Article Introduction

     "Scott Walker proposes deep cuts to schools". Comments flood through cbsnews.com about postings like these that are affecting people everywhere across the U.S. Cbsnews.com is one to many of the most visited websites for U.S, world and political news. Articles like these are very important, not only is it affecting one place in the United States but it is and could also affect other places. As the article reads "[it has] stirred a national debate over public-sector unions and drawn tens of thousands of protesters to the Capitol for three weeks." Now if that isn't enough to get you worried about the future of our children, the future of us teens, then I don't know what will.

      This article is so important for many reasons. It involves the future of the children of the united states, the teachers that are teaching your kids, teens and even spouses that are going to school. If you read the article, the writer states "Even though Walker isn't ordering immediate layoffs, his budget will put tremendous pressure on schools and local governments, which will be asked to shoulder huge cuts without raising property taxes to make up the difference." Not only are we already pressured by the actual school work but now we are having budgets cut for students, and future students. How could this not affect you as you read it? Not just us, but the GOVERNMENT is being affected as well. Also a 500 million dollar cut to Medicaid. I don't know what sort of situation you are in but I on the other need Medicaid, not because I am lazy and don't have a job but unfortunately life has hit big time in my situation and I soon will be off Medicaid but what about the thousands out there that need it!! That are dying, sick babies, sick mothers who cant care for their babies, sick homeless people. Its disgusting, so far the government disgust me. NO! The republicans disgust me, its about LOVE people, not about who can get more money in their pockets, but apparently thats all they care about!


On the bright side lets see what else my classmates talked about:
