Government.......

Do all the people in this world need to be under the power of a government? I say not because, I tend to disagree with some of the regulations that the government has set for the people of the society to day.

Like me there are many people out there that think in a civilized manner, and know how to behave. There are also free-thinkers out there in this world, the constitution says we are entitled to our own opinion however we can not follow through with our opinion, due to the laws. If a minor wants to get drunk or use illegal drugs and destroy his or her life then so be it. If a 14 year old can be put on trial as an adult for the murder of a 6 year old friend, then he can drink and smoke. The kids and other people drinking and doing drugs are only killing themselves they are not killing others. Not to mention our prisons now a days are too full, meaning they are filled with a bunch of pot heads. If they can get emptied out there would be plenty of room for all the murders, and child molesters. The city, state, and federal governments have imposed too many laws that they have filled all cells up. So the people that have done really bad crimes get to sit at home and think of who else to kill or molest, instead of rotting in a jail cell.

The U.S. government feels that it is necessary for our people to travel to other countries to help the poor and homeless, but they do nothing to help the poor and the needy of our country. Isn't there something wrong with that picture? I would at least try to get all the homeless people off the streets and out of trouble, before spending even more money to fly to other countries and send the people there, food. Especially when our poor people could be eating it and not starving to death. This all sound selfish, but it is true, there's a saying out there "put yourself before others." You are suppose to be well adjusted have good credit
