He was thrown into jail for one night and later writes about how the government could be better. I agree that Thoreau’s ideas about how a government should be more better is a excellent postulation and I would further add the government today in the twenty first century still hasn’t even changed at all.…

Richard Rodriguez takes the readers through one of his annual Christmases and brings to light, through his thoughts, the disconnect that exists between himself, his siblings, and his parents.

Niman starts out with a short acknowledgement that the meat industry has a hand in the increasingly noticeable global climate change. She then quickly changes gears, stating that the studies that show the meat industry is a major player in global warming only take the prevailing methods of producing meat into account and spews facts that show the flip side of the food industry.…
