It appears that state and federal government entities do not have strong enough policies in place to strengthen vulnerable communities in today’s economy. Weinstein’s article (2013) details a number of purported cuts to federal programs which disadvantageously affect men of African American and Latino descent.

Louis XIV's economic and political impact on the lower class with that of William and Mary European societies in the late seventeenth century were stratified and hierarchical. Society was viewed as being structured into orders, with each social order fulfilling a particular function in society as a whole, and the entire system being understood as a reflection of a divinely-ordered harmony that pervaded the universe. At the top of this hierarchical
