Stereotypes Against Hispanics Throughout time most Latin Americans have been seen as an undereducated and naïve race. For instance the type of job an American citizen would have wouldn’t be recommended for a Hispanic‚ because society has adjusted to them only doing the jobs they are good at. These so called “good” jobs are actually low-wage jobs that in an economy like the one today would not be able to support a family.

Abortion has been around since ancient times. It’s an endlessly debatable subject and everybody has their own opinion. I feel that whatever your beliefs every woman should have the right to abortion.

The Case Against Tipping Michael Lewis’ essay‚ “The Case Against Tipping”‚ is an arguable topic that can really get you thinking. Ever wonder why people tip? It is an incentive to do so or it is out of kindness of their heart. After reading Lewis’ essay‚ I have to say that he has never had experience working a job that relies heavily on tips for a salary. To have such a bitter attitude towards waiters or coffee shop workers shows me that Michael Lewis is not empathetic simply because he has never
