Since Hawaiian is being more urban so it will raise the price of things like for instance electricity. Since the cost of electricity prices go up people with low paying jobs or people who don't have the money to pay for it will soon become homeless. They impact our topic because when new ideas are spread they have good and bad outcomes. In this case, maybe someone decided that the house was worth more causing them to up the rent which the family can't afford causing them to leave. Currently, thereʻs been influence from locals to transfer homelessness (natives, etc.) off the street. This is a problem in Hawaii because it’s expensive to live here and the price is only going up thanks to trump.

My first philosopher Iʻve chosen that closely impacts my Kahiau Project is Adam smith. He contributed economic ideas which relates towards money and poverty today. I chose this philosopher because he relates towards my project.
The second philosopher Iʻve chosen that closely impacts my Kahiau Project is Georges- Louis Leclerc. He contributed a quote, “Hold on; Hold fast; Hold out. Patience is genius. This relates towards my project because when youʻre in poverty you shouldnʻt be freaking out and stuff, just stay patient with what you have at the moment. Iʻve chosen this philosopher because he relates to my Kahiau Project. The first philosopher that relates to my leadership values is Jean-Jacques Rousseau. He expressed his own thoughts through music and literature which is pretty cool. He believed humanity was good in the face of nature but corrupted by societyʻs artificiality. He also explained in one his novels that art and sciences are a result of pride. I can really relate to the opinions of this philosopher. The second philosopher that relates to my leadership values is Immanuel Kant. He had a deep belief in only telling the truth. He also believes that moralities of actions donʻt depend on consequences but rather they fulfill their duty. I can really relate to what this dude says. I think besides from grades just becoming a smarter person is going to motivate me in this class. All my friends are like Straight A students and my grades are kind of trash. So Putting more effort in this class will get my grade up. During the break I was planning on going to my local church and feeding the homeless during Christmas Day or whenever. The local church I was going to go to was New Hope in Hawaii Kai. What actually happened was me being sick for a whole week of break, then just not being able to do it during Christmas because I was still sick. For the rest of the break, I went fishing, played basketball, ran, and went to the beach with my friends & family. Overall, I think I messed up big time because I don’t know if I have enough time to do this service project. I’m hoping to complete this by next week.
I think my understanding of poverty and UN issues of humanity improving. This is because Iʻm learning more about the people that cannot afford things in their lives and canʻt eat food. |
