Progressive Era

Hey Than-Fans,
      I know I haven't blogged in a while so here it goes (don't judge if I'm still a little rusty from the long break).

What three issues are still around today that were issues in the Progressive Era?

1. FDA regulations. People say that food is healthy and safe in grocery stores, but s that completely true? Is it just a coincidence that America still has the highest percent of obese people in one country? I don't think so. People can pretty much sell what ever they want to, even if they are inspected for harm to humans, but yet, people still get away with disgusting foods on our shelves.

2. Women's rights. People tell you that women have the same opportunities as men, but men working the same job as women almost get a full dollar more per hour. If you think that is equal, then you must have a very corrupt mind.

3. Environment. If you think that global warming is a joke that you should look at the statistics of the gradual rise in temperature. People are masting so much fuels and burning so much energy. We are at a record high of air pollution and this needs to stop.

Thank you Than-Fans. Always a treat!
