- 1951: The American and Japanese Social System
- ... security side, the United States and Japan are linked by a mutual security treaty. Despite all the attention in the press and negative attitudes toward Japan in Washington, particularly among government agencies that have to face the frustrations of Japans competitiveness, many American businessmen are doing very good business in Japan. The figures demonstrate this. Japan is Americas most important overseas ... Japan but also at the economic vitality of all East Asia. Its economic growth and stability is based on free market principles and participation in the international market. The US government is trying to institutionalize and strengthen is dialogue with the Japanese government and to enhance the dialogue between the two private sectors. There are many institutions involved in the governmental side of the dialogue, and just about every aspect of the ...
- 1952: The Persian Gulf War
- ... thought they were ingrates and were ungrateful for defending the Arab emirs from the Iranian Islamic fundamentalism. The Arab emirs were afraid that the Islamic fundamentalists would rise against the government and eventually take over the government as they had Iran against the Shah. Kuwait was also afraid of this and so they supported the Iraqi Arabs against the Iranian Persians. 2"Iraq",World Book (New York ... and Kuwaiti tankers were reflagged with U.S. flags. 1CNN The Gulf War (Video) (Atlanta, CNN News, 75 min., 1991) 4AP Press Toronto Star (January 20, 1991) A18 The Iraqi government had also accused the Kuwaitis of stealing 2.5 billion barrels of oil from its Rumaila oil fields by sliding drills into Iraqi oil pipelines.

- 1953: Internet Censorship
- ... access as any other thing found on the internet. There is no law against any of these things because of the right of information and the freedom of speech. The government can not do anything about this because all of these are called “information” and there is no argument, so these pages continue to exist. The government continues to make an effort to clean up the internet but with no success. They only hope this does not get worse. Some people make it a personal battle to clean up the internet. It does not seem like they are going to give up now. The American government is finding ways to cut down on pornographic cites but they cannnot ban porn straight out of the internet, after all it is a right. This is all legal ...
- 1954: Animal Farm By George Orwell
- ... bottom. At the top were the pigs. Each pig represented someone different in the revolution. Old Major is compared to Lenin. He was an ideologist who dreamed up a wonderful government where all the animals were equal and the humans, or the czars, were pushed out. Unfortunately his dream would never materialize. Then we are left with his predecessors. The first ... Stalin did the same thing against Trotsky and forced Trotsky into hiding into Mexico, where he was eventually assassinated. Both Stalin and Napoleon ruined any hopes of equal and fare government and instead set up dictatorships. Then comes the final important pig, Squealer. Squealer did not make the decisions in the government but acted more like the controlled media as in the Russian government. His job was to influence the people by exaggerating and re-writing history and sometimes telling plain ...
- 1955: 1984: Socialism, Fascism, or Communism
- ... Communism also calls for no private property while there is shared ownership of all money and business. Everyone works about the same amount, as in 1984, but a true communist government requires a revolution by the workers, the proletariats. In the book, the proles are the working classes, so that might foreshadow a revolution. Also, another trait that shows up in 1984 is no religion. The ultimate goal of Communism is that no government is needed. In a fascist state, there is a totalitarian dictatorship, where one person or group controls everything within. This can be seen in 1984 by the Party. There is ... the state and its leader, which there is not in the book. Ethnic cleansing is required in a large Fascist state. In 1984, I do think that the form of government takes some characteristics from Fascism and Socialism. Although, the entire deal with the proles seems as if there will be a revolution into a Communist government.

- 1957: Gun Control and Freedom
- ... hands of children. How many children have to needlessly die before America sees that we need stricter gun control laws? To leave the issue of gun control untouched by the government is to say that the citizens of America are essentially apathetic when it comes to violence in our country. Especially with the amount of juvenile violence that has been on ... soldiers. Restrictions on the amendment, however, would certainly serve as a good transition between the free reign of accessing guns and the removal of guns from society completely. While the government has made some improvement, firearm violence will be ever present. It is a part of American culture. If ever the problem is resolved, it must come through a changed collective ... change can only occur through mass education; one cannot legislate people's minds, only educate. Instead of passing gun control laws or instituting new waiting periods for gun sales, the government should concentrate on funding education for the youth about the effects of violence. The children of the United States are clearly the next generation of possible gun owners. Those ...
- 1958: Censor the Internet?
- ... to register, so that they can monitor their activities (Gates). In the United Kingdom, state secrets and personal attacks are off limits on the Internet.

Through all the ... religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to asse3mble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances" (Constitution). Therefore it would be unconstitutional for any sort of censorship to occur on the Internet. Even though it is illegal, restrictions on Internet access and content are increasing worldwide under all forms of government. In France, a country where the press generally has a large amount of freedom, the Internet has been in the spotlight. A banned book on the health History of ...
- 1959: Did the Expansion of the Aztec Empire Lead to Their Downfall?
- ... centralized bureaucracy looked after the collection and storage of taxes, matters of legislation and punishment. (Peterson, Frederick) Life for the Aztec's was good. Because of the complexity of their government all were happy. Then in 1519 Spanish conquistador, Hernan Cortes, met the Aztec leader Montezuma in Tenochtitlan. Montezuma believed that the Spaniards had come in peace, but he is proven ... two great conquests the Aztecs power grew rapidly and they continued to conquer all the surrounding tribes including the Otomis, Totonacs, Tarascans and Tlaxcalans. The defeated tribes retained their own government though they often had to accept Aztec garrisons and give lands to Aztec nobles. All the conquered tribes were required to provide sacrificial victims for the glory of Huizilopochtil, (see ... Cortes and his army as an army of gods so he backed down and surrendered without a fight. This upset the people so much that they lost faith in the government and anarchy was created. The Aztecs had no plan of attack because their supreme ruler, Montezuma, was imprisoned by the Spaniards. Overall I would have to say that because ...
- 1960: Gun Control
- ... no more than that it shall not be infringed by Congress. This is one of the amendments that has no other effect than to restrict the powers of the national government, leaving the people to look for their protection against any violation by their fellow-citizens of the rights it recognizes, to what is called, in The City of New York ... 1st Cir. 1942), cert. denied, 319 U.S. 770 (1943).

I feel that the founding fathers believed it necessary for private citizens to possess firearms not only to protect themselves, but also to prevent the government from tyrannizing them. It is a popular quote in the NRA that the second amendment holds up the first. I believe that this is true. In Germany in the ...
