In this situation there is a lot of power given to each individual who shares the common land. Because they all want to maximize their own profits it is up to each person to share the commons fairly. If a group of people from a different country, race, or ethnicity from the people who originally shared the commons joined the community a lot of prejudice towards that person may occur. This type of prejudice can be similar to the kind that Ta-Nehisi…

This action then affects the entire community all because of the selfishness of a single person or a group of people. One usually takes too much in order to secure him or herself. For example, if the common area is a pond, one may catch too many fish to ensure a meal for an entire month so that he or she may survive.

I had just gotten home from school and my dad shouts, “Micaiah, let’s go check out some cars.” My heart was exploding with excitement, the thought of me actually being able to have a car of my own was the best news so far…

Throughout life everyone is faced with challenging obstacles that they have to overcome, sadly I learned this for myself sooner than most. In October of 2012 I became a licensed driver in the state of Virginia. I was your typical sixteen year old boy with plans on taking road trips, modifying my car to increase its performance, and planning on never riding the school bus again. In three short months my world was turned upside down and I never thought it would be right again. It was December…

However, elderly people should not be excluded from having a driver’s license because of their age if they pass the written test, driving test, and eye exam set by the state of Iowa.
