The first prompt has to do with competition. Some people argue that competition is a good thing…it is a motivator – it helps one reach goals – it builds strong character among some things. There are people such as Thorstein Veblen in his work, The Theory of the Leisure Class, who argues that humans innately are competitive. He feels we are not satisfied unless we have more than another or perform better than someone else.
Then, there are those who argue that competition is NOT A GOOD THING. They have many reasons for this viewpoint.
After considering both positions, write a thoughtful essay about competition. How do you feel about competition? Is it a positive or a negative? Why? Develop and support your points.
