Its been more than 200 years since the first debate about make English the official language without success. There are many who believe that this multicultural country need a official language. In my opinion is not just for many who doesn't speak the language. Many argue that is a waste of money but that is what we all pay taxes for it no matter your native the language. There are many jobs created thank to the people who doesn't speak the common language. Moreover, for many services that you need in this country its a fee that need to be pay. For instance, if you need a driver license you need pay a $35.00 fee so what is the problem to do the paper work in another language that will help many people?; moreover, if the test is provided in a different language more people will going to take test. There is a reason why this country is one of the countries with high desire to live and is because the freedom in many aspect. There are many that are against a multilingual country but are those who are lack of education. I believe that English only movement attempts to justify racist and nativist bias under the cover of American patriotism.

California running out of drinkable water
http://www.latimes.com/opinion/op-ed/la-oe-famiglietti-southern-california-drought-20140709-story.html
There is not a surprise that with all the damage causing for humans during all this years the effects are obvious everywhere. Recently, we saw in the news what Californian are facing. The receiving deficiency of water supply has everyone worry. Authorities conscientiousness about the issue they have implement some ways how preserve the shrinking water resource. Many think that California has only one year of water left. This is shocking but at the same time is the result of our actions against to the planet. I wonder what 22 millions of people are going to do when they have to face months of water left. Unless we all contribute to stop with all this contamination, the shrinking drinkable water will decrease if not will rapidly increase.

http://highered.blogspot.com/2009/09/is-general-education-worth-it.html
I s general education in college worth it? Witch so much speculation, this topic has become a very intriguing argument. what people must understand is that a solid foundation on education is fundamental for your future regardless of your college mayor. Although some argue that general education in college is waste of time and money. Others in contrast believe that general education will be constructive for their forthcoming career. The purpose of general education is that you can learn skills that eventually you can put in practice not only in your workplace but also in your life. In my opinion general education requirements is beneficial lifelong investment on yourself.

Technology good or bad?

When we say modern technology, the first thing to come to my mind is upward mobility. Since we been working on new technology our advance its been notable. There its not doubt the many people do not agree that thank to the technology there are been many lives save it. There was a time when humans loose their lives just for a simple cold. But thanks to our advances we can be able an some cases to cure cancer, to practice extreme surgery such as a heart transplants or any other organs. Its a shame that many don't realize to all this advance. Another important thing is communication. Back in the days, its was hard to communicate with people that where living aboard. But now there its not a problem we can communicate to a long distance in matter of seconds. There are also many other way to communicate according to your preference such as video calls or a short message. I could be the whole day writing about all the benefits that we have thank to the modern technology. I believe that many people don't use it appropriate but that its their choice. Now, when you think about the negatives points that you might have about technology, think twice because there are most the positives that technology offers to the humans beings.
Our Future Generations
http://www.christianpost.com/news/harvard-professor-robert-putnam-on-rich-poor-opportunity-gap-kids-need-two-parents-churches-can-do-more-than-government-cp-interview-2-2-137089/
I choose this article because is really important to know everything that have to do with our future generations. We all know that our kids are going to be the future. It is very important to be aware as a parents what to do to make their lives successful. After I read the article I realize that are many factors that are not helping poor kids to achieve upward mobility. Its shocking to know that in a country like US instead to be increasing the opportunities for new generations are decreasing. I agree with the author of the book "Our Kids the American Dream in Crisis" in his opinion that education, and family structure plays an important role in our kids regardless economic status. Education is fundamental for any person who want to be successful. In his book Putman say that historically schools " somehow leveled the playing filed of opportunity. Also he mentioned that family structure have an impact in our children. Based on a recent study we can see that many poor kids only have either their father or mother. In the other hand rich kids have both in the most of the cases. In my opinion, I dont think this situations is going to change. Everyday its getting tough for the lower class income. Rich people are getting richer and poor people are getting poorest.
