Persuasive Writing Intro
The final writing assignment is a persuasive essay about the Minimum Wage. Should it be raised to $15?
What’s the connection between Lies, Truth, Fake News and the Minimum Wage? The question of raising the minimum wage is a hot economic and political topic. Democrats wanted it to be part of the last COVID-19 Relief Bill, but they couldn’t get enough support. Some economists believe it will have positive social and economic effects. Other economists believe it will decrease the number of jobs. Small business owners worry about the cost of covering higher wages. Conservative politicians are usually against a dramatic raise of the minimum wage. There are vocal supporters and opponents of the issue. Discussion relies on statistics and complex economic arguments.
Your task will be to take a stand and find information that supports your arguments. You will be finding information that may be truthful or biased. In sum, you’ll be using the information and skills we have been discussing.
Topic: You will take a firm position on whether the minimum wage should be raised to $15 an hour and identify at least two arguments to convince others of your position on the minimum wage in a four-five-page academic essay that would be appropriate for a course on economics, political science, sociology, or business. To be persuasive, you should also discuss a counter-argument and explain why your arguments are superior or more important.
