Yesterday in class (10/18/12) Mr.Boyle wasn’t in school, we
had a substitute. We read “The Crisis”, Number 1 by Thomas Paine. After that we
wrote an essay on how "These are times that try men's souls”. We didn’t have
much to time to write our essays because the substitute talked seventy percent
of the class.
Today in class (10/19/12) we went over “The Crisis” for further
understanding. Then we went over economic problems that faced the United States
in today’s society. I think that people are so worried about have the newest
IPhone, the Newest BMW, the nicest house, and everything else that consume are
generation, that people are spending money they don’t have. This a huge problem
because basically people are setting themselves up for a lifetime of expenses
that will never ends including: credit card debt, car payments, house payments
etc. We also learned about the battle at New York City, the battle of Princeton,
and the battle of Trenton.
