lowering the age for alcohol, raising the driving age, changing DNA (look up GATTACA, the movie), if turnitin.com is against students' rights, starting school later because teens have lack of sleep

I have done many papers on controversial issues. A few I have done with many aspects of the topic and lots of information are Global Warming, Paying College Athletes, Gun Control, The Legalization of Marijuana, or if uniforms or no dress code should be instated in schools. I have done lots of studying on all sides of these issues and I recommend going to the library and utilizing the librarian, reading encyclopedia, or using a reliable internet source (not wikipedia). Hope I was helpful

How about gun control, profanity, or Truman's decision to drop the atomic bomb?
--
Gun control: Should the U.S. government ban guns from private citizens?
One view:
We should ban guns from private citizens because it would reduce the death rate in the U.S.
Another view:
We should not ban guns from private citizens because that is a violation of the U.S. Constitution. And how else are we supposed to protect ourselves?
--
Profanity: Should the U.S. government ban profanity on cable?
One view: Yes, the U.S. government should ban profanity on cable. We are raising the next generation crudely if we do not.
Another view: No, the U.S. government should not ban profanity on cable. That's a violation of the 1st Amendment in the Constitution.

Truman and the Atomic Bomb: Should Truman have dropped the atomic bomb on Japan?

There are 3 views on that topic, so you could have 1 paragraph on each of the views, and pick 1 view and explain why.

You need to specify what subject the paper is for. If it's a literature paper, write about the Trojan War... it's a 10 year war, lots of subplots, lots to talk about. If it's a scientific paper, write about hospital acquired pneumonia.

Stem cell research, smoking, genetic testing, censorship, animal rights, homosexuality, gun control, affirmative action, government vs religion, immigration, global warming, prayer in schools, pledge of allegiance, legalization of marijuana, euthanasia and patient-assisted suicide.
The possibilities are endless

i think the sweatshops in China (what you were talking about the child labor) is a good idea, because buisnesses are for it because its cheap for them, and a lot of people are against it because its sad.
also, i think illegal immigration would be a good one, because some people think that it helps our economy (because they work for way cheaper than a citizen would), and other people are mad because they don't pay taxes and our tax dollars pay for them.
i hope these ideas work for you.
email me if you need help (:
