Trash Questions Part II

1. I think that money really became a lot more important to Olivia because she learned what happens to the people who don't have it. She learned that the lack of money creates poverty and that's just the way it is whether you like it or not. I think she also learned how much violence it causes among the greedy rich people and the people who really need money food and shelter.
2. The most liberal newspaper article about Zapanta was "Enough is enough, say students". This article is about college students speaking up about how Zapanta is greedy leader who has millions of dollars lying around is house, and how the best thing that could happen for the country would be a revolution. The most conservative article is "Police Closing in". In this article the writer expresses how professional the police are and how everything is under control. He/She also speaks of Zapanta and how he's already been accused of scandal many times, and how he's prosecuted the critics making the accusations.

3. I think the author would end a book at a cemetery to maybe symbolize the end of the road, aka the end of the book. I also think it touches on the separation of the rich and the poor. The poor in stacks of concrete boxes. The rich in normal graves. Except that at his day, they both are uniting as one for a celebration of their dead family and friends. The scene at the cemetery at the end of the book is one full of mist and mystery. Also with the sadness of the poor being forced to not being able to bury their dead with dignity.
