The Advantages of Smoking

It is commonly people speaking that smoking is very dangerous. They even believe that it can kill not only the smokers but also people around them. Many kinds of picture in that cigarette pack explain those dangerous. However, I strongly believe that smoking brings advantages because of two significant reasons.

First, every pack of cigarette has been given tax label by the factory. It means that the tax is for the country's income. The more people buy cigarette, the more income for the country. Moreover, in Indonesia, most societies are great cigarette consumers. In 2017, the cigarette tax contributed more than 150.81 trillion for the APBN. Thus, cigarette is the crucial element in economic side.

Second, there are many unemployments in Indonesia. For instance nobody buys the cigarette, there will be many cigarette factories collaps because their products are not sold and people who work in that factories will lose their work. If so, the number of the unemployments will be significantly increased.

To sum up, although people belive that smoking has disadvantages, they should consider that it saves many people and the country economy.

My Favorite Songs From Musicals

Lately, I like watch musical dramas or animated videos from musical dramas. There are my favorite songs from the musicals: 1. Candy Store (Heathers) In this song, Heather Chandler lays down the law and offers her protegée Veronica a choice: be cruel and powerful like the Heathers or go back to your loser friends and be nobody. The song starts when Veronica realizes Chandler has tricked her into forging a cruel love letter to Martha , posing as Martha’s lifelong crush, Ram . I like how this song tells the mean girls point of view. My favorite part is when Heather Duke sing and try to catch the highnotes then being yelled by Heather Chandler, “Shut up, Heather!”, that’s really funny. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-jviZGERpqg&index=2&list=RDYuCux-Dtk-0 1. Meant To Be Yours (Heathers) JD breaks into Veronica’s room, wielding a gun, as she bar...

The Influence of Foreign Culture

The Influence of Foreign Culture Foreign Culture is a culture that comes from outside the area that is received and lived by a community living in its own area [1] . Globalization is one of the factors causing the entry of foreign culture into Indonesia. Although foreign culture has a pleasant impact, there are likewise disreputable impacts carried by abroad culture. The disreputable abroad cultural influences that enter Indonesia cause cultural shock, individualistic, and consumptive behavior. To begin with, the impact of abroad societies' culture that entered Indonesia caused cultural-shock. Cultural shocks are changes in social values along with the advancement of the knowledge and time [2] . This generally happens in individuals who are experiencing a sudden move or exchanged to another environment. The abroad culture that entered Indonesia caused a change in social qualities in Indonesia. Furthermore, it makes Indonesian culture be feeble in light of the fact tha...

The Negative Impacts of Dating Adolescence is a wonderful time. Many things happened during the transition period of adolescents from childhood to adulthood . One of the interesting and happening things in the world of adolescence is the dating trend that is favored by some teenagers. Courtship is a relationship between two people of the opposite sex and they have an emotional attachment, where the relationship is based on the feelings in each other's hearts(Kyns, 1989). However, there are negative impacts of courtship. The first impact is physical abuse. The Anti-Violence Coalition in Alabama said that one in three children experienced physical violence during early dating. The forms are like pushing, hitting, strangling, and killing. The crime was very closed because the victim or perpetrator did not acknowledge the problem during the relati...
