California Proposition 2

An overwhelming majority of hens is limited in the conventional cages, where they each can share only 67 square inches of the cage space.2 67 square inches cannot even compare with a piece of letter-size paper which takes up about 93.5 square inches. Such tiny space is not enough for the hens to spread their wings, let alone make nests or perch. Hence, the conventional battery cage system violates animal welfare. Unlike the conventional battery cage system, the cage-free system provides more space for hens, where they are able to walk around within a certain range, to spread their wings, to nest and perch. Freedom of such activities improves the mood and health of hens, and thus increases their quality of life. John Mill’s Greatest Happiness Principle states that “Actions are right in proportion as they tend to promote happiness, wrong as they tend to produce the reverse of happiness…

his 18 propositions, his argument stays strong through his novel. In each proposition, Howard discusses the struggle within our government that can be easily fixed if government was not an automatic system, but rather a system that was governed by the people. Human responsibility could better improve government programs, such as with the example of the nursing home, or the tree in a lake, or the drowning man. It isn’t complicated; the government cannot act as its own body, because it is not…

If someone wants my notes, I wanted to show that I am organized person from small things to a big thing. It is not just showing my…

and less stress for teachers (Illig, “Literature Review”). The California Teachers Association has reported that due to its positive effect the popularity of class size reduction is “widely popular with parents and school staff” with many reporting improvement in classroom learning environments and working condition for teachers (CTA, “Research: Class Size Does Matter”).

However, he argues that beliefs based upon insufficient evidence are wrong regardless of how trivial they seem. Beliefs shape our actions, and we ought not act based on unjustified beliefs. But belief in unquestioned claims trivializes the faculty of belief. If we trivialize the importance of justifying beliefs, we are more likely to end up acting based on unfounded beliefs at some point. Thus, we ought never believe things. For similar reasons, the duty to question and justify beliefs extends…

that the transparency account does support epistemically immediate. Summary: Quassim Cassam “argues that the transparency account can’t explain how knowledge of our own beliefs can be epistemically immediate”. The notion of transparency given by Richard Moran is the “idea a person answers the question whether he believes that P in the same way he would address himself to the question whether P itself”(Cassam 2). In which, the question about ‘Do you believe that P? can be transparent to the…

Rousseau discusses the differences between truths that are owed, which is calls general truths, and truths that are not owed, which he calls particular truths. In addition to this, he also discusses the differences between fictions and lies. Rousseau mentions that justice is to give what to each what is owed, and he states that justice and truth are synonymous. For the most…

The truth can be a hard thing to come by when you are dealing with any type of person. In “Theme for English B,” by Langston Hughes, the topic of truth is what lays the foundation down for his poem. Hughes is most likely the speaker in this poem giving the view of an entire group, which would be the colored student population. The poem starts off by sharing an assignment the instructor gave the speaker for their class. The instructor informs the class that if they let their literary work…
