...American Scavengers Antonio Felix English 102 Section #27058 May 11, 2015 “This empire, unlike any other in the history of the world, has been built primarily through economic manipulation, through cheating, through fraud, through seducing people into our way of life, through the economic hit men. I was very much a part of that” John Perkins. In the past decade the government has been pushing for a welfare reform time and time again. This reform is disliked by many politician, complaining that federal law is overly prescriptive and are willing to take less federal money in return for more flexibility. The public thinks that the current reform is anti-work and anti-family and is keeping the public under poverty line. However welfare programs are set in place by the government in order to ensure a certain quality and standard of living for everyone in the country. These programs are mainly focused on children, making sure that their parents are able to feed and clothe them properly. The truth is that in today’s society The Welfare system creates more problems than it solves, creating a sense of welfare dependency, a feature of advanced industrial societies with developed welfare states, whose citizens enjoy specific “social” rights (e.g., to social security, health care, social support, and education). Bill Clinton said: “I used to get up in the morning and watch my mother get ready to go to work. And we had a lot of trouble in my home when I was a kid, and she still...

Heena poured four and one-sixth cups of flour into a bowl. We are solving to find out how much flour should Heena take out of the bowl? The fractions in this real world problem are used to measure how much flour is needed and used for Heena to bake her cake. The information we have is that the required flour amount is 2 ½ cups and the amount of flour used is 4 1/6 cups. To solve the problem on how much flour should Heena take out the bowl I need to subtract the amount of flour required from the amount of flour used, so 4 1/6 – 2 ½ . Before the problem can be solved the denominators have to be equal. The least common denominator is 6. To get 6 as a denominator for 2 ½ you will need to multiply both the denominator and numerator by 3, which gives you 2 3/6. Since 1/6 is less than ½ I need to change the numerator. To do that I will take 1 from the whole number and add it to the numerator giving me the new fraction 3 7/6 (4-1=3) and since 1 whole is 6, (6+1=7). Now the problem is set up properly to be solved. 3 7/6 – 2 3/6 = 1 4/6...

...1. How were the colleges Smith, Bryn Mawr, Radcliffe, Vassar, and others collectively known? These prestigious schools are 5 of the best women’s schools in the nation. Women who are serious about their education, no matter if you’re an athlete, writer, or scientist. The main attractions for these schools are their rigorous programs, excellent mentorship properties, and most importantly, a chance to work one-on-one with the faculty. I feel that the quality of information I gathered was more than enough to answer this question correctly. Before I performed this research, I was unaware of these colleges and now find it fascinating that these schools offer such a great education, not only to Americans, but to women from other Nations. The source I used to gather this information from was from an internet based search, www.thesisterscolleges.org. 2. What is the largest employer in Waco, Texas?

...Much of this need to sell these movies so desperately to audiences has also caused a major influx of movie oversaturation throughout each year. Though studios have been releasing less movies per year as opposed to decades past, more and more studios are collectively releasing fleets of high budgeted blockbusters, all crowdly trying to win audience attention. Sadly, this cry for attention is becoming far more difficult for studios as we enter a new age of technology. Video streaming services, video on demand services and most prominently the internet have made studios desperate for attention. This has resulted in audiences “drifting away from old entertainment consumption patterns, seduced by video streaming on a variety of platforms and particularly the explosion of content on smartphones.”(Kuittinen 1) Because of this significant decline in attention, movie studios have done what they can to monitor what they believe audiences would like to see in big budget movies in order to sustain interest. This is a major reason why film fads occur, where a specific genre of film suddenly becomes popular, and as a result movie studios attempt to replicate success through repetition. One of the major film genres that has spiked to the top in popularity in recent years is the superhero genre. A large amount of the highest grossing films of all time have been superhero films released within the past few years, with Marvel’s The Avengers being the third highest grossing film of all time during...
