The Ghana is an African country located on the western side of Africa. The neighbor countries are Burkina Faso, Togo, the Atlantic Ocean, and Cote d’Ivoire. It has a population of nearly 18,100, 703 and a population density may be of 197 people per square mile. The Ghana’s area is 92,098 square miles and the official language is English. The capital city is Accra has around 1, 673,000 residents. There are the physical statistics, which is to be considered.
The great strengths of the country are its natural resources. And also, they are very rich. The big export is Cocoa, which totally accounts for 15% of the world's supply. And also the gold production, now a days, it's exported as more as one million fine ounces. Ghana is also supplying bauxite, diamonds, coffee, rice, cassava, timber and rubber. After 1983, the economy has steadily grown. By the economic recovery policies intact, the economy has raised 5% a year since 1983. Tourism development also grows within Ghana. The Tourist rates are also increasing. With these cash crops, costly goods, and economic restructuring, one would wonder why they need assistance at all.

Affirmative Action
Affirmative Action: Mend it or End it
The act of hiring the minority groups in order to "balance out" the employment pool and therefore end discrimination in the workplace is called affirmative action. And too in many businesses and college campuses today use affirmative action to hire or accept new recruits based on affirmative action laws. This law causes people from the majority to lose to women and minority races, regardless of qualifications. This form of the reverse discrimination that makes distinctions based on race or gender is not beneficial to the American society whether it is constituted through a government law, program, or policy.
The Affirmative action has a contradiction with the policies it supports. Thus means that "the solution to the problem of racism and discrimination that affirmative action employs is more discrimination" Instead of curing racism in USA, the affirmative action promotes reverse discrimination by allowing minorities to feel as if they need standards to be lowered for them in order for opportunities to become available to them. The law is undervalued with the notion that "women are inherently weaker and less intelligent than white males because standards are lowered.

Science
Science refers to any system of knowledge, which is attained by verifiable means. In a more constrained sense, science refers as a system of acquiring knowledge based on empiricism, experimentation, and methodological naturalism, as well as to the organized body of knowledge humans have gained by such research.
Scientists who maintain that scientific investigation must stick on to the scientific method, a process for evaluating empirical knowledge that explains observable events in nature as results of natural causes, rejecting supernatural notions.
Fields of science are commonly classified into two major lines:
Natural sciences: The study of the natural phenomena is known as natural sciences.
Social sciences: It is the systematic study of human behavior and societies.
Compared to other field of science Mathematics has both similarities and differences. Mathematics is similar to other sciences, since it is a rigorous, structured study of topics such as quantity, structure, space, and change. However mathematics is different in its method of arriving at results. As a whole mathematics is vital to the sciences and indeed, the major advancements in mathematics have often led to major advances in other sciences. Certain aspects of mathematics are very much essential for the formation of hypotheses, theories, and laws, both in describing and discovering how things work (natural sciences) and how people think and act (social sciences).
