The Death Of The United States

July 4th, 1776, the United States is born. After many years of hardship, the United States is now one of the most advanced countries in the world. It took many years for them to build the world power that the country is today. Following an expedition by Lewis and Clark, numerous compromises, slavery, many wars, including a civil war and two world wars, the stock market crashing, and much more, the United States is now a highly successful country. Like gravity though, everything that goes up must come down. Many other old-world powers such as Rome, the Chinese Dynasties, and the Abbasid Dynasty have fallen as well. Empires have fallen for a number of reasons such as disease, destroying the environment, a decline in morals and values, lack of

There has been a terrible accident, your head is crushed and you are fighting for your life, but “they” know you won’t make it. The doctor should also be fighting for your life, but he isn’t. You realize this is no accident. This is a partial birth abortion. You are not a patient of the clinic, you are simply a fetus. Abortion, in today’s society, has almost become second nature. Women all around the world are aborting children because they “aren’t ready”. Norma McCorvey, better known as Jane Roe, was the defendant in the 1973 United States Supreme Court Case Roe v. Wade. That landmark case established a woman’s right to have an abortion, but it created serious implications for right to life in America.

There are times in our life when each of us has fallen ill. Many of us immediately consult the doctors. Our faith appears to have disappeared. As diligently members of the church, we do not stop to consulting God for His medical assistance. We can all identify with the woman with the issue of blood and how she spent all she had before she meet up with Jesus and just by reaching out and touching just the hem of His garment. She was made whole. Hezekiah quickly turns to the wall and consults God for a miraculous healing immediately. God extended His life just like that. We must gather ourselves and remember where all of our help comes from and that is the Lord. As, the trials of life comes about, we are waiting on the Lord. The fact of the

Adrienne was twenty-seven years old when she went into labor on May 13, 1995. Flash back about nine months earlier. She thought she was having bad PMS. Her Italian mother swore that by grabbing her behind, she could tell that she was pregnant. Adrienne said that it was impossible but missed her next period; they were always right on schedule. After a trip to the drug store and a trip to the bathroom, she sat down with Danny, her husband, and watched the little white stick that would tell her for sure what her mother had told her already.

For staging hunger strikes, Paul and several other suffragists were forcibly fed in a tortuous manner. Prison officials relocated Paul to a sanitarium in hopes of getting her declared insane; during this time, while Paul was separated from the others, they had her evaluated to see if she was mentally ill. One of the psychologist, so eloquently, suggested that “insanity can be mistaken for courage.” Most of the doctors did not believe Paul to be insane, only depressed and hungry. When news of the prison conditions and hunger strikes became publicized, Americans began demanding the release of these women. This sympathy for the imprisoned women brought an enormous amount of support to the cause of women’s suffrage.

Every year, one million immigrants settle in the United States hoping for a new beginning, new opportunities, and a new life; however, they are welcomed by animosity, injustice, and discrimination. Even the president of the United States finds these immigrants to be troublesome despite their dedication to work hard to sustain themselves in their new home. Race related crimes continue to increase and the government is clearly making efforts to prevent more immigrants from seeking refuge in America as evidenced by the recent Muslim ban put into place by the Trump administration. Individuals fleeing from discrimination in their homelands are welcomed to a new form of discrimination here in the land of the free. Muslim

An ascribed status is the social status that a person is assigned at birth. Thus, the position is neither earned nor chosen. Rodriguez and Guzman argue that race in the U.S. is understood as an ascribed status because a person is assigned a race at birth -- you cannot choose or earn your race. Additionally, race in the United States is unchangeable. This is even true for when a person goes to different countries. For example, even though a person might be considered white in one country, if he or she is considered black in America, to America, they will always be black. Furthermore, Rodriguez and Guzman wrote that the way race is understood in America "disallows or ignores more contextual definitions" of race. The ascribed status race has in America means that what is believed to be in your blood when you are born is what you will be for the rest of your life.

It is fair to refer to the United States as the stray seed of Great Britain’s Earlier Empire, yet even with this relationship their executive leaderships and institutions are vastly different. Like an abused child, the United States vowed to, and successfully created a system of governing completely different from the monarch they were previously ruled under, giving birth to a presidential system that would become the leading example of political democracy.

