Discussion Questions # 2

1.) Values of homemade, to be honest there is nothing like homemade in my opinion. If i was to choose between a store bought sandwich and one made at home, I would choose the homemade sandwich, reason is I made it the way I want it and I know whats in it. Homemade is something you trust and you know is made with the best of that makers abilities. However store bought is ready made and can often times be of higher quality since its been lab tested and factory made. Although homemade is labor price free store bought does come in higher quantities ready for purchase. Prices , homemade to the maker and often times receiver place a priceless price on a homemade good, usually because its not made anywhere but by that person, society however labels homemade almost worthless, they are used too store bought advertised ready mades that they believe are on sale or what ever percent off. Some other well known individual that was self taught is Bill Gates. Bill was a college dropout who didn't really do anything in law school except learn about the computer by himself. Bill learned how to work with computers and later used his knowledge to co-found Microsoft.

2.) Learning for some people is a freedom. Freedom from being oppressed by those who know more. Knowing more then others will give you a horrid advantage over those who are less educated. Some of the first financial empires were built due to the fact that people of that time were too ignorant to know any better. Take like the rail road companies, back in the day they ran the financials of this nation like it was theirs. Now that we are more educated we are not as gullible as before. The unions formed because of company policy being too demanding is an example. They learned they had power and exercised it.

3.) If I was to be locked in a cell i would choose to learn math and law. These two skills are to me the most important subjects you can have when you get out of jail. Math is important because you will need to calculate prices and any income you might be receiving. Knowing these things can make getting back on your feet after jail so much easier. Law is another important subject because knowing if I was wrongly accused can land me a very nice paycheck from who ever got me sent to jail in the first place. This will also help prevent me from going back to jail. My goals after jail would be to make sure I would never go back, one way is by securing a financial future for myself and family, and knowing the law and avoiding any illegal activity to get sent back.
