2. I vote because if I don’t vote for what I believe in then who
will? I also vote because I feel like if you don’t vote then you
have no right to say anything when something goes wrong.
I feel like the education system needs to change. There needs
to be no more state wide tests. Teachers are teaching the
things they have to teach that will be on the tests on not the
basics. They are forced to speed through the material in order
to get everything taught that will be on the test rather than
getting to take time on the harder material.
I feel the gun laws needs to stay where they are now. I do
believe that guns don’t kill people but people kill people.
Therefore, you should have to take a test in order to get your
concealed carry license so that guns don’t end up in the
wrong hands.
MOTIVATION!
3. I honestly did not know much about Congress before
this class and now I feel like I do. The main thing
about Congress that I didn’t realize was all the smaller
things they are in charge of. For example, Congress is
in charge of establishing Post Offices and Post roads.
It’s just the little things that I didn’t ever realize.

4. I feel the need that the United States needs to
get the national debt under control. I feel like it
is just adding up and the future generations are
the ones that will have to deal with all the debt
that has just kept adding up.
FUTURE GENERATIONS!
5. 1ST AMENDMENT!
I feel like the first amendment
is one of the most important
because there are many things
held in that one amendment.
In the first amendment you
receive freedom of speech,
religion, press, assembly and
the right to petition. If it wasn’t
for this amendment we would
not be where we are today.
6. During this course, I have discovered the importance
of my individual vote. This will help me throughout life
because I know that opinion really does matter. Before
this class, I have always felt that it did not matter if I
would ever vote or not because my individual person
could not change anything compared to the millions of
voters. Though my vote may not change whether or not
my candidate becomes president, it still does matter.
That is my job as an American.
