The Bundy Family

Government was created, and has always been, to enforce law and order. “Governments almost certainly originated with the need to protect people from conflicts and to provide law and order” (Purposes, 2016, par. 2). Without government, the people would fall into disorder and chaos, causing unhappiness and hardship throughout the nation they live in; it would be anarchy. Constitutional governments not only protect citizens from foreign threats, but also domestic threats from within. In America, a citizen’s freedoms extend as far as they want until they infringe upon the rights of another citizen. Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness are only some of the many rights promised to the American people. These rights are set forth by a well-

The government’s role for the people is to challenge them like how contestants from “The Amazing Race” or “Fear Factor” are challenged. Government should be like a reality competition show filled with adventure and danger (Amazing Race, 2003) (Fear Factor, 2005). Just like the government in “The Hunger Games” (Collins, 2008). People should compete for rights and liberties. The competitions can be held under the government’s supervision. These competitions can involve multiple life daring tasks and only the ones that survive win. The losers or the ones not so fortunate die in the process, a true fight to the death. Government works from a federal standpoint and does not get involved in local affairs.

What is the government’s purpose? As defined by Bastiat, a French economist and author, it is “the organization of the natural right of lawful defense… for the purpose… of doing what they have a right to do, to secure persons, liberties, and properties, and to maintain each in its right, so as to cause justice to reign over all” (The Law 3). Therefore, if the government is doing something other than acting to protect the lives, liberties, or property of its citizens, it is stepping out of its bounds. In regards to the federal government, it has done this to an extreme. Before discussing the problems with the federal government’s megalomania, it is vital to understand the

When observing the government of this nation, there is one undeniable truth: the government’s primary purpose is for the safety and maintenance of its people. According to Morris I. Leibman in his article “Civil Disobedience: A Threat to Our Law Society”, the demand for equality cannot be converted into a fight for superiority. We must all learn to be equal under the law, and in order for this equality to reach its acme, we must learn to accept the policies that our government sets before us. In fact, as stated by

In a normal government we expect the government to look out for the people that they are governing, but in this case they didn't watch out for their people at all. For example. In 1786, Shays' Rebellion occurred in western Massachusetts as a protest to rising debt and economic chaos. However, the national government was unable to gather a combined military force amongst the states to help put down the rebellion (kelly). During this event when the chaos broke out many people that were not part of the protest got hurt and the government couldn't control that.

During the fire, it destroyed over $200 million in destruction. The fire left 100,000 people homeless and more than 17,000 structures were destroyed in the fire. As well as 300 people killed in the fire. It took a lot for everyone to realize what happened and to know

It states clearly in the Declaration of Independence that the government is designed to protect the rights that everyone receives. These are known as unalienable rights meaning that the rights can't be taken away from them. These rights should never be violated and if they are, the rights of the citizens come into play. The declaration of independence states, “That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed,— That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish

Theodore Robert Bundy was an infamous serial killer who confessed to brutally murdering over 30 women. He was born on November 24th, 1946 in Burlington, Vermont. Ted’s mother, Eleanor Louise Cowell gave birth to him in the Elizabeth Lund Home For Unwed Mothers. The identity of Ted’s father is still unknown, but his birth certificate names a Lloyd Marshall. Eleanor also claimed that a veteran by the name of Jack Worthington could also be his father. Ted’s mother brought him to her parents, his grandparents, where they helped raise him. They lived in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania for about 4 years. He then took his grandparents’ last name, Cowell, and was convinced while growing up that his mother was his sister and that his grandparents

In 2001, Steve and Dwight Hammond started a fire which they argued was to kill an invasive species, as is usual in dealing with these problems. They also say they called the emergency dispatcher before starting the fire, which was the right thing to do. The government says that they started the fire to cover up an illegal deer slaughter and called the dispatcher about 2 hours after starting the fire.

The government has different functions, however they all comprise of one goal: which is protecting the citizens that it encompasses. The Department of Agriculture protects American citizens by creating a certain criteria for large agribusiness companies to comply with. If they do not follow the safety and health criteria then the product is not allowed to be sold in the United States. Therefore, the USDA protects people from the corruption and callous agribusiness companies that only want profit, as well as exhibits the ineffectiveness of the USDA for preventing the corruption inside the agency by agribusiness extortion.

The Bailey family has gone back many generations starting with my Great-Great Grandmother Georgia Amanda Pierce. I asked my Grandmother Deb Bailey a series of questions about our heritage. The Bailey and Pierce families both originated from Europe. The Bailey family came to America for better jobs and a new start at life.

Historically, the notion that government authority should be used to engineer a more perfect society—beyond merely the establishment of equal legal rights—has resulted in horrific events: it’s the basic idea at the heart of eugenics, the Great Leap Forward, and Pol Pot’s agrarianism. To be clear, I am not conflating the modern American left with these programs (liberals clearly have positive intentions); on a personal level, I simply find the intellectual foundation of many social justice movements—that we need the government to eliminate bigoted ideas and fix social imperfections—deeply unsettling. In terms of stability, the law binds our society together and establishes a framework in which all citizens are treated equally—where the poor can challenge the affluent, where the powerless can challenge the powerful. Support for the rule of law extends to the highest law of our land: the constitution. Illegal immigration is a violation of the law, and falling into a cycle of repeated amnesty undermines American institutions; measures that make it more difficult for citizens to exercise their second amendment rights are generally misguided; and based on the principle of federalism, a vast array of social issues do not fall within the jurisdiction of our national government—education, drugs, marriage, and so

We live in this country for the land, and the for the free as Americans we rely on many attributes in this world in order for us to live our lives. Our government has supplied us with many great things for us to be proud of. Our government is “the institutions and processes though which public policies are made for society.” (Edwards, Wattenberg, and Lineberry, p. 7). With all these institutions which includes the President, Congress, the courts and all the federal administrative agencies. These are the institutions that make up public policies for us, and to shape the way we live as Americans. The way this system has been operating through all the years has been

The role of government has developed throughout the years changing the way we view and act in society today. For example, the national government ensure that the citizens of the United States are all treated equally, applies law and order, and provides opportunities. The government has changed dramatically since we now have social media, newspapers, and the radio. However , not only has the government provided a strong impact in society in a positive way, but it has also impacted the society in negative ways. As a nation the public has found many imperfection in our government that they want to change. Public opinion has caused negative feedback through media and political participation . The government is trying to help the people by
