The Leaders

Today in our awesome Wednesday class, we all had a discussion about the leaders of mostly all the very important countries such as China, Germany, and the United States of America. We had to gather two interesting factoids about the countries' leader.  I thought that the most interesting fact was about Dilma Rousseff, Brazil's main leader. It turns out that she was actually tortured for trying to over through the country. After her imprisonment, Dilma ran for President of Brazil and won even though she tried to take over the country when she was a young adult. Another current leader also tired to take over his country, was thrown in jail for it, and is now ruling it. It is amazing to see how willing people are to fight for what they believe is right. Even after they were put in jail for some odd years, they continue to fight for what they want the country to be like. Those people who fight for the country are definitely great leaders.

Barack Obama- United States of America Barack Obama fielded criticisms for the tax plans he proposed for the American people if he got elected. The President has been taking great pains to reassure that it will only be the rich who will be affected by the higher tax policy.
