    It is my belief that the author, Barbara Ehrenreich does put forward an objective plan. Although she is a journalist, she acts as if her true profession is a scientist. She does this by having only one goal set, putting rules and boundaries in place for herself, and recording and analyzing the data she has collected. She decided to completely change her lifestyle and learn how many Americans live their lives. Ehrenreich tries her hardest to enter this experiment with neutral, unbiased ideologies. She mixes her two jobs as a journalist and as a scientist perfectly by using her skills from each one; for example, using first-hand experiences to create a story with a strong, unique purpose and also staying very evidence-based and true. Ehrenreich…

    Barbara Ehrenreich and Lewis Lapham asked themselves how anyone lives on the wages available to the unskilled. (Introduction: Getting Ready) Roughly four million women were about to taken off welfare reform programs to get jobs that paid $6 to $7 an hour; how will they survive? Barbara wanted to see how the 5 division of Dennis Gilbert and Joseph A. Kahl’s (1993) 6 part class structure handled everyday life without government assistance that she left her regular job and sat out on the journey. Although she has a PH.D in biology, she took the role of a sociologist and invested time, energy, and other resources to take the scientific approach of empirical substantiation. The rules that she set for herself were comparable to the real life struggles and decisions that her coworkers, the working class, faced on a daily basis. I believe the nomothetic question asked in the beginning gave way to ideographic explanations to how and why the working class do what they do and the means to do it. I also don’t…

    Akin to the Salem Witch Trials that took place in 1692 and 1693, the assassination of the great Julius Caesar in William Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar appeared to be unreasonable or unjust to many of those that honor him. However, unlike the notorious Salem Witch Trials, it is clear that as light manifests itself upon the mysterious reasons in regards to why Julius Caesar was brutally murdered, it is made obvious that Julius Caesar may not have been quite the adored and honorable man that the Romans so hoped for. There was a side to the Julius Caesar that remained hidden by his graciousness and utterly generous facade. This side of the great and almighty Caesar would prove to convince and compel the very Senators that served below him, that Caesar must meet his rather “timely” demise.…

    The exposition of Julius Caesar, Shakespeare immediately presents the ideals that underpin the differing views of Caesar’s rising power through his two protagonists, Brutus and Cassius. Both characters posses different interpretations on Caesar’s reign on Rome, one being loyal to Rome and a love and respect for Caesar “I love him well” but the other being a spiteful and vitriolic towards a “feeble old tyrant.” This highlights the notion of Cassius’s selfish prejudice towards his own contentment, which is only shown behind closed doors. Brutus on the other hand is victim to Cassius’ vitriol and becomes the pawn as he is manipulated “poor Brutus, with himself at war,” Brutus is troubled emotionally, torn by his patriotism and his respect for Caesar, above all he has an undying love for Rome, “Brutus had rather be a villager than to repute himself a son of Rome.” It is this love for Rome that causes such internal turmoil for Brutus, through Shakespeare’s use of juxtaposition of characters, he is able to highlight to the audience, the lengths that man will go to in order to…

    Julius finds himself confronted by media and press, he does not entertain the media but these people display greed for information, this forces the media to investigate. An investigation is research done on the particular topic, once the information is gathered and educational guess would sum up the research done, it is considered true until proven wrong. I personally feel that media has a way of going on a “wild goose chase”. I experienced one example of this so called “wild goose chase”. I was playing a game which is called “I am player” it is based of a real life professional footballers life, so one would choose your own path so the choices you make will result in the type of footballer you will become. The press confronted me over tension between two players and stated, “If you ‘blab’ I’ll make something up”.…
