- 1471: Internet Security
- ... they do and where they go when on the "net." Security is a major issue with the Internet because the general public now has access to it. When only the government and higher education had access, there was no worry about credit card numbers and other types of important data being taken. There are many advantages the Internet brings to its users, but there are also many problems with the Internet security, especially when dealing with personal security, business security, and the government involvement to protect the users. The Internet is a new, barely regulated frontier, and there are many reasons to be concerned with security.

Communists, the former leaders of the Soviet Union, were one of the first political movements to wage war against the newly formed liberal government.

It is in this institution that the Communists have on numerous occasions attempted to gather support to impeach the liberal government.

- ... easy. Each is always arguing and accusing the other of wrong doings. All this hatred and differences started in the past, and this Quiet revolution, right after a new Liberal government led by Jean Lesage came in 1960. Thus was the beginning of the Quiet Revolution. Lesage had an excellent team of cabinet ministers which included Rene Levesque. The Liberals promised ... Canadian engineers from all over Canada returned to Quebec to work on the project. Slogans during these times were "we can do it" and "masters in our own homes". The government also started to replace programs the Church previously ran, which included hospital insurance, pension schemes and the beginning of Medi-Care. For these programs, the Quebec Liberals had to struggle ... own the schools of Quebec. Most of the teachers were Priests, Nuns and Brothers. They provided a good education but Quebec needed more in business and technology.

With the new freedom of expression, lots of books, plays and music about French ...

This breakthrough in technology lead to the greatest invention known ... are companies that allow you to buy their product over the internet which can be then sold violating the patent and there are many more scenarios that need protecting.

- 1475: Society's Restraint to Social Reform
- ... much debate and emotion. Along with the notions of self-sufficiency, employability enhancement, and work disincentives, it is the concept of workfare that causes the most tension between it's government and business supporters and it's anti-poverty and social justice critics. In actuality, workfare is a contraction of the concept of "working for welfare" which basically refers to the ... the freedom to make these decisions, then surely you must accept the consequences of those decisions. An individual must also work part of his time for others (by means of government taxing on earned income). Those in society who support potential welfare recipients do not give out of charity, but contrastingly are forced to do it when told by the Government. Each person in society contains ownership of their own body and labour. Therefore anything earned by this body and labour in our Free Market System is deserved entirely by ...
- 1476: Articles Of Confederation (wea
- ... of Confederation ended up resulting in the overthrow of the Articles and the writing of the Constitution. Originally, the Articles of Confederation had provided America with a loose form of government that gave more power to the states than anything else. While at first this seemed to be the most logical way to govern the new country -- seeing as how they were trying to avoid a central authority such as a powerful national government -- it ended up being a disastrous method of self-rule. Indisputeably, there were more weaknesses in the Articles of Confederation than there were strengths. This plan for a loose confederation of states gave the central government that the document itself established almost no power whatsoever; Congress could not authorize to raise money by way of taxation, control commerce, draft troops, enforce laws, coin money, or ...

Therefore, more money will stay in the people's hands due to indexing. The only party that seems to ...
- 1478: The War in Vietnam
- ... for the American people, the United States failed, for the first time in its history, to achieve its stated war aims. The goal was to preserve a separate, independent, noncommunist government in South Vietnam, but after April 1975, the communist Democratic Republic of Vietnam (DRV) ruled the entire nation. The initial reasons for U.S. involvement in Vietnam seemed logical and ... 1963 he had tripled American aid to South Vietnam and expanded the number of military advisers there from less than seven hundred to more than sixteen thousand.

It is unfair for the government to make the public try to believe that these medical researchers are the bad guys and the government is trying to protect the public from the evil. As much ...
- 1480: Nineteen Eighty-Four: A Grim Prediction of the Future
- ... from realizing itself. Althought the book starts out as the story of a neurotic, paranoid man, it quickly turns into a protest against a quasi-utopian society and a totalitarian government. The book appears to be a satire at the start, similar to books such as “Gulliver’s Travels”, or Huxley’s “Brave New World”, but all too quickly the reader will “discover, quite unpleasantly, that it is not a satire at all.” Nineteen Eighty-four is not simply a criticism of what Orwell saw happening in his national government with the coming of English Socialism, but a warning of the consequences of contemporary governmental practices, and what they where threatening to bring about. Perhaps the book seems so bleak ... or going to the bathroom. He also wouldn’t have passed by this magazine advertisement that could be seen in 1984: Is Big Brother watching? If you are tired of Government, tired of big business, tired of everyone telling you who you are and what you should be, then now is the time to speak out. Display your disgust and ...
