While surfing in hawaii barry was thrown by a huge wave that caused his surfboard to hit his head, causing him to temporarily lose consciousness and almost drown. after being revived by a fellow surfer barry reported seeing a light in a tunnel which he felt compelled to enter. he also reported hearing his late grandmother's voice telling him to come towards the light. this experience can be explained as being caused by lack of to the brain?

answer; oxygen to the brain;

panem is a communist totalitarian dictatorship where all the resources and how they are allocated belongs to the capitol. the districts exist only to provide goods and services for the capital and most of the citizens live in poverty. it is a police state where the "peacekeepers" use force and threats to keep the people under control. dissent is outlawed and those who disobey the law are executed, flogged, or turned into avoxes. the games are another means in which the ruling elite in the capitol exert their power over the districts. when reading the books i drew parallels between panem and the soviet union and north korea. in no way is panem capitalist. the people in the capitol are wealthy but the majority of them are involved in the government somehow. it was the same way in the former soviet union where bigwigs in the communist party and high ranking government officials were given access to goods, services, medical treatments not available to the general public. if you think panem has a capitalist economy you need to brush up on your economics.  

states grant a variety of local governments power to meet residents’ needs (source: apex learning). hope this !
