We chose to invest in the stocks we did by trying to invest in things that are necesities and also have sighns of doing well. Also, it was very important to keep our portfolio some what diverse so that if one category of products was not doing very well, others may doing very well and not affect total revenue. By investing in stocks that were not related. For example, buying stocks in food and buying stocks in technology. The stocks that saw the most financial growth were the shares in technology (intecticdx_n) by far more than any other shares. Our portfolio held up to be profitable and was diverse enough to earn much more money in different fields while others suffered. Our total revenue was enough to not only maintain the amount that we had started with but to add to it by a significant amount. I believe that in the long term we it would have been a good decision with the portfolio we had chosen. Although certain stocks did not do so well, over time they may start to earn much more money. But without depending on those certain stocks to better and having other much more profitable stocks to maintain income. Although we did earn more money than we had started with, I saw that the market is not very stable and does not insure that you will not only lose money. I also saw that just as fast as money could be made,it could be lost.This was shown by how one day a stock was earning money , and the next it was losing money. So in conclusion I would decide not to invest in the stock market due to how unstable it could be. What I learned from this experience is a new understanding of how out economy works. How much citizens help the economy. And also how easy it is for them do so. The stock market makes it very easy for people to play a role in almost money from a vast assortment of categories. I also learned how much of a gamble it is to invest money in the stock market, and that you really must invest a large amount of money to be able to make any back. One thing that I would change about the experience is tasks to research facts about the stocks that we had bought and also what was effecting them to gain or lose money.

often when people think of the constitution they invision an ancient piece of paper which outlines our government.What they do not see is a testament to all of the many compromises that were made while in creating it.They fail to see how our fore fathers had only the future in mind in while constructing the constitution.One of the or maybe the greatest compromises was the Great Compromise. On june 29, 1787 in philadelphia the New Jersey plan and the Virginia plan were debated for 4 days.The New Jersey plan ,which was proposed by William Paterson ,outlined a one house legislature with representatives selected by the states,each state would be able to cast one vote.This plan favored the smaller states and was much like the plan of government of the day,the articlles of confederation. the virginia plan, which was proposed by edmund randolph.this plan proposed a three separate branches of government and a bicameral legislature in which a state's representation would be based on population or taxes paid by the state.This plan favored the larger states and is much like the form of government we have today. When the dust finaly settled in philadelphia a Great Compromise was reached.This compromise defined a bicameral legislature (2 house) where states would be equally represented in the senate, while represented based on population in the house of representatives,.This agreement which also came to be known as the Connecticut Compromise,because Roger Sherman was from connecticut and played a large role in the agreement.This proved to be a perfect compromise which favored the small states in the senate and the large states in the house of representatives. In the articles of confederation there was a major problem which constitution repaired.It was that for congress to pass a law every state must vote in favor of it.therefore it was nearly imposible for any laws to be passed.the new constitution said that laws could be passed on a 2/3 vote.also in the articles of confederation the congress had little power to fix the current problems like trade wars happening internationaly and and between the states.The constituion gave many more powers essential to settle problems as they occur.These powers are outlined in the constiution in article 1, section 8 where you can find Enumerated,implied powers and the elastic clause.

Optimism is disease
nothing more.

lets all just blow out our brains
and nnt with a bullet.

lets inject the junk
through our eyelids and father's faces!

maybe we can turn into vegetables planted on an chemically covered garden..

nothing is worth consciousness...nothing...not love or hate
let us wave the rifles mindlesly...because enjoyment is the only thing that matters.....get rich get high and die...

why does my brain feel this but yet i feel pretty happy most of the time...
