In the beginning we learn that Huck sells his six thousand dollar fortune to Judge Thatcher for one dollar to make sure his father will never get it. Pretty smart for a 12 year old boy. Pap threatens to beat Huck senseless if he doesn't get some money. As soon as Huck gives his father a couple of bucks, Pap drinks it all away. “...I’d borrow two or three dollars off the judge for him, to keep from getting a cowhiding” (pg.27) In Paps case, two of the flaws lie directly within him.
Carlson The way Steinbeck portrays the character of Carlson makes me believe that Carlson is a fundamentally selfish individual, who is also insensitive. However it has to be considered that he is a victim of the 1930s depression. There are several reasons for this. The chief reason is that Carlson doesn’t consider anyone’s feelings. An example of this is that he thinks Candy’s dog should be shot because it’s old and smelly.

Because the mark became virtually worthless, people had to shop with wheel barrows full of money. Bartering also became common - exchanging something for something else but not accepting money for it. Bartering had been common in medieval times which show how people resorted to previous looked down upon activities.
Some immigrants get to the U.S.A by paying a large price to human smugglers. Some of them do not realize during the process that they will be held for ransom, raped, abandoned, and in the worst cases, even killed. Many of these illegal immigrants are promised a better life. These promises in many cases are words thrown to humble immigrants like a treat thrown to a dog. Mendez a character in the book broke his promise and made the immigrants wonder in the wrong direction for days, in the book he calls for a group meeting, since he saw that Reymundo Jr. a young child was close to dying and said “Mendez call them together.
To throw them off as he performs his own inquiry? Two months pass and he accomplishes nothing, and when he finally does try to prove Claudius’ guilt, he makes it obvious that he knows of his uncle’s sins. The answer is much simpler. While Hamlet cries that he cannot “weep for [Hecuba]” (2.2.587) and how he cannot act or have the passion like the player, he has actually deceived himself, for he has played the part of the mad man so well, that he does not even recognize his own slip into madness. It immediately needs to be pointed out that Hamlet is a man of a very high education.

On the other hand, there were many differences between Tom and Bernie. One important different is that Tom was a usurer; he gave people money for his own profit. He landed people money in a high interest, so high that they couldn’t pay back the money. But, Bernie did the opposite of Tom; he collected money from the people, and made them believe that they would be paid back in a high interest. He couldn’t pay back the money to the people because he spent the money for
“Good by mr wigin tell them im strong tell them im a man”(234). Jefferson was at the wrong place at the wrong time when two other black men tried to rob a white man’s liquor store. After the death of these men, instead of calling 911 he steals some money out the register and a bottle of wine off shelf. After Jefferson has been sentenced to death by execution, his godmother, Miss Emma, requests that Grant Wiggins teaches him to be a man before he dies instead of allowing him to die as a hog-which is what Jefferson’s defense attorney refers to him as. Although Grant initially doesn’t want to help Jefferson, he gradually changes throughout this book and accomplishes his goal of transforming him into a man.
If a father was accused of something his whole family will suffer with him. They would have nowhere to live and would have to find a way to survive (Kamen, Confiscations in the Economy of the Spanish Inquisition n.d.).
