The question is basically composed from a Case study about Monsanto the company that genetically modifies seeds. You need to get information from the case itself. The question is in regards to are we playing God when it comes to genetically modifying not just seeds anything in particular. For example, I need to write about would it be the right thing to genetically modify a child before birth so that he or she comes out to be a perfect baby? Also, if there was a way to cure cancer by genetically modifying genes would it mean we are playing the role of God? Are we going to charge for the cure of cancer? Overall, are we playing the role of God by doing this. You need to use references from the case study about Monsanto. What do we believe as values and how that plays into a final decision on whether or not it is the right thing to do.

Half of the Country
This fictitious speech was made to a group of blue-blood, wealthy corporate owners in the Hamptons.

My fellow countrymen who run the country:

it is has recently come to light that I made a comment a few months ago. The comment concerned me stating that half of the country needs to find a way to support themselves and the government cannot support them. Well, I stand by that comment. How can half of the country, who pay no federal income taxes, expect the other half to support them through their tax dollars? Further, who creates the jobs for the half of country that works hard and pays taxes? We do!

The non-paying half are Slackers. Yes, that is what I will call them in the confidence of this company I keep here! The Slackers are lazy! Nothing is ever enough for them. I guess they were somewhat happy about getting a free cell phone. The cell phone wasnt enough. Before you know it, the Slackers will demand a new iPhone5. Forget having to work for it-they should just simply get it. Well, I say to them, I wouldnt give you a free iPhone 5 if they were growing on trees in one of my many vineyards!

Our system currently allows for massive government support Slackers; however, would those paying taxes agree with this? Is it right for half of the country to support the Slackers? Is my logic flawed here or am I taking crazy pills?

A Slacker getting free support is like allowing your adult children to move back home and then not requiring them to get a job. There is no incentive for the adult child to do anything other than play Battlefield 3 all day long because they are eating and have a roof over their head.

However, I do understand the need for continuing federal dollars, supporting state programs, which provide WIC and other assistance to single parents. Being a single parent is not easy, especially when the majority of single mothers are not receiving adequate child support from the father. Those that benefit from these programs are only using it as a temporary means to get back on their feet through employment or educationand the true benefit is going to the children. How can we punish children? We will only be as strong as our means to temporarily assist single parents in raising children that are the future of our country.

My opponent is stupid and his policies have only given handouts to Slackers.

In summary, I implore all of you to vote for me. I already have massive public support to cut entitlement programs, repeal the previous administrations tax credits, lower the tax base for the upper class, and create a flat 30 percent tax for the middle class. You are joining an Army of budget reform!

Write an essay that related to this essay:

This climate change program was found by the citizens such as students to cut down the carbon emissions of the world and also to empower citizens. This operation called I-732 was not created by the politicians or special interest groups. Climate change program exists as there are many disasters and diseases come up which caused by toxic gases such as carbon dioxide. They also show the chart of human lives that in between 2030 to 2050, there will be 250,000 deaths from malaria disease. Moreover, Florida has the highest housing stock underwater which is 12.56%. As the cause of global warming, now governments are looking at the natural disasters that were happening just like the Washington wildfires range and also Louisiana flood. China and India they both now place themselves as the most dangerous climate change due to the rising of sea levels. In 2018 they predict that $25/ ton will be a charge if the program is running which is I-732 and will still grow over time. The cost of the family will also cost approximately around $200 per year. They want to run this program as for where we should pay is to reduce the B&O tax on manufacturing. Research that had been done by MIT was that they said the price on carbon is essential. They also provide the carbon tax swap calculator on their website to predict the cost of the families that should pay. However, they plan to run this program this year in 2016 November due to presidential turnout. Moreover, also the scientific urgency and also it is time for them to play offense against the climate change that is getting worse over time which is caused by carbon gasses and etc. Their policies are to cut down pollution, lowers the sale tax for 1% which is sounds fair, Funds working families tax rebate granting 400,000 low-income families up to $1,500 annually and also to keep good jobs or products in Washington so we do not need to live in a place full of diseases or even floods in the future.
