Hello. This question is about "Modest Proposal"

hunger, clothing, money/economy, overpopulation.

Explanation:

The modest Proposal was a text written by Jonathan Swift as a proposal to end the growing number of poor children on the streets begging or getting involved in activities they shouldn't have.

Swift claimed that the rich and politicians were very uncomfortable with this scenario, but did nothing to control poverty and help these children. So he proposed that a way to end this problem and thus decrease hunger, clothing, money / economy and overpopulation, would be for the poor to sell their children to the rich so that they could serve as food for the rich and their skins to make clothes.

Swift wrote this essay in a satirical way to show how the hypocrisy of the rich stimulated social problems and their hypocrisy would have to solve those problems.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
