Activity 5.3a –
Research and Debate

Graded Assignment – 100 points

The debate questions
for Week 5 are:

PRO: A business owner should be able to hire or fire anyone without
interference from the government.
CON: A business owner should NOT be able to hire or fire anyone
without interference from the government.

Here is what you need to do.

1. Do some brief research on the topic of
government control over hiring and firing. What determines whether or not the
government should interfere?

2. Write a brief position paper (250-500 words)
setting out your argument (either the PRO or the CON side). Your argument must
be supported by something more than just your opinion. Use facts from credible
sources to make your points. The position paper must comply with APA
guidelines, including grammar, punctuation, spelling, textual citations, and
reference citations.

3. Use the Activity 5.3a assignment link to upload
your paper.
