... invited him in the first place, as
it was the depression, and I wouldn't exactly call the Finches rich, either.
I would like to try life in his shoes, because he was such an
outstanding member of the community. Also, I would like to see what life
was like back then in the South. There are many things I would enjoy
seeing, such as the average citizen's political views, or if the average
citizen even had one. It would also be fun to see what "technology" there
was, although there was probably not much. Lastly I would enjoy seeing how

America's Right Turn
... the poor. Ironically, he points out that this same inefficacy with regard to cultural and economic crises that allowed Reagan and Bush to come to office, was similar to the inefficacy of the Bush administration which allowed Bill Clinton to gain the presidency, one which declared "It's the economy, stupid" in its first term and promised "The end of big government" in its second.

how society forced them to change and Laura to lose her status in order to fit
in with Jim and that's shown by the horn breaking. Tom then realizes that and

One of his fears is people all people being unhappy because there are no
books. In the book he not happy and he says “ I kept sitting there saying to
myself, I'm not happy, I'm not happy.” I'm sure if there were no books some
