I think it should only be scanned up to a certain point or time of browsing history.

The government has so much power over us already, I personaly feel that having them monitor every little thing we browse would be taking it over the line a little too far. We need to have our privacy and freedom too, just like every human being should have.

I agree. The government has so much control over us already, and controlling our every move on the internet would be a little too over the top. Taking precautions doesn't have to mean watching every little thing we browse on the internet.

If you are behaving yourself on the internet, browsing appropriate sites, and keeping personal information on the "down-low", the government watching over your moves shouldn't be an issue. It is however, an invasion of privacy and in my personal opinion...kept to a limit to not overpower our freedom.

Monitoring our every move on the internet is an invasion of one of our basic rights. There SHOUlD be SOME privacy, but not to an extent where our every little move needs to be watched.

I agree with you, Morgan. People shouldn't have to worry about the government watching over what they are doing on the internet if they are just doing what they should be doing on the internet. You shouldn't have to be monitored if you're respecting privacy laws and looking at appropriate media.

I agree, Ella. There is never a need for any innapropriate images, text, or media of any kind.

Example: Fifteen privacy groups have filed a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission seeking an investigation over deceptive trade practice. call for government action when its at it's strongest if Facebook breaks its promises. If Facebook violates its own privacy policy or its promises to users, government should and could investigate and take action to prevent further problems.

The privacy of what you do on the internet is a privilege and should stay that way, in my opinion.

No, because the privacy of how much you want to personally protect on the internet is up to you.

Without the Constitution, where would we stand as a nation? We would be a chaotic country... no rights, no laws, no freedoms. If our nation were to ratify the Constitution, the things we would take for granted in everyday life could be limited and/or taken from our possession, leaving us with an unstable government and future lifestyle.

We should keep it the way it is, but I don't agree that we are just going to "'forget it and write our own." Our country's Constitution will never be forgotten, and the possibilites of us "writing our own" is highly impossible. I do support your opinion with keeping the Constitiution in the state that it is currently in as of today though.

It is a disadvantage to us personally as citizens, because the different classes of people have different tax amounts to pay which has resulted in major politcal debates and arguments. I believe that all citizens should have to pay equal tax, and not have the different classes pay a different amount of taxes due to the level of 'class' they are classified at.

I believe that the Constitution should remain the same. The Constitution is what gives us our basic rights and provides us witht the freedom we maintain today as citizens of the United States. It is an effecient way of keeping our nation's government in check. The Constitution keeps everything in equal porportion, meaning that the government will always remain equal and one part could never overtake another part; acting as a wall that prevents our country's government to expand.

Views of the federalists and anti-federalists varied greatly in many ways. Anti-federalists disagreed with ratifying the Constitution for multiple reasons. They would continually argue that the Constitution gave too much power to our national government at the expense of the state government. They argued that the national government could have an army during peacetime. They greatly feared that a strong executive branch would in future times leave to monarchy. The lack of the Bill of Rihts was the focus and main viewpoint the Anti-Federalists against ratification.

The Federalists however, believed differently than the Anti-Federalists.The Federalists would have argued that the Constitution and state governments were enough to protect a citizen's freedom and display their rights in this country; so therefore there was no need to have the Bill of Rights. The Federalists were also in favor of the Constitution, while the Anti-Federalists opposed. The Federalists also maintained a strong central govenment and a strong national bank.

The Bill of Rights is known as the first ten parts of our Constitution. These rights are stating and protecting our natural rights, liberties, and properties. Many anti-federalists worried that our national government was a threat to a citizen’s rights and that our federal court system would be objected/turned down. They did not want to ratify our country's Constitution without a Bill of Rights. But on the other hand, Federalists wanted to ratify the Constitution and add the Bill of Rights later. The Bill of Rights contains a preamble, amendments, and articles. Our rights could not be stated without this section being an important part of the Constitution.

Our new government was then developed and split into three branches known as the executive branch, the legislative branch, and the judicial branch. The executive branch is the branch that is responsible for carrying out new laws or executing them. The legislative branch is the branch that is responsible for making up the laws. The judicial branch is the branch that is responsible for interpreting the Constitution and reviewing laws.

The Separation of Powers section of our Constitution played a major role in our country’s history and background. The Separation of Powers was devised by the writers of the Constitution to ensure that any branch of the government could be overruling and become more powerful than another branch. The separation of powers provides a system of shared power that is known as checks and balances.

The Supreme Law of our country was adopted on September 17th, 1787. That law is known as the United States Constitution. Our Constitution establishes the laws, separates powers with the three branches of government. The Constitution is the framework of laws, principles, functions, and powers in the United States. Our country's Constitution is made up of three parts known as the Preamble, articles, and amendments. It is a document that states our freedoms and lays down laws that are beneficial to our rights as citizens that belong to the United States of America.
