Their could be a big debate about this with all the different classes of people there are. People that live on the poverty line, in the middle or those wealthy ones. A lot of Tax money goes towards to what the government wants to provide the community with. Things such as building new roads, making more community schools/buildings, etc. But of course this needs a lot of money to start a project and finish it. So if the tax rate went up then the community around could get better and better by the years. But with such diverse financial standards, some people cant even afford to give up the money they have when tax rates are low. So with having a median where people with more income could pay more towards the community and those that are financially unstable, can pay their debts but not the amount of those who make triple the money they do. ]]> 2018-09-28 17:21:06 UTC https://padlet.com/wsandoval204220/196sey84lre8/wish/287064156 Vanessa vmartinez204068 https://padlet.com/wsandoval204220/196sey84lre8/wish/287064229 Should the IRS be abolished? 
- The IRS should be abolished because they don't pay taxes, they hire questionable employees, most agents abuse the public, and they are doing union work on the taxpayers dollar. 
How can the Federal Budget be trimmed?  What should be cut? 
- The Federal Budget can be trimmed by not abusing the dollar amount we have. Many think we can go around and spend money, but in reality that will get us in dept.I think a lot of it goes to Medicare and I think a lot of people take advantage of it.

I think there are many ways to fix unemployment. Some of those many ways would be; lowering the standards of the requirements, and offering jobs with lower pay. By lowering the requirement standards of some jobs people who don't meet the requirements of other high requirement jobs could apply for the low requirements jobs. By offering jobs with lower pay people who are unemployed and make zero money can at least get some money.]]> 2018-09-28 17:21:23 UTC https://padlet.com/wsandoval204220/196sey84lre8/wish/287064263 Leandro V. lvelazquez204299 https://padlet.com/wsandoval204220/196sey84lre8/wish/287065419 Should the US continue to fund Social Security?
The US should continue to fund Social Security only for those of old age , and those truly disabled, and unable to support themselves.

Why are unemployment numbers inaccurate in the Press? Should they be accurate? 
Unemployment numbers are inaccurate in the Press because the numbers provided to the Press by the Government does not include the amount that are being fired and re employed.]]> 2018-09-28 17:23:59 UTC https://padlet.com/wsandoval204220/196sey84lre8/wish/287065419 Anthony Chavez achavez203881 https://padlet.com/wsandoval204220/196sey84lre8/wish/287065756 How should student debt be dealt with?
I think college should be free or greatly reduced. That would limit or terminate the thousands and thousands of dollars of student debt. Students go to college to become successful in life. College is already hard and stressful enough. Being a crazy amount of money in debt is just overkill.]]> 2018-09-28 17:24:50 UTC https://padlet.com/wsandoval204220/196sey84lre8/wish/287065756 Group Answer: achavez203881 https://padlet.com/wsandoval204220/196sey84lre8/wish/287066380

    • - Analyze the impact of fiscal policy. decisions on the economy. Expansionary fiscal policy try to increase economic output (to get out of a recession). include difficulty of changing spending levels, predicting the future, delayed results, political pressures, and coordinating fiscal policy. 
    • Can the government provide solutions to everything?
    - I don't think they provide solutions because I feel like they don't know everything that is going to happen, and I feel like they have other things to worry about.

Thing such as energy/environmental security, so having such technologies that keep us safe from catastrophes and reducing fossil fuels and gas emissions from ruining our air quality. Also competition of the new area is a thing that we have to keep up with, everything happening around in the world and the things that are yet to come. With rises of new powers also makes a big change in how things are run and what is focused on in those 4-8 years they are in charge. There are many more challenges but these would be the ones on the top scale. ]]> 2018-09-28 18:18:53 UTC https://padlet.com/wsandoval204220/196sey84lre8/wish/287097264
