A Pecking Order

In a topic “A pecking Order” Terry Mason tries to show the condition of stewardess. We people think stewardess job is an easy task, but in truth it is very difficult. They are bounded by many rules and regulations. They have to maintain each and everything like body figure, nails, eyes, cloth. Even though passengers give them a hard time they can’t even say a word, but they have to smile and give proper respect to passengers. Steward Job is a very difficult and risky job. Anything can happen at any time. They have fly over the sky and if something gets wrong with the machine then they don’t have any chance to live. So, Terry Mason tries to show the life of stewardess. He wants us to know that; the job of stewards is full of responsibility, and they have to handle the whole passengers in the aircraft during flight hours.

Confronting Inequality

When I read the topic “confronting Inequality” by Paul Krugman I saw variety of inequality like: the costs of inequality, the Arithmetic of equalization, reducing market inequality and so on. I did not go deeply on last two inequalities. When I read the cost of inequality I found there is some inequality in term of social cost and income. Social inequality leads to a matter of envy and insults, but income inequality don’t have any role for such matter. An individual can accept income inequality, but they cannot accept social inequality.
I haven't gone detail about this topic, so I just wrote the thing which I understand. I will re-read and try to post better one.

class and Identity

Mike Lefevre’s thought about his job as a laborer rather than working class. He clearly explained in the first line of first paragraph that he was a laborer. He had strictly muscle work. He was a good worker, but he didn’t get excited about his job. He didn’t like the foreman of his company. If it was possible then he just kicks him off. There was not good relationship between foreman and him. His thought and foreman thought was totally different.
Mike Lefevre’s thought that the main responsible to built building are laborer. The owner of house always point out “that is my house”, but they don’t know how much effort have given laborer. He is disappointed with this word. Laborers have to work in low wage and they have to work more. He tries to explain the story of laborer and try to show; what difficulties the laborers have to face in their life.

Bonus post(Extra credit)

when i read the article for first time i was lost. I didn't understand anything. I didn't know what the topic is about,but i just Re-read the article again and again until i get some point. After reading article i get some idea about health care reform that Obama claimed to mark a new session in America. His main aim to sign the bill was to give basic security to everybody. But in effect the healthy families will be picking up most of the bill and their insurance will be more expensive.
I just posted some information regarding that article to start my essay argument. I will just look that article for several times and post my essay argument as soon as possible.
