Given the large number of transgender personnel already serving or having served in the military, there is no reason to believe ...

Electronic Dance Music festivals did not start off as it looks and feels today. Electronic Dance Music first began as an underground rave movement and were mostly small private affairs. The locations were often kept secret and were held in large, abandoned warehouses or any large, free and open space. What was underground in the 1980’s soon became a legitimate and huge music scene in the late 1990’s and 2000’s. This was a result of the change in nature of the genre as well as the possible revenues it could generate when legitimized. These new festivals ...

Gun ownership in the U.S. faced several controversies because some people were from the idea on the implementation of the gun control laws while the others opposed the idea. The proposed second amendment of the gun control is based on both the advantages and the disadvantages, but it is possible to identify some truth in it. Therefore, an individual’ understanding depended on their interpretation and the facts well known to them.
One of the cons was that the gun control laws did not deter crime, but gun ownership deterred (Lott, 2013). The Liberals believe that they can solve this ...

Experience and the law of economics prove that where there is demand, there will always be a supply. For this reason, among others, prohibition will not solve the drug problem in the United States.

People, who wanted to get the coveted drink, found a way to get it (Doremus and Canet 4). Of course, in order to buy alcohol, which was not recognized legally, people went to the underground ...

The debate as to whether or not to legalize marijuana in America has been heavily documented. Different states have different laws pertaining the vice.

Question 1

The federal government attempted to smooth over problems in the relationship between labor and management during World War 1 by extending the industrial disputes investigation act to war production. Why did labor oppose this action?
With the increased strained relation between labor and management during the World War 1, the government saw the extension of IDIA as the inevitable solution, a move that occasioned even much opposition from the labor movement. Much of the contention traces roots to the recent experiences. The experiences among the employees can be traced to the Kaiserian and profiteering principle (Fudge & Tucker, 2015). Both ...

It is an interesting aspect of history and that prior to the 16th century Europe and its various nations were merely a barbaric and insignificant periphery on the world stage. Great Asian powers dominated most of the known world, both militarily and economically.

In no small part due to its superior ships and superior seamanship, Europe was able to use its newfound capabilities to tap into the riches to be gained from both the New World and Asia. ...

Meanwhile for richer countries, those whose earnings may be considered within range in another state may be classified as poor in terms of such count.
Research has shown that poverty ...

Russian model Valentina Zelyaeva says: "I think it's discrimination. We are skinny; this is our work.
