- ... not a story of beauty, pride, or glory. In fact, it is not even a story of success. History may portray Jamestown as a Utopia for the oppressed English; however, I feel differently.

It is funny that historians would even use the word “settled” when discussing Jamestown because Jamestown was not settled ...

In this following essay I will try to show who was responsible for the assassination of John F. Kennedy.

- ... warming, pollution, and the increase of greenhouse gases just to name a few. The Greens solution to deal with these “externalities” is to declare capitalism the enemy and wage a war in order to either sustain or end growth altogether while moving back to a more Welfare-like state. Greens view the capitalistic model as one that tries to dominate and ... lobbying, generating large amounts of wealth, creating new social structures, forming political parties, and even making acts of terrorism in order to slow the capitalistic machine from growing ever larger.

It is because of the West’s recent success that we have been experiencing these problems and I feel that the same knowledge and labor that was used to create these economic successes can be used to find feasible solutions to our current global ecological problems. I ...
