I doubt anyone in this class is someone I know so i’ll break the ground and point out, I do get social security checks, and they are to compensate for the money my mother was making since she died 9 years ago, and while the money has helped me get into college because my family […]
Of all my posts I made for this first half, I would have to say it would be my most recent post titled, “the moral debate”. I feel as though in comparison to all my other posts, it best relates and applies to its topic given, while pointing out most sides to the subject, it […]
The most difficult decision I’ve found as to whether or not to aid the poor is morally as to whether or not it was in truth, a “good idea”. For example, if I knew the ones I were helping were basically screwed over in taxes, or some program or government related issue or even tragic […]
I noticed a recurring pattern about trades in the past, and it is that many things that have become universally used such as animal transportation like horses, tools, and even some foods, none of which were originally introduced to that area, have been made popular in that area mainly due to either trade, or aid […]

Well, I believe the worst outside of college life has passed, (knock on wood) Now that im done driving everyone everywhere that was in dire straights such as my dad losing his job and not having a car, and most other problems, I can finally get some bloody time to use the computer. I missed a […]
Well to be honest, I was worried given this is my first ever year at college, and since once I make it through, i’ll be the first of 2 family lines to to do so and see it through, and I was even more worried when I knew I had to take this class online […]
