In a surprise landslide victory, Oliver Twist gained enough votes in both the House and the Senate to become our group’s next official read. Politicians are hesitant to comment on why such a book, which has been a classic for so many years, has only now surfaced as a bi-partisan favorite. The answer is, as I will unfold, a very simple one.
It all started with a Google doc. My fellow group members and I thought we would take advantage of free cloud computing and decided to take our brainstorming/decision making to the internet (i.e. a series of tubes).
After months of intense partisan debate, meeting together a few days later in class, and consulting with a technical expert and national poet laureate (Dr. Burton), we came to the conclusion that not only was reading Oliver Twist the ethical decision, but it was generally the right thing to do.
Key media outlets have questioned what the potential ramifications of such a decision could be. All the White House’s official Press Secretary has been quoted to say is that a critical read and review of Oliver Twist would lead to an “intense and vibrant analysis of the one of the most provocative and life-changing periods of my great-great-great-great grandfather’s time: The Industrial Revolution.”
