Looking at the job situation with Ramona and her relationship to Next Step, she should not sign the contract. Primarily, it is because the company does not hold its values and behaviors accountable. The corporate culture and the organization environment are a bit shady. Most of the advertisements are make-believe. Next Step uses its financial status and ranks to buy people into the company.

The Antebellum Debate over Slavery, a questionable topic, split the nation and the church into separate entities. Whether Christians believed slavery was morally correct cannot be answered with a simple “yes” or “no”.
