... exsanguination. Tate, who was eight months pregnant at the time of her death, was stabbed sixteen times in the chest and back (Fillmer par. 2). The following evening, in a seemingly unrelated crime, Leno and Rosemary LaBianca were discovered in their home at 3301 Waverly Drive. Rosemary was found face down in her bedroom, a lamp cord wound around her neck, in a pool of blood; she had been stabbed forty-one times. Her husband, Leno, had a pillow case over his head, a lamp cord tied around his neck, his hands tied behind his back with a leather thong, and an ivory-handled, bi-tined carving fork in his stomach; he had ...

... tax cuts. In both instances the decrease of high marginal tax rates somehow increased tax payments by the rich. Perhaps a foreshadow of things to come. Debates were raging over the Reagan tax cuts, known as the Economic Recovery Tax Act of 1981 (or, ERTA). This act was designed to spur savings, investment, work, and economic efficiency. This policy would impose a 25% across-the-board cut in personal marginal tax rates. In the act of decreasing marginal tax rates, and stimulating economic incentives, ERTA would increase the flow of resources into production, thus lifting economic growth. This policy receive ...

... least $11 billion more than Clinton’s plan over six years, from fiscal 2000 through fiscal 2005 (Congressional Quarterly Weekly, February 27,1999). Historically, those who favor Defense Department spending cuts cite the end of the Cold War with Russia and the resulting diminished need for troops and military hardware. Without the threat of nuclear war with Russia, the United States should not need to spend as much money as it had in the past to protect against a threat that no longer existed. Anti-missile defense systems could be eliminated or scaled back, fewer troops would need to be kept on alert, and antiqu ...

... the have and have not, as a circumstance it eliminates crime. Secondly in a Communist economic system people are never unemployed because the government owns the means of production. Meaning the governments owns all the factories and stores because their is no private owner ship in a Communist system. This is good because the government can control and decide what is needed for the good of society and produce it. Another reason why Communism is good is because everyone in the country is provided with a job, house and food; no one is denied the essentials of life. One of the most fundamental human right ...

... in two central areas, populist and elitist. Populist in that it seeks to activate "the people" as a whole against perceived oppressors or enemies and to create a nation of unity. The elitist approach treats as putting the people’s will on one select group, or most often one supreme leader called El Duce, from whom all power proceeds downward. The two most recognized names that go along with Fascism are Italy’s Benito Mussolini and Germany’s Adolf Hitler. The philosophy of Fascism can be traced to the philosophers who argue that the will is prior to and superior to the intellect or reason. George ...

... has skilled staffing for these people's needs however, not for a long-term stay. The patients are in need of a long-term treatment plan that can't be achieved through an Emergency Room. When the Mental Health Facility receives a phone call in reards to a patient that needs placemnet within their care, it takes hours for them to decide if they will take them as a patient. They have to go through the hierarchy of offices before they will give the okay for the patient to be transported. Once the patient has been accepted, there is an immense amount of paperwork that must be completed before the patient can be rele ...

... research into these subjects can provide strong indications toward the nature of this transition. Objectively, the evidence suggests that many of the ideas of classical liberalism were either abandoned or changed fundamentally when America entered the modern era. Freedom The idea of freedom has been a paramount concern of liberalism throughout history. Consider the classical ideas of religious freedom, the right to resist and the inherent right of every individual to be independent.

... on for decades and as of nowadays, there is no end in sight. There are many views on the topic of , some believe that decisions should be made of the patients¡¦ best interest, while others insist that men have the responsibility to prolong others¡¦ lives. Both sides have their own ideas to base upon, and this contradiction has brought along the topics for discussions. Some people believe that a person with an incurable disease or severe disability that turns life into pain or so burden that a meaningful and desirable existence has ceased, then this person should be allowed to die. Another argument is that th ...

... Teenagers most likely will drink in their lifetime. After that happens, they need to know that they are not capable of driving. This knowledge could prevent many accidents. Drinking is not necessarily a bad thing, if you are a responsible drinker. I think that if you know your going to a party and there is going to be alcohol, then you can reserve a ride before the party takes place. It’s all about taking responsibility for your own actions. It seems so ridiculous that people don’t have the common sense to know they can cause mass destruction if they are drunk behind the wheel. It’s a terrible thing to k ...

Most of the violence associated with anti-governmental attacks takes this form.

Property damage from bombings rose to $7.5 million, with 308 people injured and 31 killed. This does not take into account the tragic Oklahoma City bombing in 1995. Some ATF expe ...
