Just because animals look similar does that mean they look at survival the same way..

Does a polar bear look at survival the same way a grizzly bear does?

im doing a dbq right now and im really stuck. here it is: "I have seen a small factory of this kind where ten men only were employed, and where some of them preformed 2 or 3 distinct operations... they could... make among them... upwards of 48000 pins a day... but if they had all worked seperatley and independentley... they certainly could not each of them made 20 in a day.
The question is, why were workers in factories so productive?

empty regret

Somewhere in the vicinity of us,
Where I will not hear, not a single word.
I keep this flame of bitterness and hate,
It will keep my warm till my dying day.

Burning my candle at both ends,
One less flame awaits the dawn.
Living in a world of what has been said,
AllI know is I feel cold and I feel dead.

Seated on the edge, of all that is left,
I am but a shell full of empty regret.
I stand and I watch the remains of my soul,
Mixed in with anger, a crimson flow,

I know I wasted, all of my life,
Please, just this once be honest with me.
I'll take it back, all the waste that is mine,
Just do what is right and claim all of your own.

I will hang on to all of the pain, a token of our hate,
Become my sin, a blde with which to pierce my skin.
Free from the damned, that pulls us down.
Covered with blood, what becomes of us now.

I know knowledge is power, but what of those who choose to be uneducated? Any cures? Can we send them to "Ignorance is Bliss" Island?

Résumé by Dorothy Parker
Razors pain you;
Rivers are damp;
Acids stain you;
And drugs cause cramp.
Guns aren’t lawful;
Nooses give;
Gas smells awful;
You might as well live

what is the point of view of this poem?
who is speaking in the poem and to whom?
what is he/she telling to other person?

bleeding trees

Endless, mindless agony is running,
From out my bloodshot eyes.
Standing on a frozen lake,
A lake of my own icy tears.

The first light of spring,
The dark gloom of winter.
All of it has been for real,
Except for the death of fall.

Her body long forgotten,
Covered up by rotting leaves,
On the banks I cry for you,
On the banks of the bleeding trees.

The snow whips my depression,
You pass away before my very eyes.
I have never really understood,
Why you doubt my deep and trusting love.
