Government In A Life-Threatening Crisis

A Nation at Risk Part 1: A Nation at Risk was and is a document that in essence gave/gives a call to arms to wake up the American nation in regards to mediocrity within education. The report changed high schools to include more necessary core classes for the American high school student and brought about other forms of changes for American schools. It has brought about both negative and positive results in the reform towards successful education of all students. It was imperative to bring about awareness of the decline in educational results, but the modes of transition are still in need of great adjustments. Overall, the A Nation at Risk document set in motion the road for alteration within the American education system which

In my opinion governments, primary purpose should be to protect citizens rights, freedoms and maintain law and order internally. They provide this service through the court of justice, legislation and police force. However, this cannot be the only form of protection they provide. Another way the government protects the citizens is through rules, inspections and regulations of companies and products. For example, without Federal regulation organizations such as the FDA, we would not have any form of vetting when it comes to consumer products. Government also is responsible for social services such as building roads, bridges and any means of transformation that aid the public. This is a significant and necessary role government plays for

The responsibilities of government are to protect its citizens by such means as our armed services or military weapons. Government is to ensure there is a way of fairly maintaining order as an example our police, National Guard, and to ensure every citizen has equal access to items, products, goods such as schools, and highways. However, government or politics often has a negative connotation too many as it is viewed as a way for lobbyists and those with money to make policies that are important or in some way helpful to them. Many view politics as dishonest and that politics is a manner in which someone or group benefits for their own advantage and not for society as a

One Function that stands out is to ensure domestic Tranquility. Domestic Tranquility is the government’s responsibility to make sure all citizens are able to live peacefully. It’s supposed to protect its people from threats such as rebellion, riots, or any criminal activity. This is important because without peace there’s chaos and it doesn’t ensure the safety of the American people and with out its people what will be left to govern. If there’s peace it

My English professor instructed my class and me to read a few passages written by George Lakoff a book titled “Don’t Think of an Elephant! Know Your Values and Frame the Debate the essential guide for progressives”. George Lakoff, who is the leading authority in political framing, communicates his metaphor

In John Locke's Second Treatise of Government, he identifies a government that is of the peoples consent with his essential raison d΄être being the preservation and protection of personal property. This type of government is extremely comparable with the type of government that St. Augustine describes in his work

The proper role of government is one that does not take total control and instead gives control to the people. There are several things that would make a government's role a proper one. Some of these things are the economic system, the way they treat their citizens and the

The most important risk mentioned in the paper, “A Nation at Risk,” is that more and more young people are graduating from high school not ready for college nor work. The educational system that America once prided itself on is now jeopardized by mediocracy. This brings me to another important

Philosophers have struggled with determining the proper role of government. In the absence of government and laws, people could do whatever they wanted, and some of them would try to slaughter others and steal their property. This is the state called anarchy. People have realized that the safety of the people and the country would be in jeopardy in such a state. Thus, it is necessary for a country to have a government and/or ruler.
