(Image Source) The value of life is something which people have struggling to decide upon for a very long time. Some people give all life the same value, endeavouring to treat animals and humans with the same level of care. Others, though, will value their own life above all others, and this can lead to big societal challenges which are hard to overcome. When it comes to large organisations, the value which is placed on life becomes a little more obvious. How exactly do the organisations you rely on value your life, though?

Now we live outside the city to be able to afford to work in the city. But it takes time to get there and back each day, with some of us commuting up to an hour, or even more, a day, and that is without taking into consideration any adverse traffic conditions.

Avengers: Endgame is getting all the money, and the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) as a whole has turned into a pop culture juggernaut so huge that if you told my 12-year-old self how big it would eventually be, I’d probably have thought you were drunk and delusional.
