Here's the text:
Raise the Minimum Wage to $9.50 an Hour by 2011: Barack Obama and Joe Biden
believe that people who work full-time should not live in poverty. Even
though the minimum wage will rise to $7.25 an hour by 2009, the minimum
wage's real purchasing power will still be below what it was in 1968.
President Obama will further raise the minimum wage to $9.50 an hour by
2011, index it to inflation and increase the Earned Income Tax Credit to
make sure that full-time workers can earn a living wage that allows them to
raise their families and pay for basic needs such as food, transportation,
and housing -- things so many people take for granted.

So how does everyone feel about the essays? I honestly am doubting myself now after hearing everyone else read their intro and conclusion. They were pretty good.
My confidence is high now that it is finished, but honestly I was close to stumped on the topic. I enjoyed picking out the point displacement on the rubric though, pretty neat idea.
Yeah I think there were some pretty good essays. I ended up rewriting mine at the end after the rubric. The grading system scares me a little but I'm proud of my paper reguardless because I worked hard.
im not sure if my counter arguement is strong enough. I am also worried that my intro / conclusion didnt match up. Mr. P was quite through most of it.
