    unlikely to end anytime soon. Men also continue to dominate the military. It was only within the last week that the Defense Department decided to open all combat positions to women, and this policy won’t be enforced until January. In August, for the first time in history, two female soldiers graduated from Army Ranger School. It is much harder for women to meet the standards for these elite positions due to having smaller height and weight, and larger hips compared to men (Martin 2015).

    far more profitable than an honest one. Although laws about murder may not be as serious as a laws about embezzlement, the same idea applies here. Without businesses having a standard that they must adhere to, it would be far easier and more profitable to live a life of corruption.
