I have to write a paper on what I believe economic justice to be and for the life of me I can't figure anything good to use. What do you guys think would be good subtopics to inculde and talk about. Let me know please! Thanks.
And your opinions don't make things better....GRGT1994 said:Why does the nation's youth need to be afflicted with these liberal zealots? You realize that "economic justice" is a looney left code word, and your teacher is a nut job for coming up with this assignment.
My advice is that you either write a brilliant paper, or just knuckle under to what the idiot wants and write about some anti-globalization drivel crap. But chances are, no matter how brilliant your writing is, you won't get a good grade unless you pander to your teacher's politics.
Where did I suggest that?Joes95GT said:Go ahead and write a paper off topic, bashing the "liberal zealots" and see where it gets you.
I never suggested writing an off topic liberal bashing paper. I suggested either pander or write a brilliant paper. That's the only way to win here. If you pander to a zealot, they will think you smart because you come to the same conclusions they do. But if your paper disagrees with the mindless wanderings of a true zealot, it better be brilliantly reasoned, constructed and written so there is no choice but to grade accordingly (highly, that is).Joes95GT said:. . . To appease your meaningless personal political agenda that means nothing to the people reading your paper.
I don't remember writing that?Joes95GT said:"Don't write the paper because it's a looney 'left' idea."
What does all that mean? See my first comment above for how I tried to help (by identifying the spin inherent in the assignment). I'm not spinning the concept of economic justice - the lib's have already done that.Joes95GT said:Have you ever thought of broadening your horizons, buddy? Why don't you put your 'looney' right spin on this 'left' idea? That would actually be helpful for the kid - not your nonsensical ramblings that did dog **** for him.
Now this is good advice. I don't know that it will yield 10 pages (you did it in 2 lines), but if I were cornered with this "assignment" then your suggestion is probably right where I would go.Joes95GT said:. . . an idea of economic justice would be paying people what they deserve [sic] - especially teachers and police officers. That right there is enough for 10 pages, but I'm not quite sure that fits the idea of "Economic Justice". Good luck.
There are at least a few different ways I could think you could take this (legitimately - without playing this as a political hot potato). But first, what is the class that this comes from? And second, what other subjects have you covered in the course up to this point?IEatRiceGT said:he didn't define it...that my whole problem, trying to come up with good subpoints is actually really difficult when you have to define the term all by yourself
Joes95GT said:And your opinions don't make things better....
You do realize that this guy, regardless of opinion, is the teacher whether you or anyone else likes it or not. Go ahead and write a paper off topic, bashing the "liberal zealots" and see where it gets you. Abso-****ing-loutely nowhere. And, you did it (wrote the paper) all for....what? To appease your meaningless personal political agenda that means nothing to the people reading your paper.
May I add, too, that your ridiculous political attack is just as frivolous as you make this assignment out to be. "Don't write the paper because it's a looney 'left' idea." Have you ever thought of broadening your horizons, buddy? Why don't you put your 'looney' right spin on this 'left' idea? That would actually be helpful for the kid - not your nonsensical ramblings that did dog **** for him.

IEatRice - I'm pretty brain dead, but an idea of economic justice would be paying people what they deserve - especially teachers and police officers. That right there is enough for 10 pages, but I'm not quite sure that fits the idea of "Economic Justice". Good luck.

Who's complaining? I called a spade a spade. If that's complaining, then whatever. And how is your comment any different that what you try to mock?Grn92LX said:Well said bro!
I love how all these neocon nut jobs complain on the internet like it actually does something
