The lower class, on the other hand, does not make the same kind of money ...

PMS- as a defense

According to the various cases described where women turned excessively violent and killed people in a rage, their ascribed behavior has been linked with PMS as a trigger which led to these incidents. PMS is experienced by women before and during menstruation due to the hormonal changes in this time period. It can lead to depression, anxiety and when situations seem unbearable, women are believed to turn excessively aggressive and violent. In my opinion, PMS is not enough to be credited as a major or ultimate reason of why women can become aggressive, violent and murderous at a distressing ...

The Fallacy of Microfinance Microfinance has been billed by many as a solution to the persistent problem of poverty. This is as result of the fact that it has been hailed to create and expand micro-enterprises and in the process improving the socio-economic situations of those that own the micro-enterprises, who generally tend to be women. However, according to Banerjee, Duflo, Glennerster, & Kinnan (2014), microfinance does not necessarily lead to people rising out of poverty. The argument held by Banerjee, Duflo, Glennerster, & Kinnan (2014) gives credence to the apprehensions some have had about the romanticized stories on microfinance. I ...

Police officers are responsible for keeping peace in the country.
