<p>okay so basically, we're supposed to choose a "problem" in the world -- have facts, stats, and evidence supporting our "negative" opinion on it, basically a persuasive essay .. </p>
<p>i dont need help on the actual essay but i really have no clue what to do .. i was going to do gene patenting, but i cant find ANY evidence on that at all!</p>
<p>Child soldiers. It writes itself.</p>
<p>The Great Evil that is World of Warcraft.</p>
<p>yeah see i would do that, but my teacher's leaning more towards political/science/environmental issues</p>
<p>human trafficking</p>
<p>The Great Evil that is NetHack.</p>
<p>China's currency pegging.</p>
<p>Global climate change.</p>
<p>Zimbabwe's inflation.</p>
<p>Paradoxes.</p>
<p>o snap...capital punishment..............</p>
<p>internet addiction, especially this site</p>
<p>How about torture as a form of interrogation. Does it violate human rights? Is it justified? That would make an interesting paper. Or you could write about the atrocities in Sudan/ Darfur. Either of those could make for an interesting paper. There is lots of information to be found on each.</p>
<p>whooo i like these ideas .. i'll see whichever one i can find more facts/stats for.</p>
<p>Depending on how biased your teacher has proven/disproven himself to be, I would advise staying away from torture as a form of interroagation, "climate change", or stuff like that</p>
<p>You could write about Pakistani President Musharraf and how his complete "military" takeover is unjust.</p>
