Border Patrol

I think that isn't a lifestyle that should be lived and I wouldn't want to do that so I don't think most Americans would want to do that. Many people don't want to do those jobs but yet they claim to be mad about these Mexicans that take jobs but no one else would do these jobs. These people are actually helping our economy by keeping prices of goods down and they spend this money in the United States so they are benefiting these country in multiple ways. These people make huge sacrifices just to make enough money to keep their family fed and keep a roof over their heads. These people have no luxuries all they do is work to pretty much stay alive. These people benefit our country and everyone is mad at them for working for less wages but no one else would work for the wages they get. Mr.Reints thinks he's a beast but one day we will put a sneak on him and he will never know and we will drop him, pop him, and mop him. We will never accept defeat to Mr.Reints because he doesn't have what it takes to defeat us then every time we see him we will laugh.

Animal Farm

The pigs are the bourgeoisies' and all the other animals are the proletariats' because the pigs are giving the orders and not working. The pigs are taking control and giving the other animals excuses and saying that they are the "brains" so it is making the other animals think that they are working in all reality they are just eating the food that the other animals process. In the beginning the bourgeoisies' were the farmers and the workers because they were controlling the animals and using them to farm the land and using them for their meat. The animals got tired of the farmers controlling them so they retaliated and then the pigs started controlling them. The pigs not only took control and didn't do anything but they started changing the rules as they went and soon they were even walking on two legs, reading human magazines, and even talking on the telephone. The animals had a commandment that said all animals are treated equal and the pigs added but some are treated better. The pigs did nothing but benefitted from doing nothing, they wanted to change but then greed got the best of them.


The conflict theory had to with pretty much conflict like disagreements that could eventually lead to war. The first reason why they wanted to get out of the control of the farmer was because of being controlled and after that they pretty much went to war with the farmer protecting their rights as animals but that all ended when the pigs became the bourgeoisie.


The functionalist theory pretty much is the ability to function and that is doing so without conflict but right away the pigs were functioning well then they decided they could get more power and more power so they kept taking all the power they could get. They took the milk for themselves then the apples and even the farmers house with they said no one should ever use. The pigs were so scared of getting over thrown they even got dogs to protect them.


The animals did not reach a healthy balance because a lot of animals were doing most of the work while the pigs sat around and ate food and told the animals what to do. Boxer did most of the work and got the same amount of food as everyone else while he did 5x the work and was 3x as big as everyone I think boxer deserved more food and more time off. I think old major performed well and the pigs should of learned from that but as soon as they got the taste of power they ran with in or sat with it one or the other.

Barcelona Fights

I think that it is a permanent fix for these people for most of them anyways but some of them will still get in trouble. I feel that the owner was not only teaching them boxing but he was teaching them to be respectful people and good people. If it doesn't work out for them they will probably still learn something from it and possibly want to change but you cannot change some people. Some of the kids will most likely go back to the streets because its too hard or just not for them. I think that when they get older they will carry on the legacy not only to their children but to family and friends or troubled kids that they may know of. The kids that didn't finish out with it may regret this when they get older and wish they would have gone through the class. I definitely think that the lessons learned are teaching them to do good things and be respectful toward your community and country and be a good person for your family and for yourself. So even if this helps one person it is worth it because if one person changes that may change others and those people change other people and the other people change more people and it just keeps going so yes it think it was worth it.

Poverty

By looking at the graphs it showed that kids did better when they received lunch. I could just imagine why kid do better when they aren't hungry because they are not worrying about where there next meal is going to come from. The world is a hard place for a lot of unfortunate people, and I wish that people that are very unfortunate just didn't have kids because it puts their kids through such a hard life. People that hadn't grown up poor and they don't understand how hard it is to not eat for days on end. Some countries don't even have enough money to have programs for these kids and families but I don't think that the kids should be punished for being born into a poor family/society it just proves that life is not fair.

I believe that you can do whatever you want but it takes money or a lot of hard work! I think that people are given different opportunities so I think that it is just what you do with the opportunities that you are given. Her son wants to be an architect or a lawyer, I believe that people can do whatever they want but I will either take a lot of money which he is poor and can get federal funding but he would of had to put a lot of work in to become either a lawyer or an architect. I think a factor that will hold them back is just living in an area where people just aren't successful and if you aren't successful than you aren't looked at differently. Honestly I don't think they will because they weren't set up for success they don't have that person to tell them they can do it! There were so many people in their community that were (failures) or people that didn't complete high school or college that it doesn't make them look that bad. I think that by succeeding you meet successful people and it is all about knowing one person or another because one day you might need a favor and you remember that person you met and give them a call and they could possibly help you with a job, or help you need.

I believe that social class affects the way you are completely! If you are poor and cannot afford good clothes you get teased if you cannot afford to play sports you will probably get teased. But some people do very well in high school and it transfers through
to college and to their job. I think that moving down would be hard for someone that was rich because they are used to having nice things and used to going out but when you don't have a lot of money you have to save money just to get by. People in different classes act way different! If you were someone that was poor and became rich you would most likely be humble about it and act the same because that's the way you grew up but you might not act preppy or classy enough to hang with the rich kids. It would cause a lot of problem with your family and friends because if you were rich your poor friends would probably treat you different because now your rich and they think that would change you. I also think that people that were rich might not accept you because you were once poor. I would end up with the kids that play sports or the working kids either one.
  
My family owns nothing that shows social class because we are poor! I think that people are treated differently because of the things they have such as: a house, a car, and a job you get treated differently because of everything. Adults teach there children to treat everyone as you want to be treated but treat someone horrible because they are rich or poor. I don't really think that your taste in bread affects your social class because there is no price difference between white and wheat bread one is just healthier. I prefer white bread but haven't really given wheat bread a chance.
