How did the government affect its people in Sparta?

History

Sparta had a highly unusual system of government.
Two kings ruled the city, but a 28-member 'council of elders' limited their powers.
These men were recruited from the highest social class, the aristocratic Spartiates. Rather like medieval knights, the Spartiates were a class of military professionals who lived most of their lives in communal barracks. Rarely seeing their wives and children, their lands were farmed by slaves, leaving them free to pursue to the arts of war.
Beneath this highest class was a middle class, called the Perioeci. Made up of a farmers and artisans who were the descendants of those peoples whom the Spartans had first conquered, the Perioeci paid taxes and could serve in the army, but had no real political rights.
At the bottom were the helots: a slave class descended from those peoples who had resisted subjugation by Sparta. Because the helots were constantly rebelling, the Spartans attempted to control them by forming a secret society that annually murdered any helot suspected of encouraging subversion.

My Father said he was let go. "Let go from what, Father?" I asked curiously. He walked to his and my Mother's room. Not too long after, I heard yelling. It wasn't until my Father stormed out of the house that I heard my Mother cry. What was happening? It wasn't until now, 4 years later that I understood what happened.

They call it "The Great Depression," it's a quite accurate name. My Father was unemployed, and started drinking. My Mother decided to attempt to get a job, even then, there wouldn't be enough money to support my Father's Alcohol addiction, my brother and myself. I've also noticed my neighbors talking about my Mother when I am doing my house chores. We have resorted to going to St. Paul's potluck Tuesday worship. Everyone who went, usually only went to get a full stomach.

I am in charge of patching up our clothes. We cant afford new ones, so I have to fix the ones we already have. Everybody says, "Use it up, wear it out, make do or do without,” maybe it'll catch on. This depression has taken a tole on everybody however, some families more than others. Everything has gone wrong, I heard about this crime duo, Bonnie and Clyde? They are going around robbing banks in the North. It's not so safe, so Mother says I have to be in by 5 in the evening. What are we going to do if this never gets better?

Hope this was good enough, made it up as I went along so you shouldn't have to worry about plagiarism. :)))

Two unintended outcomes: 1. Loss of soil fertility. 2. Increase of salinity in under ground water.

In 1960s green revolution brought a drastic change in India's agricultural pattern. Yield per unit of land increase rapidly. It introduced the use of modern machineries, pesticide & weedicides in the crop land, HYV (High yielding variety) seeds etc.

Besides due to green revolution pollution level rise up, salinity level in the ground water increases and even the soil fertility level decreases. Huge and frequent use of pesticides and insecticides promotes soil erosion and crop rotation, multiple cropping system reduces soil fertility level.
