THE MODEST PROPOSAL

In this essay I'm going to talk about how two values justice and fairness are or aren´t in the story, before i start i want to write what this two values mean , justice is just behaviour or treatment and fairness is impartial and just treatment or behaviour without favouritism or discrimination , this two values are the same thing,
i think that in the story ¨THE MODEST PROPOSAL¨ aren´t this values because the story is about overpopulation  in Ireland that brings a bad economical situation because there where a lot of poor people and Johnathan swift the author(main character) proposed a new strategy to end this economical situation , He proposes that since there are many poor children and parents who have nothing to offer, it is better for the government to buy the children from their parents, feed them and sell them as food to the people who have money.
 i think that Swift have good intentions  because he wants to help but the solution he is giving it's not the right one but he thinks that his idea is he best one because he says that this would bring a lot of benefits like for families mothers would love and care more their kids , i think that if he want to help he would give another option becuase what he proposes is unfair in all aspects because poor people have no choice because the government is not giving another solution for the problem so  i think that there´s no justice because they are violating the most important right of the human being that is the right to life , the right to live, they are taking away to those childrens their moment of dreaming,their goals , their mistakes and no matter if they are 1 year old because at some point they will grow , they are not given to the children any opportunity ,  i think swift is not putting in poor people foot because he is not  thinking what would the mother of those kids feel about it , because he has no child, there´s no justice because swift and people who have money think that they  have the right to decide about the lives of people regardless of whether they have the resources or not and that is not true , there's no balance between poor and rich people and also i think that is inhuman because they are treating poor people like animals , animals in the way that rich people think to eat their meat and they are from the same species.

The bridge

In a very small town called lost lake that does not even appear on the map and very little adsequible, a group of five medical students one Friday had left early from their shift in the hospital and went to celebrate a disco after a night out. long day, after a long time being there celebrating and already very drunk they call them because there was a massive crash and they needed all the doctors because they were not enough with those who were on duty, when they heard the news they got on the car, when They were about to arrive, passing by the bridge they collided with a truck and they all died. it is said that at late hours of the night when you pass by the bridge you hear the voices of the five students and their laments and other times it is said that cars and people have passed by and they have not left that they disappear into the tunnel, many people who live in the area say that their souls are still in pain and that thanks to the bad energy of the bridge this has become a porta...
