3 Blogs That Are Almost As Cool As Mine!

Occupation: Unemployment

I am directing you to this wonderfully thought out blog because it deals with unemployment as well.  This is one of the most important debates in America at the moment. This blog is worth taking a look at because it provides a non bias look into the topic.  Many solutions to unemployment are mostly bias, but in this blog, the bias is removed and the reader is left with the simple facts.  This writer gives a good basis on what he feels would save us from the unemployment crisis and also goes in depth with the solutions that the government has put forth. This blog is perfect for student who will be searching for a job within a few years or anyone who wants a clearly illustrated explanation of unemployment in general.

Digging for Trouble

The oil drilling blog, Digging for Trouble, talks about the offshore drilling debate in the United States. This blog is enlightening and brings a lot of interesting and controversial environmental issues to the forefront.  I have not kept myself up-to-date on the issue with the oil leak and the environmental issues that have been caused by the spill so I really enjoyed reading it.  It taught me a lot about the issue and enlightened me on the subject. I realized just how dangerous, necessary, and dependent our country is on offshore drilling.

The Border: Where Immigration and Race Meet

I found this blog interesting because I have always been interested in the topic of immigration.  My mother’s side of the family is half German and half Mexican (crazy mixture, I know) and I constantly heard people discussing the illegal immigration of Mexicans into the U.S.  I have always been proud to say that my grandma is, in fact, one of the legal ones!! This blog was good at providing information about illegal immigrants into our country. I agree with his view that America should work on trying to keep more illegal immigrants out than trying to get rid of the ones that are already in. I've always been really passionate about this issue; sometimes feeling sorry for immigrants and other times feeling disgust (like when they whistle at you. I must say it’s lovely being a woman). I think the writer of this blog did a great job not bringing in much emotion and giving facts and unbiased information.
