## Description
<section id='description'>
Check if the predicate (second argument) is <dfn>truthy</dfn> on all elements of a collection (first argument).
In other words, you are given an array collection of objects. The predicate <code>pre</code> will be an object property and you need to return <code>true</code> if its value is <code>truthy</code>. Otherwise, return <code>false</code>.
In JavaScript, <code>truthy</code> values are values that translate to <code>true</code> when evaluated in a Boolean context.
Remember, you can access object properties through either dot notation or <code>[]</code> notation.
Remember to use <a href='http://forum.freecodecamp.org/t/how-to-get-help-when-you-are-stuck/19514' target='_blank'>Read-Search-Ask</a> if you get stuck. Try to pair program. Write your own code.

```js
function truthCheck(collection, pre) {
  // Does everyone have one of these?
  return collection.every(function(e) { return e[pre]; });
