American History

I do agree with Archie's opinion when he said that he could always count on cruelty and greed to motivate people. Everyone has a cruel and greedy side to them and those people only care about themselves. They would do anything to get what they want. In the book, Leon is a good example of a cruel and greedy person who is motivating Bailey and who is also making his classmates laughed at Bailey. All of the things above have shown me that people often suspend their moral beliefs and adopt the morals of a tyrannical leader. Especially high school students because they always want attention, they always want to fit in, therefore, they would do anything to make themselves stand out and get some laughter. But by doing that. They are also using some cruelty and greedy skills.

The book and the movie have two totally different endings. No matter how the director or the author makes the ending, the meaning in the movie or the book still means the same. My thesis is that people often suspend their moral beliefs and adopt the morals of a tyrannical leader. The reason why I chose that to be my thesis is because I have seen that happening around me. I have seen many high school students who are desperate to fit in, therefore, he/she will listen to whoever and whatever the "leader" says. Because they believe in their mind that if they listen to the leader, then their popularity will go up and he/she will just be as popular as he/she's leader. Leon would be a good example of a motivator who is using his greedy and cruelty personality. Leon's cruelty to Bailey made his classmates laugh at him. Leon also used his cruelty to manipulate his students in a weird, freakish way to make a point about his own power. Brother
