Introduction

For the past three years, I have been blogging mostly on Young Philly Politics. I've reccently decided to start my own site and focus more on national issues from a youth perspective. This blog will cover a range of topics, such as healthcare, education policy, and the long-term impact of the war in Iraq. I am particularly interested in examining how conservative policies are endangering the future of our country.

In a few weeks, this entire site will be moved to BenWaxman.com. In addition to the blog, the site will have an archive of everything I've ever had published. I've been meaning to create something like this for a long time, but senior year is prompting me to get a little more organized.

I've set up http://benwaxman.blogspot.com as a sort of trial website. I'm going to be regularly posting the sort of content that will eventually appear on BenWaxman.com. Please offer suggestions and/or criticism about style, format, subjected matter or anything else.

Thanks so much!
