This article is about how a bill that was passed by the house which is supposed to make raising money easier for small businesses but it also weakens investor protection. The democrats in the senate tried to help tighten the legislation to help seniors and other investors that would be vulnerable to loose money. The senate wants to make more changes but the republican house is opposing all of their ideas. Obama had called on Congress to send him such job-spurring measures. And GOP leaders packaged some previously approved House bills into the JOBS Act, which was approved by an overwhelming 390-23 vote.

Employers are asking for people's Facebook passwords now a days. Is this a bad thing or good thing? I personally thing it is because your home life should be separate from your work/professional life. I feel like it's almost a violation of privacy and asking too much from an employee. A background check should be enough to get hired, there shouldn't be a need to look at an employees Facebook, unless they are committing a crime or doing/ saying something against their place of work.
