in a state of economic chaos. Depression and
inflation were prevalent as a result of the war.

Anthony Burgess Personal Freedom
730 words
In the novel, A Clockwork Orange, I feel that
Anthony Burgess has tried to show the importance
of individual freedom over doing the right thing.
However he has taken an extreme example of
violence and perverse acts to accent this belief.
It is my opinion that Burgess has somehow been
blinded to the facts of nature in his quest to
ensure personal freedom. The lines of just cause
and moral principle have been eliminated. Personal
freedom can be described as acting upon your own
accord and not beco...

expanding NATO to achieve security in a region
that is historically violent. Although both sides
have some valid arguments, the benefits of
expanding NATO outweigh the negatives. Expanding

The only things that come to my mind when I think
of slavery and of the book To be a Slave are
either misunderstanding or very negative. During
the slavery years, African people were subjected
to some of the worst treatments of the history of
this planet. They were forced to work for white
people as slaves, but that is nothing compared
with the treatment they received. Slaves were
beaten, mal-nourished, and disrespected as a
whole. Slaves were considered as low as the lowest
