There are two systems, Socialism and Capitalism. These two systems will change the way you live substantially. The two economic differences change how much power the people and the government have. For instance if you lived in a country like Sweden you might say it is Socialism although, it would actually be communism. Communism means that if you own a farm or a house it is either owned by public or the the State.
Capitalism is where you have lots of control over what you do. The government does not have control over what the price of the items you sell are. The goods you sell are intended to make profit whereas socialism is not. The government does not interfere with what you do to intend to do.
Socialism is where your advantages get lower. Here is why, lets say you have a business you make your profit although you do not get to keep what you make. The money goes to the government to make roads better make new building and so on. Socialist believe inequality is bad for society, The government is responsible for whether people are poor or not.
In conclusion, Socialism and Capitalism can benefit you in different ways. I personally think capitalism is better because you have more control over what you do. In the end all that matters is that we have a roof over our head.
Karl Marx Karl Henrich Marx was born in Tier, Prussia on May 5, 1818. Marx was an economist, historian, philosipher(sp) and journalist. He was a Revolutionary Scocialist whose work in economics became the foundation of our current understanding of labor and how it relates to capital. He published many books including the “Communist Manifesto” in 1848, and “Das Kapital” in 1867-1894.
Karl Marx was one of nine children whose parents were Henrich and Henreitta Marx. His father was a successful lawyer who was also well known and an activist for Prussian reform. Marx’s father was Jewish, although he had to stop his religion because of the 1825 law that banned all Jewish religion. Marx was baptized when he was six along with his 9 other siblings; his mom waited until his father died to become baptized. Karl Marx was an average student who was home schooled until the age of twelve.
He attended a Jesuit high school in Trier; for five years. The school was under surveillance and and was raided in 1832. In October 1835, Karl Marx started to take classes at the University of Bonn, which was a rebellious collage. After he took part in student life, he became “another person.” He was imprisoned for drunkenness and being very loud around compass.
He later attended school in Berlin, Germany where he finally took his studies seriously; studying law and philosophy. In 1836 he was becoming more zealous (passionate) about politics at which time he was engaed(sp) to a woman named Jenny Westphalen, who was four years his senior year. He received his doctorate degree from the University of Jenna in 1841 and began to work as a journalist.
Karl Marx believed in Socialism which is a political and economic system where most economically valuable property are owned or controlled by the public or the state. For instance, prices for basic goods such as chicken is set by the government. Karl Marks(sp) also believed that states were controlled by wealthy people who made it seem like they were interested in helping the common person.
Marx predicted that capitalism would have internal tensions and would later be destroyed and replaced by socialism. Karl Marx of pleurisy in London on March 14, 1883. His original grave was non-descript. In 1954 the communist party of great britain erected a large tombstone including a bust of Marx. The stone is etched with the last line of the communist manifesto “Workers of all lands unite” and the quote form Theses on Feuerbach.
How do Marx’s ideas relate to communism?

I jumped out of bed relived that it was still Sunday. I quickly grabbed my blanket, it was 62 degrees outside. I could smell the wonderful bacon. I ran to steal my brothers part of the portion. I grabbed my pancakes and the syrup, and like alway’s my brother accidentally drenched his pancakes.
My mom yelled “are you ready Erick.” Then I remembered I haven’t even took a shower. I cleaned up and my dad drove me to the baseball field, still half asleep I started playing catch with my teammate Joseph. The game began we were the home team so we played on the field first, I was playing Center Field. It was the first inning the score was 0 to 0.
The ball zoomed pass the infielder’s and in to left field. The ball still moving hit the left fielders glove and flied off. I threw it in to the short stop. The guy was leading off from 2nd. Strike the empire exclaimed. Time flew, it was the third inning.
The score was 2 to 4. None of the balls approached me. The sixth inning came quick. The score was 3 to 7. It was the last hit, A double,triple at last the worst thing possible a inside the park home run. They might have won physically but we won mentally.
So in conclusion sometimes we lose and win. But in the end what matter’s is that we all had fun.
The Panther Chameleon can change colors in numerous ways. It has photonic crystals that are embedded in the Chameleon skin. The photonic crystals helps the Chameleon to change colors.
