Something akin to panic is communicated onto my sterile computer screen‚ then my furrowed brow and soon my troubled mind when I sit alone‚ in the dark of my room and explore ideas and possibilities.

This problem is the one that keeps most experts on edge more than any other apocalyptic theory. Currency is limited‚ but the ability to reproduce is not and the issue of “how can I support a home and family on welfare” is what most in need ponder every day. The threat is not uncommon‚ in fact it is the same premise for Jonathan Swift’s 1729 pamphlet A Modest Proposal. My choice

ideas of Enlightenment were A Modest Proposal‚ Tartuffe‚ and Candide. In the three stories we have read‚ each writer uses satire to push their message onto their reader‚ without directly stating what they actually want to stay. In Swift’s satire‚ A Modest Proposal‚ Swift uses irony to talk about the economic inequality by proposing such a ridiculous idea. When Swift says “I grant this food will be somewhat dear‚ and therefore very proper for landlords‚ who‚ as
