A Letter To Rich, Corporate America

To what end will you stop?

A Letter To Rich, Corporate America
Star Tribune

Dear Corporate America,

Your economy is bound to slip from your grasp. Your companies are losing alliance. Your branches are losing their green leaves and those leaves are dying off, one by one, two by two, or in other cases you're clipping them off. You're stuffing your ears with your greasy white handkerchiefs as you count your dollars bills over the cries of millions of people. You turn your face up at anything that does not suit your fabricated therapeutic deism. You paint those different than you as a threat to mankind. Your fear has manifested into one of the most dangerous of behemoths. Those who don't agree must leave your presence. To be quite honest, those who don't agree with you, and are Muslim and/or colored, are now a target.

You may need to re-evaluate some things. What are you going to do when there's no one else left but you? You spit on the hands that you shake. You piss on the hands that feed you. You are as cancer to the Earth; you are as a sword in Mother Nature's spine. You are a corrupt plastic surgeon, a dead man walking. To what end will you stop? You've succeeded in polluting the air and the land that you share with those you see as your inferiors. Anyone who is not you and not of your kind is seen as subpar, or subhuman, we don't need clean air. Clean water is for those who work for it, and clean land is for those who earn it. You'll abuse the poor until the poor are those who make 10 cents less than you...and then who is left?

And so I ask you again, what are you going to do when you've run out of people to do your dishes for you? What are you going to do when you have no one to work in your factories anymore, to make your coffee for you, to grow your food for you? What are you going to do when the oxygen is no longer oxygen; when your source of hydration is as acid to all matter and when the food you eat is no longer consumable? What are you going to do when you've run out of everyone else around you but yourself?

Sincerely,
Real America

As college students, we are all familiar with the horror show that is course registration week. Whether you are an incoming freshman or selecting classes for your last semester, I am certain that you can relate to how traumatic this can be.

1. When course schedules are released and you have a conflict between two required classes.

Bonus points if it is more than two.

Economic Benefits of Higher Wages

Nobody deserves to be living in poverty.

Raising the minimum wage to a livable wage would not only benefit workers and their families, it would also have positive impacts on the economy and society. Studies have shown that by increasing the minimum wage, poverty and inequality can be reduced by enabling workers to meet their basic needs and reducing income disparities.

I come from a low-income family. A family, like many others in the United States, which has lived paycheck to paycheck. My family and other families in my community have been trying to make ends meet by living on the minimum wage. We are proof that it doesn't work.

As an English Major in college, I have a lot of writing and especially creative writing pieces that I work on throughout the semester and sometimes, I'll find it hard to get the motivation to type a few pages and the thought process that goes behind it. These are eleven thoughts that I have as a writer while writing my stories.

April Ludgate

Every college student knows and understands the struggle of forcing themselves to continue to care about school. Between the piles of homework, the hours of studying and the painfully long lectures, the desire to dropout is something that is constantly weighing on each and every one of us, but the glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel helps to keep us motivated. While we are somehow managing to stay enrolled and (semi) alert, that does not mean that our inner-demons aren't telling us otherwise, and who is better to explain inner-demons than the beloved April Ludgate herself? Because of her dark-spirit and lack of filter, April has successfully been able to describe the emotional roller-coaster that is college on at least 13 different occasions and here they are.
