A Message to Garcia is a short story about how people are not good. People only do things when it benefits them, for physical violence, or they are getting threatened. It says People will always make excuses to try and get out of what they are told to do. If it does look like they are doing something, as soon as the boss turns their back, they will be lazy and not do what they are told. The author proceeds to say there are some good people out there but they are very rare, and near impossible to find. This short story was written in the 1800 and is still read and used today. It still applies to all the people that live in our world today. It was spread throughout the whole world and was printed in 37 different languages. Nowadays it is most popularly used in the military as slang for taking initiative.
