of the workers. He gave the example of a boy who wanted to spend less time working and more time playing. The boy invented a machine to do simplify his own work and in the process his job became obsolete (Bilsker 30). The boy’s determination, ingenuity, and laziness cost him his livelihood. Smith observed that while production was up and workers were masters at their jobs, many companies were starting to replace the workers with the machines that were built to help them in the first…

Very little reviews and data is available for seniors, but that does not mean there are not adverse effects of falling in the “gray divide.” Throughout the course of this review, negative results of the digital divide are primarily deliberated in relation with political data, like social capital, inclusion, and support.

Eventually, I am able to connect all the different pieces and fill up the gaps to finally reach the solution. In mathematical problem solving, while the solution is the original goal, the journey to reach it is equally important and…

In a single day, teenagers, ranging from 13 to 18, spend over nine hours on entertainment media, and at least thirty-two minutes of this time is spent on Instagram (“Landmark Report”)(Wagner). Instagram boasts that it has over 800 million users that are active every month (Balakrishnan and Boorstin).
