Affirmative Action - History
.... Ph.D.s for every American college or university (Sowell). Therefore, Duke University's policy would force them to hire faculty that are not as qualified, due to a shortage of black Ph.D.s, as their white counterparts. The hiring of unskilled workers is also detrimental to businesses as well. The primary purpose of a business is to make money for the employer, as well as the employees. The hiring of unqualified employees is harmful to the business's production. When employees cannot perform their specifi .....

Against Capital Punishment
.... the death and destruction of WWII personally. Some think that the United States should have followed Europe’s lead and abolished capital punishment; some think it never should.
The truth of the matter is, the United States should cease the use of capital punishment in both federal and state prisons. Capital punishment is immoral and unethical; it degrades society, and lowers the value of a human life. It does not deter murder, it is not economically efficient, and its effects are irreversible. There i .....

Alcohol has widespread effects on the brain. The use of alcohol, however, eventually produces depression and confusion. In chronic cases, alcoholism can lead to mental disturbances. Alcohol can also cause milder problems, including headaches (especially after drinking red wine). Except in severe cases, the damage is not permanent and abstinence nearly always leads to recovery of .....

All Public Schools Are Not Cre
.... communities can afford to pay more per student than poorer communities; consequently, the disparity in wealth affects the quality of education received.
Due to the fact that rich communities provide their local school district with more capitol than poorer communities it is my belief that local taxes should no longer fund education. Funding should come from the federal government. This would allow for all school districts across the nation to be equally funded. Curriculum decisions should be made on .....

American Democracy
.... When some of us go to the ballot box we remember certain commercials either on the television or radio. And nine times out of ten, we remember the negative commercials over the positive.
The campaigns are suppose to educate us and negative campaigns is not a good way to do that. The positive campaigns are the ones that should educate us. Positive campaigns promote “the will of the people.” The “will of the people” want trust, security, someone they can relate to. But with positive campaigns there is a .....

Analysis Of An Essay On Aborti
.... you of how you were abused. This is one way that I think is acceptable to have an abortion. To have an abortion because you are not responsible enough to use protection, that is you own ignorance. You should be mature enough to handle your own responsibility. It is not the fault of the fetus you are killing that should have to pay for your ignorance. Not only are you killing a living being, you are also effecting your own body as well. I have a friend, 21, that has already had four abortions. She does n .....

Analysis Of Gangs
.... during this period of time. Many shows on television today are extremely violent and are often shown this from a gang's perspective. A normal adult can see that this is showing how foully that gangs are living. However, to a child this portrays a violent gang existence as acceptable. 'The Ends Justifies the Means' mentality is also taught through many shows where the "goody guy" captures the "bad guy" through violence and is then being commended. A young child sees this a perfectly acceptable becau .....

Animal Cruelty Leads To Human

online petition to put a cat’s killers to justice with maximum sentence. This is the article I
found on this brutal torture of an innocent creature.
***WARNING*** (graphic details)
“On October 10, 1999, a beautiful female cat came willingly to the four boys who
stopped on the side of the road and called to her. Her trust was rewarded by unthinkable
terror and cruelty - being used as a tug-of-war toy until the boys heard something "pop",
having her legs broken, being jumped up and down .....

Animal Experimentation

This test was developed in 1927 and the testing continues until at least fifty percent of the animals die. Like eye irritant tests, lethal dose tests are unreliable and have too many variables to have an accurate result.
Alternatives to cosmetic testing are far less expensive and more accurate. Animals obviously have different biological syste .....

Children that grow up in a good atmosphere tend to have a better understanding of life and respect the life's of others. Children would also have a better mean of recreation, for example hunting, and for a means of protection from criminal acts. On the other hand, the ones who grow up in difficult homes that have unaffectionate parents tend to turn to crime as a way out or th .....

Appreciation Of Art And Scienc

It was a very involved, tedious process that required a lot of patience, hard work, and dedication . But it was completed and it could not have been completed without the use of scientific and mathematical concepts and techniques.
Finally, there is art and science in theater and its production. The performers on stage wear costumes. These costumes are measured, cut, sewn, designed, and fitted for the .....

The latter cage, however, although similar in every other respect to the shock cage, contained a small area where the experimenters could administer no shock. Seligman observed that while the dogs in the latter cage learned to run to the nonelectrified area after a series of shocks, the dogs in the shock cage gave up .....

In addition, one of the more controversial points of he plan involves a waiver system whereby parents who prefer “native-language” instruction for their children can request that the children be removed from the English-immersion classes. The request will be granted if they can find parents of twenty of more children on the same school who want the same thing. If they can not find enough parents, they are allowed to transfer to another school that will provide it.
