What Is The Satire In Huckleberry Finn

In Mark Twain’s “The Adventure of Huckleberry Finn” there are many examples of greed satire throughout the book. One major example of greed is when Huck’s pap comes back to see Huck after he learns that Huck has made some money and become decently wealthy. He was given the money from his mother for when she died. Pap came back and demanded that he get the money right then. They wouldn’t let him cash the money in because it was for Huck. His Pap needed the money really bad and he tried to steal his son’s own money. So when he left to go to the store Huck faked his death while his Pap was gone. After Huck left pap went running around looking for his son. He wanted the money that Huck had run off with. “I’ve been in town for two days, and I hain’t
So even after pap went to the judge for help he didn’t want to change. He still stole money from his son and every time he stole money from Huck he would go get drunk and make a big seen and get thrown in jail. Being greedy will never end up well for you. The outside source that I’m comparing this too is That’s My Boy. In the movie That’s My Boy the main character Donny has a baby with his teacher when he is sixteen. He raised the baby when he was eighteen years old. Donny named the baby Hon Solo. Hon Solo didn’t like his father and he didn’t like his life. So he changed his name to Todd. So Donny didn’t pay his taxes for like months and he owed the IRS $40,000 by the end of that week or else he would be going to jail. So he called his son Todd who by now is super rich. Donny shows up to see Todd two days before Todd’s wedding. At first the only reason that Donny went to see Todd was so that he could ask him for $40,000 but after a while Donny starts becoming a father to Todd again. The movie ends with Donny winning $150,000 that he put on this really fat runner running a marathon. So you can compare Donny to Pap because they both were in money troubles and then turned to their kids for money. In my mind that’s really not
