"nowadays people know the price of everything, and the value of nothing."
- oscar wilde, the picture of dorian grey
do you think this is true of today? has this changed since oscar wilde wrote it in 1890?
if so, what changed? provide examples to support your position

Explanation:yes of course this is true today. People would pay lot of money on a college education but don’t know the value of their education.

It is absolutely true of today.

Explanation:

Wilde´s sentence is more relevant today than it was so many years ago. Many of the criticisms that can be directed against a free market economy is that people are said to enjoy the possibility to engage in legal free enterprises regardless of the consequences, like the impact they have on the environment, the living conditions of the workers, or the strain on poor nations. Other, more specific examples, would be the hiring of human wombs in Eastern Europe by rich Europeans: the latter know the price that must be paid for a mother-for-rent though they know not the value of human life and dignity.  

the correct answer is d. in john paston's letter written friday, 14, 1476, he expresses his fear that he may have to go to war.

indeed, although the black death was ravaging europe, the pastons were relatively safe from it due to their social status as they were part of the landed gentry. it is clear that the vast majority of the victims of the pandemic were the poor. the reason why he is weary of having to go to war is because at the particular time england was also devastated by the war of the roses and paston, being a courtesan was inevitably involved.
