The following links are to articles from Friday's USA Today. These are the types of problems we are facing. Can any of the presidental canidates do anything about this? Do they care?
As you all probably know, I like to stir up trouble. I've managed to keep my mouth shut on two recent occasions at school, but that doesn't mean that I still wasn't angry. Or that Joe didn't hear about it later. Now, I am stirring up trouble with some horse people I don't even know. Its about the animal ID acts. Admittedly, I don't know a whole lot about it but I think that they are good things that will prevent disease outbreaks. And most of all, I am tired of people thinking that this is just another way for the government to play big brother and get people's money. All I did was when I got one of those emails telling me that the animal ID laws are horrible, I told them that I didn't think so and I got back some venomous responses. Someone used the seatbelt law in as a reference. Seriously? Saying that it would be just like the seatbelt laws that said that you wouldn't be pulled over unless it was for something else too. Honestly, if you're not wearing you're seatbelt you probably should be pulled over for being an idiot. Whatever. People are dumb. They don't want help but the minute something would happen, they are there asking for handouts.
Well, my block didn't end as well as I had hoped. I had the slight possiblity to increase my grades in three classes. But that was dashed and I'll have to settle with the grades I have. This block looks hard. All of these f-ed up grading scales and 100 points in a class. Total. Not just on a test. IN THE CLASS. And then they wanted us to buy $300+ worth of books. I'm not going to unless I really have to. Then I'm going to be mad about it.
