THESIS, MAJOR POINTS, and PLAN 4

In today's society, the labor laws should be similar around the world. Some countries take advantage of their employees because they are trying to support themselves and family. Even though using foreign companies saves the U.S. money, should the U.S. Government prohibit companies from outsourcing jobs to people in foreign countries that do not have unions or fair labor laws? The reason why I ask that is that we are all consumers that have to deal with fair labor laws in the U.S. on a day to day basis. The U.S. Government should prohibit companies from taking advantage of foreign companies labor laws because no one is standing up for their rights, they are underpaid, and they are abusing the foreign employees.

My target audience would branch out in many ways but includes almost everyone. The age range would be from fifteen and up. Teenagers are starting their first job at that age. Also, most of them know where the product is made. I will want to make sure that I include all races because the U.S. hold all cultures. The government will play a significant role and target to address the issue. Even though we all vote on things the government makes the ultimate decision.

I want to discuss the business we do with China and the work laws they have. Is it worth us using their services to save money for our products? Why can't we use other business in China that treats their employee's better or other sources? The central question is Should the U.S. Government prohibit companies from outsourcing jobs to people in foreign countries that do not have unions and fair labor laws? Can we help them come up with better work and labor laws so they may have a better work environment that will not abuse them? Even though it saves us money, how can we co-exist without losing jobs in the U.S?

While gathering all the information I need I will take each question and do proper research. I will take each issue and find a few website that may obtain data and write it out. After I have seen all information, I will make sure I make a note of every site that I have retrieved it from so that I may adequately cite it. This information will help me gather on how I should start my introduction. From there I will begin my body of the paper, and the concluded my work.
