This is intended to help not only future generations but also the environment.
Modernization theory claims that in the past, the entire world was poor and that technological change, especially the industrial revolution, enhanced human productivity and raised living standards in many nations.( Macionis page 546).

Many times we judge them without knowing their history or what happened to their life.
As postmodernist critics see it, however, the twentieth century was unsuccessful in solving social problems such as poverty. (Macionis page 546).

Even when they have the right to express  and be free and do whatever they want to do with their life, society makes fun of them.
Most people in modern societies have the privacy and freedom to express their individuality.( Macionis page, 542).

Because instead of progressing as a society they continue to rob the poor.
But class society theory maintenance that elites are still with us, not as the nobles of an earlier era, but in the form of capitalist millionaires. (Macionis page, 541).

I chose this photo since it shows how companies start from scratch but at the same time when the bonds of trust with their staff are broken there tend to be misunderstandings.
A mass society in which
prosperity an expanding bureaucracy have weakened traditional social ties ( Macionis page, 539).

Armed protesters against Covid-19 lockdown at Michigan capitol. 
People were protesting for the stay home to stop. Since it is affecting your economy and ironically your mental health. Many of these people are followers of President Trump, who applauded them for this type of march. One type of collective behavior is the crowd, which is a temporary gathering of people who share a common focus of attention and who influence one another.( Macionis page, 529).

On March 9, 2020 in Mexico, women protested. They said that no woman would use public transportation, go to work, and go to restaurants. This protest took place since the government does not take care of women as there are more and more femicides.
"Nothing is constant expect death and taxes." (Macionis page,527).
