Pre-writing Blog #3

I have decided to use prompt number two. This is a much more interesting subject to me, and the answer is obvious after reading the fast food nation chapters. I would like to show other people my view of it, for many don't realize how bad it is for the people that provide the food for fast food. I didn't see it myself until I read the fast food nation chapters. I should be able to use many of the readings from fast food nation to back up what Standing Bear says in his essay, especially the rancher that committed suicide. As I've understood it, the Problem/Solution essay style is what it sounds like. You bring up a problem, define it, prove it’s a problem, show a way to fix it, then back up why that is the best way to fix it. I could be mistaken though; I haven't finished reading the two papers in the Unit Three Lectures. I think the best way to engage my audience is to show how bad the conditions are for these people, the ranchers, the potato farmers, and the chicken breeders. I know it’s just as bad for the cows and chickens, but that usually isn't as effective on most people, while other people suffering can strike a nerve.

I didn't really have many memories that I associated with fast food until recently. Now, I think of my six dollar dog that I made, and cleaning up when someone stole the trash bag out of the garbage and people still threw stuff in that trash...
