Is the commercialization of our education system a good idea?
I don't feel like the commercialization of our education system is any worse than the introduction of religion is. When schools teach one religion, to me that's offensive because not everyone believes the same thing and that's the great part of being American!

Research Paper
Upon reviewing my assigned variable and researching it further, I have found interesting facts and methods of calculating price. The process is a little overwhelming, but with certain resources, it can be made a lot easier to understand as well as to make a possibility.

Is price the contributing factor for Ford or is there some other reason that the Focus came out on top?
Im not sure as to why the Focus came out on top, but it could be in part to an extensive marketing plan behind it. By making this model seem too good to be true, it will entice new and old buyers alike to take part in the grand ol' sport of consumerism.

I came across an article discussing the falling price of Gold. this commodity is expensive because it doesn't tarnish as quickly as other materials, conducts better and has been made popular in the social culture.
it's fascinating to me that such an valuable resource can diminish so rapidly due to inflation. How will this impact our nations currency?

What else can foreign auto makers do to regain the young car buyer?
I think that young car buyers are looking to support their country and to regain some nostalgia from the America that no longer exists. Foreign car companies could try to reintroduce retro looking vehicles to entice the need to go back in history. Another idea is that maybe foreign car companies could continue to cut prices and offer more to compete against national cars.

Youtube and Marketing
Watch most any Youtube video, and you will most likely end up waiting through at least 5 seconds of an advertisement before your video plays. This commercial trap is not only annoying, but when you have to wait for the commercial to buffer, it's even worse!

When you buy stuff, do you follow the crowd like a sheep, and buy what everyone else does?
When I make purchases, I tend to buy things that will make me not only blend in with the "social class" that I want to blend into, but I also buy clothing and accessories that make me feel good about myself. It's weird how when we are growing up we are taught to be ourselves and to accept those who are different, but as we get older, we ostracize those who embark upon their own journeys. I buy to play it safe and to fit in with the world around me.
