After trying to write an informative essay about polyester, it has occurred to me that the argument has two side, and so long as my audience feels as though I am knowledgeable the side that I talk about more becomes the right side. This can often occurs in various arguments as only one side is highlighted in order to procure a specific effect from the audience. Today, what has become largely a joke with the now classic "fake news" is actually an issue as research, experience, and data is twisted to arrive at a specific conclusion. This is not altogether wrong, as there is and always will be two sides, at least, to an argument. It has simply made it important to know your topic.
In video by PragerU, a channel that feels the need to tackle volatile issues, they have a video, The Myth of the Gender Wage Gap, that goes through all necessary factors when looking at the pay discrepancy. Factors can include: the type
of work, time taken off, hours worked, education, and many others. There are many factors that have to be considered when addressing the wage gap. Sense there are so many factors, it is easy to loose crucial information or purposefully leave out research in order to be able to yell louder. In fact, if women are making less for the same job with the same hours of men then would it not make sense that more women would be in the work place as businesses would be able to make more money. Generally speaking, women make the same amount of money for the same work as men do. Stats are fudged or forgotten in order for more sway to be had over public media. In the news today, it is easy to become sidetracked by loud voices and large numbers, and one has to be careful where information is found. I hope all the readers stay knowledgeable and co
nsider more than what is set in front of them.
