Which of the following statements is true about supply-side economics?

       a.  The main change made by the tax laws of 1981 and 1986 was to 

            increase marginal tax rates in order to balance the budget

       b.  The Laffer Curve says that, if marginal tax rates fall, tax

            revenues will rise, and the budget deficit will decrease

If the tax laws of 1981 and 1986 had had their intended effect, consumption would have

risen, causing an increase in both real GDP and in the price level

paper about Police brutality

/in /by

I don’t know how to handle this Writing question and need guidance.

paper about Police brutality

Think of this as a Part B to your persuasive paper, except that this time you’re researching a cause you disagree with.

You will give a 4-7 minute speech about your research- choosing either a persuasive speech based on your previous paper, or an informational speech based on this assignment- delivered in class on Wednesday, 26 February.

This paper is an opportunity for you to research a controversial subject- defined here as having more than one clearly identifiable argument- but you will research the side you disagree with.

Don’t argue, don’t try to persuade, only seek to understand.

There are a broad range of subjects to choose from but, by definition, conflict as at least two sides. Your informational paper must do at least three things:

  1. Identify the issue
  2. Identify the two, or more, conflicting perspectives on the issue.
  3. Describe without advocating or condemning the side you disagree with.
  4. cite a minimum of two sources
  5. upload your paper here as a PDF by 24February.

Rather than a conventional research paper, we’re going to use a corporate memo structure called BLUF (Bottom Line Up Front). Imagine that you are a communication adviser to some sort boss who is very interested to learn about these issues, but is too busy to do the research personally. They’ve entrusted you to give them a very clear understanding of this issue- and to suggest how they should feel about the subject.

The BLUF format is essentially the email you would send your boss at the end of this assignment.

An example, say I chose the Sovereign Citizenship movement, would be:

BLUF: The Sovereign Citizenship movement advocates that Americans should not have to pay taxes, among other freedoms that run counter to the ideas of the US judicial system. [limit yourself to one sentence and do not advocate]

Background: Here, I would explain the background, based on research, of where the Sovereign Citizenship movement came from.

Conflict: In this paragraph, I would briefly describe the side that I am researching, without advocating. For example, maybe the US Court System has historically struck down challenges from the Sovereign Citizenship movement. Find a spokesperson and cite research to explain this perspective.

Belief #1: Give us facts about the movement you disagree with- without advocating.

Belief #2: Give us facts about the movement you disagree with- without advocating.

Belief #3: Give us facts about the movement you disagree with- without advocating.

Conclusion: This is the closing 3-5 paragraphs that summarize what your boss should know about this controversial topic.

References: Cite a minimum of two credible sources who discuss this issue.

Students will give a 4-7 minute speech on their topic on 26 February.
