Blog Entry 12

     I have learned quite a few things this week about what everyone is doing for their Research Paper. One thing i saw from reading blog posts is that everyone didn't chose a topic because it was easy to write about, it was because they had interest on that particular topic. I also learned that everyone is enjoying their research and making use of all resources and not just the internet. I've seen people say they'll be referencing from books and magazines and their own physical research. Below is a paragraph i wrote to further add to my draft, it talks about how dangerous working on a factory farm is .

      Working on a factory farm is arguably the most dangerous and demanding jobs in the United States. Every day that the workers go to work they put their health at risk. There 800,000 people going to work on these farms daily, putting their health on line for a pennies worth of a salary compared to the profits their employers make. The workers inhale harmful gases, which they should never be exposed to, on a daily basis. They also experience repetitive stress injuries because they perform the same tasks for a full shift, thus stressing the muscles they are using constantly. The price the workers have to pay for working in those conditions is unfathomable. They experience long-lasting aches, respiratory disorders, cardiovascular complications, and sadly premature death.
