Answer 3

Yes. It is available on demand and supply is outstripping demand.

Answer 4

The phrases or deliberate concepts are gone, in my opinion. What's still there, just as much as ever, is the ocurrance of these types of situations. It happens all the time. Maybe in our rush to look out for number one these days, we don't notice these things happening to others. People who have fallen victim to these situations are not aware that they are in a situation. It takes others to help them see, force them to see. Nobody does this anymore. No one is so involved. People don't realize these concepts affected them until the relationship is over, I'd wager.

Yes.

Yes, they trully did.. As life is getting harder, people nowadays are thinking more on the practical and safe side of the outcome of any of his actuations or decisions. Mind over matter as the heart can sit still when the mind maneuvers.

Answer 9

yah i thenk u are right. cause were learnin in class about the 3 conditions of human existence, labor, work and action. an labor is the biological necessities to stay alive, like breathin, an sleeping, an walking, an having breakfast, an those thengs never end. and work is the manmade world, that we make things and finish making them, objects. and the last is action, which is when men(and women) realize they are a group of individuals, not a group, and not individuals, a group of individuals. and they through the public use speech and action, and action is when u speak with an intention, speak the right words at the right time, liek MLK or  ghandi. action moves others to action, action is a discourse between equals. yah but todays society forgot what action is. we no longer have a public space for individualism. we are expected by society to behave, not to be individuals, cause when we behave we are predictable, safe, but when we are individuals, u cen never predict the outcome of action! cause action is part of our own individual selfs, and a new beggining that other individuals will take on and in turn do something new. schools treat everee one the same, we even have expected behavior the way we talk and walk, and how close we stand together, nothing is individual aneymore, were behaving, not acting. and now humans having eliminated action want to eliminate work too, we dunt wan to werk, were going to become a society of laborers leik on WALL-E. we've forgotten we have souls, we've forgotten that ideas cen exist, if we cent see it, it doesnt exist, if we cent work it, or make it into soemthing it doesnt exist ♥ without labor work and action in balance, we cease to be human.

Answer 10

No, they haven't. But some don't have the guts let them out, or others don't even give those feelings a chance to be felt.

Answer 11
