Government

Our government is said to be the best, I think I may put that to the test. We let young future mothers kill Their unborn children. We have laws against murder but, We also have "Legal" murder. No adult child or other wise would Be legally killed before their living life is up. But, we can't say the same for our unborn. They could cure cancer, or AIDS, Or be our next President. But they will never be given the chance Because they will be dead before They were given a chance to live. Everyday a child is forgotten, Abused or abandoned. Everyday a woman is struck by her husband. Everyday the elderly have to decide between food and medication. Everyday there are reports of: Dead beat Dads, Messed up Moms, Crooked Cops and Kidnapped Kids. Life is good with our government but, it is not without flaw.
