What Is The Federal Government's Single Greatest Responsibility To The Public?
.... is aid to the smaller governments, such as state or city offices.
I feel that this is most important in crime-ridden, overpopulated cities,
such as New York or Los Angeles. These are the great tourist attractions in
America, but they don't receive the recognition that they deserve from the
government. Without government funds, these cities don't have enough money
for upkeeping and allow their images to become tarnished. This will cause a
domino effect because less tourists will want to visit America. Les .....

Voting
.... So basically my family has
concerns with money and where it goes. Which may affect who they vote for.
However there was a consensus on what affects there voting habits, and
that agent is war. My family felt that war wasn't good, and to end the war they
would do anything. Even if that meant voting out who they voted in. Also if a

That is because my family wants the best military in the world.

Whats Wrong With Communism

holds many rights true to him. Freedom of speech, religion, and the right to
bear arms are just a few.
Your country, on the other hand, is greatly hindered by your malignant
ruling. A citizen owns virtually nothing he can call his own. Jobs are

Americans think of as “a given” are neglected in your area. I know I cannot
change the way you govern your country, but I hope I have been able to change
