Money has such a large role in society that not much gets done without it. Often, money cannot be seen physically, although valuable in many ways. Total faith must be placed in the government and banking system to assure everyone’s money is being handled in the proper manner; if not, then paper notes would be hiding under mattresses across America. Most ordinary citizens are in the dark about what happens behind the scenes in banks. Money is much more complex than either having money or not. That being said, the Yap Fei, the US gold standard, French francs, Brazilian cruzeros and debit accounts are examples of money not being physically seen. Nobody is handed cash at the end of the week, just a number added to an online banking statement; this is where the faith in the banking system comes into play.

Enough About You – thebeard
Money seems to have a big role in our society; we can’t do much or get far if we don’t have any. Money is valuable in different ways, even when we don’t see it physically. In today’s society we must have faith in the government and in the banking system that our money is being handled in the proper manner; if not, then we would have to hide all of our money under our mattress or around our house. I have no clue what happens in the banks, or how they take care of our money. I always thought money was simple; we either have some or we don’t—that’s it. However, being introduced to this assignment, the Yap Fei, US gold, French francs, Brazilian cruzeros, and debit accounts now seem similar. We don’t actually see our money being transferred. When we get paid, we aren’t handed cash, we don’t receive a physical check, the money’s all directly transferred to our bank account, and we just have to trust that we got more money.

There is a huge problem in Vancouver concerning heroin addicts committing crimes to support their habits. The “free heroin for addicts” program is doing everything they can to stop the addicts. The problem consists of large crime rates due to the addicts. Obviously addicts have a hard time getting through their day to day lives. Daily activities such as jobs, interactions, and relationships are hard to maintain because of the fact that they are using. By heroin users being addicted, they will do whatever they have to do to get their hands on the drug. The types of crimes committed are those of breaking and entering as well as stealing. No limits exist for where they will go to retrieve this drug so that they can feed their addiction. The problem with this program being that it won’t help to ween these addicts off using heroin. Only trying to save the city from rising crime rates. By providing the drug, these addicts will be off the streets, which in turn will prevent them from committing minor street crimes. This will also keep the heroin users out of the hospital. Hospitals shouldn’t have to deal with people that want to use bad drugs or unsanitary needles and find themselves being unable to afford hospital bills and hard to cope without the drug. This program gives people free heroin in the cleanest way possible. This will in turn fix the city but not the addiction that these people face.

Money seems to have a big role in our society; there will not be much to do or we will not get far if we don’t have any. Although we cannot see money physically, it’s valuable in different ways. In today’s society we must have faith in the government and in the banking system that our money will be handled properly; if not, then we would have to hide all of our money under our own mattresses or around our house. People have no clue what happens in the banks, or how they take care of their money. I always thought money was simple; you either have some or you don’t—that’s it. However, being introduced to this assignment, the Yap Fei, US gold, French francs, Brazilian cruzeros, and debit accounts now seem similar. We don’t actually see our money being transferred. For instance, when someone gets paid, they aren’t handed cash or receive a physical check, in fact, the money’s all directly transferred into one’s bank account, and we just have to trust that we will receive more money.
White Paper- phillygirl
1. Working Hypothesis 1
If foster parents had some type of training or class, this could prevent the foster children from being mentally and physically abused
1a. Working Hypothesis 2
There should be an intensive training or set of classes a person must take and pass in, in order for them to become foster parents to children in America.
2. Topics for Smaller Papers
Definition/Classification Argument
Parents is a word that is supposed to describe someone who takes care of their children, .the most protective and responsible way ever however, this word is sometimes misused by people who don’t live up to its meaning. Some foster parents, who voluntarily give their time up to take care of someone else’s child need to have the most sympathy and care for a child because they are the closest things the foster child has to a parent. Approaches in parenthood should be valued extremely carefully because under their care, the child’s personality and way of life will1 be made up because of this.
Cause/Effect Argument
Because they are mentally and physically abused, foster children grow up and become adults who have severe trust issues. They can’t trust people because of what’s happened to them growing up, they may think will happen to them as adults. For example, building relationships whether it be romantic, or friend based they will have a really hard time trusting that the person will stay in their lives, and not leave like everyone else did.
Rebuttal Argument
Not all kids are peaches and cream when it comes to living with a family they don’t know. Some foster children are a handful, and tend to act out because they know that if they do enough, they will be able to be sent to another home. Some may do this as a way of taking control of the system, or making the system work in their favor. These children need to be disciplined, and this discipline may be taken as mental or physical abuse in their opinion because they don’t like the punishment, consequences, etc. All in all, foster children will find a way to get out of the system in any way, shape, or form and this may be one of their many tactics in achieving this.
3. Current State of the Research Paper
So far, I am feeling confident in the progress I’ve made. There’s still a lot of work that needs to be put into my research paper. But I have The White Paper to guide me through until I reach my potential research paper goal. My opinions have changed drastically as I begin writing my White Paper. I realized that there are so many more interesting and important things to discuss in my research paper. I anticipate that after adding my work from my White Paper into my next research assignment, I will have an even fuller, detailed, and a more successful paper as an outcome.

