The set of lines from Act I, Scene V of Shakespeare's "Twelve Night" that shows Olivia's interest in Cesario's (Viola's) social rank when Viola tries to woo Olivia on Orsino's behalf are "What is your parentage? 'Above my fortunes, yet my state is well: I am a gentleman.' -I'll be sworn thou art." Olivia asks Cesario about his social position, she is seeing him as interesting and then finds out she is falling in love with him. In Elizabethan times, a person's social position was very important. Someone of a lower rank could not marry a person of a higher rank. Olivia is a beautiful lady of noble birth so she has to consider very carefully whom she marries to.

The metaphor<em> "blanket of ignorance"</em> depicts a situation just as when one covers a "blanket of cotton" to prevent the body from exposure; similarly the "blanket of ignorance" has covered the minds of individuals from reaching their full potential. In a sense, ignorance has now become the order of the day after "three hundred years of slavery."
Income inequality of the U.S. has reached the highest peak since the Great Depression. Americans who make 40 times of much are in the top 1% than the bottom 90%. The population in 1978 had 0.1% claim to nearly 7% of the wealth and a 22% increase by 2012. Other nation's income inequality has had an armful of harmful outcomes, debt was also one of the higher rates, crime, and mental illness. Researchers want to understand this better by investigating how his inequality might have an influence of those of know of it.
I don't know how well it is. Kinda hard to summarize this. Hope I at least helped a bit.
