D'ARA Townsend

What was written in this section makes a lot of sense, for example it talks about the flaws in our system. How we spend so much money funding the prison system and sending people to jail who really need help. The money the spend doing so can be put back into the communities to help those who need help helping themselves. I really loved the $200 a month Nixon implemented. In addition to that I appreciated how the book concluded on a happy note. A lot of the policies I didn’t know existed. I never knew Alaska was giving money to women and children in poverty. What enjoyed most about this section is that it revealed that the government has often stepped in to help the poor, I feel that it is easy to acknowledge what hasn’t been done instead of the good that has been done, and I’m glad this was included and included at the end so it won’t be easily forgotten.


Test Question: Do you think it was fair for the citizens to receive the $200 a month, but if it wasn’t used in a month the money be forfeited?
