Gender Disparities In The Military

I find the author’s rationale convincing because there is no other way to make the bill into law unless the representatives are educated about people like Maria who are about to be deported in a year since the bill is not yet law. The representatives that make the bills into law should without the inclusion of the CIR since it is delaying the passing into law of the dream act. The use of committees to discuss the act slows down the process and the bill will hardly get to the representatives. Educating the representatives about the statistics of the illegal students that is 65000 will make them more aware and conscious of how important it is to pass the bill into law faster because the fate of students like Maria depends on it not to be deported. The process of such illegal immigrants to get back into the country could take long and is sometimes impossible yet such students can give back more to the American society which they have grown up in.

Quindlen identifies the problem of gender disparity in the military.

The number of women serving in the military is lower as considered to the number of men and in case of a military crisis in the country, only women are expected to register for the war. Back in the day women were expected to stay at home, get married and raise children. This has changed over time, and the women are registering to join the military more. The solution to gap the gender disparity lies in both the male, and female genders. The women should enroll for the military positions more and the men should stop seeing women as a hindrance for them. There have been successive wars with women involved in the combat military. The women are even in charge of military crafts on their own. The perception of the men that women will make them lose concentration should be

changed.
Gladwell argues that punishment should be addressed according to the person that did the crime and not according to the crime they did. I agree with Gladwell because each individual has a different reason for going against the law. In the case of Robert Oppenheim where he would have poisoned his tutor, the student was only punished through probation. Many would see is as lenient but the student was going through a stressful time, and it was his first time to commit such a crime. The student had a bright future and taking him before a judge who would give him a sentence would be cutting the dreams of a student who had potential to impact on a community. There is also a study in Tennessee that shows zero tolerance programs that were adopted increased frequency of the targets. The idea that going against the rules would not sink in because the schools had teenagers.
