I cracked up at my brother's and dad's picture. Right…

In his article, Gladwell describes multiple examples of protests that had no means of social media during these events. Consequently, these…

When I was in elementary school, my mother went on about the horrors of roller coasters, mainly ranting about news…

The roller coaster: a device that has been around since the early 17th century. It has immensely changed since it’s origins though. Its size, shape, structure, and overall look has developed into what we know and (for some) love today. Its gargantuan size originated from a way of ice sledding, believe it or not. Though it looks very different today, the first design was only a slide, on an icy path. Even back then though it was not one for changes. Soon after the first invention of the roller…

The government should step on price gouging when businesses raise their prices too high, the government should make a law about this. When price gouging is done in a natural disaster, I think it affects the consumers and the businesses. When…

Only a small amount of companies are responsible for the majority of the industry’s output. Also, it is difficult to enter or exit the industry. Decision making is influenced in an oligopoly by the high rate of competition. Since there are only a few companies in the industry any change will generate an immediate…
