#4 Political Contradiction

As reading the "Political Philosophy" I am learning that it is the study of politics, liberty, justice, property, rights, law, and enforcement of legal codes by law. I learn that the right and freedoms it protects and why, what form it should take and why, what law is and how it refers to a general view or specific ethic political belief or attitude.
  However, I seem to disagree with the "Political Philosophy" because I see laws broke all the time, I see people trying to protect there rights and freedom, which just gets taken away, I see people trying to get justice and they never receive it. The Political Philosophy is doing nothing to protect the honest working people but the people who are law breakers and always trying to get away with something, like murder, rape, stealing, hit and run.
  I work at a kroger and I see people everyday trying to get away with buying something they truky dont need. I see people who make a wall with the same kind of pop, for example Mountain Dew.. They make a wall with the cases of pop and then stick laundry detergent, fabric softner, cans of vegatbles, packages of meat. Whatever they van get there hands on and will be hidden by the pop. They then go to the checkout acting like the only have pop, handing them one case to ring up for the amount they have in there buggy. The cashier paying no attention does not see all the other goodies they have placed in there buggy and they leave the store only paying $50 dollars for pop when they should have paid $200 for the goodies stached in between the cases of pop. Even if these shoplifters are caught they go to jail for a few months and then are released to continue doing the same job until they are caught again. This is just one of the many things I have noticed  and seen. People breaking laws can get away with pretty much anything because they know the tricks in and out of the laws.
  I have even heard of someone raping and murding their neighbor, they are in jail for a few months released on good behavior and sent to see a psych. Meanwhile we have them doing it all over again and they never learned a thing from being in jail. Instead they should treat them like they did to the neighbor they decided to rape and murder. If your punichment was the same thing as the crime or law you broke it would happen less often.
  What I am trying to say is the laws are suppose to be there to protect you and serve you as a person, a state, and a country. However, people breaking the laws are getting away with it while the people trying to make it week to week are struggling and cant get help. Somepeople look at the laws are made to be broken, others look at laws as a way to protect, others look at rules as something to live by.

#2 Convinced

As your reading "They Say" you are agreeing with everything Rushkoff  Douglas is saying. You are agreeing with how you are scammed into thinking what others think, to buy more than you know you don't have the money for, and to look through the eyes of  how others see. The whole time your reading, you are agreeing with him noticing that the same situations happen to you on an everyday basis. Then coming to the end of the article you realized, he just scammed you the way you are scammed in every day life. I start to laugh and realize, that some how, some way this just isn't fair. But how is it fair for everyone to do it on a daily basis to people they don't even know? How can people draw your attention to an object and then convince you that, this is the product you have needed in your life from day one? Its so crazy to think how this is done every single day of your life and until someone like this author brings it to your attention, you are never really aware this is even happening. Without scamming and convincing of others however, we would not be into the products, the music, the clothing, and technology that runs our life. We would probably be a lot more wealthy, happier, out of debt and so fourth. We would be saving money because we wouldn't have to buy the best of the best, we wouldn't have to have the nicest of the nice and we wouldn't have to have the richest of the rich. So many reasons we are the way we are and they all go back to one word convinced.

#3 science: expanding our knowledge

   During the age of enlightenment we pulled away from our original beliefs through the church prolonging and expanding our knowledge of the world around us, with the help of applied science. We used to have faith in what we believed in and just knew it was correct. We went from having faith to wanting results, to answers, to proof on everything we came about. There was no just believing or having faith anymore. It was all accounted for and dealt with through science. This very technique we use today, as well with the help of science, they done in the 18h century. We are able to gain new and exciting knowledge about the world, universe, what's in it and beyond around us. With this knowledge gained, we as future graduates are able to work for and accept our degrees, to help us in our future employments. Before hand it used to be a privilege to go to college and get a degree. our parents and our parent's parents were fought if you went to school, done well, got a college degree you would then get a job. children now in the 21st century do not believe that. They don't see that they need a college degree to get a job and that just because you have a college degree does not guarantee you to have a job. However they are right. Just because children in the 21st century have a college degree it does not guarantee them to have a job, which is truly sad. Going to college and having a degree and graduating is a privilege and a great success, however instead of being rewarded with the job of your dreams, you are made to settle for who will take you and accept you at your time of graduation.  Everyone is to busy looking ahead instead of focusing on whats is in front of them.It all relates to without the help of science we wouldn't be where we are today.

#1 All Stories Are Not True

So far I am agreeing with the Michael Ryan about everything I have read so far. From the criticism to the way of the human life to how norms can be universal. Then I come along how all stories are not true. How everyone has their own opinion and how the world came into existence, how it became what it is. Some people think the world was discovered by the first Americans, others believe animals were here and humans came from them, some believe the dinosaurs are the founder and created humans, then others believe in God,the actual God and his son Jesus; from the christian faith. They believe that God done this magical work and created a beautiful remarkable world for us to live in. Everyone has their own story, but not all of them can be true. The old saying goes "only one story can true" and "there's only one person to believe" However depending on what you believe and your religious standing, also depends on what or who you'll believe. I agree with God being the maker of this remarkable place we live in today. God is the maker and Creator of this earth and the living people, things, and animals on it. I was raised in church and kept around church growing up. Aunts, uncles, and grandparents are pastors. That, which plays a huge role on what I believe and why I believe it. Its all in what you believe and what you were taught to believe. Everyone has their own story and not every story is correct, however every ones story is true to themselves.
