class today

Today in class we reviewed the words given to us Friday. We talked about how the united states is actually a republic and not a democracy. A few ways that we show democracy by voting in modern times is same sex marriage, legalizing medical marijuana, and school redistricting. We also spent a fair bit of time talking about Socrates and how he let people believe what they want and questioned them on why they believe in that. He was trialed for two things, his defense was that they should be thanking him and giving him free meals for life.
