Answer 2

Okay, I have my definition.
Now I need help with discussing the ideology in the article.

Answer 3

Make sure you have read the article more than once -- probably more than twice!

First you need to identify the primary ideology used in the article. Then find several (preferably 3+) places in the article to use as examples/details that support your identification of the ideology.

Only you can do this.

Answer 4

Okay, here's what I came up with by breaking the argument down:

Prmise 1: All people posses self interest and are dependent on each other.

Premise 2: The top 1% posses a high self interest.

Conclusion: Thus the top 1% are dependent on the other 99%.

Therefore the ideology being discussed involves understanding the concept of self interest properly understood.

Is that correct?
