Book

The book I'm reading is called "Inequality: Opposing Viewpoints in Social Problems". It's basically social issues in the modern society, and the divisions that come with it. The first chapter is about social class. (Upper Class. Middle Class, Working Class, and all the inbetweens.) The first paragraph is the arguments of a woman named Sheila Collins, a political science professor at William Paterson College about Capitalism (as our country is a capitalist country) and what it needs to survive. She says, "Capitalism needs inequality in order to function and continually reproduces inequalities as a part of its normal operation." Anyways. I chose to read this because I'm interested in social orders and issues. I believe there are more problems with America that the government and news let on, and this books seems to have them all. Well, feel free to comment if you want... I'll post again soon.
