In Latin America poverty is structural and is becoming increasingly entrenched. Some governments strengthen and expand and others generate policies that help part of that population have greater possibilities to improve their living conditions.

In recent years, levels of poverty in the US have grown at a rapid pace and the living conditions of this segment of the population have also declined. They face great problems such as the strong inequality, the persistence of racism or the existence of a bias from rich and powerful sectors.

Currently, governments in developing countries and North America, lack policies that provide assistance to the most vulnerable sectors of the population. The fundamental difference is that in Latin America, poverty has always existed and they can access basic services at no cost. Although they are crowded and do not give enough coverage.

On the other hand, although it would seem like a help, the possibilities of obtaining money in the USA through credits means that the populations living in poverty become impoverished even more.

Poverty is difficult everywhere in the world. And, unfortunately, lately, countries tend to ignore it, accentuating differences and widening the gap between social classes.

Answer:

Practice brevity, the writer, would have said the same thing in fewer words without altering the meaning

Explanation:

Using brevity in your writing empowers you to show up rapidly at the point you are making reasonably and justifiably. This style of composing is known as laconism, and it is appropriate for a business situation.

The cutting edge, performing various tasks psyche is an obstruction, and brevity is the way to section. At the point when you think you have an hour and you hold on to convey the great stuff until the end, you're past the point of no return. You previously lost your group of spectators in an initial couple of minutes.

PLZ HELP WILL GIVE BRAILYEST
Virty [35]

On a national basis, natural gas has long been the dominant choice for primary heating fuel in the residential sector. Lately, electricity has been gaining market share while natural gas, distillate fuel oil, kerosene, and liquefied petroleum gas (propane) have declined.

Part of the national change in heating fuel choice can be attributed to population migrations farther west and south. But even within Census regions, electricity has been gaining market share at the expense of natural gas. The Northeast is the exception, as both natural gas and electricity have been increasing while distillate fuel oil and kerosene have declined.

In the Midwest, most homes are heated by natural gas. The Midwest also has the highest percentage of homes heated by propane, although both natural gas and propane have lost market share to electricity since 2005. The South is the only Census region where electricity is the main space heating fuel in the majority of homes. Heating fuel preferences in the West largely mirror the national average, although households in the West are more likely to use wood as their primary heating fuel or to report not using heating equipment at all.

Sedaia [141]

Answer:

Option c (are difficult to see for the untrained observer) would be the appropriate choice.

Explanation:

  • The organized collection of social structures and traditions of institutionalized interactions together which make up society are the social system. Social organization is therefore a consequence of and specifically influences social contact.
  • Social systems are not apparent to the untrained observer directly, but they are still there and influence all aspects of current societal human consciousness.  

The other options offered are not connected to just the scenario in question. So, the solution is indeed the right one.

The Media(social media, music, news etc.) is always negative about religion. Do you agree? 2 paragraphs for and 2 against
beks73 [17]

The most negative aspect of the media is that it controls what the public perceives and hears about.  European and Asian exchange students in my area, for instance, often ask why Americans receive little or no real world news.  There is a major network that has an evening program that is supposed to deal with world news, but little other than the mid-East is discussed. The magazine that is named for world news also gives only a select report on select parts of the world. 

Major newspapers in the United States are owned by certain people who control the slant of the news, again.  One need only look at the treatment of presidents such as Richard Nixon whose conduct was throughout his life constantly under the miscroscope and compare it to the investigations on other congressmen and presidents who have had less than ethical careers themselves. One such example is the senator from and Eastern state who undoubtedly committed murder as a young man, yet he was lauded throughout the media after his death.

The presidential elections are perfect examples of the bias of the media.  In fact, <span>Time </span>magazine's editors even admitted to having influence the past election because of their front covers that presented one particular candidate a multitude of times. In another example of news bias, when citizens went to Washington to protest the proposed health care bill, it was reported to the public that a few thousand attended when later it was revealed that actually millions of citizens had gone.

Photographs are good at creating bias, also.  Depending upon the angle of the camera, a small group can seem like more people, or many people's picture can be cropped to appear smaller.  So often, programs that are decidedly conservative invite prominent guests whose views are conservative, as do liberal programs. Frequently, people of one side or another watch programs that reinforce their beliefs so that they feel justified in what they believe.  Regular television shows even affect people's ideas about human relationships, race relationships, and morality.  "Sex and the City" and like shows condone behavior heretofore scorned in the America of earlier days.

There are groups that work behind the scenes to expose these biases of the media.  Judicial Watch is one such group that prints information withheld by mainstream media. Currently, they are working on an issue that may go before the Supreme Court before it is over.
