Project draft update 2

Project first draft
First Paragraph

Introduction
Over a wide range of time including WWII era to the late 20th century the people and the government have struggled with finding the near impossible, this being a clear and rightful balance between government control and the effect that control has on peoples individual reasponsiblity, personal freedom, and respect of human dignity. Within three different time periods we see a growth in the amount of freedom, responsibility, and dignity. Through the domestic policiys of WWII, the civil rights movement, and the presendency of we see a slow but determined growth in these important ideas (sample introduction paragraph, will deffently be changed in near future)

First paragraph
Demestic Policies WWII
1. Selective Service
A. Freedom- Selective Service system expanded draft to recruit needed soldiers. Opposed personal freedom because it was not a choice if you were drafted, this caused many to lose there freedom of choosing what they wanted to do.
B. Responsibility- Though being drafted into the army would give a person a greater amount of responsibility, it would not be personal responsibility because they are not personally taking responsibility for there actions this responsibility is something that is being almost forced upon them by the government.
C. Dignity- This idea did not really respect human dignity because people were drafted and sent out to fight and mabey even killed with out really even being given a choice. Also it did not offer much respect to women who wanted to become part of the war because they were forced to take jobs in the army that had very little to do with combat.
2. Rationing
A. Put extreme moneriting on the consumption of food and other products whict demonstrated not a lot of freedom because people lost some of there personal freedom when the government decided to control food and goods that were being distributed.
B. This actually showed growth in personal freedom because after the government established this system many people started to view it as there own personal responsibility to help out with the war and many people took up things such as car pooling and coping together as a family to help the countrie through the difficult time.
C. Rationing did little to help human dignity as many were forced to struggle with having very little also many lost respect for dignity when they started to purchase these items illegally off of the black market.

Connections: These two ideas come together to show that in this time period of war many had very little IR, PF, and HD. This connects to the theme that over the course og more time this will change and grow as we see a growth in IR, PF, and HD.
