Personal Reflection

 I believe that my religion has not affiliated with my values or beliefs honestly. I feel this way because i was never raised in a religious family. Living in Jacksonville N.C. there are many ways it has affected my beliefs. Having a military base the size of Camp Lejuene I feel  as though every state that is on a border should have one with that many military personnel. My gender affects me by saying that I should  have respect for women. Also that I should work to provide for my family someday. My family isn't religious at all. They just refer to what their parents say about honor thy mother and thy father and what not. My race doesn't affect my values because i believe everyone is equal.

 With my beliefs I feel half of the focuses are irrelevant with me because I see myself as an individual. i say this because from the quiz i took on the computer it was referred to everything an individual is.By what I believe my values are I feel as though it only matters with equality, liberty, and individualism. My definitions with the three focuses were actually similar when you compare them. I would say they are the same definition because from what i believe in is similar to what the general public would say.

Russia Conflict

  As we all know Russia has been trying to take over the Ukraine from out of no where. From what we know by what our government tells us Vladimir Putin has became a relentless man who apparently doesn't know what he wants. To prevent U.S. involvement he has fired a non-nuclear warhead to show us that he is prepared for war. As of now it has come to the attention of all countries that we may be in the event of a third world war. As America has told Russia to get out of Crimean Peninsula it was clearly stated that the Russian government will not buy from any  U.S. goods (boycotting) which will severe the U.S government worse.

This would relate to the class by stating worldwide events that affect our government and our country. It also deals with worldwide problems and how the U.S. will always intervene if it's something that could threaten us.

I personally feel that we will have to intervene but not by demanding Russia to get out of the Peninsula. There are many ways to deal with negotiations of a country who feels they are entitled to everything. Though Vladimir Putin hasn't demanded anything yet so I can't really say we have a negotiation but the U.S. is discussing economic terms I guess to make Russia feel like they're getting something out of this whole conflict.

Obama Care Affect on American Lives

Obama care has taking a dramatic affect on the American society. The elderly believe that since Obama care has taken affect they will not be covered by Medicare. Doctors are now declining government health programs. Obama care has resulted in over 800,000 jobs lost in the past year. By 2019 over 80 million people will be on medicare. That will result in billions of dollars. Today Obama care has spend trillions of dollars on new healthcare spending. All that I have listed above are true facts that have been concluded to what Obama care will cause. As a country we should make a better plan to fix this catastrophe.  I feel as though that in the next years are country will be in turmoil by Obama care and many more insane ideas.

In my opinion I can't say anything because I don't pay or do anything. Although i asked my father how he feels Obama care will affect him and he said too many mean words. To clarify that Obama care did take affect as of January 1st 2014, right now we are all being affected. The question would be "Will Congress take this matter into their hands." I am just baffled at how much of an impact this has caused on our lives today. Congress should just repeal this law because in the end it's going to cost too much at the point where we will never be out of debt.
