Letter to Macbeth;


Greetings Macbeth, 

I am here to inform you about your disorders that can be diagnosed and solutions to help you. Your personality disorder results that you are very high in Schizotypal and high in Paranoid. Schizotypal is a characterized by odd forms of thinking and this disorder often seeks isolation from others. You often believe to have extra sensory ability to think that unrelated events relate to them in some important way and generally engage in eccentric behaviors. Also, you have difficulty in concentrating for long periods of time and have odd beliefs or magical thinking. I recommend that you should relax more and not think so much about what is going on. Your thoughts and magical beliefs should stop, maybe engage in activates to get your mind off things or spend time with your Lady Macbeth somewhere. Paranoid personality disorder is characterized by a distrust of others and a constant suspicion that people around you have sinister motives. This disorder often tends to be quick in challenging the loyalties of friends and loved ones and often appear cold and distant. They usually shift blame to other people and tend to carry long grudges. Some solutions that I suggest is to communicate with others easily and don’t jump into conclusions too easily. You should talk to Lady Macbeth more about your problems and solve it together instead of holding grudges with others. With that said, I hope that helped you solve your disorders quickly and also learned something off of this report. Have a wonderful evening.

Sincerely,

Dr. Li

How do the Democratic and Republican positions on the “fiscal cliff” differ?

      According to the Democrats and Republicans differ because of their opinion on how they could create a solution to the "fiscal cliff". Republicans want to extend the tax cut equally for all Americans and Democrats wants to extend the tax cuts for some people but not for others. From one specific source, it states that "Obama wants to freeze tax rates for most Americans while allowing them to rise as high as 39.6 percent for the wealthiest people — defined as earning over $250,000 per year." and "Republicans, meanwhile, do not want to raise taxes on anyone. But in the wake of their electoral defeat last month, they have acknowledged that the wealthy will have to pay more." Therefore, two parties have their differences on the fiscal cliff, but are still disputing whether one is better than the other. 
The Google search helped my research question a lot because of how specific the question is. It made my research much easier with the search tools because I don't have to look at all of the unnecessary websites. Instead, I could search for the main question I'm trying to answer. The filter "search tool” and clicking past week helped me narrow down my search because I was able to view websites that were updated within the past week. Also, with the strategy of clicking "News" I was able to look at the "Fiscal Cliff" news that was most recent and sourced with current updates. Surprisingly, all of the strategies were new to me, they helped me a big chunk of this research and I will continue using the strategies that I used in the later future when I am researching other topics.
