Response to Tithes - Janie

I can't really think of anything today that parallels with tithes because the morals in this society have become so twisted and warped. Some believe that tithing is "in the Bible," as Lev says on page 72, but in today's standards, this sounds absolutely absurd. I think that it's really the subtle hints that make this such a dystopian society; of course we know the main one is unwinding but if you look carefully at the words and actions of people, you can really see the characteristics of a true dystopian world.