A Chameleon also changes colors based on the temperature outside. The Chameleon also has cells, called iridophores, that help them change their color. There are two layers of photonics crystals, which helps it to change colors.
Adult chameleons have two or three layers of skin. If the skin turns blue this means they are relaxed. When it is combined with yellow pigments it appears green. Scientist are trying to discover the secrets how the chameleons use their crystals to change their colors. Thank you for listening.
During the 19th century in London, life was transformed by the Industrial Revoulution. The industrial revolution was the period during which many technological changes took place. For instance, the steam engine and locomotive allowed people to travel from place to place much quicker than they were able to before. Also, the power loom allowed clothing to be produced faster and in larger quantities than before.
People did not like the industrial revolution because it changed the way they were acostomed to living. Before the industrial revolution people lived in small villages and towns. However, during the industrial revolution many people moved to citie to find jobs. Eventually, people got used to the industrial revolution and liked the improvements it created in their lives. Britian became known as the first urban society. By 1851 more than half the population started living in cities.
In 1801 the population of London was was 9 million. However, in1901 the population grew to 41 million. Many people from Ireland and other places started moving to London to start a better life. People from Ireland moved to London because of a potato famine, war and other dangerous conditions. There where two different types of innovations technological and organizational; technological innovation is making new technology. organizational is just organizing towns farms etc.
In the 19th century, Britain was ruled by an elite and only a small group of men were allowed to vote. This all changed in 1832, when there were many people protested especially about the opportunity to vote. A small group of women joined together to form the National Union of Women Suffrage society. This movement allowed to vote.
During the 1800s, London had many inventions which dramatically improved their economy. For instance, the steam driven power engine allowed people to communte much quicker. The improved seed drill, used to harvest seeds from the soil, allowed farmers to harvest seed quicker.
Chemical fertilizer enabled farmers to produce larger crops. Dairy farms produced cheese, milk and other dairy products. Tractors were used to plow the land which allowed farmers to plant their crops quicker. Water desalination allowed water to be treated for the public to drink.
The citizens of London chose to build the capital city in London because it was located next to the River Thames which made it easier to transport goods.
During the 1800 people in London ate beef, chicken, vegetables such as corn and beans. They also hunted animals such as deer, squirrel, and rabbits. They also ate dairy products such as milk and cheeses. They also ate many berries such as blueberries, raspberries, juniper-berries etc.
Many people became rich during the Industrial Revolution. Although, much more people remained poor. During the industrial revolution a poor person did not have much time for leisure. Poor people spent most of their time working so that they can afford food and a roof over their head. The
government created many laws to make sure that children between the ages of 7-14 were able to attend school. However, if you were a poor person, your parents would probably have you work to help support the family instead of going to school.
The rich during the Industrial Revolution included people who owned land which were called aristocracy. People in this group had servants to do their work for them so they had a lot of leisure time. They used their leisure time to do such activities as hunting, going to fancy dress balls and breeding race horses.
If you were a capitalist, you probably work very hard in your business and invest some of your profits to make you even more money. had enough money to have servants, which would give you free time to read or pursue your hobbies. There was also a middle class during the industrial revolution. People in the middle class did not have as much leisure time as rich people did.
In conclusion living in the Industrial Revolution, could be very difficult and/or hard. If I were to live back then in the Industrial Revolution I’m pretty sure life would be tough for me and many others. In all this revolution was a very important one because lots of new inventions were invented.
There are many ways you can have fun at the pool or the beach. If you like water you will love both places, it is also very safe if you are a new swimmer because they have lifeguards watching you 24/7. My favorite saying for when I go to the beach is having “fun in the sun.” They are both very relaxing. There are three different aspects of the pool and the beach. One of which is climate it can either be cold or hot. There are lots of water sport choices you cane make if you go to either one.
At the pool there are many wonderful things you can do like at fancy pool places you can eat food, order drinks, taking swimming lessons. It is also safe because you can not get bit by a sea animal. Also you can not get drifted back by a rip current in the water or be cut by glass on your feet they also clean the water by putting chlorine in it so you do not get sick. Although some of these bad parts can be highly unlikely depending on where you go.
