America's major food corporations have turned its consumers into people who have chosen to see no objective but to eat their food because it is either affordable for them due to economic reasons or just because they genuinely like the food. However, just as "Killer At Large" pointed out, many of these consumers aren't educating themselves on how bad these "delicious foods" are even if its just a snack. The same health issues that many of us are trying to combat today like diabetes, heart diseases and obesity , it is become harder to take control these disease because of what these major corporations sell us telling us its what we can have. I myself knew what it was to grow up as a kid on the heavy side and not being able to control sugar cravings but it was mostly because its what was being advertised and exposed to me as a kid. Not to say that advertisements are to blame for a problem that can be early controlled by going on a diet, but sometimes that can be just as hard. Overall, it is important that we all educate ourselves on what we eat and where its coming from because many would be appalled to know what they are really putting in their stomachs.

Current Issue of Interest
This morning I caught the new before heading out to school and saw that the U.S embassy is under attack Syrian citizens who are appalled by the way their country is being taken care of and they have clearly shown that they will not withstand it anymore. what interest me the most about this is the fact that this isn't the first violent act towards a government. Its been clear that things are changing and many are taking control however they can and try to correct things in the manner they feel is fair for everyone. I condone this tremendeously because its beautiful to see humanity standing for themselves no matter what they may face!
