This article explains how a big portion of todays seafood comes from land-based farms, not the wild. Some of these fish farms are spreading diseases to the natural grown fish in the ocean because their farm fish are escaping. There are now concerns that the United States does not restrict fish importing enough and that we may be eating contaminated fish. At first this topic interested me because I love to fish, but after reading about it I am not interested at all. It may be interesting to a seafood lover, but I don't like seafood, so i'm not passionate about it.

This article explains the pros and cons of illegal immigration and the laws surrounding it. This is probably the topic I will pick because it hits so close to home. It is something that I am very interested in and cross paths with on a daily basis. I may narrow it further by focusing on illegal immigration in the west, or in Arizona specifically. Or maybe i'll narow it to a specific type of illegal immigrants that are effecting the United States.

This article addresses the issues of poverty in the United States. It gives statistics and facts about the never-ending problem that many Americans face. This is a topic that I am also very interested in. This topic also hits very close to home. Poverty is something that I come across everyday when I get onto the freeway and I don't think it's fair. It may be narrowed to poverty in Arizona or poverty caused by a certain thing.
