Document Summary

Having someone watch on you every move you make is not an ideal day and privacy means something in this free country. Yet there is a number of governments official and people who spy on a particular person for reasons. Maybe having the government spy on you is a story by stalking takes the creeps to a whole different level. Even though the governments have the right to surveil the public, privacy, ethics, and norms should play a huge role in it. When thought about the surveillance of fbi, it could be good and well as bad based on the statistics shown in the last couple of years says, neema guliani, a senior legislative counsel at aclu. Neema shows the stats on the positives, according to the fbi, from october 2017 to april. 2019, the fbi ran over 152000 searches of its face recognition system that matches mugshots.

17- We have so many people who can't see a fat man standing beside a thin one without coming to the conclusion the fat man got that way by taking advantage of the thin one. So they're going to solve all the problems of human - misery through government and government planning. Well, now, if government planning and welfare had the answer-and they've had almost 30 years of it -shouldn't we expect government to read the score to us once in a while? Shouldn't they be telling us about the decline each year in the number of people needing help? The reduction in the need for public housing?

18- But the reverse is true. Each year the need grows greater; the program grows greater. We were told four years ago that 17 million people went to bed hungry each night. Well that was probably true. They were all on a diet. But now we're told that 9.3 million families in this country are poverty-stricken on the basis of - earning less than 3,000 dollars a year. Welfare spending [is] 10 times greater than in the dark depths of the Depression. We're spending 45

How does Reagan use contrast to make his point in the highlighted text from Sec. 15 and Sec. 16 of "A Time for ChOosing"?

B. Reagan contrasts the Federal Housing Authority WITH the Veterans Administration.

C. Reagan contrasts private property rights WITH government planners.

D. Reagan contrasts public housing WITH mortgage foreclosure.

15- Meanwhile, back in the city, under urban renewal the assault on freedom carries on. Private property rights [are] so diluted that public interest is almost anything a few government planners decide it should be. In a program that takes from the needy and gives to the greedy, we see such spectacles as in Cleveland, Ohio, a million-and-a-half-dollar building completed only three years ago must be destroyed to make way for what government officials call a "more compatible use of the land." The President tells us he's now going to start building public housing units in the thousands, where heretofore we've only built them in the hundreds. But FHA [Federal Housing Authority] and the Veterans Administration, tell us they have $120.000$ housing units they've taken back through mortgage foreclosure. For three decades we've sought to solve the problems of unemployment through government planning. and the more the plans fail, the more the planners plan. The latest is the Area Redevelopment Agency.

16. They've just declared Rice County, Kansas. a depressed area. Rice County, Kansas, has two hundred oil wells, and the 14,000 people there have over 30 million dollars on deposit in personal savings in their banks. And when the government tells you you're depress down and be depressed.

CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE

by David Henry Thoreau

Section 19 - The authority of government, even such as I am willing to submit to--for I will cheerfully obey those who know and can do better than I and in many things even those who neither know nor can do so well--is still an impure one to be strictly just, it must have the sanction and consent of the governed. It can have no pure right over my person and property but what I concede to it. The progress from an absolute to a limited monarchy, from a limited monarchy to a democracy, is a progress toward a true respect. for the individual. Even the Chinese philosopher was wise enough to regard the. individual as the basis of the empire. Is a democracy, such as we know it, the last improvement possible in government? Is it. not possible to take a step further towards recognizing and organizing the rights of man? There will never be a really free and enlightened State until the State comes to recognize the individual as a higher and independent power, from which all its own power and authority are derived, and treats him accordingly. I please myself with imagining a State at least which can afford to be just to all men. and to treat the individual with respect as a neighbor: which even would not think it inconsistent with its own repose if a few were to live aloof from it, not meddling with it, nor embraced by it, who fulfilled all the duties of neighbors and fellow-men. A State which bore this kind of fruit, and suffered it to drop off as fast as it ripened. would prepare the way for a still more perfect and glorious State, which also I have imagined, but not yet
