Why would anybody in todays society want to go to college. It is probably one of the most overrated aspect of current society. Many people believe that in order to be successful you have to have a college degree, when in fact that is not true. Even if you were to graduate, seventy percent of college graduates will not find a job in their major, or field of study.
The average college student debt is one hundred thousand dollars. With a total like that, it will take ten years at a minimum to pay that off. That leaves no room for any extra money. So if you spend so much money to get a piece of paper. Then don't get a job in that field of study what's the point. Because now the money you spent to go to college you expected to pay back based on the pay you were expecting from your major. Only problem is that now you don't have a job in that field.
I may have it easier than most people. Due to me being in the army I have the ability to not go to college and yet still learn many valuable traits making me a marketable source for a job, should I choose to make a career out of the military.
So I will live my life not in any debt. All the money I earn I will get to use in the way I want to. Not the way society would have burdened me to use it. While you struggle to pay off all the college debt you accumulated just to get that piece of paper, I will be living my life the way I want to. Not being delayed ten years to pay off and unthinkable amount of money.
Maybe if society wants to force us to go to college then society should make it affordable.

Why Blame Men?
Women in today's society are having a serious self-esteem
issue that needs to be addressed. They are constantly blaming men for their
problems. Some women state that men are the reason they are so hard on
themselves. And other women take it upon themselves to harm their bodies, then
blame it on the men. This is a clear and obvious fact. A man did not pick up
the razor blade and cut your wrist. The man did not force his finger down your
throat for you to throw up. A man did not take away all your food and force you
to be anorexic. All these are personal choice weather you like to call it that
or not. You are the only one that is doing this to yourself. Stop blaming the
men because you are too naive, ignorant, and stubborn to admit that maybe the
problem doesn't rely within the men side but in the women side.
It’s as if i go home and punch a hole in my wall. Then when
my parents get home and ask how it happened, i blame my friend Jon who lives an
hour away. It just doesn't make any sense, that someone not there when the
action happened, can still be blamed for it.
Women claim that they don't need a man. That they don't need
a man’s money to live. Women claim that they are raising their girls to be self-dependent
and in no need of having a man and his money. Yet the minute a divorce happens.
Women have no problem taking child support and alimony from the men. Because
when all the dollar signs start to float around, that thought and hope of
raising your daughter to be self-independent goes out the window. Accepting
this money is against EVERYTHING you are trying to teach your daughter.
So we can officially conclude that women, specifically
feminists, are just ignorant, naive, people who are always looking for someone
else to blame for their personal problems.

War Is Necessary
There are many people around the world who refuse to believe that war needs or must happen. But the evidence of supporting war heavily out ways that of the evidence against war.
In the 1940's the United States was in a depression bigger and greater then any country had seen in a long time. With no hope of getting out we turned to joining World War Two. This turned out to be the reason America came out of the Great Depression at all. Many American companies willingly changed from creating general merchandise to objects of death and destruction. It is as it sounds. That Barbie doll factory began making bullets. That Lego factory began making tanks and missiles. Everyone was in on the war effort.
The increase in the necessity of faster production of war materials soon lead to the need for workers. Giving the American people a job and a wage to live off of. Also the increase in military enlistment shot up. And as there was money flowing into a Peace Time draft, the wages of the soldiers began to rise. Making even more money for the American citizens who fought in the war.
War brought this country closer together. Families willingly accepted ration cards so that materials did not run out for the soldiers. What better way to show support for those fighting for the country, then to sacrifice a want in your life. This may have been one of the greatest shows of togetherness and support of one another from the American people than ever seen before.
Without war and the ability to stop evil, there would always be innocent people dying by thousands. Had America not joined the war effort in 1941, then there is no telling if there would be a Jewish population today. There is no other way to stop those wishing to do harm to others, then war.
War is the reason this country came together. War is what makes the United States stand out. It defines who we are and what we are about, War is necessary to protect the lives of the ones we love. And the future lives of those to come. To simply put it, war is necessary.

Why To Join The Army
It is probably one of the biggest
decisions that a teenage guy needs to make. It is a decision I have made and I am
proud of. And that is to serve in the military.
It has been
statistically proven that less than 1% of the United States population will volunteer
to fight in the military. That’s crazy pending on the fact we already have one
of the world’s biggest and most advanced military. Think if that 1% rose up to
just 5%. Our military would be huge. I mean what is there to be afraid of for joining
the military. No it is not going to be easy, and they will look for every
possible way to kick you out. But you are being trained by people who have
lived and fought and have long been a part of the most prestigious military the
world has ever had.
It states
that to be a United States citizen you must be able to fight for your homeland.
It is our conscious duty as men of America to fight and protect the ones we
love. Women are looked upon in a different light when talking about joining the
military. They do not have to sign up for the draft or anything near it. But
that is for obvious reasons. My hats off and I respect every women who
willingly has joined the military. And I would fight and give my life for her
just as easy as I would for any of the men.
The
military is one big family. It is a place where it doesn’t matter what color
you are. It doesn’t matter what sexuality you choose. It doesn’t matter where
you come from. Everyone is family in the military. From the newest recruits to
the oldest veterans. Anyone willing to lay down their life for their country is
accepted. Because it boils down to this. When you are in enemy territory on an
unknown continent. You are not just fighting for freedom and America. You are
fighting for the person in the trenches next to you. You are fighting to
survive and make it home alive.
Death may
come. It is a natural thing. People die every single day. I signed up to fight
fully understanding that something greater could be asked of me such as laying
down my life for someone beside me. I do not want to die in a nursing home in
some bed. If it is my time then so be it in battle for me to lose my life. But let
it be known that I went down fighting. Not having someone spoon feed me while I
sit in a bed too old to walk. We owe it to those who have fought and died
before us. They were in our positions at one point in time. Now it’s our turn
for our generation to step up to the plate. In honor of my family. In honor of
this country. In honor of those who have gone and fought before me. That is why
I joined.
