My favorite blog post of this year is my most recent one: "Get Rich Quick". It is my favorite blog post because the research I did before writing the blog post was really interesting to me. It was always difficult to find something to write about each week that interested me. An interest in the topic also made it a better blog post than the others I have written.
I also enjoyed looking at the subject of American greed from different angles. American Studies has taught me to look at the way things are constructed. I used this knowledge to view the episode of American Greed. I noticed how the narrator always portrayed the people who were scammed as victims and innocent. However, these people had the same ideas as the scammers just to a lesser degree. It seemed everyone just wanted to get rich quick.
