Bad Luck, black cat

[Katie]

see, That's the beauty of some of these little stories....they have social issues disguised by some sappy shallow something.

we got the issue in this story...*looks back at the other little stories here*

We have: The willingness of corporations to substitute robots (automation) for low skill employees (which would create an even bigger gap in the social classes if the jobs for the working poor are eliminated in favor of cheaper solutions)

a story that highlights the shortfalls of the press in checking their sources before running a story (therefore creating situatuions in which they later have to explain how they could have gotten things wrong *political stuff omitted *)

the encroachment of modern life into seemingly unspoiled native land...(Will this ultimately mean the end of their traditions and way of life as it did with my ancestors as the white settlers moved west? Will they assimilate? )

We have the ugly reality of a society who discounts the knowledge and cognitive skills of a child and this ends in tragedy

we have the story of a young man who was killed because he had to "be seen" in areas where his fan base gathered and who was killed for his perceived actions without regard for the good that he did in the community..thus highlighting the disparity in lifestyle experienced by successful rappers to any other successful person who came from "Poor" backgrounds.

There's always SOME issue that can be brought forth.....I'm just one who likes to see if it is discovered. If the people wanna eat cake, so be it...pooooor kitty in the wall. If they want steak, well....I'll just wait to see if i should serve it or not
