“We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.†This rather famous phrase came from the preamble of the United States Constitution, identifying what roles and/or objectives are able to create a perfect society. Although these times have proven that the United States is far from the utopia that it has ever dreamed of; this goal can still be accomplished one step at a time. In my opinion, the most challenging step that has been collapsing our society would be the economy. This issue has been affecting our nation for years, and it seems that no matter what idea that has come across to heal this crisis, more and more suffer poverty. We must ask ourselves: whom does the economy affect most, where does this problem begin, and what idea starts out producing petty cash to individuals and then ends up with funding an entire community? We must think of an idea in which can be funded without hurting the economy even more. The fate of our nation lies within the youth of America. Education is a key phase in a child’s life in which can help train a student to become wise, intelligent, strong, and seeking. There are many high school students who suffer from financial difficulties in turn having them put aside their schoolwork and studies in order to work and raise money for their families. Unfortunately, many students end up dropping out of high school. This affect could cause the person to become needy for money, and would develop a trait within that person to cause crimes such as theft, burglaries, and might even cause murder towards an innocent human. It is very critical to correct this problem, so that a child is able to obtain an education, and that his and/or her family will also be saved from their turmoil against poverty. I propose that the United States create a certain financial aid that begins at high school throughout undergraduate school, in which a student’s family will be funded with an amount of money suitable enough to help that family with their finances. This aid can only be given to families whose child attends high school or a 2-year/4-year college. This means that if that student drops out of high school or college, this aid will no longer be given to that student’s family. One way in which to fund this financial aid without taking money out of any more Americans would be by creating another lottery. Just as how the lottery helps fund our school system, creating this new lottery can help run this financial aid. Another way of how to keep this aid afoot is by America trading some of its energy resources to different countries and/or territories in exchange for profit. This aid does not only help families with financial debt, but it also can help lower the rate of high school and college dropouts. These ideas may not be the very best, yet they stand in the right direction without hurting anyone even more with their finances. I cannot just sit down while my own kind or even ones who are suffering even more than I am are going through such havoc and difficulties. This is an essay from the heart speaking of what must be done to correct a wrong, and produce a right. It is with this financial aid that we can finally bring our country towards a perfect society, towards a utopian empire. We finally can say that: “We the People of the United States are forming a perfect Unionâ€. It is with these words that God leaves you that will help trigger stamina within to lead our nation towards its perfect society; “Ask and you shall receive, seek and you shall find, knock and it shall be opened to youâ€. You figure out the rest!

I believe that your heart is in the right place. It would be nice to eliminate poverty and to provide an adequate standard of living for every individual in the world, not just the US or any other single country. But, let me provide a counterpoint. It has been proved over and over again throughout history that providing too many entitlements to those in need does not work in the long term. For example, people who exist at the boundaries, or margins, of these entitlements tend to lose their incentive to work hard to make only a few dollars more than the person who is not working at all. So, the person working close to those boundaries will tend to stop working a regular job which requires tax withholding and accept the handouts. This person will also tend to begin working unofficially and collect untaxed remuneration. That's just one example. To me, throwing money at the problem will not work. We should give everyone the opportunity to succeed, rather than entitlements which can be received merely through the act of existence. But, do I have a solution? No, unfortunately not. Until we human evolve to the point that we can embrace a higher level of consciousness which makes us feel that all of us are brothers, we will find this problem intractable.
