 * The 3 Issues that are most intersting and important to me, along with my position on them:**


 * Issue Number 1-** High Government Taxes Hurt the Economy

Position: The problem with this issue would be that it hurts the economy badly. Some solutions for this issue could be to go to the governement and state reasons why this issue could hurt the United States Economy badly like wasting money to the government when we could be sending it on something worth it.


 * Issue Number 2-** Wealthy Should Be Taxed Higher

Position: I think the problem with this issue would have to be that the rich people might start a protest and get a lot of peoiple hurt. i think a solution to help this issue would have to be that we have the wealthy pay the same as the not so wealthy.


 * Issue Number 3- Death Penelty**

Position: i think the problem with this issue would have to be if the persons family hears about it then they can go crazy and hurt the Governement badly. the solution for this would to be tell the family and have them come down to the place and say their goodbyes to the person and make it very reasonable to the family why their kids are being punished.
