philosophy ethics argumentative essay
In writing this essay, you must respond to the topic question (which I am going to prove below) with a clearly stated thesis, which you defend with arguments based on the ethical theories discussed in class. This paper must be 1200 words minimum about 5 pages ‘wish,’ double spaced. Your essay should contain at least three outside sources that are properly cited in MLA style. (By ‘outside source’, I mean some book or article other than the Sandel text or our readings from class.) Plagiarized papers will receive a zero.

(If you decide to use a source below make sure to at least find two other academic scholarly source, books, journals, etc).
