Flat Tax Steve Forbes
5,491 words
Our current tax system is complex, costly, and
unfair. Surely, America can do better for our
children than redistribution and regulation. Our
nation is over four trillion dollars in debt. It
is time to act instead of letting lawyers and
politicians play with our money. A flat tax plan
is a simple solution to remedy the stagnant apathy
our nation has been so accustomed to for the last
seventy years. A flat tax would make calculating
and collecting tax simple. According to 1996
studies, Americans ...

For more than a hundred years important Black
leaders such as: Douglass, Elliot, Washington, and
Du Bois have been both praised and sensationalized
in our (Black) history books for their individual

Point Of View Modest Proposal
795 words
If one looks beyond the actual content of A Modest
Proposal, he / she will realize that the tone is
one of utter disgust. Swift is simply expressing
his disgust with the actions of the Irish
government. He felt that the state of the country
was repulsive and was disgusted over the way the
government was handling it. It was almost as if he
was in a state of disbelief in regards to the
problems in Ireland. Swifts tone in A Modest
Proposal is very similar to his mood. Swifts mood
is also one of sar...

Jonathan Swifts satire of the use of reason during

is nothing more than the man who wrote Gulliver's
Travels - or, to be more precise, the author of
the first part of that strange satire. For
Brobdinbnag, Laura and the land of the Houyhnhnms
are distant countries of which we know little or
nothing at all. And even Lemuel Gulliver's

Nuclear Waste Waste Disposal

The General Problem The generation of energy from
nuclear fuel reactors has been a highly
controversial issue for the better part of the
last century. At one point in the 1960 s, nuclear
power was thought to be the energy source of the
future because it was considered cleaner than
carbon or coal, and much more efficient. After
incidents such as the near fatal meltdown at Three
Mile Island and the disastrous incident at
Chernobyl, many people have been vehemently
opposed to nuclear fuel generated...

Swift Modest Proposal

? A Modest Proposal? by Jonathan Swift challenges
his audience, the affluent Englishmen, to decide
for themselves to act as humans with rationality
or as animals with basic survival instincts. Swift
brilliantly orchestrates the methods of satire,
tone, and imagery to create an exaggerated
portrait of Ireland? s situation in the
eighteenth-century. The inhumane exploitation and
monopolization of estates by their English
neighbors have left Irishmen in deepest of
despairs and anguish for their pov...

Modest Proposal Author Suggests
340 words
Often, when a problem arises, people offer
solutions to deal with the problem. Some may be
realistic while others may be a bit too
imaginative. In A Modest Proposal and Hunters
Harvest the authors solutions may sound quite
preposterous, nevertheless are highly logical. The
both offer an objective view to what they believed
was a problem, but in a satiric way. In A Modest
Proposal, the author suggests that in Ireland, the
children of low-income families be sold as meat

Jonathon Swifts A Modest Proposal Jonathon Swift
assumes a few key ideas throughout A Modest
Proposal. It is unquestionably assumed through the
essay that anyone would be willing to give up and
sell his child as nourishment. It is presumed that
the reader would not hesitate to accept the ideas
of cannibalism and barbarism. If this is not
understood, it is hard to read the piece without
bias. I have found through careful reading that
the illustration of the proposal is not just an
