"US Gov fun times" Review

The article I will be discussing in the post was written by a fellow classmate. The original post can be found HERE.

The title of this blog post by Madison Galvan really caught my eye and was the reason I decided to do my commentary on her post. "US Gov fun times". While the title is not very specific, the article is actually very well developed and makes quite a few great points! Maddie starts off her report by introducing her topic, the U.S. government and how it has adapted over the years, clearly and concisely. With this introduction we also learn her stance on how she believes change is essential to society, a statement I back wholeheartedly. As we learned in the beginning of the course, treating a government institution like an untouchable, almost holy establishment is dangerous to the advancement of society.

Following her introduction, Maddie provides a solution to a problem she has found within our government, a disappointing lack of participation in politics. I believe her solution is well backed up as well as well documented. She suggests the implementation of electronic voting, something we have discussed previously in a discussion board post. Electronic politics seems like the best possible advancement, especially considering our modern dependence on technology. Maddie also finishes her post with a fun comment, "The constitution and other rules we abide by were written over 200 years ago when they didn’t even have septic systems. Its time for a change." This is both comedic and a strong call for action. I believe her blog post was very well executed!
