Essay about Topics in Elysium (personal)

Do you guys think that citizenship is deserved? Well …. At least I don't think so. I don't know what you guys think? But let's see what I think first.

I don't think citizenship is deserved. Why? It's normal for us to be born in this place and get citizenship, right? We were born here, we are here, and we are part of this country, so I think it's normal to have citizenship. However, it is not that everyone should have. The so-called citizenship is to belong to this country, or long-term residence here, and comply with the laws of this country. If the person does not obey the laws of the country, he is not performing the duties of a citizen, so why can he be a citizen? What qualifies him to be a citizen and use the rights that citizens have?

“citizenship, relationship between an individual and a state to which the individual owes allegiance and in turn is entitled to its protection. Citizenship implies the status of freedom with accompanying responsibilities. Citizens have certain rights, duties, and responsibilities that are Citizens have certain rights, duties, and responsibilities that are denied or only partially extended to aliens and other noncitizens residing in a country. The usual responsibilities of citizenship are allegiance, taxation, and military service. “In this passage, the rights as well as the responsibilities of citizens are mentioned. If a citizen he does not do the responsibilities that he is supposed to do, then he should not be a citizen.

“To obey the constitution and the laws, to keep the secrets of the state, to care for public property, to observe labor discipline, to observe public order, and to respect social morality.” . It is also mentioned here that as a citizen you must obey public order. Then people who don't comply with this should not be called citizens, right?

So what do you think about citizenship? I don't think you deserve it. Then, as a citizen, you should also observe the responsibilities of a citizen.

你们觉得公民的身份是应得的吗？嗯….至少我觉得不是啦。不知道你们怎么想呢？不过先来看看我的想法吧。

我觉得公民的身份不是应得的。为什么呢？虽然说我们出生在这个地方得到公民这个身份很正常吧。我们出生在这里，我们就是这里的人，也是这个国家的一份子，所以拥有公民这个身份我觉得很正常。不过呢，也不是说每个人都该有。所谓的公民是要属于这个国家，或是长期居住在这里，且遵守这个国家的法律。如果这个人不遵守国家的法律，他就不是执行公民的责任，那他为什么可以是公民呢？他有什么资格可以成为公民，使用公民所拥有的权利呢？

“citizenship, relationship between an individual and a state to which the individual owes allegiance and in turn is entitled to its protection. Citizenship implies the status of freedom with accompanying responsibilities. Citizens have certain rights, duties, and responsibilities that are denied or only partially extended to aliens and other noncitizens residing in a country. In general, full political rights, including the right to vote and to hold public office, are predicated upon citizenship. The usual responsibilities of citizenship are allegiance, taxation, and military service.” 在这段话里，提到了公民的权利以及责任。如果一个公民他不做他该做的责任，那他就不该是公民。

“遵守憲法和法律，保守國家祕密，愛護公共財產，遵守勞動紀律，遵守公共秩序，尊重社會公德。”。 这里也提到了作为公民必须要遵守公共秩序。那么不遵守这些的人就不应该被称作公民才对吧。

那么大家对公民这个的想法是什么呢？我觉得不是应得的喔。那么作为公民的大家也要遵守公民的责任喔。
