Recognize your Rights to Assure Public Safety and LGBT Discrimination

According to Caleb Laieski, Human being is born free and no sooner they come out of their mothers’ wombs, then there is 30 basic right, which gives them the privilege to live a life in their own and free manner. These laws are implemented by the worldwide organization which seeks that every individual that has taken birth could live life without any kind of torture, slavery, pressure and any other sexual abuse. That could lead once a life to disaster or evening sometimes resulting as worse as death.

As all are a creation of God, no matter rich or poor, of high society or a garbage picker, of any caste or creed, it doesn’t mean that you could impose your power of status and could force your expectation could be carried out only. Even further aspects of public safety to human from the human brutal deed that could eventually lead to human life havoc, are being considered day to day. Such that each and every kind of discrimination could be avoided that are practiced by human beings itself in the name of various aspects such as caste, religion, sex, marital status and on people with physical deformities. 

           

Especially, Caleb Laieski emphasizes in the case of LGBT where you could find a various negative, thoughts, comments, and hatred apart, they are also a human being and the creation of God and had equal rights. And, also you can find the specific role of them in our society as well as different holy books of various religions. More often according to the different society and land boundaries, the perception and the mentality changes each time, which it’s related to LGBT right and even the jurisdiction also varies from time to time and from places to places. 

Any kind of discrimination that is carried out in a society or nation that is related to gender identity, which everyone has their own either male or female that could affect everyone. In many countries, the government itself tries to refuse and ignore the cases that are related to violence on LGBT people and many a time such abuses are carried out by state authorizes no matter any sanction of any legal notice. Under article 16 (UDHR) universal declaration of human rights of each and every human being either male or female have the right to marry and find, a family of their own choice. Thus, if you are surrounded by any such kind of hideous deed or any kind of discrimination on minors or LGBT people, then you can raise your voice to help of Caleb Laieski to get public safety and right authorities look after these matters seriously.       

Surprise Teen is an Advocate for Gay Rights

Fifteen-year-old Caleb Laieski's summer days go something like this: Wake up. Sit in front of a Dell laptop and read dozens of e-mails. Give a virtual pep talk and a phone contact to a girl from Australia considering suicide. Provide a hotline number to a Valley teen unsure how to tell his parents he's gay.

Add to a list of politicians across the country who will soon receive information about discrimination against gays and lesbians. And, oh yeah, return yet another call from the media.

Laieski, of Surprise, isn't spending his summer hanging at the pool. The high-school student is a gay activist, working between classes and school breaks.

He co-founded a national anti-discrimination organization in 2008, when he was a middle-school student. It's now based out of his bedroom.

He has sent hundreds of e-mails full of statistics to legislators, local politicians and others, hoping to inspire policy changes favorable to the gay community. And he has dealt with what he dubbed harassment at Willow Canyon High School in Surprise.

"Everything I have gone through has inspired my activism," Laieski said.

Eager to raise awareness, he recently shared his experiences with reporters from MSNBC and other outlets interested in the American Civil Liberties Union of Arizona's offer to represent him. Dysart officials should have tried to stop anti-gay slurs and abuse, Laieski said.

Dysart Unified School District officials said they can't comment on specific students but have policies to prevent harassment.

Dan Pochoda, legal director at the Arizona ACLU office, said he and Laieski hope to meet with the district to promote updates to school bullying policies and additional training for staff.

Laieski isn't waiting. He has been on the move since 2008. That year, he and a friend founded Gays and Lesbians United Against Discrimination in reaction to votes barring gay marriage in Arizona, California, and Florida.

Caleb Laieski, the group's executive director, now leads about 20 volunteers who hope to urge lawmakers to overturn policies and laws they believe discriminate against gays and lesbians. They also hope to build a homeless shelter.

Laieski said he will pursue non-profit status in coming weeks.

Chicago-based volunteer Casey Cameron, 35, said he decided to help because he found Laieski's goals refreshing.

"With his organization, I feel like the approach is, 'We've waited long enough. I want something done now,' “Cameron said.

Former Equality Arizona co-chair Mike Remedi, 37, exchanged several e-mails with Laieski before someone mentioned his age.

The two would later meet at a Human Rights Campaign fundraising dinner.

"What surprised me was how well versed he was, in issues around the country even," Remedi said. "That's why I wouldn't have assumed his age. He had his facts. He knew the stats. He knew them better than most people do."

