5 Things that Need to Change in the United States

The United States of America is a great place. But there are still many things that need to change in this country. These aren't major points about the US but they are things that need to be looked at more seriously.

The first item that needs to be changed is the population's obesity. Don't get me wrong, there are some people that aren't obese, some that were born with the genes and those that just plain eat too much. The ones im talking about in specific is those that out too much. There are probably 5 different Mcdonalds in a single block of a city. This needs to change, otherwise, people will take that publicity and eat there. The people need to start eating healthier, follow a better diet and exercise. Life is a one time thing, and you shouldn't throw it away by eating junk food that will make your life expectancy even shorter.

The second thing that the United States need to change is what the people believe in, that the president or any other powerful person makes them swallow. I mean if the president wants to say global warming is just a theory, then he might as well just say he wants to bomb another country for the heck of it. Honestly, global warming is happening, it has been happening for the past few years now, and nobody has really done something to drastically change this turn of events for the earth to its real fate it was supposed to follow.

The third thing that needs changing is the life style. No, this has nothing to do with diets or exercising, I am taking about those people living on the streets or the poor. There are many people that live so greatly, you might as well say they are living like kings. But to them, this is but a normal lifestyle. Is it really a normal lifestyle? If it was so normal, then that must have meant that those people on the streets, and those without any money to feed a family, must be living abnormally. Something needs to change, we need to provide shelter and food supplies for these people.

We're almost there! The fourth item on the list is health. There are many new diseases popping up in the world, the SARS virus and the avian flu are some of them. I bet that there are some that they won't let the people know about too. But the US should be providing some free health care, like Canada. It isn't necessarily free though, we pay them by taxes. But alot of us are probably willing to live that tax high life style in order to get a better health care. Another thing concerning the health topic is hospitals. Hospitals always seem to be full of people, some of them with small needs such as a cold. For those who are doing this, really just go to bed and take some cough drops. There are many people who really need the hospital for better purposes like those who are near death, and really need to get through!

Finally the last item I'd like to bring up is how badly people are getting lazy. People are getting so lazy they cannot walk to a garbage to throw their garbage out, instead they are throwing them on the streets, causing pollution and making them even more lazy. There are many other things they do, but i won't point them all out. The thing is people are getting lazy because of the many services given to the citizens. These services allow them to stay seated in their pyjamas and wait while they get what they need. This also includes driving cars, we should start walking or biking to work instead.

In the end, there are many different things that the US needs to change. But these 5 things are just some of the many things we just don't really look at. We should take this into consideration and think about it for a minute.
