For Wednesday: Do you know anyone who has been given special privileges based on who they are or who they are related to? If not, can you think of an example in the news? Are special privileges fair? Explain in 3-5 sentences.
See you in class!

Someone who has gotten special privledges is my aunt because her husband is a cop. She had gotten stopped on the highway by cops and she would show them her PBA card which says Policemans Wife on it and the cops let her go. In this case i beleive privledges are fair because her husband is working a dangerous job to help others. In other cases like famous people and rich people is unfair because their rich and famous they get privledges.
I have special privileges in some train stations because my cousin is a MTA worker. All i have to say is that im going see her.

Not really. One should get to where ever he wants to go based on the work and effort that is put in.Getting there with help doesn't show that you worked for it. You were under special conditions. Besides it should hurt your thoughts.

I don't know anyone personally, but I know from other people. In the business world, there are some places where skill has no importance (at least not much). Jobs are based on who you know and what connections you have with them. If you have a friend in a high position, then you have an automatic placement in that field. (If the boss is like that.) If you have an enemy in a high place...well you are automatically blacklisted before you even look for a job...or even graduate school. The business industry is a rough place to work; one wrong step can throw you out and leave you there. But if you're lucky... or just not unlucky...then you might have a fair chance in the working life.
i know a couple of people who recieve special privelages. One of those is Mackenzie.LOL. People say i do because of my role in the school. I disagree. Some other people do and that isnt fair.
