Not everyone wants that much help! Teachers, quit making me take notes all the time! There are certain teachers that will grade you on your notes, calling it a participation grade.

Gambling There is a reason why more and more casinos are being built across the nation. They are a booming industry at the expense of American citizens. The bright, flashing lights are meant to draw innocent people in, like a bug to a lamp. When some people see those lights they cannot control themselves because the thought of winning money is too enticing. Many people go into casinos with a game plan thinking once they double their money or once they win anything at all, they will get up and walk out the doors.
Fahrenheit 451 is a novel about a materialistic society that has forgotten social interaction with each other. Bradbury examines the personal response of an individual who is in conflict with the majority in his society and whose occupation is abhorrent to him. Fahrenheit 451 centers upon the personal crisis of Montag, a young fireman whose job consists of burning books. He finds his life increasingly meaningless and eventually comes to reject the too-simple, clichéd values of his environment. He experiences loneliness in a society where people are constantly entertained without time given to reflection and personal development, activities often associated with the reading process.
Everyone on the ranch is lonely; George says ranch guys ‘are the loneliest in the world.’ Crooks says ‘A guy goes nuts if he ain’t got nobody. Don’t make no difference who the guy is, long as he’s with you.’ This implies that everyone in the ranch is lonely since all the bunk house men are single so they have no one to comfort them. They have no family to go to or to speak to, they have nothing to look forward to except work for the rest of their lives. George even plays solitaire which is a one player game which implies that even though he has Lennie he still feels alone since Lennie is so immature that he cannot speak to him about the real problems he has. He could feel like he’s in unequal marriage, where George has all the responsibilities.
They all do a lonely repetitive job everyday on the farm where they do not really have anyone they can really talk to, one of the ideas we get from the books is that if you are lonely you become mean and this seems to have happened to a lot of the characters in the book. The Town they live in is called ‘Soledad’ which means ‘loneliness’ this tell us that all the people living in it will probably be lonely and this turns out to be true. A lot of the characters are always by themselves and this is truer for some characters other others. Whenever George plays cards he always lays a hand for solitaire, which is a game played by one person and never for anything. This gives over to us that he has no one else to really play with, as Lennie is probably not clever enough to be able to play with him so he always has to play a game, which is for one.
In the book Behind the Beautiful Forevers, Katherine Boo puts readers into the shoes of slum dwellers in the Indian city of Mumbai. This is a place where the people have to hustle and bend the rules in order to survive and provide for their families. Hardly anyone who lives in Annawadi has a real job. In order to make a living, the people rely on and even fight over the garbage they find which is thrown out by the nearby airport hotels. The hospitals are unclean with no medicine because doctors sell it on the black market, police are only there to help whoever gives them most money, and schooling is hardly even considered due to the lack of funding.
The poverty in Annawadi is inescapable and overly consuming. It influences every single part of the slum’s peoples’ lives and their stories. There is no running water, indoor plumbing, relief services, or cleaning services. Resources are scarce and hope is all that its people have to hold onto. Boo writes, “What you don't want is always going to be with you.
In Harry J. Carman and Harold C. Syrett’s, A History of the American People, they state that, “As more investors put their money into securities (stocks) in hope of making a quick profit on a speculative rise in stocks, the characters of the New York Stock Exchange was fundamentally altered” (Doc F). Because of the rise in stocks during this period were so high, many people did not have any reasons to believe that it would drop or change anytime soon. So rather than seeing this as a business and investment opportunity to make money, they saw it as an opportunity to gamble to make quick money. In addition, they also explain that, “Liberal margin requirements permitted the investor to enter the market in a shoestring. By buying on margin, the investor had to pay a fraction of the quoted price of any particular security.
The games generally has a huge amount of money as a jackpot. However, the likelihood of wining is very small because generally the wining machine is hided in the places where people play less or generally where they don´t play at all.