The war had been going on for over a 3 years now, and it seemed as if it had only just begun. It also seemed like the U.S. was inevitably going to lose. Their wasn’t really much on their side other than a history record. China on the other hand had 4 times the army size, and an extra billion people that could be forced to fight if need be. The only hope the U.S. had was to think faster, fight harder, and have some really magnificent, ingenious idea.

"Ring around the rosy a pocket full of posies" begins playing the dancing death song round and round inside my head every time I look back at my life. When the news of the plague began hitting other towns around me that is when I became frightened that my city was being quickly destroyed. I started pleading my husband to not leave the house but he called me insane his words were "who else would bring the money to the table". He never was a good listener and it was when my husband passed away that I realized death is unavoidable. People began to question God whether he is with us or not. Chaos broke out in the towns, cities and finally the whole entire European country quickly started dying off. People began turning on the church and government for not having the medicine we need nor the love from God.

According to recent data, suicide is in on the top ten causes of death in the United States. As the staggering number of suicides increases to over 36,000 a year, and more than a 100 each day. (O’Neil 1) When looking at the data for military veterans, the numbers are even more alarming, as the increasing number, is caused for a national concern. In the past decade the demographics for veterans that committed suicide was predominantly was white male and in the age range of 18 years to 25 years old. Many of the reasons found for their suicide was mostly related to job satisfaction, money problems, or relationship issues. However, since the military has been engaged in war after September 11th, the demographics have changed. No longer is the demographic profile predominantly white, but now it involves several races, as well as age ranges that extend up to 44 years of age. The issues that have been found includes the stress of deployment, knowing when the time is up, the stress of leaving their families, the stress of possible dying, and other added stressors. As McCarl (2012) points out, “For these service members to survive the battlefield only to return home and commit suicide is a notion that reeks of depressing irony.” (McCarl 398) Suicides by Veterans have become a growing health concern, as many have come back from war, trying to adjust to civilian life. The purpose of this research paper is to analyze the growing rates of suicide by war veterans. Examining the causes,

This country has grown from thirteen colonies (states) to fifty within three hundred years. When you ask “What do you think of the United States?” Many people would say leadership, ambition, and fear. Leadership because we have demonstrated to the world that not only we can take care of ourselves but help more nations along the way; we have also made many inventions, the use of electricity, the car, the first movie, etc. Determination because even though at the beginning we were a small little union we defeated the power house at the time (Britain) not once but twice. Ambition because we as Americans always look forward to the future and we do things to make our lives better and not worse. Lastly fear because everybody knows that the one country they can 't mess with is the United States (just stating the truth). I might be speaking the truth with all this but United States has grown through rough times one of them being World War Two; being one of the most significant wars in history. The beginning of the war for us was pearl harbor, a horrible event that would forever mark this nation. From then on thousands of soldiers were sent to fight the Japanese and the Germans. Although the United States had soldiers to protect the American citizens during the war, there were still more people needed. I believe that the entertainment industries such as Disney, DC Comics and Marvel helped create propaganda during World War Two that benefited the United States because they felt it was

Kent State University, located in Ohio, faced a tragic event on May 4th, 1970. On this day members of the Ohio National Guard fired into a crowd of students ultimately killing four and severely wounding 9. (Lewis, Hensley) This massacre stunned the country. The various reactions to these students’ deaths came in a widely range throughout the country. Many citizens sparked a voice of belief against these actions and made a significant impact on the aftermath. Neil Young produced a highly acclaimed song, “Ohio”, about 10 days after the shooting. This song became an anthem for those Americans who were completely appalled by the actions involving the war in Vietnam (Songfacts). The legendary song, “Ohio” was an effective anthem to all Americans sparking a an impact to many protestors during a desperate and stressful time.

The Civil War of the United States, a war that stretched on for a period of four years, was among the worst events ever to occur in American history. The casualties marked by far, the bloodiest in America’s involvement in wars at six-hundred twenty-thousand military soldiers dead. To this day, it is known as one of the most memorable wars in our history. But is that why this war is so well remembered? The strikings of terror and death hold a heavy grip throughout the course of history worldwide, and in fact is one of the key elements that make drama, mystery, suspense, and horror so fascinating in literature. Indeed, there are many incidents in history that are well marked mostly for their count on how many were found dead. However, death
