This method is unsafe because of two reasons. First, the person conducting the experiment is biased as they are affiliated with the subject of the experiment. Second, GPA does not inherently equal graduation rate. You can graduate university with a low GPA unless you fail a lot.

Do you think it's possible to create a method of capital punishment that would actually deter people from committing murder? Wou
Alex777 [14]
<h3>Creating a method of capital punishment that would actually deter people from committing murder.</h3>

Explanation:

Numerous studies have shown that imposing capital punishment or harsh punishments does not actually deter people from committing crimes. Studies have shown that states imposing such punishments still have high criminal rate than those states that do not.

Televising executions would only create a lobby for more controversies and futile discussions on the morality of capital punishment. Human rights activists strongly disagree of commercializing such events on grounds of human moral rights. They also believe that a state does not have the right to execute an individual.

It is believed that capital punishments are imposed very rarely and only to those individuals who have committed heinous crimes. However, if we look into past incidences, the verdict has been used unfairly and partially. The power to impose such verdict also raises the question on the sovereign authority of a state by many critics. Critics argue that states should not have to right to determine the lives of the people.

Compare and contrast the views of the federalists party and the democratic republican party
Luden [163]

The Federalist Party was in service between 1798 and 1801, and the Democratic-Republican Party was in service between 1792 and 1798.

The Federalist Party were proponents of a strong, centralized national government and a strong executive branch. Federalists did not support a Bill of Rights, supported an economy based on agriculture, believed that the Constitution was open to interpretation, and asserted that the government had the right to adopt additional powers. In foreign policy, Federalists sided with the British and opposed the French Revolution. Federalists supported Alexander Hamilton.

The Democratic-Republican Party were in support of a weak, centralized government fearing that a strong central government would lead to tyranny. The DR Party supported the Bill of Rights to supplement the Constitution in order to support the people. They believed the Constitution was a strict document that limited the federal government's ability to adopt additional powers.  The DRP often aligned itself with France and admired the French's Revolution.
