I need a REAL answer, not just yes or no.
The metaphor is: I was a model citizen.

My son is seventeen and is still in the 10th grade. He seems to not have any motivation to inprove his life.He goes to school everyday but will not turn in any homework.Yes, he is failing this year. The school has done everything in their power to help him regroup but he refuse to do the work. The school has asked him to just get his GED to stop him from just hanging around at school. Now he acts as though is sad because he had to drop out, but he was not doing anything anyway. HELP!!

Im writing an essay on Animal Farm and heres my first body paragrapgh. Please read threw it and tell me if you seee anything that would sound better changed or if something like puncation ( especialy commas ). Thanks in adnvance for the help!

Heres my first paragrapgh:

In society individuals are not treated equally in terms of the labor they do. In fact, some people have to work hard under very harsh conditions. For example, on Animal Farm, “all the animals ( lower class ) worked like slaves”(Orwell 73).This kind of labor is unfair because they do not have a choice of what they must do; they are basically being forced to do it. Secondly, while some people work long and hard others hardly work at all. For instance, on Animal Farm, “During the spring and summer the animals work a 60 hour week”(Orwell 73).

Here is the situation: Government Spending (G) = 1000, National Output (GDP or Y) = 5000. Savings (desired) = 200+5000r+.1Y-.2G and Investment = 1000-4000r. To calculate R (interest rate) S=I so R=.055 or 5.5%. I need to calculate desired savings and desired investment...i can plug in r to both equations and get 780 & 225 however that doesnt create equilibrium. I can use the formula Y - C - G = I to calculate comsumer spending but I don't know what good that does. Any advice would be awesome. The question reads "What are the levels of desired national savings and desired investment in the equilibrium?" So maybe 225 and 780 isn't wrong?
