Technology is Good.

I believe technology is a good thing.Technology I believe is the usage of computers, Internet, cellphones, radio, and television. I think technology is a good thing because it updates you with worldwide and national news fast, saves environment, and it makes jobs easier.
Technology updates you with worldwide and national news. It's important for you to know whats going on with the world,and in your town. You can watch news channels to find out from as little to if its going to storm, or to see if whats going on across the oceans.
Technology also saves the environment. It saves the environment by cutting back the usage of paper, so it saves the trees. You can find online things called online books, their like regular books but no paper needed. Just look at the computer screen.
Technology even makes jobs easier. It makes jobs easier by having storage on computers, organization, phones to communicate, and much more.
Technology are great things, we should be very glad that we have it. To keep us updated on news, to saving the planet. It also makes peoples jobs easier. Technology will always help this world doing new things every day.

Helmets Should be Worn at all Times.

As we all know, the law is you may ride your motorcycle without wearing a helmet. I think that law should be changed. Many people don't know but in the year of 1998 2,284 people were killed in motorcycle accidents, and 49,000 we're injured in just highway crashes in the United States. Since the law was passed around 2000-2005, the numbers have shot up. In 1998 500 people's lives were saved because of helmets, and 307 people's lives could have been saved.
In 1997, there was 2,116 fatalities for bike accidents. In 2004 there was 4,008. These are just accidents, it doesn't count the accidents that people were wearing and not wearing helmets. Helmets don't mean that they will save people's lives, but it does give you a more protection. Motorcycles are dangerous vehicles. They are hard to see when your driving a bigger vehicle, but wearing a helmet could save you. I do believe wearing a helmet could save you and others if you choose to wear one.

Health Insurance in USA!

Health care is social insurance for the ill and injured. What we all know is the the United States does not let everyone have health care. What I believe is that we should give it to everyone. The country of France has health care coverage for everyone who lives in that country. You must live in France for a certain amount of time before you become eligible for free health care, but you can stay in the hospital have surgery, eat, and sleep there FOR FREE. I know that sounds ridiculous because over here we pay so much money just to get a stitch. I know there are tons of people the in the US that do not have jobs, and people think that it would be unfair for them to get health care, but the way I see it is if a person without a job has cancer. Why would you throw them out on the street, and let them die? Why wouldn't you help them? I believe everyone should have the same rights. It is not fair to have some people with health care, and others that don't have it. Everyone should have equal rights.
Health insurance in France is free. I do believe that it should also be free over here in the United States. I think it is just rude to tell someone they can not help them because they do not have health insurance. There are sick people out in this country who need health insurance but may be to sick to work. To even get it. I believe this country is just to rude to care about its people. The only thing I think the United States cares about anymore is war, and the new technology coming out. No one is opening their eyes to the real problem. The people of the United States. The ones who make this country what it is today. We need health insurance for everyone. Just to be fair.
