After reading Up Against Walmart by Karen Olsson on pages 606-618 and Progressive Wal-Mart, Really by Sebastian Mallaby on pages 620-623, you will write a three-page argument essay (NOT A SUMMARY RESPONSE). It should be written in MLA format with a Works Cited page. I encourage you to use outside evidence from online or print books newspapers, magazines, journals, and government (.gov) and educational (.edu) websites if you need additional information. You may read the Wikipedia to familiarize yourself with the topic, but you cannot cite it as a source in your essay.
Prompt: Some believe that the Wal-Mart Corporation has showered abundance on America and the world by providing jobs and inexpensive goods, both of which allow the poor to have a higher standard of living, while opponents argue that Wal-Mart is a corporate behemoth that abuses its workers and damages the economy.
So, is Wal-Mart, ultimately, a positive or a negative force in America? Why? In what ways? The answer to this question is your thesis.
OR
Is there a middle ground between Ollson and Mallaby’s positions? How can each side compromise their positions to provide a solution that will give both sides some of what they want? How can this compromise be accomplished? The answer to this question is your thesis.
