In the article Girls getting fed up with school dress codes that treat them as distractions by Maureen Downey, it says that a girl was suspended for having blue hair because it was too “distracting”. This shows that dress codes can be unfair because it’s not the student’s fault if another student looks or becomes distracted by them. Instead…

CEOs are the lead of many people in a company. If they were to fail and cause the company to fail then many people would be out of a job. That would be the lives of thousands that would no longer have a steady income and would have to seek another form of employment. Dorman writes that the median pay for the 200 largest publicly traded companies was $15.1 million (2013).
