    The domestic US airline industry has been intensely competitive since it was deregulated in 1978. In a regulated environment, most of the cost increases were passed along to consumers under a fixed rate-of-return based pricing scheme.

As a leading figure for Britain and the Allies in World War II, he had to let the populace have their small victory, or the "miraculous deliverance" that was Dunkirk while driving home the harsh reality that, although a miracle did occur, that miracle arguable paled next to the overall "colossal military disaster" that was also Dunkirk. Given this historical context, the techniques of persuasion used by Churchill are highlighted. Out of the many techniques used, the ones that stood out to me were the call to action and an appeal to a higher cause. Churchill effectively calls those in the House of Commons to action by appealing…
