard, Paine states, “There is nothing to engender riots and tumults.” during 1791 America was still a brand new independent country, riots happened, whether small or big, this country never stood on its feet as one, always in disagreement. Even if we forward a few years ahead, one of the biggest riots, The New York Riot of 1863, this was caused during Lincoln's presidency because the people of the union were now being drafted to fight in the Civil War for a longer amount of time then they were originally supposed to. Even a look at today’s history, there are a lot of riots happening right now because of the election. Riots and protest present an example of…
In the historic 1994 midterm elections, Republicans won a majority in Congress for the first time in forty years, partly on the appeal of a platform called the Contract with America. Put forward by House Republicans, this sweeping ten-point plan promised to reshape government. Its main theme was the decentralization of federal authority, deregulation, tax cuts, reform of social programs, increased power for states, a balanced federal budget were its chief ambitions. With unusual speed, all ten items came to a vote in the House of Representatives within one hundred days, and the House passed nine of the ten measures. Yet, even Newt Gingrich who is was the Speaker of the House of Representatives and one of the key leaders of the so called Republican Revolution of the 1990’s compared the plan to the most important political reforms of the twentieth century, progress on the contract was delayed. Senate Republicans were slow to embrace it, Democrats in both chambers denounced it, and President Bill Clinton threatened to veto its most radical provisions. Only three of the least controversial measures had become law by the end of 1995 as Congress and the White House battled bitterly over the federal budget.…
Protests and civil disobedience guided his first week in office and are likely to continue throughout his next four years in office. Violent nationalism, perpetuating racism through policies, and presenting “alternative facts” are all early signs of fascism. I myself am angry, disappointed, and scared of what the next four years could hold. However, above all these feelings, I am passionate. The United has a dark history and a pretentious present but despite all its flaws, I continue to love my country. And because I love my country, I will continue to fight for my country along with the many others. Thus, the most patriotic thing one has to offer his country is dissent, dissent provides the mold for positive change in this world. If you’ve ever wondered what you would have done during the civil rights movement, now is the time to find out.…
Todays media and entertainment have recently been flooded with movies and TV shows based on a post apocalyptic world where the world has fallen into disarray and it has become every man for themselves. While there have been many terrible crimes against humanity our world hasn’t submitted to dissolution and in large part we have remained united. The reason the world hasn’t fallen back into such a primitive state is because of the social contract theory; the social contract theory is a theory about creating rules for humanity. Due to the social contract theory people had to change the way they thought and made decisions and these personal decisions eventually had a ripple effect on the larger community. Unlike theories in physical science, social…

In a world that freedom is guaranteed, you are able to do as you please. This place is great to be if there was a way to insure that everything you own will be safe and that people who destroy what’s yours will be penalized and justified. Life without rules is a place that can be chaotic when there is no one to help you protect your property. For a better world to be formed, people will have to give up most of their freedom to be secured and safe. As time goes on one world must end, but as one ends another begins. A life that is organized with rules and freedom that are equally shared between the people is the world that we live in now. The government is the reason why we can somewhat live in peace with each other. They pass laws in order to protect us, while trying to let people keep some of their freedom. As society progresses on, the more the government tries to take peoples freedom, the more they try to contain people like animals in a cage. The social contract and state of nature are two concepts that show how the government was created and how they make their rules in order for their people to be safe while still having freedom to do as they desire.…
Just over the past few weeks, people have been out in the streets with signs protesting against Donald Trump’s presidency and sexism towards women. Although no laws or great changes have occurred in society, it has brought some people together under a cause, creating a sense of unity, a rarity today. It is within these marches and protests that the true voices of these movements can be heard as one. Though, it can be argued that these acts of civil disobedience have had a negative affect on society, as some turned violent, causing a greater divide between the two major political parties in the United States. However, in rebuttal, the two parties have always been divided and peaceful protests always have stray members that lash out violently, as seen before in the civil rights movement. Again, if history were to repeat itself, small improvements in society will be seen slowly as time progress, as this is how peaceful resistance works.…
ISSUE: Is there a legally enforceable contract for the sale of gold between Terry and Susan?…
The U.S. has been a controversial place in the past decade with different people stepping up into power and new controversies that are dividing the public. Trump's Speech was his plan to how he is going to help this division in this country. Trump says in his speech “building a safe, strong and proud america”. He says this was what he has done since he has been in office. On the other hand, many people think that he has been doing the opposite, and separating this country even more than before. But many people optimistic for the change in this country and that most of the division fades away over the years. Many social issues are small and only are argued about by a little amount of people. But many…
