Mr Birling appears not to know the difference. The Inspector, through what he says tries to show the Birling’s how dangerous, selfish and immoral their social lifestyles are. The Inspector repeatedly undermines Mr Birling although he is of higher status “there are a lot of young women…if there weren’t the factories and warehouses wouldn’t know where to look for cheap labour” This shows that the Inspector knows how business works and how the workers are exploited by Mr Birling, by calling them cheap it suggests they have no value. The Inspector also tries to teach Mr Birling what he is doing is wrong “it’s better to ask for the earth than to take it” this is a lesson to Mr Birling that at least Eva Smith asked for a rise. Mr Birling takes all of his money without asking anyone.
I shall never forget the day that man which has “such great values” that man which constantly refers to the bible can cruelly and horribly punish me publicly. A man who can label an innocent girl as I “a liar”. At that time, I would rather be at Gateshead suffering from my arrogant and spoiled cousin John Reed who liked to torture me for
Many people argue that development is vital in the younger years in the child’s life, and the ability to solve problems and apply ideas help in the long-term. Hyman argues that the lower classes create a self imposed barrier to learning their values. This is because he believes that they have a low value on education, with a ‘play safe’ culture and also a low level of self belief. This would all impact on the child performance at school as they would not have the attitude needed to progress. If at any point they failed, they would see this as a big mistake and give up and have a lack of motivation.
Alienation Holden Caulfield, an interesting man, shows that many people show phoniness and how Holden despises them to a point where he alienates them. This book shows many themes, one of them being revolving around alienation and phoniness. J.D. Salinger’s masterpiece The Catcher in the Rye shows throughout the book that Holden alienates himself from other people because he fears the phoniness of adults. Stradlater, Holden’s roommate, shows phoniness by how he is a “secret slob” also how it annoys Holden to where he gets into a fight with Stradlater over his sloppiness with Jane, which leads Holden to alienating him.
He is a forceful, intolerant bully who sees the case as simple and believes the accused is absolutely guilty. He is quick to lose his temper. His desire to convict and punish the defendant is directly related to his feelings of anger and betrayal
Decreased social mobility is hard on the lower class because without being able to move forward, they are stuck in a cycle of poverty. Quality public education is their best ticket out of the lower class and rebuilding a middle class. The government has to realize that education is such an important tool and the US has been a leader in this since the 1930s, but they didn't stay leaders because their commitment is waning. Higher education is increasingly more necessary, and the costs and competition for spots in these schools are becoming more difficult for people stuck in a sub-par high school or who simply can't afford
Three characters openly state their prejudice against the accused boy because of his background. The 3rd Juror is prejudiced against him because of the antagonism between himself and his own son: “I think we’d be better off if we took these tough kids and slapped ‘em down before they make trouble, you know?” The 10th Juror believes, “These people are born to lie. Now, it’s the way they are and no intelligent man is gonna tell me otherwise. They don’t know what the truth is…They are different. They act different.” The 4th Juror has similar beliefs to the 10th Juror: “This boy, let’s say he’s a product of a filthy neighbourhood and a broken home.
One possible outcome is Fred’s children, whenever he chooses to have them, will be raised in this new found belief and carry on the tradition of hate, or the exact opposite will happen with his offspring. His children could learn the truth about other races and religions and grow to have the same distaste toward their father that Fred has for the “other” group of people. There is always the outcome of Fred hurting or killing the group of people in mention which will get him jail time or worse. Most people who have such a strong belief toward people who are different, tend to not be happy with just showing their hate by using words, by they rather physically show their discord by burning, destroying, demonstrating, beating, and killing what they hate. This in turn poses another set of consequences.
Industrial Revolution Comparison Project The majority of the children that lived during the Industrial Revolution had it bad due to the immense quantity of work that was put upon them. They were thought of the ideal workers because they were easily intimidated and factory owners didn’t have to pay much to children. They suffered and strained through poverty and poor economics sentenced them to a harsh life of work in terrible conditions. They also dealt with abuse as a daily conduct and their working areas were incredibly dangerous and suffered greatly due to the pollution in the air that they breathe. Although the lives of children were unquestionably horrific, they were eventually given rights and laws to assist lighten the load on their
In Theroux’s essay he describes his dislike for the expression “Be and man!” He writes, “it means: be stupid, be unfeeling, obedient, soldierly and stop thinking” (Theroux, pg.317). It can clearly be seen that Todd is doing none of those things. Yes, the pupils were reluctant at first; this can be seen with the student’s laughter in the beginning of the exercise, but can’t that be interpreted as the manly part of the exercise? Todd is pulled up to give a “barbaric’ yawp. Barbaric can be described as brutal, cruel, and even fierce.
