The elderly should receive free bus rides. While some people believe they should have to pay like everybody else‚ I strongly support this because they have already served our communities so now the community and society should serve them. The first reason I have to support my opinion is when they were younger they had jobs‚ paid taxes and they shouldn’t have to pay for a bus ride. One example that shows this to be true is the high employment rate back when they were younger. Another detail supporting

In the essay‚ “Work Rules” by William Grieder he talks about what it is like to be an American worker in our society. He poses a question‚ “are Americans really free?” (Greider) This is a tough question to answer‚ what is our definition of free and how is freedom accomplished? Do we have more freedoms than the older generations? What roads have been paved for us and what disadvantages are we facing now? Grieder’s bottom line in this article was that communication is key for a successful business

Why is a professional athlete able to get away with certain crimes that a normal everyday person couldn’t get away with? There isn’t a good enough answer to that question today. Some judges and law enforcement seem to look passed the wrong doing of a professional athlete because of their social status or importance to the league or association. Obviously this is unjust‚ athletes can’t get away with what whatever they want just because of the status they hold. One definition of the judicial system

“There are no shortcuts to any place worth going” (Sills 1). In cross-country and track‚ this is the case because all athletes must exert maximum effort to achieve personal goals. Opponents of running disapprove of the sport‚ as it is simply a form of harsh punishment and does not assist the athletes. A high school coach forces his team to complete 20 hill sprints‚ 20 up-downs‚ two laps around the field‚ and the coach threatens he can kick one out of athletics if he or she does not finish the drills

Being a student athlete should be a privilege‚ a reward; it should always come second‚ after the students’ education. It seems that student athletes get special treatments‚ getting away with having low grades‚ having an extended time to do assignments‚ or even being excused from them. There needs to be a more strict policy in order to be on a high school sports team and to play in games. After all‚ high schools do not require students to participate in team or individual sports. Most high school

The Free Rider Problem The free rider issue has become one of the most serious economic issues today. The free rider is a lazy type person who wants the benefits that others bring in without having to do the work. The free rider typically takes advantage of a public good. Living in a civilized society presents many opportunities for free riding‚ which we have yet to find a way to control. Economists regard the possibility for free riding as a problem for the free market‚ which usually leads
