I. Be sure to use Toulmin's model:
i. Claim - Make an assertion about the theory
ii. Grounds - Explain a specific communication example from your life

II. Contrary to conventional wisdom, a recent University of Miami study of more than 2,000 people in the United States found that people with tattoos were no less likely to be employed than their uninked counterparts, and that average earnings were the same for both groups. In fact, tattooed men were slightly more likely to have jobs than other men. What are your attitudes about tattoos? Do you think there should be a link between having a tattoo and employment opportunities? Do you think the theme of the tattoo or the nature of the profession should be taken into consideration?
