So really, do sports have such a positive effect on the American dream. One way sports hinder the American dream is by a household's rate of income. For example, if someone was middle class they are more likely to have a better sports program, then someone that is poor or vice versa for someone…

Cellphones are no longer a luxury, but rather a necessity, in the world that we live in today. A study conducted by Statistics Canada in 2013 found that 83% of Canadian households had at least one active cellphone (Ng).

Currently as an air traffic controller at the Tyndall Air Force Base, my job requires me to abide by many rules set by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). During work there are over 100+ rules that I must abide by every day, or it might hinder the safety of passengers and pilots on the plane flying through the airspace I control.
