Summary: According to Mary Elizabeth Williams she talkin about how when she went to go buy something is was 2 dollors The heads up had come Thursday via one of the bargain blogs I regularly peruse, the notice that Old Navy was practically giving away camisoles for $2.  Minutes later, the news broke that Amazon was launching a $139 Kindle, well under half its original cost.




Thesis: i think that its a good thing when things are cheap cause they have sertain days when they lower there prices.




Reason 1: is that if i dont have the money for an ideam i can get if for cheap
Example: black friday they lower there prices on there idems and u can get them for good deals.

       The article I read talks about fast food and how young teens are eating fast food alot and its not good for them. Most fast food companies publicly own and sprinkled in to the stocks porfolius of many striving Americans. One of every four hamburgers sold by the good foilks at McDonals. For example is now purchased by inner city consrumer who disproporntionately are young black men.

       It was the poor and thier increasing need for cheap meals consumed twice outside the home that fueled the development of what may well be the most important fast food innovation of the past twenty years. I think the author had some good ideas in the article because he started some trueth about fast food and how most kids are consuming fast food twice a day and thats not good at all.

        I feel like teens shouldn't eat fast food alot because its not healthy and people don't know how much fat sugar and salt is in there food. For example the total caloric content three of the meals has been jacked up from 680 calories to more then 1,340 calories. According to the very generous U.S dietary guidelines , 1,340 calories represent more than half of a teenagers recommended daily caloric consumption and the added calories themselves are poor protien and rich fat and carbohydrate.