Laieski's father, Michael, drove his son to the dinner and stayed. He was proud.

"There are so many profound things that have happened that it constantly impresses me," Michael Laieski said.

Caleb Laieski acknowledges that he's not like most 15-year-olds but said he enjoys "taking a stand."

"Age is really just a number," he said. "And this is, like, my fun."

Caleb Laieski on Arizona's Safe Schools Act

Caleb Laieski lived in Arizona at the time and at the age of 16, speaks on Arizona's Safe Schools Act. 

Human Rights in US

Among the industrial nations, the United States is unique in many ways. The capitalist economics of the United States that promotes free trade, private ownership, laissez-faire, consumerism, individualism and claims for welfare is the source of paradoxes. It is long that commentators are criticizing the condition of the health care. The last of them is the American documentary director, Michael Moore with his fabulous "Sicko". In it, he analyzes like a physician the ill health care of his country.

According to Caleb Laieski pharmaceutical products are a large part of a nation's health care. Health Care, respectively, is a major component in promoting the justice, as a Human Rights credo in a society. One of the realms in which the US should manage to make reformation, thus, is the health care provisions and policies.

Health Care in the US 

The present feather on the US cap regarding health care are the two programs of Medicare and Medicaid which are in their own turns under criticism.

The public health care debates began somewhere around the beginning of the 20th century. During the century of efforts that would ultimately determine the fate of the condition, all American presidents were assumed to be advocates of national health care. But, as the present conditions reveal, each time there was an obstacle in the way. FDR, for example, left it high and dry lest the Social Security plan be blocked and doomed. The advent of the cold war decrepitated it as the "socialized medicine". However, the 40s and 50s were the summits of the movement of the public health care as a more serious program. A system then, unique among industrial nations, America, in the 1950s had a health care system that was tied to employment. Of course, there were inefficiencies in such a system to that suffering low-income, women, and the agrarians and workers in the remote areas.

Kennedy and Johnson, also, were advocates of the program but they were limited by the votes of the republican congress. Finally, when the congress turned to democrats, the Medicare and Medicaid programs were passed. And most disastrous was the Watergate which abandoned the promised national health care by President Nixon for another run. Then, "instead of producing medical care and related services itself, the government chose- as it usually did in America- to rely on the market. ... Government production of medical care diminished as government funding increased and health care was outsourced to private providers.

"From 1972 to 1994, the population improved from 18 to 35 million. In the same years, the costs of the program soared from $8 billion to &144 billion... and by 1980s, Medicaid often was the largest program in state budgets, and by the 1990s it cost governors six times as much as AFDC. From this point, price cutting began. Underneath President Reagan, the Prospective payment system decreased the radius of the umbrella. "As in the familiar master narrative of policy reform, policy makers judged their success by the lower numbers and paid little attention to the consequences for patients or clients."(ibid: 264) this led to the 20 percent decrease of Medicare during the 80s. At this very historical point, the business interests began exploiting the profitable healthcare as a new industry. Katz says that in the 80s, the number of investors in health services was one-fourth of the totals.

According to Caleb Laieski the New Deal of President Clinton, The President Health Security Plan, was a final attempt to rescue the health care, but it failed. He observed that almost 37 employees worked without the usual employer's coverage because they worked for small employers who didn't carry insurance. Those with insurance worried about their situation in the case of losing their jobs. The policy of the Clinton committee on the reform was not to follow the excellent model of other industrialized nations, but to create a distinguished one for the sake of uniqueness. This is known as the managing competition which is considered as the reason for the defeat of the reform.

Intellectual Property

IP, Intellectual Property, is a kind of patent regulated as the legal protection of the technological products for the companies or individuals that are the investors and inventors of it.

The issue that is the concern of this paper is the influence of such laws, and specifically, this law on the welfare consumers, people, in the United States. Data released in 2004 by the Census Bureau show that "the number of uninsured Americans erected at 45.8 million in 2004, the percentage of people without health insurance has been 15.7 percent in 2004.

The current stated United States policy on intellectual property, whose main focus is on preserving its unparalleled strength in economic, political and military affairs, therefore raises particular concerns. That is "the United States policy, by focusing exclusively on the rights of its export industries, may lead to very restrictive interpretations of the flexibilities contained in the international agreements, to the detriment of public health needs. On the other hand, the domestic implications of the acts and the policy should not be ignored.
