I agree that money does buy happiness. You have the ability to buy what ever you want. Also the more money you have the power you are capable of having. Although there are some disadvantages to having lots of money, like ruining relationships with loved ones. If you had the money then it wouldn't be a problem. For many families money is always in issue, it brings lots of stress on their lives. It makes them miss time with their family because they are working to be able to live in their house. On the other hand everyone that doesnt have to worry about that is spending time with their family which then brings happiness into their lives.

World War 1 Propaganda in America

     Propaganda was used sometimes to persuade americans into joining or helping the U.S army. 

These posters encouraged people at home to save food so that it would be sent to the soldiers. People in the U.S would eat or not eat specific foods on certain days so that the troops would be able to eat more. This would have been effective because it makes the people at home think that they would have a better chance to win if they save food. Because America is so "fat", if the poster was created today it would say "the soldiers could use a couple of your pounds." 

These posters would try and persuade men to join the army. The more people that joined the stronger the army would be. This would be an effective poster because it makes men feel like they owe something to the U.S and that something would be joining the war. If the poster was made now it would say something like "We've been fighting for your safety now come fight fight for your loved ones."
