Tragedy or Prevention

This topic speech that kunstler presents feels like the economic state of a recession, is this happening today or are we simply presenting it this way in order to get a responce. Prevention is a method to stoppoing something which it feels like, we are not in a tragic ending but in beginning stages of it. If we simply wait for a recession to happen we are drowned out no matter what but in this way we have a chance against the odds. We can win as citizens in this country, we have to make the right choices and be responsible. I dont know if any of you guys saw it this way but it is very clever to interpret it.
Kunstler is unique in the way he presents this to us, making us listen to what he has to say. Many of his techniques are unorthedox, making it appealing and leaving us with a responce to it. This guy has brough a light bulb in at least my head left me with the words in my mouth for the essay we are currently writing in our english class.
best of wishes james.

Enviornment

Even though people come out of horrible situations, there is a positve to it. From it springs an appreciation and thrive for life, a rebirth. Enviornment plays a third party influence in our daily lives, which tells us how much we are to spend, and how good of savings bond we can keep. Geography in a sence sets us up for a fixed future to a certain extent, it tells us a general idea of things. I believe that influences just as enviornment can be over come though, coming to college as the first generation, i am proof it. There is a bacteria that can consume you which can play into your decisions, but the voice to argue with reason and be able to make rational decisions.

Much of our classroom disscussions spring from a general idea being made into a thesis, which is what we are programmed to do, see what is the RIGHT idea and what is the ONE thing being projected. But in fact the way we read our collegiate articles we have to read more extensively and see what the author tries to reach out on and touch not just persuade. I think concepts are more intricate than one meaning and path. We need to open our periphial eyes.

tragedy in suburbia

My community is tightly packed and it has identical houses in streets over and behind it. The community has a pretty gossipy neighbors. The sense on my block makes you feel like you can't stay there, you have to work elsewhere or go elsewhere to enjoy yourself. My neighborhood is like a rest-stop. You can come visit, but you won't stay for long. Nature appears in a exact location, making it man made.
