ethical issue to discuss, but one that is not a
specific topic addressed in our text (thus, gun
control or product liability would not be
possible choices). Some examples are given below,
but it is recommended that you choose to write on
a topic you have already encountered or you have
thought about previously

ethical theory you believe provides the best
support for your view.
