The seven commandments are a list of rules painted on the side of the barn, which state the laws for the animals about what they can and can’t do. The first commandment to change in the story is the 7th commandment which states that all animals are equal. This commandment changes because some animals are valued over others, and other animals receive food, and others are left to starve. For example the pigs would take the milk and apples for themselves and just tell the other animals that the pigs needed the food in order to keep the pigs in good health because they were the smartest, and would be able to prevent Jones from coming back. “Now if there was one thing that the animals were completely certain of, it was that they did not want Jones
Why spend money that is really needed for other things? Why live uncomfortably? Why be trapped in this hole called a home that belongs to another person? Why not live free and peacefully?

Throughout the years, the definition of a fair trial and punishment has changed. In some ways, our Judicial System has gotten better; however, it has also gotten worse in some cases. Our Justice System no longer has a clear understanding of whether or not capital punishment is fair, constitutional, or should be fully utilized. Some people say that the use of capital punishment is unconstitutional, ethically wrong, and extreme. However, others say that Capital punishment would honor the victims and help console grieving families. It would ensure that the perpetrators would never get the chance to commit such horrendous crimes again. It would serve as a deterrent to other people who might commit the same or similar crimes in the future causing less tragedy and heartbreak.
