Crime Under the Sea
By Shikha Sanjiv and Cheryl Kim
A Lesson on The Three Branches of Government!
Can I have a Krabby
Patty, Mr. Krabs?
That will be three squids.
But I don’t have any!
I’m sorry Plankton, but
you can’t have any then.
BANG!!
DIE MR. KRABS!
I’m gonna take over your
restaurant and the Krabby
Patties will be mine!
NO! What have I done! My conscience will not
let me rest, I MUST confess!
HELP! What do I do President
Bush??!?!?!?! I just committed a
TERRIBLE crime! I KILLED someone!
I’m sorry Plankton.
The Executive
Branch is not the right place to
confess to a crime. I have the power to fire officials,
make agreements with foreign nations, and
take emergency actions to save the nation.
OH MY GOSH! My conscience is
killing me! I must confess to a
crime before I go insane! Please
help me!
You have come to the wrong place Plankton. This is the Legislative
Branch, which has economic and defense powers. Congress is mainly in
charge of making all laws necessary and proper to carry out powers
expressed in Article I of the Constitution.
PLEASE OH PLEASE HELP ME! I have
committed an AWFUL crime. Please listen to me and let me free my
conscience.
You have come to the right place, the Judicial Branch, which
consists of a Federal Court and Supreme Court. Every court has the authority to hear only certain
kinds of cases and this is determined by the subject matter
of the case and the parties involved in it. We’ll have a case
for you and you may have to spend some time in prison for
your severe crime.
Wow! Although I have a to serve
time, boy, does it feel great to have
that burden off my chest!
