In a communistic nation, the government controls many things. Natural gas and oil are controlled by the government. The government can control solar energy, coal, people and minerals. In a socialistic nation the only thing that can be controlled by the government is water and timber, witch are also controlled by the communistic government also. Socialist government can only control these because actual companies don't own the timber and water. The companies actually own the mineral rights, oil, natural gas, the coal as well as the wind farms.

20% December

My idea was good but a lot of things got in the way. I found out that having animals in the same room  as you in high school reduces stress and helps a lot of people. But on the down aside some people have allergies to them witch puts a dent in the idea.  I went a long ways I think with researching and comparing things.  I found out that a lot of people are working on getting animals in schools and a lot of schools are starting to start getting them more involved. A lot of the obstacles are insurance like if the animal bites a student or if someone had an allergic reaction then they would be in trouble.

Capitalistic- you pay for your own schooling, every school is private, no financial aid form the government you have to pay for it all your sled and you decide what you want to do.

Socialistic- mostly public schools but there are some private. The public schools are free to attend, you decide what kind of a career you want to have and you can get quite a bit if financial aid from the government

Communistic- all schools are public, the government decides what kind of career you would do best and you are forced to do that line of work

All of these kinds of government will get you ready to go into the work force

Runaway brig

The book runaway brig is about someone who goes out with his friends when he wasn't suppose to and they find a old ship and they start to explore it. Then someone steals their ship leaving them with a broke down ship. After they find a note that tells them where the hidden treasure is and soon the Yaht comes and rescues them. The high light of the book is when he leaves his little sister when he shouldn't have and he thought he would be back in time but he obviously wasn't that showed that you should listen to your mother and it will keep you out of  trouble. But I also liked that they stayed together through the whole thing.

Minimum wage

Minimum wage should be raised.  Raising the minimum wage would help people who arnt making enough make more. With it being raised it would help out with the unemployment also with that taxes would go down. Also for young or unskilled workers it would be a lot easier because they know what they are going to get and don't have to nogociate a starting wage. "Without a minimum wage, it can be difficult for small businesses to budget their money. With a minimum wage in place, a small business owner knows what he will be expected to pay per hour and he can create new jobs with his company based on this budgeting information." "Raising the minimum wage will raise the wages of all bottom tier workers providing them with more purchasing power, increasing the demand for goods and services and ultimately leading to more jobs. Lack of demand has been holding this recovery back, and, inarguably, higher wages would help stimulate it." "Raising the minimum wage would start to solve this poverty problem. However, there are two things to take into consideration." "With minimum wage, the need for public assistance is lowered and this reduces the tax burden on the community and the state."

Stocks

Stocks: A stock is a share in a company that is traded. You can invest in different kinds of stocks like trades or investments. I can give my money to stockbrokers and tell them witch companies I want to buy a stock in and they will buy it. Stocks go up and down a lot and you don't want to buy a stock when you have emotional feelings for it. Its also a way for big companies to get money.

Dividonds: They are when companies will give you money when you buy some of their stocks.

Trade: Long term and will continue to go up in value. You don't want to buy a trade with emotions attached and set a time period to when you are going to sell it and follow it. Trades go up and down a lot and so you want to buy a trade in something that you know is going to keep going up in value ex: Apple or google

Catalyst: When you know a big event is going to happen and so you buy a trade or investment.

20% project

In the month of November I found out that why people can't bring animals to school cause of allergies and insurance issues. In December I'm wanting to work with the school and see if maybe one day I could bring a pet in and do walk the pods with it to introduce them. With that I would like to expand it to maybe once a day and see what I would have to do to get pets involved in school.
