GAME 4
the last game we played was musical chairs but it showed how rich people have more seat(chances)in life to become rich an stay rich. the chart that Andy showed us shows that even though the rich people pay more in taxes they do not pay enough to hurt there pockets it is like chump change to them but as for the people who are not rich the taxes hurt them more. in the game Andy put names on the chairs that the "rich" people owned an through out time all of the seats were taken by rich people an that only left 1 or 2 chairs for the poor people. in my mind i think Andy showed us this game to show that the poor people only have 1 slot an the rich have many. i was the only poor person to survive so i felt kinda good to at least be part of the chart even though it was a good thing because out of 5 rich i was the only poor an everybody else in the class must have been the home less. out of 20 students there was only 6 that got a seat. i found it messed up that the rich are so meessed up an couldnt give up a few seats to the homeless but that is how the world is. the people who make over $100,000 a year should be the only people who pay taxes because they are the only ones that can still afford a living after paying it. most people in america cant that is why most are homeless or poor. because they cant afford all the things they need. most people dont make over 20,000 a year an i think Andy said that the proverty lineis 18,000 some people dont even make that an there paying taxes when they cant afford a living for there families an them selfs.
