Equal Pay for Woman
If the U.S. is a free and equal country, then why are women getting less money while doing the same jobs as a man?

White Bear Lake is Shrinking
At least once a week in the summer I go in White Bear Lake on beaches or on boats. I’ve notice a big difference in the lake and it’s community, the beaches have been shrinking which makes people need to pay for that. Therefore we should do something about the water shortage because people are moving off the lake because of the high taxes.
