Thesis Paragraphs

Same Sex Marriage-
The government is always trying to be less discriminative towards non-whites, and non-Americans, but with same sex marriage being illegal in most states they are discriminating against non-straights. As the citizens of America we grow up being taught to not discriminate against people because they are different then us, and same sex marriage being illegal is doing the exact opposite.The United States church and government are supposed to be separated, but in this case they are not. The government is being unfair and although same sex marriage goes against most religious views, the government should not have a say over whether same sex couples can be married.


Drinking Age-
The United States has one of the highest drinking ages, some countries do not have drinking ages at all because there is no need for them. The government thinks that by having the drinking age at 21 it will be better for the country which in fact it is not. Underage drinking happens and everyone knows whether they want to or not. The fact that underage teens will get in trouble for drinking they hide it which can be more dangerous to their safety. The government also thinks that by having a higher drinking age their will be a lower death rate due to drunk driving accidents, but instead of not allowing teens to drink the government should be making the public especially the teens aware of the dangers of drunk driving and have more severe consequences for drunk driving.


Censorship in Music-
Although there should be some blocks on what is allowed to be said in songs, the rules should not be as strict as they are. The government tries to hide the real world to people, so when a new song comes out they have to make sure they are appropriate for all ages and what they want the public to hear. Artists have to make a version of a song, and if the song wants to be played on the radio they have to change it and yes they can sell the unedited version, but sometimes songs are completely changed because you are not allowed to curse in them. Cursing happens, and so does almost everything else that artists sing about in their songs, but if the government thinks it is not suitable for the public they have to make a censored version of the song.
