Yes, I had fun! The most important issue to me so far is the government surveillance one, because it goes both ways. The government can find out a lot of useful things if they monitor devices, but at the same time it invades privacy, so it's a tough and pretty important one.

I did. I think it's very important that those with low paying job's get their prescription drugs paid for because a person can't just die because they don't have enough money for medicine. I also hope that they don't legalize marijuana because people might react badly to it. Marijuana is a drug but not the kind that helps you it can kill you!I also I think and hope that the person that wins the Federal election helps out the Syrian refugees, that means a lot to me. See you all tomorrow!!

It was very interesting learning about the federal issues. Govenrment surveillence would probably be the most important because the government can monitor e-mails,texts, and phone conversations. But the governers can monitor personal information that may be private.

Yes, I had fun. I think the most important issue is university tuition because if you can't afford to go to university you can's get an good job. and you need money from your job

Yes, I did have fun. The most important issue to me so far is the government surveillance because it goes both ways it's good for the government so it can see what criminals are doing and it's also bad for us because the government is invading are privacy that's what I think. See you guys tomorrow bye. :)

I liked listening to people's topics. One of my favourite ones was Government Surveillance. as well because people's privacy is important to them. What if someone saw some of your personal information? I would be really upset.

I found it interesting learning about the federal issues. I think the most important issue would be the government surveillance because the government can see your emails and listen to your phone calls.

I found it cool to listen to peoples topics. The most important to me is parole hearing. Maybe the criminals might do something bad again.

I enjoyed listening to all of the topics and the pros and cons about it. The most important one for me would have to be Parole Hearing because it's important to keep us safe and letting go prisoners might danger us even more also harming the people who are specifically afraid and worried about that prisoner because maybe the prisoner did something to the family. The most responsible is Assad who bombed the Syrian refugees.

Yeah, It was pretty fun though, my topic was hard to explain and find pros and cons. But it was fun, and the most important thing it was fun is that my topic was renewing ENERGY (the capitalized one) Energy makes me curious or like makes thoughts of 'what kind of energy?' or similar to that..

Hi! Yes I enjoyed learning about the federal election issues, I found it super interesting! The most important one for me is Government Surveillance because it's got a good side and a bad side. What I mean by that is, the government and the police can stop crime, or prevent bad things from happening. The bad side is that you will have no privacy.I think that people that seem sketchy or weird should some how contact the govt. and then get to listen to their phone calls and other things and if that sketchy person was innocent then they should stop listening to the hone calls and stop reading their emails.Another bad thing is that your laptop,phone, iPad's etc. can get leaked and everyone can see your photo's,private phone calls, or even private emails.

Yes I did enjoy it. I think the most interesting topic was the government survallence. My topic was renewable energy. It was really hard to come up with pros and cons and the whole subject was kind of hard, because we didn't quite know what it was. But Mrs.Van helped out a bit.

I really enjoy learning about all the different governed issues because it was fun learning new things that could change in the future. I think the most important issue is University Tuitions because only the rich can pay for it but the poor that have really good grades can't afford it so everyone should have a chance of university. Hopefully that make sense. See you all tomorrow. ;D

Yes, so far I am enjoying socials studies and learning about the government. To me the most important problem is prescription drugs because you shouldn't have to suffer just because you cant pay for them. See you all tomorrow.
