Internet Influence.

The internet influences citizen participation around the world. For example, when the people of Egypt were planning on rebelling against Mubarak, they organized every single strike and meeting viz Facebook or Twitter. If it weren't for the internet, Mubarak would still be in power to this very day. The citizens of Egypt could not have organized any of stuff they did if it weren't for the interenet. The internet also made it possible for the people to post videos of the horrific acts committed by the government and Mubarak's men. These videos help show the world how horrible Mubarak was which inspires other countries to help Egypt with their time in need. The internet doesn't influence people to act just in Egypt but it happens all over the world because almost everybody in the world uses the internet and it's a very quick, convenient way to communicate and keep people updated.

Even Jerry Brown's opponent wants him to win.

This political add is the single best advertisement in my opinion. I think it's very effective for many reasons. First of all, it shows Meg Whitman (Jerry Brown's opponent) addmitting that Jerry Brown himself made a great governer for the state of California. Not only does Meg Whitman point out how good of a job Jerry Brown did 30 years ago but she said that "Anything was possible back then" and acted as if California was in it's best shape ever...under the control of Jerry Brown. Another reason why I think this ad is so great is because Jerry Brown doesn't go out of his way to put Meg down or bring him up. When political candidates advertise by putting their opponent down, it makes them look desperate for votes in my opinion where as Jerry Brown simply stated a fact and let Meg do the rest. When Meg Whitman said that on live television she was pretty much digging her own grave.

E-commerce Taxation.

There are many issues regarding electronic commerce in America's society today. Electronic commerce consists of buying or selling products or services over the internet and it's very difficult to figure out how to tax these goods. First of all, when you order a good online it's not always from the same state as you. Say you live in California where the tax is over nine percent and you buy a product or service from Texas where there's no tax what so ever. Do you pay tax or not? If so, how much? Most of the time people would turn to the federal government for help but there simply are no federal taxes. Thus, making this problem very difficult to solve.