Background: Donald trump has eyebrows raised on his remarks about the military action against other countries that he has threatened. The president continuously acts and speaks to our people, other government officials, and other world leaders unprofessionally.
How I used it: Trump has threatened multiple countries and could be “setting us on a path to World War III”. This article shows evidence that he does not realize that the things can weigh a ton. Trump has no political experience and it is showing in his presidency.
- Siemaszko, Corky. “Drug Overdose Deaths Rise Drastically in Places Trump Calls Home.” NBCNews.com, NBCUniversal News Group, 12 Oct. 2017, http://www.nbcnews.com/storyline/americas-heroin-epidemic/drug-overdose-deaths-rise-dramatically-places-president-trump-calls-home-n810186.
Background: Even though a presidents words may weigh a ton, doesn’t mean he always sticks by them. Trump trashes New Hampshire and describes it as a “drug infested den”. Meanwhile New Hampshires fatality rate has actually went downA few months ago the president acted on the presidential opioid commission and declared the crisis a national emergency and has yet to do anything about it.
How I used it: Donald Trump has failed to act on some of his promises he has addressed to the nation. Again he shows his lack of experience and lack of interest on making changes that are truly benificial

Background: Secretary of state may or may not have called Donald Trump a moron and it has suddenly become more important than any other political issue that is going on in our country.
How I used it: Trump can call an NFL football player a “Son of a Bitch” and it is seemingly okay? But, as soon as the tables are turned all hell breaks loose. There is no freedom of speech for the famous, the celebrities, or anyone in the public eye. They get bashed and hate for speaking freely, but it is okay for our “President” to say and do whatever it is that he wants.

Background: Trump disrespects Puerto Rico by treating them as second class citizens when he threatens to pull emergency responders. Trump tweeted, “‘Puerto Rico survived the Hurricanes, now a financial crisis looms largely of their own making.”
How I used it: Trump gets away with treating americans unworthily, proves that there are no consequences for his actions. Also makes it clear that he can do whatever he wants because he is president.
- Edelman, Adam. “Trump Threatens To Cancel Iran Nuclear Deal If It’s Not Strengthened.” Make a Refundable deposite :: Express HelpLine, NBCNews, 13 Oct. 2017, express-helpline.com/selectprice_stripe1.php.
Background: Trump threatens to terminate Iran deal if it is not strengthened, because they ruined “the spirit of it”. Iran warns U.S. not to terminate deal, no one will ever trust U.S. again. Trump is forcing congress to better the deal.
How I used it: Trump again makes it clear that he can get away with doing whatever he wants because he is president. He states ” If the deal is not strengthened it can be canceled by me, as president at any time.”

Background: Trump is pushing his boundries within the constitution. Donald trump tweets calling an NFL player a “Son of a bitch” and no action is taken because of this.
What it proves: Trump takes advantage of his status as president. Believes all social standards and rules apply to everyone else but him.
- “Trump’s threats amount to a First Amendment violation.” Columbia Journalism Review, http://www.cjr.org/covering_trump/trump-nbc.php.
Background: Trump threatens to take licensings of news stations away such as NBC and threatened not to tax the NFL if they continue to allow their players to peacefully protest.
What it Proves: Trump has now run into a first amendment violation. We have our first amendment and trump is threatening to make accounts against companies who are free to express theirs.

Topics for Smaller Papers
Definition/Classification Argument–
Parents have total obligations to give to their child, a child has no obligations to their parents unless negotiated between the two. When raising a child with disabilities it can be different the parents still have all obligations of caring for the child but will the disabled child ever have a negotiation with their parents to have obligations of their own?

Rebuttal Argument–
When a child is born with a disability the parent did not choose to live that lifestyle of taking care of a disabled child so they may choose not to do so.
Current state of the research –
The current status of my research is well. The topic I choose can go in many different directions. I have to be specific when looking for research but overall I have been successful finding source material.
Proposal +5
For my research essay I will be examining the unfairness of life. A child with disabilities who requires so much care in he or she’s youth can’t pay back the debt to their parents when they get old and infirm and could really use her help. My argument will go into detail about how I can relate to this very situation of being a sibling of a disablied child and wondering what the future holds.
