Entry #8 Blood being thicker than water

Have you ever heard that blood is thicker than water? It is a saying that means that family is more important than anything else. But it does not have to be real blood family. I myself have many people that act more like my family than my real ones do. So does this saying mean that it has to be your blood family or can it be anyone that you consider your family? I think that it all boils down to who is there for you, who you turn to for support or who you turn to when you have a question because at the end of the day if they are the ones there for you through the thick and thin then they can be considered part of your family. It's hard because we cannot pick our family, how they treat us or how the act. All we can do is control our feeling to it and make the big decision of who is really important to us and who is always there for us.

Entry #7 # What are hash tags? #

What are hashtags? 

Hashtags are used to direct you to a group of some kind of like a movement. Have you ever heard of the #Metoo movement? Its were a bunch of people that suffered going through a traumatic event will say #metoo if they have been through it as well. It gives an agreed answer and makes you know that you are not alone. Yes, I have used hashtags mostly the #love hashtag or the #freedom #me. There are so many more hashtags out there all over the web right now. I believe they are mostly on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter. The cultural significance that hashtags have is that it makes you feel like you are not alone you can even look up #love in a search bar and find everything that has been posted with that hashtag. Wow, so you can see something that someone loves and see what types of things people love. By just searching #love which opened a gateway into what people love, you get to know others. 

Extra Credit Entry

In Michael Moore’s film, he went on to talk a lot about capitalism and how it affected the people of America. He shows us that in the beginning people just wanted the nicest things in life it was all about who had more money who could do more. What kind of different things you can make money from. Then, came the stock market crash and everyone got to feel what it was like to be on the other side of not having so much money all the time. The thoughts that I have about this video is that capitalism is wrong. People should except people the way that they are just because someone has more money, does not mean that they are a better person than the person that doesn't have the most money. When peoples loved ones pass away they should get the money, not these companies that have not been there throughout all of there life. The purpose of this film is to talk about the huge capitalism problem. It affects many people throughout there life. It is something that should be ended.

Entry #6 Animal Abuse is a Growing issue

Why? would anyone abuse a poor innocent little animals you ask? Because alot of people are messed up and cruel. Animal abuse is a growing issue in Arizona. Did you know that 70% of animals abused are dogs, 20.9% are cats and 24.1% are other animals. This is not okay people why would you harm something that cant even defend itself. It is a sick and cruel world that we live in and it is up to us to help those poor little babies get help and get out of the abusive homes that they are in. Those animals cant talk they really rely on us to save them, help them, feed them and love them but yet there are people that become viloent to these beaautiful loving and loyal creatures that god created for us to love. People say that dogs are a mans best friend but yet 70% of animals that are abused are dogs people train dogs to fight just for there entertainment. This is so sick people why would you want to watch that. I cannot stress this issue enough and people act like it is not even happening if you know someone is hurting there animal it should not be taken lightly. You should report it so that that animal can go to a loving home and get the help it needs dont be scared do the right thing. Think about it animlas try to protect us if we are getting abused by someone so why not do the right thing and save a poor babies life today do not stand by and let this happen. (881)501-0123

Entry #5 AZ needing more college grads

More college grads?
I think that the governor of Arizona in this article https://www.azcentral.com/story/opinion/op-ed/2016/09/17/arizona-needs-more-college-grads-ducey/90363958/ hits a great point that many people in Arizona are unemployed and relying on food stamps and other beneficial practices to help get them by. The homeless rate in Arizona is crazy and some of these homeless people do not seem to mind where they are. That is a huge issue! Like the governor states, we would all be doing so much better if we were college grads we would make more money and be happier and it would help our never-ending growing rate of homeless people asking for money everytime you get out of your car. We are being harassed by homeless people when they could be making money. It is not that hard to find a job in Arizona. Think about it we would all have better skills and be able to do our jobs better than someone maybe with just a high school diploma and people is more likely to hire someone with a degree or college experience rather than just a high school diploma.
Yes, it can cost a lot to pay for college but not enough people apply for grants and try to get help with paying for there college and if you think about it you are making a lot more money with something that you need a college degree for. So think about your future how much money you want to make and what you are really up for in life.

Entry #4 Foster Care in America

Foster care
Children in foster care is a growing issue throughout america many children are looking for homes and someone to love and care for them unconditionally, but yet we have all these people not wanting to adopt. According to "ABC News" About 40,000 infants are placed in foster care every year. Each one of those kids are fighting to live throughout the system. while most of the children left in foster care or dcs are teenagers that end up staying with dcs until the day of there 18th birthday. On average, children stay in the system for almost three years before being able to reconnect with there parents if they can get that chance. There are so many people today trying to work out infertility issues when there are people in america having children that cant even raise them this is a growing issue that should be addressed. I know that many children in the foster care system just want a loving a caring home that could be given to them. I have seen a case where some foster parents just become foster parents to be able to get the check from dcs each month and it turns out they were bad placements to begin with. we can all held this growing issue by good people helping to raise the children in foster care by getting them out of the system and going through trainings, to make a huge imact in others lifes.

Entry #3 Media slant Sarah Huckabee Sanders

https://youtu.be/xlyAWYJ6VcU

In this media report with Sarah Hukabee Sanders she has shares slanted report of  the president trying to say that America is not focused on the good things that Trump is doing her option in biased. She also goes on to talk about statistics and how to "America is winning." They talk about president trumps tweets and Sarah states that she "thinks" he also tweets about healthcare, and immigration bills as well. This report makes me think that it was one sided and staged what about the other people that have opitions on what the president is doing does there option not matter? The meaning behind this report is that she is trying to excuse what Trump did, by saying look what he is doing also. It is saying that he is doing other thing totally shying away from everything else only talking about the good and stating that America is winning when we have all these problems going on. This might impact the audience with there option since it is such a big issue with the media being more bias today.
