The correct answer is value. Many people started believing that things are worth much more than they are worth because they cost much more money, but in reality they often cost what they cost in old times, but the prices are adjusted for inflation. Comics used to cost a quarter a chapter and now they're 4 dollars per chapter, except it's almost the same when adjusted for inflation.
The plot is based on the story of Romeo and Juliet, Shakespeare, but adapted to modern times. In New York, two bands of young people, the Sharks, of Puerto Rican origin, and the Jets, Americans of European origin, are rivals and live in disputes. The conflict arises when Maria (Natalie Wood), sister of the head of the Puerto Rican gang, Bernardo (George Chakiris), and Tony (Richard Beymer), ex-member of the Jets, fall in love. The two bands incite the leaders, Bernardo and Tony, to fight. Tony does not want to but he is forced to do it, since Bernardo kills his friend Riff (Russ Tamblyn) with a knife. Tony then goes after Bernardo and kills him. To avenge Bernardo, Chino, María's suitor, looks for Tony and shoots him: Tony dies in the arms of María. As in Romeo and Juliet, the two bands end up solving their disputes as a result of the death of the lovers. Unlike the character of Juliet in the play of Shakespeare, in West Side Story Maria goes out with her head held high.
The musical was innovative: for the dances, which are part of the dramatic action, for the very varied music of Bernstein (Latin rhythms, jazz, love songs of great melodic beauty ...) and for the theme.

The staging of the song "America" is located on a rooftop where members of the Puerto Rican gang Sharks and their girlfriends discuss their lives in the United States.

The Indians of the southwest culture group developed Irrigation techniques but the Indians of the Columbia plateau did not because the southwest is an arid region whereas the Columbian plateau is a region having abundant rainfall.
<h3>What is irrigation?</h3>
Irrigation is an activity to provide water to the soil for the growth of plants in a large area by various artificial methods like pumping, spraying, etc.
The irrigation techniques are required to be developed in the southwest region as it is an arid region, that is, the area where not enough water is available for plantation and cultivation of crops. In contrast, the Columbian plateau has got abundant rainfall which is enough for the plants and crops to grow.
Therefore, the irrigation methods have been adopted by Indians of the southwest region and not by the Columbian plateau area.
