Why did the "Big Three" disagree about the best course of action to take at the peace conference? One of the main thoughts was that it would have been best to place Germany under extreme economic pressure, which would have damaged the country more than if the Allies waged full-scale war against them.

Explanation:

The Big Three had conflicting goals. Wilson was an idealist, and he believed his Fourteen Points was the best course of action. France and Britain believed he was too naive. France had suffered the most - both in loss of life and property damage - and it wanted Germany to pay and to be weak. Britain wanted a more moderate settlement but also wanted Germany's colonies.

Explanation:

panem is a communist totalitarian dictatorship where all the resources and how they are allocated belongs to the capitol. the districts exist only to provide goods and services for the capital and most of the citizens live in poverty. it is a police state where the "peacekeepers" use force and threats to keep the people under control. dissent is outlawed and those who disobey the law are executed, flogged, or turned into avoxes. the games are another means in which the ruling elite in the capitol exert their power over the districts. when reading the books i drew parallels between panem and the soviet union and north korea. in no way is panem capitalist. the people in the capitol are wealthy but the majority of them are involved in the government somehow. it was the same way in the former soviet union where bigwigs in the communist party and high ranking government officials were given access to goods, services, medical treatments not available to the general public. if you think panem has a capitalist economy you need to brush up on your economics.  

citizens were able to charge more for their goods and services
