Are we becoming more and more afraid to use our credit cards due to the ongoing credit crunch saga as it tightens everyone’s financial belt up another notch? A recent survey by The British Retail Consortium has indicated a 2% increase from 32% to 34% indicating that we are spending more cash in today’s society.

The reason for this is simply down to the credit crunch. More and more people are afraid to run up high interest rates by using their credit cards and therefore prefer to use cash instead.

It was thought that the UK was fast becoming a cashless society as more and more plastic transactions were taking place each year.

How would you establish a classless society without using communism?

admin — Mon, 01 Mar 2010 13:02:36 +0000

Since communism prevents a society from having classes based on income, like the USA, it would just be one class fits all so there would be no financially corrupt people. And where the state owns of structures; homes, businesses, industries. The government would give people a house, instead of that person working and working to get money to obtain a house.

What are some examples of positive celebrity influence on society?

admin — Fri, 01 Jan 2010 02:21:40 +0000

I am doing a debate for my english class. I am supporting that celebrities have a positive influence on society. All I can think of, is that they donate money to charities. In what other ways are they setting examples and also who do you think of as the top celebrities contributing to society? If you can find any articles to back up your ideas that would be great, because I need to cite sources. Thanks for you help!

Why are the lower members of our society inclined to degrade the community?

admin — Fri, 18 Dec 2009 12:35:06 +0000

Why is it that the people of lower wealth in this society are so inclined to commiting crimes? I know they do it because they might not be wealthy but if they reduced crime, the government would have more money on making the society better and help the lower wealth population to maintain a good lifesyle.
