John Locke's Proposal For Prosperity

To Arendt, the poor are not even capable of being free because they are consumed by want. Marx does not see

In neoliberalism, unemployment will target any person with less working ability which might cause hatred. Also, it caused a widening inequality of both wealth and income in Latin America. Skilled workers have an opportunity to get higher wages; on the other hand, low-skilled workers can only get low wages. Neoliberalism causes a limit to wage

In chapter 10 Howard Zinn talks about the civil war, the disadvantages and advantages between the poor and rich. The poor have always been the bait in America, due to the lack of money and power. When war is in progress, most of the time the poor are demanded to go to war because the wealthy groups have the money and power to escape from death. “ To give people a choice between two different parties and allow them, in a period of rebellion, to choose the slightly more democratic one was an ingenious mode of control. Like so much in the American system, it was not devilishly contrived by some master plotters; it developed naturally out of the needs of the situation”( Zinn, 200).

Henry George’s was a critic of big business and since there we social problems he blames it on a few monopolists to grow wealthy as a result of rising land values. He proposed a single tax on land to replace taxes which would be returned to in addition to the people. If they propose this tax it would destroy monopolies, distribute wealth, and it would eliminate poverty. Robber barons are the reason why people were being driven into poverty (DOC 1). The result of this was how the Northern capitalists led the South away from agriculture and economic dependence, and how they used their wealth to further grow the American industry.

Zinn believes the collective efforts of individuals alone, without a huge income motivating them would be efficient enough and would work well. He argues that there is no real proof that incentives are even necessary, therefore not needed. Zinn would agree with the philosopher and socialist St.Thomas Aquinas in the sense that Aquinas believes man can unselfishly work towards a goal together because everyone is willing to fulfill their own specific duties. This parallels with Zinn’s belief that people do not need huge incomes to incentivise them. On the other hand, Zinn would disagree with Adam Smith in his belief that man “seeks self interest in competition”.

In the Great American classic, The Great Gatsby, many critics have aligned their opinions with the fact that Gatsby was corrupted by the thought of money. Gatsby was portrayed as the American Dream, going from having nothing to being extremely wealthy, but along the line he was caught up in illegal affairs and resulting in his own corruption. In the beginning Gatsby had nothing just a plan for achieving his American Dream. After reading the Great Gatsby I had come to the conclusion that Gatsby had been corrupted by the society around him and the people he most associated with. Most modern day critics, say that Gatsby’s lust for money corrupted his love for Daisy.

I think in order for them to avoid that they should have made a small percentage that everyone paid no matter what. Basically Parsons says “if one person fails, then we all fail” and I like how he puts that and doesn’t single out one

They felt that the Constitution only favored the wealthy men and their power. The anti federalists were afraid of a strong central government when it came to the government taking over their property and using them. For example, the 3rd amendment states that homeowners should not be obligated to open their homes to soldiers and the soldiers should not be allowed to take over one 's home. This proves that they had to address this issue for something to be done to stop this, they must have been feeling like their lives were

“... because the fruit thereof is uncertain, and consequently no culture of the Earth” Hobbes says. He is stating how because the food isn’t good and neither are the people we will have no reason to work together and then no one will want to participate in a culture with others that aren’t civil. “... no knowledge of the face of the earth; no account of time; no arts; no letters; no society” Since, people are at busy fighting over who gets what we will have no time to produce goods. Without goods people will have no need for each other causing us to not a community or society. It also states that “[n]o man has natural authority over his fellow man.”

Also they don’t want to hear what others have faced with racial inequality. As a society we let a lot of discrimination happen and some go without being said or recognized. We become very selfish and money. power hungry that has slowly let our society fall. Society should learn and recognize what racial group we are giving all the power and how they are using that power.

He is not a fascist, but thats one viewpoint that is similar. He thinks it is important to protect capitalism and keep the free market open. By raising taxes, he believe businesses will not be able to grow and hire more people. With the mosque issue, Eldon believes that the mosque should not be built downtown. He thinks a mosque would not fit in because Harperville is a very traditional Southern town with a lot of history.

Each of one 's life travels with the purposes. Otherwise, it is purposeless, and nothing. Each of one 's life travels with the purposes. Otherwise, it is purposeless, and nothing.

(wealth inequality in America). I think that money distribution system is wrong for those reasons, and one day if those things don’t change, one person will have all the money and everyone else will have nothing, but that would make America crumble. America needs to redistribute their money, but gradually. If everyone gets re-distributed their money all equally that would be called socialism. But America encourages the American dream, which makes you want to work for more money.

Illegal aliens who come to America all want one thing: a higher standard of living and liberty. But the real question is; who pays the price of allowing illegal aliens to bathe in the freedom that is America? Americans do not mind sharing the American dream with different nationalities but the swarm of people has put a strain on the working class. The real problem is whether or not to deport illegal aliens who are fleeing their countries due to poverty or legalize them and risk a lower standard of living for Americans. Illegal immigrants pose a far greater negative impact on the American economy and punish taxpayers.

Yet, the government owes money to several countries. Jefferson specifically stated he envisioned a country where we would not depend on foreigners, here we are in debt, at war, taxing without
