The unequal distribution of domestic responsibilities has held women back for generations; it still today continues to hinder women’s progression in the work-place. It seems like everyone thinks mum will stay at home and do the dishes, her little boy will grow up to become a big, strong man but not her daughter, of course, she is far too busy washing her own children’s dishes. But it is not just women who suffer sexism, men do also. For example: Shelia’s Wheels sell cheaper car insurance to women only, and they say it's because statistics show women to be safer drivers.

Eastman hated this process; he thought it to be way too complicated. So he began to use his kitchen as a place to experiment with emulsion, hoping to find an easier process. After many long nights of experiments he came to invent the dry place as well as a machine to coat produce them. The dry plate was able to be stored away until ready for use unlike wet plates. With this new process and technology, Eastman opened up the Eastman Dry Plate Company in Rochester, New York in 1879.
Mrs. Ellen does not abuse her governmental power because she sticks with Dave and trusts him that he will not abuse his governmental power while he is the temporary president of the United States. During the movie they hide Bill Mitchell in the white house basement because they feel like it is the best decision if the United States people do not know how major his stroke is. This is misusing their governmental power because the government should have told the United States people about his incident.

I bet the people without insurance didn’t have to pay back the $30,000 they received. Thinking that this was completely wrong and absurd, my mom appealed it, but of course that fell through the floor. In denial about the entire situation, we prepared to not only pay for a new house, all contents and my college tuition in 2 years, but also pay back FEMA money they gave us because we were storm victims. Sounds crazy right? Even though we were lied to by FEMA, it did not matter because we received the same
