With this new found freedom, women and men were able to ... child birth as well as the spread of diseases. This helped the 60s to become known as the sexual revolution. In those times it was the thing to do, and with the newly added birth control pill, there was hardly any worry of the spread of sexually transmitted diseases and babies. Whether its on TV shows, movies, or even music videos, sex has become commercialized in the 90s generation.

- ... see the urge to invite more immigrants, her position towards immigration is positive. At the same time she shares the same opinion that that due to liberal laws the flow of immigration gets out of control and agrees with Mills the officials need to implement tougher sanctions on immigrants. She suggests to admit more skillful and less unskillful immigrants, to limit Welfare benefits, to require from immigrants inviting their relatives "to accept full financial responsibility for up to five years", to improve border control, to deny citizenship to children born from illegal immigrants and other measures (334). Thus, Chavez offers the middle ground for both Mills and Kennedy, which can be formulated as following: We can not shut the borders, but we can improve border control and immigration policies to regulate the flow of immigration. We have to accept the fact that along with high-skilled and well-educated immigrants which can be an asset to the society, a certain ...