There are many differences between the pool and the beach. You can be bit by sea animals at the beach, like sharks sting rays, crabs jelly fish, etc. This can also be very unlikely, and not all sea animals will hurt you it usually happens if you bother them, like Seals or a school of fish are not dangerous. Also, the pool does not have any sand and it is either outside or inside. The beach has seaweed and the good part is that you can snorkel, swim, scuba dive etc.
Lets start on the beach. It is fun and relaxing and it can be very sunny ( I love the sun). At the beach there are endless possibilities of fun, such as snorkeling paddle boarding ,boogie boarding, surfing, etc. Depending on where you go you can have harmless or harmful sea animals such as dolphins, seals, jelly fish, sting rays, all of those types of fish.
I know I love it when I see a school of fish pass me when i am in the water. Many places on earth can change whether you like the beach or not. Mexico has amazing clear warm water and many places I the West Indies do to. Although if you do not like warm water you might not want to experience other beaches.
In conclusion going to the beach or the pool can be fun, intriguing, and makes you have butterflies in you stomach. In all you can have an endless amount at fun at either places.

Emiliano Zapata was born on August 8, 1879 in Anenecuilo, Mexico. He fought in guerrilla actions (a large group of people fighting for a cause), during the Revolutionary War in Mexico. Zapata formed and commanded the Liberation Army to fight for more power for the citizens. People liked Emiliano, because he was a man of his people. Zapata became the leading figure in Anenecuilo, Mexico, where his family lived for many generations. When he was a child he was a farmer, not given much space, they lived off what little land the government gave his family. The people of Anenecuilo disagreed with the government. The result of that was fights.
Poor citizens of Mexico were rebelling against Mexico’s laws. Which led to violence and killing. During that time he seeked a better life for the farmers. He put pressure on the the government of the region, he started taking over land. Mexican president Porfrio Diaz was being threatened by a man who lost the campaign who is known as Francisco Madero. Eventually their would be a war, but at that time young, poor Zapata would not realize he played such a big role in The Mexican Civil War.
Zapata fled to the mountains to make a plan. that made Francisco Madero incapable of destroying his goals of the revolution. During this time Zapata developed the slogan Teirra y Libertad which means land and liberty. In 1913 general Victoriano Huerta killed Madero and took over the country. Venustiano Carranza made an army to defat him to become the leader of Mexico. Huerta was defeated and he fled to the mountains on July 11, 1914.
My perfect week would start out on a sunny summer Saturday morning, I would go to the pool with my neighbors Bella, Yusef, Abraham and my school friend Emma. I would pack peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, juice boxes, cookies and watermelon for my friends and I to enjoy for lunch. We would all swim for many hours. After swimming we return to my house to relax, watch tv, and play outside in my neighborhoods. One of my favorite outside activities is climbing trees. I would have my friends climb the jacaranda tree located in my front yard with me. Then we would ride scooters and skateboards on my street.
I would have my friends sleep over at my house. The next morning, we would make the most flavorful pumpkin pancakes with strawberries and mangos on the side, with warm maple syrup and just a dash of butter and a hint of nutmeg for breakfast.
After our delicious pumpkin pancake breakfast I would plan out a trip with my family to Africa. I would really enjoy seeing some of the majestic creatures of African and experience life on the continent. When we get to Africa we would check out the local cuisines. I think it would be awesome to check out the famous foods Akara, Alloco, and Fufu. I would also like to visit some museums, go hiking, white water rafting and visit a music festival in the city.
After enjoying the amazing continent of Africa, I would visit Japan. I think it would be fascinating to experience Japanese life for at least 12 hours. When I go to a new city I like to experience the local cuisine. I would like to visit a restaurant and try a local dish such as plain cooked rice served with a raw egg and soya sauce (tamago kake gohan) with natto or other toppings. This dish is traditional to Japanese culture and I think it would represent a good choice. For dinner, it would be nice to enjoy a nice walk in the city and see the Cherry blossom trees. Then I would visit a local restaurant to enjoy Sushi. Then on the third day we would go on a tour of Japan and stop of in the capital city of Tokyo, or as its spelled in Japanese, 東京. This would be my perfect day.
