The first chosen for this topic is a map showing the prisoners held in each country of the world. The country holding the most prisoners is the United States.We account for 24% of the worlds prisoners. China is the second country with 17%. My question is why do we have the most prisoners? As I thought about it, it became clear to me. America is the leading country in immagration. This brings a lot of people from other countries to America. We also have a strict justice system that other countries do not have.Illegal immigration is also a problem for the U.S. We put many people in prison for coming her on an illegal basis. The final reason I saw was the amount of terrorists we hold in our federal facilities. People around the world seem to not like America to much sometimes, so they try to attack us. We catch these terrorists and out them in our jail facilities.
This second map shows the international amount of fast food. As you can see, America is the biggest country on the map. In America, we have 45% of fast food. This is one astonishing number. It goes to show how popular fast food is here. People no longer want a meal they have to cook themselves. We are leaning more and more to convienance in this society. When people try to lose weight or go on diets it almost seems impossible for them. Well I can see why with all of the temptations of fast food in this country. Maybe if America wants to be skinnier, we should cut back on the fast food.
