DEATH PENALTY
            The death penalty, in other words, capital punishment is execution of someone, for she or he has done a serious crime, such as murder.It has always been controversial issue of system of justice. Recently, because capital crime rates have increased, people living  in countiries which are not applied death penalty have started talking about whether it is mandatory or not. Many people support the capital punishment, while others are adverse to it. The dissidents think as everyone has right of life, it should be abolished. On the other hand, the  supportives allege that it has deterrent effect on criminals who tend to commit a crime. In my view, that capital punishment decreases crime is certain, so it should be applied in particular cases, such  as murder, ravishment and high treason.
                First of all,  there is no doubt that capital punishment has a deterrent effect criminal rates. Scientific studies have consistently demonstrated that executions deter people from committing crime. Criminals who plan their crimes very carefully, will be deterred by the death sentence because they would consider  that they will be caught. The respected Thorsten Sellin studies of the United States in 1962, 1967 and 1980 concluded that the death penalty was a deterrent.In recent years, in New York, crime rates have decreased dramatically because America is a country which has still applied deaht penalty.  The fac t that there are a lot of evidences to support the view that it deters criminals is good reason why  capital punishment should be applied worldwide.
                 Families of person who is assaulted and murder victims undergo severe trauma and loss, which no one should minimize. Even if executions do not end their agony, it may help  taking away their pain a little bit. Families of murder victims would benefit psychologically. Hugo A. Bedau, professor of philosophy at Tufts University says, "The death penalty guarantees that the person  who is inflicted will commit no more crimes. He or she is prevented  from doing so”.
                Capital punishment can provide a safer environment for us. We have watched many times in a national television show or newspapers about a killer who walks freely in the streets because he or she planned the whole murder plot purposely in a state where capital punishment do not exist. Many killers plan their plots ahead of time, because they know even if they get caught by the policeman they will not be faced with a capital punishment. It is horrific for people living in this environment. They can be under dangerous. When the killers, rapist or treason are captured in the states with capital punishment they can not cause any harm in society. One who is a killer will always be a killer unless they are not punished with execution.
                In conclusion, criminality  is the illegal issue caused harm in society  and no one has a right to hurt the other one. Some people call the death penalty cruel and unusual because they tink that innocent people may be executed due to any misunderstanding. I totally disagree about it. Advocates of capital punishment claim that innocents are only very rarely put to death, and that for the most part those sentenced to die are certainly guilty. The death penalty is a justified, legal, systematic application. It is the best way to prevent misconducts .

                                                        EDUCATION SHOULD BE FREE
While students have to pay for  education in some countries, some other countries such as Denmark, Finland provide  free education to their students. Education can be both online and formal but it is  every citizen’s right. Countries are responsible for providing tuition people.In my view, especially for all successful people should be given free training because doing so will  develop societies and has several advantages.

 First of all, student who is intellegent and can not educate lack of money can go to school, so the gap between rich and poor students decreases as poorer students have more opportunity to gain degree.  College degree helps raise the standard of living by preparing students for jobs with better salaries, which offer personal fulfillment.This means they will live in comfortable conditions in future. As a student,  if you don’t have chance financially, how can you obtain all of these occasion? Because of these reasons we should think deeply about free education.

Students at college are not only  being given technical skills desired by employers, but also are questioning, analyzing, synthesizing and creating new knowledge, and this will be a tremendous resource to the society as a whole. The biggest communal and scientific success are gift from people who have broad vision and can plunge into things which are not seen. That is one of the important reason why everyone should be trained in the world.

The economy also benefits from the increased pool of highly educated labor. An educated workforce attracts employers and foreign investment. Socially, a more educated population should have more choices regarding nutrition, jobs and lifestyle. It is not diffiult to find a good job for well-qualified people.On the other hand university fees only contribute a small proportion of the university budget so it is not good reason to take fee from students.

In conclusion, for all these reasons I believe paying tuition for  education is not good  and solution. This just decreases the educated’s number. In any society, the more there are trained people the more you live better life conditions in every espects. On top of being a fair system about education, it is most likely to improve the quality of people.
