Kathryn's Korner: April 2012
http://texasshmexas.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
Friday, April 27, 2012. The new budget took effect last September which included a 5.4 Billion school funding cut, billion. While I don't mind that kids are learning to keep their environment tidy, I think it's outrageous for Texans to allow a budget like this to go through when it effects so many people in a negative way, and the long term consequences of this action are almost scary to think about. Friday, April 13, 2012. In Christina Valdez's post titled “ Why Not Give it a Second Look? Themselves to ...

Local GOV: Plastic Waste
http://local-gov.blogspot.com/2012/03/plastic-waste.html
Friday, March 30, 2012. Some people say this ban is extreme, and they argue that they reuse the plastic bags for such things as trash bag liners or picking up pet waste at the park. I feel this argument does not make up for the 263 million plastic bags Austinites send to the landfill every year. Austinites, and hopefully all Americans in the near future, will come to realize what a difference this law will make for our environment. Embrace this change and enjoy cleaner streets. Give to Wendy Davis! What'...

http://texasshmexas.blogspot.com/2012_05_01_archive.html
Friday, May 11, 2012. In AJ's vlog about “sexting” becoming against the law he says that he “can't believe that our government is passing laws about common sense” and I agree that it must be really bad times when the government feels like they have to do this but I am not surprised that they are. And really why should anyone be? I'm not sure it's fair to put all the blame on the parents, kids are called kids for a reason. They sometimes act, lets say, really unintelligently and what do you expect? What's...

Kathryn's Korner: February 2012
http://texasshmexas.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html
Thursday, February 23, 2012. May the force be fair to you. Since the infamous case of Rodney King, police brutality has been a controversial thing to cover in the media. Who should be given the benefit of the doubt in that situation? The hopefully law abiding officer, or the victim/criminal, who no matter how innocent on the receiving end if they are brutalized will always be questionable in the eyes of the public. Did they in fact deserve what they got? Friday, February 10, 2012. So, what's next? Left O...

Kathryn's Korner: land of the free?
http://texasshmexas.blogspot.com/2012/03/land-of-free.html
Friday, March 30, 2012. Land of the free? Abortion has been present since the 5. Century. Aristotle thought that it was fine, up until the 40 day mark for boy and 90 day mark for girls when, he believed, they gained a soul and became a human being. And in the time of early American colonies, people were totally against abortion and it was a misdemeanor if you had one until the 19. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.

Local GOV: Doubling the Interest
http://local-gov.blogspot.com/2012/04/doubling-interest.html
Friday, April 27, 2012. There is a big debate concerning the interest rate doubling for college students starting July 1, 2012. The interest rate will go from 3.4 percent to 6.8 percent on subsidized Stafford loans unless Congress extends the temporary rate reduction. The reduction was put into place when George W. Bush was president in 2007, but it was approved by bipartisan. May 2, 2012 at 1:55 PM. In Danis post, Doubling the Interest, he makes a valid argument that could help solve student debt proble...
