What are our current working conditions like today? How are they different from working conditions in the past? How would you feel if going to work was a dangerous task? How about if you had to work long days?

the working conditions today are positively horrible, in my opinion, this has to do with Obama being our president! most people don't even have jobs and are having a hard life because of it. the working conditions in the past were similar, but people at least had jobs back then. the only difference is that their jonds were a bit dangerous, especially in the factories. i think i would endure the job, yet of course i would be afraid to. i could be ok with long days, just as long as i had a few days.

january 9 quick qrite

right now, i am 15 years old, i have to wait three more years until i am able to vote. yes i am excited to exercise this right because i want to be able to not vote for presidents like Obama  the voting needs common sense voters, which i plan to be. if i wasn't allowed this right i would hold rallies, and put posters up everywhere, and that sort of thing, just so i got a chance to vote.
