Pro-choice has been a major topic ever since the women’s movements started in the early 1970’s, a question sometimes asked is that, if part of the population are so pro-life and worry about protecting a fetus, how come when the child is conceived they suddenly bash at you for having that unwanted child anyways, and that is hypocritical. In this essay, details include would be why people choose to be pro-choice, NARAL Pro-Choice America, the battle for reproductive justice for women and their right to make decisions for their body, advocates that are pro-choice, proposals for a pro-choice government, and Tomi Lahren being fired for stating she was pro-choice.

For hundreds of years, women have been fighting for one basic thing; women want to be equals and have the rights to their lives and bodies. Women have been fighting for the right to own property, to vote, to have equal pay and to have reproductive rights. While each has been a struggle, reproductive rights are one of the most controversial, argued topics. It is more widely accepted for men to walk away from a pregnancy, but women do not have the same option without being hassled at every turn. Whether agreed on morally or not, a woman should have a choice in having an abortion or carrying to the point of viability, meaning when a fetus can sustain life outside the womb.

Just think about a human race free of genetic disease where everyone is intelligent and where society and technology advance at staggering rates. This is the future that is envisioned by those who advocate eugenics. Eugenics is the study of methods to improve the human race by selection of parents based on their inherited characteristics (Hartl). The idea was first discussed by Sir Francis Galton in the 1880’s, but was widely unaccepted by people at first due to fear that it would take away their basic human rights and be misused (Hartl). In the early 20th century, eugenics was a very popular and widespread idea in the United States and there were laws created to encourage certain people to have children, while discouraging others from procreating (Morris 66). The main reason eugenics has fell into such disfavor is because the Nazis cited it as the reason for the Holocaust (Morris 66). The use of eugenics by the Nazis can be compared to the use Islam by ISIS, or the use of Christianity by the Westboro Baptist Church. It is a concept that can be misused based on interpretation and extremism. Eugenics itself is just an idea to improve the human race by selective breeding, not by killing millions. Forms of eugenics should be implemented in society because they eliminate genetic diseases and problems, spread favorable traits and attributes, create a more intelligent and less flawed society, and help advance the human race as a whole.

World Hunger, what is it? Why is it a problem? And what can we do to fix it? Most United States citizens don’t know what it’s like to go hungry and without food. We are a very blessed country. We are so blessed and ungrateful that we manage to waste 165 billion dollars worth of food each year. The U.S. can’t even begin to imagine how they feel. According to the dictionary hunger is “the uneasy or painful sensation caused by the want of food”. There are people out there that can’t sleep at night because of that feeling. Starvation victims are too tired and weak to even know when they’re thirsty. They can’t even sense it. They become very dehydrated. Every time they move it starts to become painful because day by day their muscles are wasting away. Hunger, that feeling, none of us want to have to experience that. Truth is none of us should have to.

The whole point of eugenics is so that the human race can evolve more sufficiently and also more beneficial to the later generations. Using it we can improve our babies, their babies and so on to create smarter and stronger human beings. But then again some people see it that we are playing god or destroying variety.

“Overpopulation occurs when an organism 's numbers exceed the carrying capacity of its habitat.” (Global Footprint Network) As humans, people use a lot of resources to help themselves. “Today humanity uses the equivalent of 1.6 planets to provide the resources we use and absorb our waste. This means it now takes the Earth one year and six months to regenerate what we use in a year.” (Global Footprint Network) The ratio of resources used to the amount of resources the Earth provides is so off balanced; this ratio could worsen if there was more people on it. In addition, “we will need the equivalent of two Earths to support us.” (Global Footprint Network) Overpopulation is becoming such a major problem that we would need that extra planet in space to support us.

