Censorship

China and google are currently teamed up within China. The Chinese government requires google to censor specific topics. These topicsx include things such as voting, democracy, and open eletions. Google wants to stop the censorship of such items within China. The government feels that if censorshiop is lost, citizens will revolt against the covernment causing widespread chaos. China is currently a world superpower and only rising in industry, population and nation wide tests scores. Can the censorship within China be maintained within a nation that is beggining to call for a voice in their gorvernment?

  1. I think that China is a friend. I think that we should work together rather than start a fight.

  8. Well then the government should realize that they are just trying to make an impact on the country. They should just let them have freedom to see whatever they want!

  12. Because even in the old days water was able to be used as an energy source and I think with all the new technology that they will be able to invent something that will allow water to be a new fuel source.

  13. I don't think it's right that their fighting of it. It's reality, so why are they hiding it? Just because they don't want to show it, doesn't mean it hasn't been recognized.
