In the documentary Roger and Me Michael Moore trys to demonstrate a lot of loss and misfortune in the town of Flint, Michigan. He does this by showing what it is like when the people of Flint lose wat the town would call a prize posession. The town could see it that way because it was one of their main money making sources.
In the online journal it reads that the United States encountered a large misfortune as well dealing with money issue, only this time it affected millions more people. The author of this journal explained the losses, but also the recovery and made it sound a bit more optomistic to the reader.
Their perspectives put together lead the reader to believe that all it takes is one drastic change in a lifestyle or in the case location, for things to become surreal and abnormal. When putting these together the reader can start to grasp the idea and the theory that almost any place with out the right recources and money has a great chance of falling under. In both pieces it does mention the people and the administration of them both striving to mediate the situation, because it is all they know to do.

Great post Tiffany. You really show how a new, clear idea can arise out of the two texts. What would this paper look like if you were to write it? I think it would be very interesting to show how so much of life and community depends upon employment stability. When we're in good times here in the USA, and jobs are flowing, people forget how lucky we are to live in a country where this type of stability and prosperity exists at all.
