Many EMGs are classed as working class families meaning social deprivation can often happen. The lack of money can often mean that families cannot afford the extra things which may aid their child in education. These are things could be as simple as books or stationary or not owning a computer, therefore having no access to the internet. As working class EMG families are on low incomes, children may not have the same experiences as working class children, missing out on holidays and trips to places such as museums and galleries. Many EMG children also do not have that initial push of how important education is for them.
For different people it is a different idea. We all know that in order to make money, we have to work for it. For some, it can be easier than it is for others. But that mostly depends on what works for who. Someone who has experience with and understands computers could excel at a job in computer programming or maintenance.
When you do a good job at work your boss pays your more. Also students will learn to handle money. When students start to earn money they will know how to use and spend the money. They won’t spend the money on useless things as much as they would when they don’t get paid at school. Students don’t understand how much work it takes to earn money and so they keep on spending money.
With the rising tuition education is going to be very hard to acquire. So it is time for America to change and find a way to lower these ridiculous prices. A College Board report found that about 66% of students who earned a bachelor's degree in 2008 graduated with a substantial amount of debt. This proves that the cost of tuition is rising and in another report, it determined that the average debt of the class of 2008 owed $23,200. This was determined by the Project on student debt, a non profit organization.
It results in persons having to do without and according to Mankiw (2009) each individual in a society cannot attain the highest standard of living to which he or she might aspire. Examples of non-scarce items would be items we take for granted such as dirt, rocks, air, water, grass and trees. 2. How does Adam Smith’s concept of the invisible hand explain why markets move toward equilibrium? Do market participants need to know about the invisible hand for it to function?
In America some kids are forced to study, but most of them just choose to study whenever. Kids in America never really spend time studying because they have more of a social life than what China does. Kids from China don’t have much of a social life, because they spend their life studying or doing activities that their parents have pick for them to do. They only social life they have is going to school and going to activities. Having no social life makes a child have a very low self-esteem and thats why America is one of the highest ranked for having a high self-esteem cause children do have a social life.
Is the America Dream accessible to everyone? Over many years the idea of the American Dream has changed. According to Brandon King in his essay, “The American Dream: Dead, Alive, or on Hold,” he states that, “Living the American Dream meant going from dirt poor to filthy rich… Today most people do not strive for a rags-to-riches transition, and instead prefer a stable, middle-class lifestyle” (King, 573). What he is saying more people do not strive for the fancy car, or the sky rise apartment on 5th Ave anymore, they plan their finances for a stable future. In correlation with this new American dream, I will be discussing if working at Wal-Mart can allow one to reach King’s idea.

In my family that statement is true. I have many family members who did not receive higher education once they graduated high school. Looking back as a child through the years I have witnessed them being taken advantage of due to the lack of education and knowledge of the situation they were in. I promised myself I was not going to be put in that situation of not knowing and being taken advantage of due to the lack of education.
