Uruguay marijuana legalization: Details unveiled


SUMMARY:
  The Uruguayan authorities have revealed how marijuana will be produced and sold legally in the country. Licensed pharmacies will sell the drug for less than $1 a gram, with consumers allowed 40g a month. Last year, Uruguay became the first country in the world to make it legal to grow, sell and consume marijuana. Uruguay's government hope the bill will help tackle drug cartels, but critics say it will expose more people to drugs. The legalization of Uruguay marijuana will be hot potato as ever.


PERSUASIVE:
  I really interest in this issue. Although I have no interest in doing dope, I am concerned about the result of this issue. Because this decision may be innovative, I hope Uruguayan government get a positive effect under control in the future. Furthermore, the government have to pay close attention not to expose more people to drugs.

Angry Uruguay to appeal ban  


SUMMARY:
  This article include a diversity of opinion about the latest issue of Suarez. FIFA suspended Suarez from all soccer activities for four months and from international soccer for nine games with immediate effect. As a result, many Uruguayan and Liverpool fans were dissatisfied with this decision. On the other hand, the many people also support the punishment. Like this, this issue remains hotly disputed by world soccer fans and celebrities.


PERSUASIVE:
  I think it is time to take disciplinary action for this issue. Suarez already suffered punishments from similar action. Due to his troubles, many soccer fans took offense, and so do I. Although he has great talent for soccer, he has proved that he doesn't have enough talent for sports. He brings a disgrace on many fair players. Therefore Suarez has to abide a punishment and have time for self-restraint and self-reflection.
