our current republican democracy in the United States there are term limits for the president‚ but not for congressmen. Members of the House of Representatives serve two-year terms and are considered for reelection every even year. Senators‚ however‚ serve six-year terms and elections to the Senate are staggered over even years so that 1/3 of the Senate is up for reelection during any election. This system of nonexistent term limits for Congress is vulnerable to corruption‚ is close-minded‚ and deviates

Whether there should be term limits in congress is a very heated debate in today’s society. Career politicians were not a threat to the system of Congress that the founding fathers created. They were still trying to create a system that worked for everyone. Except in today’s society‚ that is a little different story. Some politicians try to stay in office as long as possible‚ not to help the public but to benefit themselves. Now let me establish some common ground. The citizens of the United States

While viewing the video‚ the first thought that originated within me was the idea that hate has no limits. Hate has no color‚ no boundaries‚ and defiantly no limits. The people depicted within the video were people from all different backgrounds. No two groups shared the same characteristics when it came towards their turn to be a victim of hate. Whites killed other whites due to views about religion‚ class‚ and superiority. Race is not always black and white. Hate actually isn’t about color at all

Investigating the Limits of Cell Growth Background: To find factors that limit cell growth In multicellular organisms‚ In order for an organism to grow cells must divide through mitosis. Cell division happens after the cell is big enough so the daughter cells will be replicated without any flaws. The regulation and amount of materials that can enter and leave the cell is based on how large the cells surface area is. The rate of movement is also determined by the volume of the cell. Many factors like

Although issues could arise with constant technological development‚ I believe that research should be limited only when an issue arises and ethics are questioned. There has never been a period where humans stopped

With this ticket I have learned that it is not okay to speed. You should always pay attention while driving no matter how experienced you are. You never know what could happen. There is no need to travel at a faster speed than the one that is set by the law. I have learned that you don’t need to rush to get places. You will get there eventually. I don’t need to be in such a hurry going places. Speeding does not help you get anywhere faster. All speeding does is increase your chances of injuries
