Why do people conform?
Dear Reader, The main point of my paper is to show the underlining reasons as to why people confirm to different forms of government structures, democracy and authoritarian, based on their economic background. I attempt to do this by working backwards, first I show why they would revolt or protest, and then I extrapolate the reasons why they followed the regime in the first place. Before reading my paper, my readers probably think that each class supports the government for money and survival. However, after reading my paper, my readers will think that the reasons for support are become more self-serving than basic human rights as a person climbs the economic ladder. I believe a strength of my paper is the idea is engaging and the evidence is there to support it. However, I did struggle with presenting my information in a more concise manner. As I wrote my paper I realized that there were a variety of ways that I could have structured the paper. The structure of my paper convolutes my thesis, but I do believe the general idea is there. A stronger structure and a more concise thesis would benefit my paper greatly. Do to a weak thesis, I had trouble writing my conclusion, I would like for my reader to maybe suggest some ideas as to how I can bring all of my ideas together to make a greater statement.
Thank you,

There are three distinct groups that society is broken up into based on economics: lower class, middle-class, and upper class. The lower class are generally filled with the manual laborers or the uneducated; the middle class is filled with varying ranking military officials; while the upper class is filled with politicians or businessmen. These economic groups contain a wider variety of people and are interchangeable depending on the country and the political structure. However, each economic group, although ruled under the same government
