212 Words1 Page

Rastus 's trash is full of timeworn candy wrappers, broken chopsticks, Mr. Nakamoto 's cigarette butts, numerous business cards, membership cards, random notes, and family photos from the stolen wallets belonging to men and women all over the city. Just about all of the candy wrappers are from Wonka 's Sweet tarts and Now&Laters as those are his favorites.

  • Fourth Amendment Closets

    The fourth amendment protects us from many things, including the seizure of our property and possessions and unnecessary frisking. It was created to prevent the government and its branches from unlawfully violating privacy, and that’s how it should work, theoretically. Traditionally, a violation of our Fourth Amendment rights involved a physical invasion, like the seizure of papers or personal items, without a warrant. However, in this day and age, officers rarely need to physically violate this right to gain incriminating evidence. Many government agencies have a few skeletons in their closets when it comes to this.

    In “What You Eat Is Your Business,” Radley Balko tackles the issue of who is responsible for fighting obesity. Balko argues that the controversy of obesity should make the individual consumers culpable for their own health and not the government (467). As health insurers refrain from increasing premiums for obese and overweight patients, there is a decrease in motivation to keep a healthy lifestyle (Balko 467). As a result, Balko claims these manipulations make the public accountable for everyone else 's health rather than their own (467). Balko continues to discuss the ways to fix the issue such as insurance companies penalizing consumers who make unhealthy food choices and rewarding good ones (468).
