The Convince of Alcohol

After reading this article my colleague Octavine Daniels wrote I think it’s about time. We need these it’ll create more job opportunity I believe. In my opinion I don’t believe bartenders will be effected in this case. Bartenders are there more for a mixed drink as opposed to giving you a beer. People go to bars to have a drink made for them. If people want a beer they normally stop on their way home to buy a six pack. I believe the person who came up with the idea is pretty set. To have your card tied up with your driver’s license is pretty intense. I think they should maybe also add a breathalyzer to the machine just for an extra so it can be passed. As for my past two years living in Austin in West Campus and having vending machines in the lobby I always thought about why not a beer vending machine. It would be so much more convenient to just buy a beer that way. They’d probably make a ton of money if they set them up in the ski rises in downtown Austin as well. Most of them have vending machines and to add a liquor vending machine would probably be even more amazing. I’m talking like these places have like thirty floors of people I’m sure someone is thirsty and lazy in there. 

Expand Let Everyone Learn

Education for children is a big must in my opinion. After reading the article from Texas Monthly “The Plot Against Public Education” my heart was racing. I am certainly a strong believer in early childhood education. That is when we witness the child start to bloom. They learn personality traits, learn how to communicate and experience learning. I believe if we expand the pre-K program we will witness more children succeed. At this time children must be eligible for enrollment for pre-K. Which means so many children are being left out and are missing that early childhood education.  Children are missing out on education at such a young age. Parents are missing out on job opportunities due to staying home and taking care of their children because they are still not in school. That means not only one person is being effected but three. If we are to expand the opportunity for every child to start their education in pre-K we would see brighter futures. We’d have a parent back at work, an opportunity for a teacher, and a child learning. This would ultimately effect three people’s lives. Three people that would be on their feet learning and brightening their futures.