World Hunger, did you know that every 3.6 seconds someone dies from being malnourished. That’s roughly 24,000 people that die in a day. For example, the town I live in, Greenville, IL is 6758 people. Can you visualize four towns the size of Greenville being destroyed in one day due to everyone dying of starvation? Looking at it from this point of view, it’s heart wrenching and unethical for us as humans to let another die. Did you know that America has the largest obesity rate in the World? We have nearly 109,342,839 obese people in this county. (Re New: Bariatrics, 2017) Why couldn’t these obese people contribute to the hungry? Instead, we are selfish and cold-hearted creatures, at times. Many people in Africa and South America Countries live in such great poverty that their lives are filled with only with the necessities of daily survival. I am going to argue today why I feel we can make a difference and why we should sacrifice for the global poor. One reason I argue is because I think it is possible to fight world hunger. Two, is it’s unfortunate that other countries governments have so much to do with hunger and the poor. Lastly, I think we can all help if we just try to do so by giving back in small amounts because it’s morally right to do so.

A lot of people have not heard of Eugenics because of the dark past in the history of not only the United States but also across Europe. What does it mean to have a perfect world? Back in the 1920s they had an idea to create a world that only included a certain idea of whom the best type of people were. This may sound like an interesting idea but the price of our own human decency was taken in which human life did not mean the same for everyone. Most people are unaware of what Eugenics is because it is not a proud point in the United States, so it does not get taught or talked about very often.

Overpopulation is blamed for many of todays problems around the world including poverty, hunger, and war. In reality, overpopulation is not the issue. In fact, the term “overpopulation” shouldn’t even be used because it makes one infer that there is too many people on this planet. That, however, is not true. There are plenty of resources to go around and the population may actually be declining instead of growing. Overpopulation will not be an issue for the future of planet Earth because the poverty rate is decreasing, there is plenty of food for everyone, and birth rates are going down.

In an interview with TODAY’s Kathie Lee Gifford, Pattie Mallet, pop star Justin Bieber’s mom, admits that she was encouraged to have an abortion when she found out she was pregnant with Justin at age 17. She says: “I couldn’t -- I couldn’t abort.” If she hadn’t had these thoughts, where would the world be today? Sure, Justin has done some bad things in the past, but he has greatly impacted the whole globe. It’s a good thing that Pattie realized the effects abortion would have on her and her unborn son.

Thesis: If women had the necessary information and means to carry out full-term pregnancies, raise their children in safe comfortable environments, and have safe abortions, then the controversy over abortion would cease. The solutions to reducing abortion, or at least making it safer for women, are better leadership in Congress and commitment to women’s health, providing up-to-date sex education along with supporting pregnancy assistance programs.

On behalf of many studies it is approximately estimated that there are near 45 million abortions being taken in a year. Imagine that those abortions had not occurred with the current population issue in the world, there are over 7 billion people on the planet and we have limited resources which are depleting quickly. In a very awkward way we then notice and understand the real meaning in why abortion is beneficial to this world. There are many pro-life supporters that do not see the real reasons, benefits, and situations of this matter. Many of the pro-life supporters are ignorant to the reason behind why many women decide to take action in having an abortion. To all of us we should understand the real concept behind why abortion should remain legal; though it might seem immoral it can often be the best solution for the women that have to take that tough decision. Pro-choice protects and defends the people, it is ultimately the woman’s life that would be affected and no one else’s. We live in a country based on “freedoms”, so that means that women have and should continue having the freedom to that alternative. The big question is; “Who would the government be to take that away from us the people?” With all this being said, we all know that the best willing thing to do and accept is letting a woman have the decision to choose if whether she wants to have an abortion or not. She must have that option because we are all human beings and we have the right to make a decision of

When America was started the first settlers weren’t required to have documentation. So when did the fascination for documentation start? As people started seeing the new world as a place for a better life, more immigrants came to America. However to prevent overpopulation, the American government decided to stop and slow down immigration. On September 1727, America started to construct inspections on immigrants arriving to ensure that diseases weren’t going to be spread here. Though it wasn’t until the Plantation Act of 1740 where residents started getting naturalized. Nevertheless the first illegal aliens to appear were in 1808, after foreign slave trade became illegal. Since then the United States has naturalized many of their residents throughout the centuries after issues have been solved. Whereas blaming immigrants for current issues makes citizens think the solutions for these problems are simple, illegal immigration has no connection to many of the issues in the US particularly since the government needed a way to slow down immigration.
