Considering the massive news break regarding the Governor of California's Thanksgiving Day rules coupled by his dinner party sho

rtly after, ask yourself whether or not it is fair for the government to make mandates regarding peoples' homes and families. Then, compare the situation to 1984's government mandates. How do you think George Orwell would react to this news? Why?
Make sure your argument is well-rounded and address all sides of the question! I do not care what side you take, but I do care how well you defend it.

.

Newsom’s office tried to play down his transgression by claiming that the dinner party took place outside, and that public-health guidelines were followed. Pictures have surfaced, however, showing that the meal was served indoors. And despite requirements to maintain six feet of distance between households and to wear masks between bites of food, as California policy demands, the pictures show everyone seated closely and no one wearing a mask, including Governor Newsom.

People recoil at hypocrisy, but this represents something more serious. Newsom was not simply acting holier-than-thou, preaching one thing from the pulpit while doing the opposite behind closed doors. His was the hypocrisy of power; he has forced people, under penalty of law, to follow restrictions that he personally ignores. There have been real consequences to the lockdown in California: jobs lost, businesses ruined, children going without education, rising depression, mounting protests. And yet the effects of these regulations were apparently of no concern to the governor as he enjoyed a dinner costing $350 per person—excluding the $150 supplement if you choose Wagyu beef instead of lamb chops.

In the novel, The Outsiders, why would being paralyzed and/or wheelchair-bound be worse for johnny than for someone else?
Sergeeva-Olga [200]
Remember, Johnny came from a terrible household. His parents either beat him, or ignored him. If Johnny became crippled, he wouldn't be able to come and go from that house as he pleased, which means he has to stay in that home where he was hated and unwanted. 

Here is the excerpt from the novel: 

"Even if Johnny did live he'd be crippled and never play football or help us out in a rumble again. He'd have to stay in that house he hated, where he wasn't wanted, and things could never be like they used to be. I didn't trust myself to speak. If I said one word, the hard knot in my throat would swell and I'd be crying in spite of myself." (Hinton, 87).
