Amnesty, we all know the word. According to Dictionary.com, amnesty is an official pardon for people who have been convicted of political offenses. Why does government do such a thing? To excuse themselves of their wrongdoings. In this 2016 Presidential Election, we might see a candidate use amnesty for their own personal benefit. That candidate, as we know, is Hillary Clinton, who sent Classified Emails to those without permission to have them in possession. Executive Orders are another example of something that was twisted by politicians into something that allows a politician to attain more power than they were destined to have. Executive Orders defy the original system of checks and balances, and ensures more faulty laws on the part of the government. The consequence for amnesty and executive orders in our society is that when the president signs in an order, or a politician supports amnesty, they are allocated more power than America wants them to. This allows them to discard the public opinion. If America continues to allow politicians to make laws to give themselves more power, we as a society will end up in a far worse place than the America we want to see in the future.
