Chapter 31 - yo..yo..
The beginning of the chapter is that marija is stil laddicted to morphine and she remains a prostitute and wants to still be one for the resto f her life whihc is really sad because i dont think anyone has ot go through that buti guess if you have to do it or die thats acceptable but still... Jurgis is with a magazine editor and agrees to listen to his proponents of movement and Jurgis discusses the unsanitary conditons the workers are in and the meat packing. Nicolas, a fierce socialist explains that the movement wishes to enact public ownership of the means of production and that no worker should be working countless hours to just survive in the jungle and he should work 2 hours a day and devote the rest to personal interest.

Chapter 27 and twinty eight
Chapter 27:
Well to start off Jurgis is a begger again which is very sad and not cool D: and he dosent have a job and its very hard to get one again. What is sad is that he should of just stayed in his old job it was alot better then begging on the streets. I also liked the part when the lady kicked him haha it kept me from falling asleep i guess haha. Whats sad is that he wants to go see his family but the police take him and he can only talk to them for a little bit and that was sad to me :( and jurgis goes back to jail
Chapter 28:
I thought it was dandy when Jurgis gets a false identity and no one knows that he beat up conner. Its sad to see Jurgis on the streets again because he once had a wonderful place to stay and be but now he lost it all and he lives in the cold streets. Its cool to see jurgis talkign about the horrible capitalists and teaching people their bad and to shut them down!
My summary of all the chapters:
I thought that these two chapters wereh eartbreaking for me because just the fact that Jurgis is on the streets again when he had a wonderful place to stay and be and he blew it by going back to jail and how he can talk to his family for only a few minutes

Chapter 26 reaction..Thing..Yea...........
Well first off the unions went on strike which i guess is a good thing? I have no idea.. Then jurgis is like king of death beds haha and i guess thats awesome i mean if your a boss and making major cash then thats a plus haha The price of the meat sky rocketed whic his bad for people wanting meat and thats like the only thing they can eat. Jurgis came to face Phil again and again Jurgis beats the man and runs away. I like how Jurgis meets Conner again. Jurgis gets bail and gets it lowered it to 300$ and thats said becauswe of the moneys he making and he goes back and has to give up his money. So all in all this chapter fluctuated between good and bad because of the working Jurgis is doing and how he went to jail!

Chapters 23-26 lololololol
In these chapters i read i learned that Jurgis moves to Chicago and then finds a job in underground tunnels or something like that haha and yes Jurgis is still spending money for booze and stuff like that. Jurgis gets injuried while doing this job and that dosent suprise me since this guy likes to get hurt a alot in the last few chapters haha and ends up spending christmas injuried and sadly with no family pretty much :( he also becomes a hobo and has to fight for stuff like food and territories. Jurgis meets this guy named Freddie and he helps him by making him a huge dinner for himself..Lucky! Freddie also gave Jurgis 100$ and he tries to get change but cant and he goes to some place to try and he goes to the bar and he beats up the bartender for not giving correct change and he goes back to jail for 10 days plus costs. Jurgis joins this underground thing and becomes rich haha and thats it! :D
