Creation of new parks and preservation of existing ones

Recreation and leisure activities are very critical dimensions (of the quality of life for all people, even those with disabilities) related to human development. Leisure and recreational facilities can be used as vehicles through which people can have fun, meet new people, and develop relevant skills and competencies.

Political Opinion and Factors Affecting Voting Process

Abstract
People share common interests, their opinion express their attitudes on a particular subject, when people share the same point of view; they have what we call consensus or simply, public opinion.

Introduction

The debate on the adequacy and sufficiency of presidential versus parliamentary systems has been raging since the fall of the Soviet Union and its communist ideals.

Having a big government does not in any way mean that the country has a better government. The main reasons why small governments are better than big governments is because in small governments, there is less corruption. Having big governments means having more departments. It is hard for the authority in charge of the departments to dispense their duty well, in terms of ebbing corruption, since they are hard to manage. However, small governments are easy to manage since they have fewer departments, hence transparency and accountability. In addition, it is easy to deliver services to the citizens in Continue reading...

Both the Virginia and New Jersey Plans are similar in terms of proposing a federal government for the United States (US) divided into the executive, legislative and judicial branches. However, both the Virginia and New Jersey Plans differ from one another in terms of power distribution. Greater legislative power is promoted by the Virginia Plan, which plans to delegate executive and judicial appointments to the legislature. Proponents of the New Jersey Plan, however, recommended a more balanced power distribution by enabling the legislature to appoint officials to the executive branch, which in turn would appoint officials to the judiciary.
