From Punishment to Transformation: A Radical Solution That Would Change Our Legal System Forever!
Our legal system is undeniably flawed, especially when it comes to addressing the complex issue of criminal behavior. While punishment has traditionally been the focus of our justice system, it's time to shift our perspective and put more effort into understanding the root causes of crime. Rather than simply inflicting punishment, we need to develop comprehensive post-incarceration programs that prioritize rehabilitation and reintegration. By doing so, we can facilitate a smooth and successful re-entry into society, promoting positive change and reducing recidivism rates.

President to Apply "Nutritional Facts Labels" to Foreign Countries
January 20th (Washington, D.C.) – As an emotionally drained and exhausted crowd looked on, the freshly installed President revealed the last of ten Executive Orders to kick off the new administration. People who had expected to attend a party celebrating the first independent leader of the free world since George Washington were shocked to find the Inauguration Ceremony cut short and themselves made witness to the President’s irreversible and world-shattering agenda, one that some are calling reckless and dangerous. But not even disarming America’s nuclear capabilities, pulling troops out of strategic locations around the world, or letting terrorists run free were as thoughtless and perilous as what happened with this final Executive Order.

The Cost of Living: Assisted Suicide and Poverty in North America
The idea of medically assisted death is not new in North America. Dr. Jack Kevorkian, the infamous “Dr. Death,” thrust the concept of physician-assisted suicide into the public consciousness in the 1990s (Filc et al., 2019). Kevorkian’s homemade “Mercitron” machine, used to end the lives of willing patients, made him both a pariah and a pioneer. His actions ignited fierce debates about the ethics of euthanasia and the right to a dignified death.

We Should Be Concerned About New Anti-protest Legislation
Amid the nauseating guff that was spouted all weekend on the news channels vis-a-vis the recent coronation of Charlie Three, there was a side issue that was too big for the news media to ignore. I refer to the police clampdown against those who desired to make it known via placards that the head of state is Not My King, an act of suppression more suited to the regime of North Korea than the free-speech-loving inhabitants of John Bull’s Island.
