The U.S National Government is a government that is divided up into three main branches. The judicial branch, executive, and legislative branch. Each branch is supposed to have an equal amount of power that is supposed to be shared among them. Even though at time it may not seem like it. The judicial branch is the branch in which the United States government is responsible for the administration of justice. Th legislative branch is the branch in which has power to legislate the United States. And the executive branch is the branch of government in which the United States government is responsible for carrying out the laws. These 3 branches carefully work together to try and make life much easier for citizens whenever trying to decide which laws should be passed and which of those shouldnt. Many important decisions are made and carried out with the three main branches of government. The U.S National Government has a very strcit process when it comes to changing a bill into a law. First in order for a bill to even be brought up many citizens must come up with the idea and bring it to the attention of  a member from congress to even be considered to be an idea. The president and his administration can also suggest an idea for a bill if they wanted to. Representatives need a copy of the bill and have to specifically place it into a bin where all the other new suggested bills are placed. After a bill is aproved to be a bill it is then reffered to the whole house in which they have to vote if they want the bill to pass or not. If the bill is passed it is then organized and published, all documents that are approved in the white house are marked in blue. After all amendments are offered and voted upon, and all Senators who wish to talk have had a chance to, the bill is put forth for a vote. Once a bill leaves the House and Senate the bill must be checked and revised to make sure it is almost perfect. The bill can't have any puncuation problems at all or else it is reconciled. If the bill is free of any mistakes, errors or mis interpretations then it is sent over straight to the president where even he can decide if the bill should be passed as a law. If the president agrees on it then it is past and the bill is turned into a law. If the bill does not pass though it is sent back in which the house has to vote on it again and if it is more than the needed amount of votes then the bill is passed regaurdless whether the president wanted to pass it as a law or not. Its quite complicated in all the steps a bill must go through in order for it to become a law.
Our National Government has many laws that the citizens and its leaders in power must accept to in order for our government to be functional. I think that the rules that are set forth are acceptable for example in order to become eligible to run for the President Of The United States you must be national born, 35 years old, and you must have been a resident of the United States for at least 14 years. Some may think that these standards are to strict but, in fact they are set forth in order to make sure that random people from other countries don't try and attempt to run president and perhaps try and control the entire United States. Our national Government has 538 total Electors, which is decided by the number of Representatives plus the number of senators. In order to become a member of the senate one must be 30 years old, a citizen for 9 years, and live in the state in which you are hoping to get elected for. usually when it comes to presidents to get elected the most common advantages they might have is if they have name recognition, incubency advantage, trappings of the office and franking privellage.

USA Today When it comes to technology we all love to hear about the latest new phones, ipods, and t.vs that are out there. Technology also has its ups and downs just as well though as everything else. In the blog entry titled Technology Live the intended audience is towards commuters who are always dashing through the busy streets of city's.A particular scooter named Scoot is a scooter that involves using the technology of your cell phone. You use an app on your iPhone to reserve a scooter in a particular area and then use your cell phone as a key to the scooter. The author argues that this would be a great opportunity for technology to greatly improve and for other people to be more motivated into making inventions such as the Scoot for people to use in their every day lives. Their claim is that it will make it much quicker for people to get around since they can just reserve the scooter and it will be available for them to use when they need to, they also claim to say that it would be a price of $5 for an hour and discounts will be made for those who use it on a regularly basis. They try and convince people by saying that people will get a discount since everybody loves to get discounts on things. Their evidence to this claim that it will work sufficiently is that "it is a hybrid of three new but proven technologies: Chinese electric motorbikes (tens of millions are on the road, growing by over 10 million per year); European bike sharing (hundreds of cities have deployed such systems in recent years); and real-time, mobile transportation services (e.g. Get Around, Uber)". Their logic is if they give people a couple numbers of other people who are using a technology similar to the Scoot then they will be easily persuaded into this new idea and invention.

I don't really agree with this argument as much since not everybody has the iPhone and some people have other models and types of cell phones. This invention would not really be an invention that everybody could experience since in order to reserve and actually use the Scoot scooter you must purchase the iPhone. I believe this isn't really a technology for improving the way that people move around in the busy streets but a way for the iPhone company's to make more business and cell more phones. If people do like the idea of the scoot scooter they will have to go and buy an iPhone in order to experience this new kind of technology which wouldn't be fair to the other people who don't have these phones. A good technology improvement would be something that would better things for people and make it easier for them not more costly as in having to go buy a new phone in order to be updated with everybody else. If you pay attention to this blog closely it can actually be looked at as an add for people to go and buy an iPhone since technologies are starting to revolve around them and the will be occurring very soon.
